The failure to sign a 2nd baseman and a right fielder has all but reared it's ugly head in this ballgame.

And that is why you don't pull Engel out of the ballgame.

Falling behind in the count over and over and over.

And yet again fall behind first pitch.

Doesn't matter. If they did, the ball would have found the vacated spot anyways. All the luck is going the Astros' way right now.

Every inning. Every inning Houston's offense has put pressure on. None of it has been easy

Such bullshit.

Sox keep falling behind with Houston having men on base.

Well, if they can hold them here, I like the Sox chances of winning. If not...it's going to be real tough to come back.

All of Houston's groundballs are finding holes.

Well it worked. 5-8.

Great sequencing there from Bummer. Great pitches too.

5-7 against Bummer..yikes.

Altuve gonna steal here.

I really hope a ball like that is not hit out to Leury and we regret pulling Engel.

So effing close

I wouldn't unless it's 3-2. Not with Maldonado's arm.

Someone tell the Sox they are not at a strip club pls and thx

Here's our RBI guy. Can he get us some more?

Cmon Robert. Just send one over the wall/

Would have rather seen Engel try and bunt and keep his defense in the outfield.

Yeah that ain't gettin it done.

Cesar in for Engel? Must be sending Leury to RF next inning. Hopefully missing Engel's D doesn't hurt us.

Uh, Leury, that's baseball-card worthy right there. What a turn.

BEAUTIFUL
