How many day is it since Eloy was thrown out at third on the exact same fly ball? So he was reluctant to run. Shoulda been pinch run for, I agree.

It's his signature call, give him a break Jeez you should be happy we beat Cleveland instead of commenting on the announcers call. Also, Schriffen was hanging out with the tailgaters in Lot B before the game. (I think he's done it before too) You would never see Stone do that with his "holier than thou" attitude. Give him a chance he's brand new, he will improve. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually am thinking if the Sox get good that will be a pretty good call embraced by fans. Even though many of us think such catchphrases are stupid, they seem to catch on quickly if the team is any good. Four in a row is worth getting excited about. I heard his close on the mlb highlights and I wasn't offended this time. We shall see if fans like it. If the Sox go back to dropping 8 of 10 it's ridiculous to do the south side stand up after a rare win. But if these Sox are for real, it'll be fine IMO.

Just wait until players start coming to Shriffen, asking him to give them nicknames. "Okay, South Side Predator comes to the plate!!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like his footwork. He makes routine plays look more difficult than they are. His arm isn’t exactly Moncada-esque either. But he seems to have way better pitch recognition than most of our recent “stars” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he does a good job and has been getting better. He’s the type of guy that sounds good with a good team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows the kid listens to instruction and wants to improve. He will only get better the more time he get's at 3B. Chuck brought up wether the Sox will keep him on the MLB roster when Moncada comes up and Pods said a decision will have to be made sooner when Mendicks ready. Ozzie brushed that off saying "If we're worrying about when Mendick will come back we're in trouble". Gotta love Ozzie!
