Every ball the Sox have hit this inning have been harder than 99 MPH

Baez improves their defense a ton.

He changes it based on who he faces. Against lefties he closes his stance. Against righties, he's much more open.

Eloy got robbed

I love Moncada's bat drop too. He and Yaz have really pretty swings when they get their pitch.

FWIW, Robert hit his ball harder than that at a similar launch angle and it went 70 feet shorter. It might have been a top spin thing.

YAZ!

I wouldn't pitch him today. It's the 2nd game of the year. You can't over exert him this early in the year.

That's a ball...

Cease looks done for the day. But then again, Grossman has seen Cease well all day.

Tigers fans would totally boo a device malfunctioning.

Ump is squeezing Cease now

Can we please get that smug fucker Haase out?

It doesn't expand to fastballs at their face though.

If we don't score...the bullpen isn't gonna hold this lead. Hendriks and Bummer are probably both unavailable. Graveman only threw 20 pitches so maybe you can throw him out there again.

He and Burger both expanded their zones a lot.

We sucked at hitting with a guy on third last year and we're bad at it again.

Cease has gotten that call a few times. We just suck at getting guys in from 3rd base.

I like that kind of energy

Came back from 3-0 to get Candelario

With how hard he hits the ball, if he starts elevating the ball more, he's easily a 50 home run hitter.

And we thought the injuries were bad last year... At least the injuries this year haven't been extremely severe outside of Crochet.

It sure looks like we're gonna pull a 2021 Minnesota. They got ravaged by injuries last year.

I thought Pollock looked awkward running yesterday. We knew he was injury prone, I just didn't think he'd get hurt in game 2.

That should have been gone. 104 off the bat and only went 330 feet. Had a good launch angle too.
