Is it bad that I tear up a bit every time I go to a Sox game and they do the military member of the game?

Not bad one bit.  It really is a wonderful moment every time I see it...and that particular one tonight especially choked me up.  Kudos to the Sox for making that wonderful reunion happen.  Welcome back sir... enjoy a catch with that young man.  That hug gave me chills.

sigh

Stupid fucking contact play

God damn it...

So ridiculous that you’re allowed to block the plate

Saw that coming

You gotta give the runner somewhere to slide. He just sat on the plate. 

Massive hanger to Abreu.  Sox just have to stop hitting the ball on the ground with runners on 3rd and less than 2 outs

Shoulda scored that inning. Really bad luck on that ball bouncing out of play off the net. 

Sox love stranding runners…

Should of scored that inning

Time for another public service announcement for those in the crowd..."not every fly ball is going to be a home run.  Thank you."

All Yoan had to do was hit a fly ball...but he somehow always finds a way to not get the run home with a guy on 3rd and less than 2 outs, even when he hits the ball hard.

Need to give him the Ray Fosse treatment. 

What’s our current percentage of runners on third scoring with less than two outs?

You're too smart for this. Moncada is hitting .296/.426/.472 with RISP.

No way that's a strike with Collins catching. 

Rodon getting a big zone.

I know what the numbers are. He did most of his damage early in the year. Recently, it's been like watching nails on a chalkboard in those situations with him.

He should stop hitting 100 MPH liners at people, clearly. But when you know for the season he's been very good in these situations, it isn't fair to say he doesn't get ever get the job done.
