I can take a loss to a better team but that just wasn’t the case in this series. The Sox lost, the A’s didn’t win. And that hurts.

Pitching will be the story but this offense has come up very small in big situations....2 games in a row. Can’t win like that.

I can take getting beat by good hitting but this is flat out mental weakness by our pitching. The moment is too big for these guys and they are shrinking. Very disheartening

Anything else want to go wrong? And now have mccann on 2nd as a very important runner

Well this bullpen game is only going to get scarier. I really don’t want to see Cease or whoever else shouldn’t be in a playoff game

Would like to just throw it out there for no one to see/hear/care...but it is complete and utter horse shit that this entire series was played in the middle of the day on work days. Way to go MLB, put the young and exciting team on at a time most people can’t watch. Morons

I say we just hit the hell out of the ball so we don’t have to worry about who/how many pitchers to use. Get out to an early lead and let Dunning go 5

Had to follow the game day tracker while at work...get home and turned the game and within 10 mins there was a runner on 1st and 3rd with no outs. Turned it off and walked away lol. Had to go old school and listen to the radio call the rest of the way, couldn’t be the jinx

Still can’t believe they are playing these games in the middle of the day and for cable subscription only. Pretty infuriating to not be able to watch my team in the playoffs after 12 years of suffering.

Or we could get a good manager...

Wait now bummer is up and available???? Ricky is trying to lose. There’s literally no other explanation. No human could be that stupid

Absolute joke. Worst manager in the game

Insanity to put Rodon in this situation. This team is fighting against their own manager

Just leave him in at this point. No way you put Rodon in this situation

Jeez Eloy...can he do anything without hurting himself? Hopefully only a tweak and not a full blown sprain

Yeah you’d have to be a real pos to look at his face and still doubt that there’s something not right with him. Felt bad for the kid just looking at him, can’t imagine what he feels like every night

Wow guess Yoan really didn’t recover. Guy looks like he just got done a marathon...and not just tired, physically beat up from running around the bases.

If Yoan can get back to even 3/4 of what he was last year it will make a world of difference

Don’t care what anyone says. Major leaguers that can’t bunt is pathetic. Especially in Dyson’s case since he can’t hit either

How does our coaching staff not know this guy obliterates lefties? Of all times NOT to use Cordero

What evidence did they see? And that quick????

Ricky is going to tax the important arms on this staff to win this 1 game. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a fairly important game, but I’d rather have arms feeling good in the playoffs

You’re telling me you honestly don’t think he made the call? You think managers get ejected and just go take a shower?

I still say they should have let Santana beat us with 2 outs. I know it’s not conventional, but there’s no way Ramirez wasn’t going to kill us there. Santana has been terrible vs RH pitching all year. .602 OPS

How did that cost us the game?
