Did he think there were two outs?

Really the only explanation.  That was softly hit so there was plenty of time for him to react. 

Herb Laurence is faster than Vaughn.

Vaughn SLOOOOOOW

I think TLR would have beaten that one out. 

Hanger and game is tied

Vaughn and Tork are examples of why drafting "can't miss" slugging college hitters is actually quite risky.  If they don't hit for a 130 wRC+ they are below average. If they don't hit at all, they are below replacement. 

Vaughn is now at -1.1 career fWAR.

This is where managers get really dumb.  My starter has to go 5 innings.......

They need someone up, would be nice if Crochet can give two innings here and bridge to 7-9.

We've got the 'not good' Giolito tonight. It happens.

Pukas

Giolito would have been knocked out of this game already by a real offense

No idea why they sent him back out for the 4th after 5 fucking walks in 3 innings

Lucas clearly doesn’t have it tonight. Go to the pen

How about a 30-yard dash between Vaughn and Cabrerra?

Sox really need Yoan to get it going on offense. With Tim and Benintendi providing zero thump, can’t have another non-power player.

This is likely his last inning. Hope he makes it out of it 

f*** it, let's just lose and trade everybody.

Baez thinking slam

No reason in the world he still should have been in the game still

This is the loudest on-field and stadium audio I can remember. 

we had nobody warming? the ghost of TLR lives on.

They're gonna let this game get completely out of control. Not like the Sox offense is a juggernaut.
