July 25, 20187 yr Rodon’s pitching, Soria’s pitching, Moncada’s ABs, Anderson’s defense, Abreu’s ABs, Yolmer’s heads up play in the 6th, Delmonico coming through in the clutch. Lots of good moments
July 25, 20187 yr 30 minutes ago, SoxAce said: Hell of a rebuild game, especially from Moncada. I was at the game with my daughter trying to get as much time with her before she moves to Petaluma and told her I felt Moncada would hit a HR today, My first thought was Scioscia should've opened the inning with a lefty. He didn't and Moncada made them pay. Also wondered why Rodon was replaced by Minaya . Thought the Sox might've made a trade. Really good game to attend.
July 25, 20187 yr Well done guys , time zones over there are catching me out, I’m hoping the next game goes to the 14th innings so I can watch the last few , with a Sox win of course. ?

I really hoped it would be a no hitter.
July 25, 20187 yr For all the hate Moncada has been receiving over the year from both outside media and many on the boards/Twitter I really like his mental approach. He had a line the other day where he said he doesn't care if he strikes out 300 times this year, it's all about approach and growth. I think there's really something to be said about that. He's not freaking out with the K's, but understands he has to work on them. As he gets better and gets more respect from umpires a lot of these called third strikes might be walks. Also could you imagine if they did away with umpires and went to a computer system? It's not inconceivable - and if it happens he becomes almost even more valuable instantly
