Great battle through adversity there.

119 baa 3rd time through a lineup for Reynaldo loudly argues SCREW the STATNIKS

What an absolutely stellar six innings from Lopez. Plus I think he was getting squeezed by the umpire 

Maybe we can actually get our best pitcher a 2nd win, finally. lol

As of today it is probably Hector Santiago who will be the first one out of the rotation.  That might change if Giolito goes back down the toilet again today, but the Sox seem to want him to stick here.

The forthcoming move will be interesting 

Oh that was a meatball, damn.  Beat it into the dirt.

It'll be Santiago for Rodon, probably, and then Giolito for Kopech. Maybe Covey instead if he falls back to Earth by the time they deem Kopech ready 

Bat looks like a toothpick in palkas hands

Palka swung on 3 pitches outside the strike zone.

His hands are moving towards the plate really early.  Hard to hold back on pitches with his swing.

Ball is not flying at all today.  That ball Moncada hit died and so did that ball.

Really risky having Lopez out there right now. That's back to back "just missed" balls

Let him pitch. Give him that confidence

Yea he's on fumes but just needs to make one more good ptich.

Lol, luckiest inning ever but I'll take it. Great outing 

Awesome, awesome game so far

Great outing for Lopez!

God Benetti is awful. 

Nice play Tilson.  Good job Lopez.   Now go get some ice on that arm.

Yeah, but you're going to have to stretch some things out to the limit in doubleheaders when you don't have a good/deep pen. If you have a starter who is rolling, let him roll for all he's worth. IMO

There's worse. His nomenclature annoys me sometimes, but overall... he's serviceable at the job.

Bingo.

awful hitting conditions now, should help the Sox close this one out.   Been a well played game so far, nice and crisp, let's keep it going.

Anderson has gone back in the dumpster... 

His flashes of brilliance are always so promising. Such a roller coaster ride.
