So who the hell closes this out?? I swear to God if they trot out Clippard..

 

Swarzak will stay in

Why are Melky and Yoan hitting righty against Duensing when his splits are much better against righties?

Question: better pitcher Leury Garcia or Tyler Clippard?

So Davidson's homerun was an estimated 476 feet, which would be the 6th longest homerun of the season. And that was with the wind blowing in, that's crazy.

I'm excited to check this out.

Oof.

Ouch. 4 ks for Yoan

Yikes Moncada. You weren't swinging at that your first two games here. Let's not start free swinging.

Moancada looked lost up there vs. the breaking stuff.

Yep.

We knew this was going to happen with Moncada, better to let him figure out major league breaking stuff in counts and games that actually matter. He has a terrific eye and will adjust to this stuff here. Not gonna see the same pitches in AAA

Hopefully the stage got him a bit and he'll calm down tomorrow.

Very rough game for Yoan today. Looked bad up at the plate and bobbled a couple out in the field.

He actually got kind of hosed on the third strike of the second strikeout...I thought it was outside.

I would have pulled Swarzak. No career saves. A ninth inning freak out can hurt his value. 39 pitches Friday, 25 yesterday.

he also got kind of hosed when he was asked to bunt.

Agreed, it was outside on the strikecast too

Still hitting 94-96 though. I would usually agree, but with the way our bullpen has looked, might as well live and die with your best reliever.

Crap.

Anderson..

 

Loses perfect game for Gonzalez

Loses 1st career save for Swarzak?

Not a banner day for our 2B-SS combo of the future.

 

We need to hire or appoint a fielding specialist that should be tagged with that tandem working on things. Like Ron Washingtons role with the A's.

 

 

ooo boy. Think he lost his control.

Sox don't value defense enough. It bites them every time.

Atta boy Swarzak!!

Interesting at bat to follow on game day. You don't see three pretty strikey strikes get looked at to lose the game lol
