Jackson and Avila have done well defenisvely so you can justify thier presence in the lineup. Avi is a DH who cant hit... BAD.

Frazier K Melky BB Lawrie BB Avi K Navarro hard hit out. BOOK IT.

Half of me admires the realist approach, Robin knows the likelihood of Sox runs is near 0%. OTOH he's the manager... he's the one who should believe that his team will get it done in a 1 run game with 6 outs left.

Well that could have been much worse.

What are you thinking? Us fans are allowed to give up on this game but as the manager Robin has to at least try! It's only one run!

The 3-4 in the lineup is just as culpable in the lack of offense as Garcia. Nobody wants to say mean things about Frazier or Abreu though.

Let's see what Kevan Smith has got? Him and Coats are the only two guys hitting at all for Charlotte.

You cannot have your hottest 2 hitters followed by an automatic out. If Avi has to play for some reason he needs to be put somewhere else in the lineup.

This is hardly a worthwhile complaint.

Well he's starting whack it around.... hopefully this is the beginning of the end of the slump.

Rollins froze the ump

I dont think Jackson is the answer in CF. Problem is I cant see them moving Eaton back over with how great he's been in right.

Rodon with command is a very good pitcher.

I love our defense.

Austin Jackson needs to spend some "time in the weight room" with Melky Cabrera. He could use a little "strength training"...

MLB.tv is having a serious spaz.

I feel like the Sox could beat the world after that display last night.. hope they keep the momentum going.

This was a very, very good trade.

The walks are a promising sign.

Defense wins championships.

Automatic EJECTION

Eaton runs down a sharply hit ball to right. Catches runner at 1st Fielder got between 3rd and home Runner also caught between 2nd and 3rd Saladino goes after Fielder on foot Run down leads to out.

OK I believe now. This is not the same old Sox. TEAM DEFENSE
