Here comes squeeze

Great sac bunt by Engel. Our three rookies did good

Yolmer overmatched

Tim overmatched on 100 mph fastballs and we go to bottom of the 9th 2-2

Get the impression Hawk hates Anderson. Oh well, not the first guy dominated by Kimbrel

I know guys on here don't like the bunt but it's important that we learn how to excecute bunts to keep opposing defenses aware that we can get them down. For years the bunt skill wasn't used by Robin to appease the metrics people, but what that did was it made the defense not honor it--and therefore defend us easier. I think once you see us PROVE that we CAN bunt...the rate of the attempts will drop dramatically. Good teams are good in all areas of the game--having the tool in your box does no good until you can prove you can use it whenever you need it. We're truly at ground zero in relearning the game!

He's been on this choking up, short bat kick as of late, and I think he's aiming those comments at TA.

That was a horrible pitch for Abreu to swing on.

Tyler Clippard in for his 2ND Inning of relief. Let's see what he's made of

Also very much in favor of the 26th man/Inactive roster spot

Regardless of what happens in this game, I still wish we would have traded Clippard for a couple more top 100 prospects

Didn't look very good his first few games with us but has been pretty sharp in the last four or so

Great game all around for Yoan, three straight good at bats.

God I love Yoan's patience...sooo good and refreshing. Can't wait till Robert and Yoan are batting 1-2 on the next contending sox team.

I have literally zero worries about Moncada. It's hard to teach that crap.

Delmonico is having a hell of a series.

Yoan and Nicky trying to help us win this one late!

I like Delmonico

Just swing. Jesus.

Rally!

This is special. Team is amazing fundamentally

I hate Delmonico

I hate Delmonico

 

 

Why? How can you hate a guy who's playing so well?

Do the Sox really want Renteria in charge of this team? Fundamentals are horrible and he is the manager. Just get rid of him. If he wants to live and die with the bunt, then let him expire in the baseball sense of the word.

This should be quick. I doubt Bummer can get through this half inning.
