Not sure I can really put a ton of fault on the infielder now being played as an outfielder in the big leagues, over the pitcher who walked the bases loaded with nobody out.

It was Pasquintino at the plate so I assume he was playing deep. It was a duck snort. Should he have made the play? Probably but it wasn’t easy by any stretch.

Sam obviously got close to catching it but I'm not 100% sure that it was a routine catch either. Just a lucky hit coming after a bunch of walks

unreal

These walks are gonna make my head explode. Just giving the game away.

walks walks walks

make them beat you

too scared of Garcia and Witt

Not that mad at Sam and not that mad at Noah. Sometimes you give up runs. We will all survive it. Sam is a work in progress in the outfield but really not too bad out there. I can see in the metrics that he makes some reasonably high difficulty plays even if he sometimes fails to make ones that he should.

this reads like one of those Sox fan twitter accounts that feels like they're being paid by the Sox to write lovely tweets all day about the team lol

Yea bro let's get mad at our checks notes 22 year old pitcher making his 6th MLB start and checks notes 23 year old infielder learning a brand new position.

It was a terrible attempt. That’s the type of play that should get you -2 DRS

Not on a play that the catch is difficult to begin with. Some left fielders might not even get a glove on it. His dive was not graceful.The glove has to hit the ball before your body bounces on the ground.

well whoever wins tonight it probably won't be via the HR

This ump sucks. Really sets women back to get promoted like this when they aren't ready.

Can't fire her.

Colson didn't want to get his face in the way of that ball

What gives you so much optimism he will learn to lift for power? Would be an awesome surprise, but it seems like a long shot to me

It was a s%*# defensive play by antonacci, happy to settle that debate.

Runs now boys . Thank you.

DAMN

That's a no doubter in better weather.

Yeah if it was Benintendi, people would be destroying the effort

Vargas looks amazing

Is Vargas using the torpedo bat now too? I can’t tell if it is or not.

Antonacci isn't half bad for an infielder playing LF. It's gonna take time for him to adjust if he sticks in the OF.

Nice little ducksnort by Colson

If Vargas buttons up his jersey properly he gets a bit less wind drag on the swing and its 100% a homer

WTF
