Bases loaded 1 out. 25% chance of score

0%

Romy was running hard all the way to first.   I like to see that type of effort.

I thought this was bad enough but I just turned on the game and saw Seby line out and then I heard Stone say..."this is another hanging breaking ball.  Garcia does not have good stuff."  Well that's just outstanding.  I then turned the game off again.

Single to right,  1 out, moncada jogs to 3rd. No chance to send him.  We then don't score.  

That inning was just the whole season in miniature, promised so much only to get nothing.

Well, they got a split, which is what we all wanted headed into the series. Critical they win the series this weekend in Cleveland. 4-3 would be a great week still.

It's not like it really matters. But it's just funny that this team choked again with the bases loaded.

10-0.  One team can hit, the other can't...

And unless we have excellent pitching permitting less than 4 runs a game, we have no chance against teams like the Astros.  We can’t come back from being down more than 3 or 4 runs with our lack of power, and our ground ball city station to station offense.

God Bless my wife.  She just saw the score and texted me. She asked me if they could come back.

Note sure Vaughn saw a strike.....Luis Garcia is not that good but here we go I guess. 

I said this two batters in and Stoney just said the same thing this is pathetic. 

Last 15 innings of Sox-astros baseball I’ve attended the Sox have been out scored 20-1

Oh so it's your fault.

Splitting with a far superior team is fine. What wasn’t fine was their effort last week against an awful Royals team.  

A Royals team that went scoreless the last 26 or so innings against the Twins.  How pathetic!  Even though they won the first two games of this series with the Astros, they are by no means fixed!

We have different definitions of great.

Was the hitting and defense anywhere to be seen this series?  Dusty aided them as much as anyone.  it was a nice two days as I got nothing out of the tigers series.

Talk about getting your ass handed to them.

I was in a  meeting from 1:30 to 2:30 and just checked in holy shit 10-0 in the 4th.

Welp I hate this team again.

Giolito has zero trade value at this time and I sadly am coming around more and more to the non-tender camp if the price is not right.  No way you even discuss a long term deal.

He does talk a good game though I will give him that.

Why do you take him out after 68 pitches? 

 

This, the bullpen couldn't afford for our starter to get 9 outs today.  Should have just left him in, he could have let them balloon out to 10-0 lead as well as anyone else.

Sad that I never even considered watching this game because i was so sure Gio would get shelled.  Sad to see your ace become you fifth starter.  What a roller coaster ride he has been, but glad we didn’t extend him when everybody was clamoring for it 

Pollock is so bad against RHP

You need to be 86'd

5 innings left for us to score.   2 an inning will tie it up.

We've been saying this sort of thing for stretches of games for at least a month now.

I think the likeliest outcome is they once again tread water for those 7 games and don't gain much ground, but don't fall enough back. And then we repeat the "these next X games are the season" thing again.

That's as about as logical as can be. You are probably spot on!!!

5 singles scores 2, so 25 singles. Already have 2.

Singles! Singles!

It's the free MLB.tv game today, so at least you're getting your money's worth.

Maybe they look at the pitch grip and relay the info to the batter?

If we are giving free bases because of that then we need to work on hiding the ball. 

Only down 1 touchdown now!
