Glad the call didn't come back to bite us. Let's not GIDP, Engel

FUCK OFF, why would you fucking give him that call?

Sox are getting brutalized with balls and strikes this season, and it is getting infuriating. 

dude behind the plate is macking.

Jesus Engel. lol

That was one of the least competitive at bats you will see by a non-pitcher 

Damnit... Moncada to hit right handed. 

Tilson would've singled.

Now would be a great time for Moncada to hit his first HR from the right side of the plate.

Yeah, that was bad -- even for Engel.

He might as well be a pitcher. I swear I haven't seen an uglier swing

I'd kill for that.

BOOOO. 

 

got a great pitch to hit and missed it.  

Lol... so typical

Can we please stop batting Moncada right handed in any situation

Massive hanger, too bad he's a non-factor batting righty 

I strongly agree that 65 ABs is enough of a sample to give up on someone switch hitting

They're going to have a decision to make in the next year or so. Seems pretty obvious he should just bat lefty.

It's not just the results, it's the way he looks. After Engel, his righty swing is probably the ugliest on the team.

What's with all the foul balls tonight?

Great at bat for Yolmer!

YOLMER

Yolmer shows his value for a contending team there. Nice base hit.

Really wish it was Moncada who got that hit, but I'm not complaining.

He does look worse from the right side, but I also believe he looks better than the numbers suggest. He's had some great contact from the right side this year that hasn't resulted in hits. I personally am not yet convinced that he'd be any better as a LH vs LHP. I'd want to give him until at least the 2019 ASB as a switch hitter, just to see what he can do with 250-300 PAs as a righty
