Nice at bat...almost tied it up.

Ughhh so close

bennetti made me spit up my beverage at the beginning of the telecast when he said the umpiring had been good...

 

its been shitty all series just like most of the year...

1 more chance

Watch TLR give up the DH to have Grandal catch. He's up 6th next inning.

Today probably ain't our day. Go Orioles. 

Ohhh Mercedes at catcher

Oh wow Yermin really is catching.

Damn, Yermin just missed that...he's been having better ABs lately, hopefully that's a good sign going forward

I hate the hit and run, the risks don’t outweigh the reward. Again, it has gone extinct for a reason the past decade+.

Wonder if it's a side effect of the elevated strikeouts. Hitters making less contact and less of an effort to hit the ball the other way, trying to hit more for power, so less contact is being made, therefore the hit n run is going away

Mercedes catching.

Thanks for proving my point.

Your critical thinking skills are lacking if you think that proves your point. Because Grandal is the worse possible to hit and run with doesn’t mean the Sox shouldn’t hit and run with other batters

Lmao, Yermin catching

Your mistake is that he's gonna learn anything from this. He's gonna blame Mendick for bunting it to the wrong side. 

Mendick also broke the wrong way defensively earlier in the game...looks increasingly like he’s the odd man out.

Mercedes catching Sox did not want to lose DH

Can’t be a much worse framer than Collins.

Oh look we found out Haase can't hit high fastballs. If only we knew that before the game...

Mercedes should be Ruiz' personal catcher 

Yermin with a 0.00 catcher ERA so far. Eat your heart out Yas.

Indians up 3-1 on Means, still hitting behind Cy Civale.

Yay, Leury might not be available for the ninth due to getting banged up diving into home late yesterday.

 

99 mph from Ruiz.  Yermin holding his own and giving some good targets.

Damn Ruiz hitting 100 out there.

Who was it that was talking shit about my boy Ruiz? @SoxAce ?

Nice job ruin nice job Mercedes

Giolito and Rodon recently have really gotten hurt with their changeups...

Gotta root for a guy like Ruiz. He's making a case to stay in this pen.
