They didn’t touch the base at second. Sam should be safe.

They have been awful with runners on this year. Just awful.

Fixed.

The offense really needs to get their s%*# together.

He's gonna get paid this off-season and it probably won't be us.

Yep. Great value signing. Too bad it wasn't a 2-year deal.

Beni needs to try and line one to left here

Good AB Vargas

Anything slow and low is killing these hitters

Beni, stop swinging at the change up out of the zone

And he did exactly what you can’t do. Terrible approach

Weak dribblers galore today with RISP. Ugh.

Benny swinging at too many down and away pitches since his Home run.

When is the last time you’ve seen 2 1/2 innings played in a game with no strikeouts?

Already 0 - 3 with RISP.

The story of this series.

Why are the Sox absolutely HORRIBLE with RISP?

Most of the opportunities seem to be coming with 2 outs.

A lot of hitters seem to have pitches they can’t hit, but they just can’t lay off

Would be nice to see the Sox lay off offspeed below the zone today. Starting to feel like the 2013-2018 era when soft tossing lefties like Bruce Chen were the bane of our existence.

Nailed it.

Have not enjoyed this ump crew at all

So we got a pitch clock violation cause the pitch coms for the players weren't working? That's bullshit.

Agreed, just do the robot zones already. Challenge system is an additional layer of chess this sport does not need.

Should that matter?

It clearly does to the Sox who just seem to piss down their legs.

Yeah, but Gausman can be coked out of his mind last night and take all the time he needs to work out his hand cramp?

I love the challenge system as it is.

Colson took way too long on that one. Gotta go get that earlier hop against a fast runner like Taylor.

You know what, I'll grant Schriff Dawg that stupid laugh

I like the challenge system, I would just give teams more than 2 challenges per game.

I'm annoyed by the 1B ump granting time for the pitchcom issue and then the HP ump overriding that to call a violation instead.
