Tony is a clown ? 

That's not a fair comparison...this is a longer season ?

Fuck you Tony! But also shit at bats by the 1 - 2.

I hate Tony.  I really do. He'll cost the sox to many games this year!

Wasted opp

Larussa killed this rally.  If they lose, it's another loss on him.

None of these soft ass reporters will even ask him about it after the game. They’ll just stare at the screen trying to decide if the zoom video is frozen or if TLR fell asleep.

No.

You don't give outs to a guy who can't get outs.

It's not giving outs away. If it's a good bunt, you are forcing the defense to make a tough play. Like I said, against Holland, yeah let them swing away, but generally, it isn't giving away an out 

Mendick has been hitting like shit.. but if we go back from now to when Ricky was bunting a lot a few  years ago.

 

It's overwhelmingly failed to work - if you have been watching the games over this time then you know this.

 

It's a strategy that has failed over and over again.

 

Benetti and Stoney couldn’t believe we were bunting.  Stoney said if they were going to bunt it had to be to third not to first.  TLR also doubled down on the bunt with 2 batters in a row. LaRussa is on a time machine to the 20th century.  Giving up an out nowadays to a crappy bullpen is a blunder. For TLR’s sake hope the Sox come back on this game.  Sox deserves a better manager like Alex Cora or AJ Hinch even with their baggage.Time has gone by for TLR.

Great changeup

The chickenshit media members need to ask TLR about that bunt call.

For those that say managers don’t have a large impact, they typically don’t if they don’t routinely insert themselves into the game.  Bunting in the 6th inning against a pitcher incapable of getting outs is just plain dumb and may end up costing us.  Let’s hope the hitters battle back in spite of Tony’s horrible in-game decisions.

One of these is not like the others

Lucas is feeling it!

Sacrifice bunts end up in an out 100% of the time. If you're trying to make the Tigers make a mistake...you're really leaving it up to chance.

If you think you have to play for 1 run in the 6th inning with no outs against the tigers bullpen, that is an issue.

I feel a come back in the 8th and a 1-2-3 Hendriks 9th

Good job L Gio

Lucas was in the zone that inning. Too bad he had to give up that homer to Miggy in the 6th.

You see that swagger by Lucas? Like "I'm fucking feelin it now" type swag.

So Gio hasn’t looked the best, has given up more runs, and is over 100 pitches… but Dallas couldn’t go over 80 yesterday with less runs and hits given up? 

Wow, Lucas up to 97 mph there. Hell yeah

I wonder what the numbers are for non-pitchers.
