Damn nice play on what looked like a base hit

I like Sosa

See I was right. Before the ASB. Guessing Sosa and Vargas see time at first.

Vaughn better be gone before the ASB.

Well, the important thing is Vaughn had two singles.

Yup, needed another run or two.

What the HELL was that Taylor

Thaiss had a pitch to hit there.

Vargas was sitting on offspeed that at-bat. Not his best AB.

Meidroth is just a smart hitter. We haven't had one of those in a long time.

Vaughn loves swinging at high fastballs with two strikes.

Raleigh stronger from the right side so put in a lefty. Perfect.

I'll be just fine if I end up wrong about Sosa

Great to see a guy who tore up the Dominican Summer League & Arizona carry it on into full season ball.

Vaughn needs to stop hitting so many low liners and ground balls. Those are the most likely balls to be caught no matter how hard they're hit.

That horseshoe will fall out of their asses eventually.

You knew once the Sox couldn’t score last half inning the Cubs were gonna put some runs up. Would be nice to play actual defense and prevent the big inning though. Cannon pitched well enough to win.

Swing at s%*# in the dirt and take a borderline pitch for strike 3. Good job Sosa.

The Chicago Vargases

Have a game, Meidroth

Yeah you’re right. You’re not a monster

Andrew Vaughn is your fault

Without Vargas today it'd be a shutout

Both. 2nd and 3rd 0 out, 1st and 3rd 1 out. Both times Smith got a weak grounder - first one Vaughn only had a shot with a perfect throw to home (it wasn't perfect). He should've taken the out at 1st. The second one was a double play ball even with the infield in, but the SS went home with it. Perfect throw and the runner would have easily been out, but Thaiss dropped the ball. Then the lineup turned over to PCA, Tucker and Suzuki with Smith laboring after a ton of extra pitches.

Yes
