FWIW, Cortes' last 2 starts were pretty bad. Even KC put 5 runs up on him.

They've hit fine the past 2 games, it's just that they couldn't get the big hit last night. 

yes, "fine" is a good description.

How does this lineup get dominated so much against shit pitchers. Just makes no sense

That's happened as long as I can remember.

Get themselves out way too often. 

Eloy just looks great

At least Eloy seems to want to hit.

Vaughn up with RISP and 2 outs again. 

Here we go again...

Got to score here

Another Vaughn failure 

Of course we hit it hard right at someone. Just can't get the big hit. 

AV has a mental block on getting a hit with RISP.

Zero luck

You just can’t hit that pitch on the ground 

So dam frustrating

Lots of baseball left today 

 

A perfect game going on CLE vs. DET.  Interesting these 2 teams are close to .500.

Sometimes I think it's not a bad idea just to turn of Sox baseball and watch some team you don't care about. 

Edited August 15, 20214 yr by kitekrazy

maybe its not a good idea to give AV so many days off...

 

just a thought...

Yaz's presence is just so badly missed in this lineup.   It does look like Eloy is playing at the peak of his powers at the moment.

Slider center cut. He's gotta put that in the outfield.

Was a good pitch to drive.  

Honestly I'm not surprised by this. This is the sox since the asg for the most part.  Not worth getting upset about anymore. 

guy isn't a ground ball pitcher either.. we have made some really bad pitchers look good the last few weeks.

It would be the most Sox thing ever to go on a big losing streak after their biggest regular season win in a decade

We just can't help but hit ground balls, even with our boppers back. 

Nice catch by Vaughn out there
