  1. That was horrific. Damn it. God damnit.
  2. " Jerry Narron isn't necessarily a spry chicken at 65 years old, young in Tony's orbit but a generation removed from A. J. Hinch and his peers. One of several areas the Sox would definitely improve on would be defensive shifting. Hinch's Tigers are 4th in baseball, Sox 27th from last" ========== There are challenges on plays that appear to be justified on broadcast replay that are then not upheld on review. I don't have time to look for a link because I have to work today but the reality is that close plays cannot always be determined by video replay. AJ Hinch in charge of a video system? LOL. He should have been banned from baseball for cheating and has no business managing a major league team now, none.
  3. Yes, Vaughn hit a solo home run. Zavala hit a two run home run in the series... so what? This post is about runners left on base. Pooled ignorance on Soxtalk continues. Just attack a poster instead of responding to the thread.
  4. Vaughn - 8 Left on Base in the two losses to the Yankees. Somebody other than Eloy, Abreu or TA has to get it done when it's crunch time.
  5. Look at how many LOBs in the game yesterday and today....and which hitters had them.
  6. edited to say.. Throw JFG a fastball ..LOL@!
  7. Vaughn, another incredible eye popping catch!
  8. TA stated that he got the pitch he was looking for. He sure did. Watching live on TV, the crack of the bat milliseconds before he dropped it foretold the result. I wonder what that sounded like for those in the stands. So I will watch it again, and listen again. Wish I was there but goin' tonight. They can have other games at that field, but they would lack the significance that this one had, and I doubt Kostner would want to do that again and I would not blame him. I am sure Cubs and their fans will run there for a game next year but it just won't be the same. Perhaps MLB could designate a week during the season where major league teams play games at Minor league stadiums like Charlotte where, in many cases,there are better facilities, ease of access, etc.
  9. good night. great game guys
  10. always pick pick pick until you get a reaction..
  11. IMHO....Sox should make those retro uniforms the Sunday uniform and drop the 1983 disco era uniform. The only thing I would change is that I would put that awesome Sox logo on the hat.
  12. Stop stalking my posts and criticizing me at every turn.
  13. Not sure,, I never saw announcers fawn over Carlos Quentin, and he was pretty damn good.
  14. Nobody here hates Vaughn bud.
  15. Stone keeps suking Vaughn's dik.
  16. Hospitalized or fatal vaccine breakthrough cases reported to CDC as of August 2, 2021 - 7,525 Total number of fully vaccinated - as of August 2 - 164 Million 7,525 / 164,000,000 = .000045 chances of hospitalization and death among fully vaccinated. 74% of that number (5557) were over 65 years old. All statistics above from the CDC website on breakthrough cases: https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/covid-19/health-departments/breakthrough-cases.html No team needs a Covid outbreak or having to quarantine key players, especially a team in the play-off race like the Yankees. Anthony Rizzo was diagnosed with Covid (although he was not vaccinated) and is in quarantine. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/31987292/anthony-rizzo-latest-new-york-yankees-player-test-positive-covid-1 "Rizzo tested positive after Saturday's game, in which he went 0-for-4 in the Yankees' 5-4 victory over Seattle Mariners. Rizzo joins catcher Gary Sanchez and starting pitchers Gerrit Cole and Jordan Montgomery as Yankees players to recently test positive for the virus. Cole tested positive Monday, Montgomery tested positive Tuesday and Sanchez was placed on the COVID-19 list Thursday. Boone said Cole, Montgomery and Sanchez are feeling better. The outbreak occurred after the Yankees returned from playing six games against the Tampa Bay Rays and Miami Marlins in Florida, where COVID-19 cases are surging. Rizzo made his debut with the Yankees on July 30 at Miami. "I think a lot came out of Florida where we were in this wave of them,'' Boone said. "It's a little of you don't know when and where it's spreading.'' At least 85% of New York's players are vaccinated, resulting in a loosening of restrictions, but the Yankees still have been hit hard and Boone said the team will hold conversations about being cautious on its upcoming six-game road trip."
  17. Read what was actually written, not what you think was written,.
  18. Covid infections appear to have gained momentum in certain areas of the country, particularly among the un-vaccinated. I suspect several of the so-called "break-through" cases are bulsh1t.. Some might be the result of false positive tests, flu symptoms erroneously reported as break through covid nfections, or positive tests for the virus where there are few if any symptoms for the previously vaccinated. Benetti has to remain in quarantine for a while because a Covid outbreak is the last thing the sox need right now
  19. Nobody said that. Some dude said it was "cute" to think that Eloy doesn't have to play where they make him play . I responded that Eloy cannot be forced to DH against his will. Frankly the way he hits the ball, Eloy can play wherever he wants as far as I am concerned. He is by far, the best and most clutch hitter on the team.
  20. Yeah some maybe did not realize Sheets is hitting for a low BA because he has not had that many at-bats and he has hit into some tough luck including several line drives hit into the shift. I am not sure that was the primary reason he was sent down though. It may have been done to avoid DFAing Lamb in order to open a roster spot.
  21. Parental misbehavior at their kid's games is an entirely different issue ( than sexual abuse) and I am afraid it is not going away any time soon. Anyone here try to umpire a Little League game? You know.
  22. That was a fun win but realistically, the Cubs' starting pitcher was throwing batting practice and their lineup might be the worst in the majors. The Cubs want to tank the season to obtain the highest position they can in next year's Draft. We were in that position not long ago.
