4 hours ago4 hr Author I’ll count a rainout as a skid stopper at this point, but would that require a follow-up game thread from me tomorrow?
3 hours ago3 hr Kevin RothYELLOW/GREEN - Ok now I'm getting tired of saying it... yet another game with a few little downpours around. I'd call it a low chance of a delay, and the game will play 9 innings regardless of any potential delay.
1 hour ago1 hr The Sox need to change something about their approach at the plate. It’s dreadful to watch them strike out ~25% of the time. They can’t swing from the heels on every pitch of every at bat. There has to be some situational awareness.
1 hour ago1 hr Got my fingers and toes crossed I won’t have to deal with another reported post regarding terrible things. I believe in you guys!

34 minutes ago34 min Boston, just like the last series against them, is the hottest team in baseball. Their pitching has been incredible and they’re seemingly squaring up anything thrown at them. That’s a tough team to beat and will make even good teams look bad. I expect an L today and won’t think twice about it when the sweep is complete. It shouldn’t be used as proof that we suddenly suck or whatever nonsense dumb fans will inevitably throw around. No analysis should go further than the fact we ran into a buzz saw. They just swept LAD before us.

5 minutes ago5 min By my count, Sox are 14-12 in their last 26. 0-5 vs. Boston, 14-7 vs. everyone else.Would have been nice to have caught them in May or June.
