Didn't the Sox do this vs Bubic last time? Got 2 early and then nothing?

Way too quick.

Yup.  Aug 30.  Bubic gave up 2 early.  Robert walked it off in the 10th. 

He Gone

Nice quick inning

Way more wasted opportunities last time. Not sure if our approaches are bad or we are just unlucky rn or Bubich is dealing but it is a different feel - I believe since the first inning we have only had the TA BB

Needed that quick inning to let him get to the 6th

McCann rocket off the 3B goes for a double!  Let’s go!

13 swinging strikes for Giolito so far btw - not bad for four innings lol 

I know RR won't do it and I know this is the 76th time I've said it, but McCann needs to play every day, whether it's C or DH. He is hitting the ball way too hard so consistently, especially vs LHP's, that it's asinine to not get him in there daily

If one looked at the numbers for EE, Mazara and Grandal, and the number of games played by Madrigal....would anyone have dreamed of the playoffs?

 

Looks like that one went right THROUGH Franco's glove, lol.

Man in scoring position.  I hate bunting 

Will Engel ever learn how to be a successful sacrifice bunter?

Agree.  There are ways to work both catchers in.  Abreu doesn’t like DHing, but Grandal playing 1B spares losing the DH.  There is no excuse not to play your best guys every game down the stretch.

Anderson already on base 8 times in this series....OBP just below 400 at the moment.

Tim with some rough swings on balls way out of the zone

Fair!  3-1!

I love Timmy!

Franco sure threw that

Anderson 2 and 3 years ago, .276 and .281 for OBP.

Huge improvement.

What the hell was Franco thinking making that throw?    Kind of a gift run there, but we'll take it.    Engel needs to advance that runner, if we're playing against a really good team where every single run matters.
