WOW is McGuire bad.

Sheets smashed that ball but right at the CF. Let's see how they can't score with 1st and 3rd 1 out.

Abreu almost missed the damn bag on the way back to second after the single by Yaz.

Bad hop and bad play by Burger, magnified by 10x because the offense can't do anything.

Cease looks like he might be out of gas.

Wasting this start by Cease is criminal.

They can't score so they press and try to settle for one.

67 pitches through 6 2/3 for Stroman, who has been pretty mediocre this year. Brilliant.

No wait getting throw out at third on a bunt to the pitcher

Bunt foul out ground ball to 3B fly out

Might be small sample size, but something is sticking out to me. Moncada was hitting well in AAA during his rehab, then came up and was 2019 Moncada for a bit, then struggled. Burger struggled, went down, started hitting and has been pretty good on his return. Obviously it's way harder in the majors than AAA, but guys coming to the MLB club and all struggling is baffling.

Sox able to run on these guys pretty easily. If they could get more than one runner on every 4 innings that might mean something.

Sheets with a single. How about some extra base hits?

Seriously he was fielding a pretty routine ground ball. What the fuck is up with this team's training staff?

Oh good he's being helped off the field because he can't walk under his own power

Oh good TA is hurt now

Went inside to grab a drink and the inning is over already.

Dylan has good enough stuff to completely miss his spots and still get strikeouts.

It would be one thing if they were having good at-bats, taking pitches, hitting things hard. They're doing the opposite. Really hard to watch, and really hard to imagine how a team that was pretty disciplined for most of the past two years would fall apart for 40+ games like this.

Do that in later innings when 1 run means something. Don't do that in the first inning with 0 outs in a scoreless game.

This team has such shitty at-bats man. Unreal.

Sheets popping everything up

He was trying to do that and it looks like it threw him off.

Nice play on the short hop by Burger

Stroman missing all his spots, so of course he has like a 12 pitch fairly easy inning.
