0-3 already lol

Just keep throwing out the same guys 3-4-5 Will, eventually it may work

I keep saying Will is choking as much as the whole team. Just bat Peters 3rd. Also, if Vargas is hurt, sit him

Lots of talk about RISP. But that inning was a nice illustration of what goes on. The guys didn't really hit their way on base so there's no particular reason to expect there to be hits after that either. No hits with men on because there are no hits ever.

We got kwan out........that's a big deal

Why is Mune batting clean up?

This. Does Venable think it's dishonorable or something to drop Mune in the order? He has been the worse 3 hitter in the league the past 2 months and today he hits clean-up? When I mean "drop", I mean he should be batting like 7th.

JRam has zero power since coming back from that surgery, dude is not a real XBH threat anymore

Kwan squared it up but since he is such a tiny little man it didn'tgo far

Why is he even playing

Kolson shouldn’t be playing either but who takes their place, I guess Acuna at SS but if Vargas moves to first who plays 3rd.

Not gonna get many chances against Williams and they just wasted a good one. Vargas and Mune have been useless recently. Can't have your 3 and 4 hitters be terrible with RISP and expect to score.

I don’t like the umpire at third base but this is already ridiculous. How Venable justifies hitting Mune cleanup is beyond me.

Should have someone in the spot who has shown an ability to make contact lately. Meidroth or Peters would be prime candidates in my book.

Why in god's name has Peters not been moved up yet?

Guarantee when the one Sox media member asks why Mune was batting 4th, Venable will say cause he hit a cheap opposite field homer off the foul pole against Williams before.

HOW MANY FUCKING MEN CAN WE FUCKING LEAVE ON BASE IN CRITICAL FUCKING GAMES THE LAST MONTH??????????????????????????????????????????????

I can't even watch this s%*#, go Sox.

Against a great RHP, you have to play Colson and hope for a mistake

Vargas was the key guy in the first inning.

Yeah he didn't make a productive out but that wouldn't have mattered with the guaranteed K up next anyway.

Ramirez will cause havoc on the bases here

What the f*** is this umpire looking at?

He can’t even hit mistakes.

No concept of productive outs.

Vargas was doomed after he didn't time that first fastball.

Yahoo!!!

Man umps lately have been super ass.

Nice pick by Mune at least. Terrible throw.
