So what is Jose looking to hit if its not a fastball down the middle? Pressing much?

Team is just good enough to lose yet again. Another terrible loss

Ok, learn from out mistakes and move on to the next game.

Even though Abreu has been hot lately, he has a slider speed bat and I think he was looking for one.

He’s never been Mr. Clutch, you should know that by now 

Took there foot off the gas and got beat. Orioles are the new royals

Can't believe the best they can do is tie the series at 3 a piece with the worst team in the league. Man.

Disappointing game.

I think the Orioles took 2 out of 3 from the Yankees and Red Sox each on the road IIRC. Baseball is just a weird game.

Unfortunately when playing the Orioles, we look like the worst team in the league.

He's had a couple big hits recently, but yeah it always seems that when it comes down to the wire he folds under pressure. Not sure he would do well in a playoff series..

I need one ‚mental midget’ for my soxtalk gamethread bingo and we‘re getting pretty close. ?

 

 

Maybe the most disappointing loss of the season. A 4-0 lead, against the worst team in the AL, with your "Ace" on the mound. 

I'm thinking its time someone tells Carlos Rodon's wife to keep her mouth shut on Twitter, because your husband's pitching is bad enough. He is way to inconsistent to get any benefit of the doubt. I'm hoping someone is looking for a #4 or #5 starter in July and we can attempt to right this wrong. 

Hang this one on ACE Rodon.    Just another brutal outing and basically burned half the pen.

Feels like a doesn't it. Hopefully they can win the second one and it won't be too bad.

The Sox haven’t been able to beat the orioles for years it’s honestly fascinating

They beat them on Monday, and once last week. 

We can't rely on the same relievers to shut a team down every game, especially middle relievers and set-up guys.  Maybe the Sox can bolster the bullpen with a few upgrades.  Similarly, we can't rely on the same guys to get two or three hits and put us over the top every game.  We need Eloy back and Robert to come up with him.  That might change the offensive dynamic in close games like this.

LMFAO. Nice. 

3.2 innings for a starter is not good news for a bullpen especially in a double header.

Every time I think this team is taking a step forward, they take 2 or 3 steps backward. So annoying.

Over the last decade( I think, could be less) there isn’t a team the Sox have a worse win percentage against.

Well they’re still not good. So that’s going to happen. But they are better.
