I swear Beckham squares up about 1 ball a week. And I feel like I'm not exaggerating.

Blevins in for Alejandro.

If this score holds, Thornton will be tied for 2nd on the team in losses and tied for the most losses of any reliever in the majors.

He was pure s*** last year and lead the same catagories. You can only hit your thumb with a hammer so many before you say f*** it and move your thumb.

He should give some of his money back like Bob Knight that one year at Texas Tech. He's not worth anything but major league minimum money.

What a horrible at bat by Beckham. He pops up a lot.

LOL, Beckham popping up everything trying to be a HR hitter now. So sad

 

He's not getting his arms extended, which causes his bat speed to significantly diminish.

It's almost like Ozzie with some of his favorite veterans.

 

The only way to stop Ventura from losing all these games is for KW to somehow get Thornton off the roster.

Thornton should have been dealt before the deadline while you could still get SOMETHING for him at least. I just don't trust him no matter what the situation is...

Oak scores Sox do not answer this would be a BAD loss.

These are the kind of games that KILL me when the Sox lose em.

 

So winnable but just poor execution & boneheaded decisions could cost us a game.

 

4 outs to work with, let's go!!!

Ventura's bullpen management if far and away his biggest area for improvement right now.

I'm glad we won last night. This reminds me of most series against KC where we gonna be lucky that we got one game.

Give me Veal over Septimo or Thornton, at least he seems like he could actually be a lefty specialist.

Balfour will face 2,3,4 in the 9th. At least that's something.

 

We gotta get three outs first though.

Well, as of now, it couldn't remind me more of the Angels series from last weekend. Good news is we win tomorrow

Great, now we're using Myers one inning too late, lol.

Or, more to the point, he's just not a very good hitter

Texas and Tigers tied at 1 going into bottom of the 7th. After rough start, Holland has been incredible.

Great, now we're using Myers one inning too late, lol.

 

It's absolutely ridiculous he wasn't at least brought in to face Cespedes last inning.

Defense the last month really has gone downhill.

Wow, defense decided to take last two innings of the game off?

It's like Rios has no awareness of situations when on defense. You can NOT afford to let the runner get to 2nd on that. Just take the single, that 9th run could be HUGE.

Serious props to Humber, at least he gave them a chance to make this interesting.

Annddddd.....it is. f*** YOU RIOS. GOD DAMNIT.

It's flat out costing the Sox games.
