Ump is squeezing him

Haha just awful from Martin this inning. 

Doesn't help when 2 strikes are called balls

Yeah second pitch should have been called for sure. First pitch needed to be received better. Velocity is good, command is off.

His change up sucks, mercy 

Lolol this team.... Please end this agony

If you’re really trying to contend, you need to get the pen up

This is truly a split-squad game 

Nice while it lasted.

Put in Delmonico and Palka just for fun.

Sheets putting on a late season rush so no moves over the off-season.

2007-08 Birmingham team was better.

Have to get one second rounder to pan out eventually after a lost decade.

very loud boos.  Perez absolutely sucks.  Having an all-time bad defensive inning.

Arizona with two massive second innings this weekend.  So pathetic

I dispise Tony, but Tony doesn’t bat and play defense and run the bases. Tony has cost the Sox several games at least, but ultimately this team just has no killer instinct, sucks at situational hitting and is awful defensively. 

that said, I absolutely fire Tony as deep into the sun as possible. 

Now on top of all our defensive and offensive woes, now our pitching has been failing, particularly the last two games.  Getting progressively worse as we close out the season.

Booing?  Perez can throw but not catch. A bit like Miguel Olivo in that sense.

Perez looked crossed up the way he put his bare hand up there too

Im sure Perez has some nerves, but damn…thought he was supposed to be a good catcher. 

Looking for Davis to totally blow up so they can't sell replacing Cueto with Lambert or Martin as any type of viable solution for 2022-23.

That's what I thought when I watched it live and saw the replay.

Yep agree with you there 

Leury had no shot at home?

Has a player ever been demoted mid-inning?

How did that go over the netting behind the plate?

Thought about getting tickets for this one. Glad I didn't.
