Brian is hitting. This is the most consecutive starts he has had at the major league level.

That woulda been a huge homer. Back to .500 and another lost series at home.

The good news is Contreras looked good. The Sox weren't supposed to be in this game. The Sox had some chances early they f***ed up on.

that.

 

and BA has decided he wants the starting CF job. And Lexi is coming around. There's a lot to like about this team.

How far did Alexei fly out?

 

About 10 feet from warning track towards left center. Off the bat, it seemed like it could have been gone. Hawk started to get excited, but quickly stopped.

The great S. Downs with the save!

 

Do some research on relievers

Contreras pitched well today. Alexei looks like is seeing the ball much better.

Can somebody pull this stat that may sound dumb but I would like to know what he Sox are hitting after the 6th inning in their losses. They seem to lose rather meekly.

Yeah, Scott Downs is one of the top ten relievers in the league, or damn close to it, and BA is showing some fantastic progress.

We are 9-2 when we hit a HR.. 0-7 when we don't

 

Its HR or nothing so far this year, hopefully the trend doesn't last all year

It's been that way for about 10 years. I wouldn't hold out much hope.

 

I meant going 0-fer in the games we don't HR

 

Im well aware of this teams style of play

It's been that way for about 10 years. I wouldn't hold out much hope.

 

And it's been thay way during April for about 10 years as well until the Cell becomes a hitter's haven. Until that time, you have to hope to get good pitching and timely power.

I think the Twins will be the ones to get hot. They have done a good job of treading water with Mauer out. He'll make a big difference.
