Too bad the ump misses calls at the plate and we can do nothing about it and now they make a bad call in our favor and we get screwed by replay.

 

The ball beat the runner which USED TO BE an automatic out.

Alexei didn't tag him until his knee. Raburn's hand got in there before the tag by my view.

Get someone up.

 

Last guy to walk scored. Had retired 7 in a row before Brantley.

 

 

Great arm from Sierra...almost at the warning track there. Did Ramirez miss the bag and tag the dirt instead? Uh-oh.

 

Looks like the runner will be on 2nd.

Too bad Sierra can't hit. Not many guys can make it close there. What an arm.

An absolute hose by Sierra though on that play.

This replay stuff sucks. Do away with it please.

Sox get a break!

Too bad Sierra can't hit. Not many guys can make it close there. What an arm.

 

He's hitting .297 with the Sox. He was just terrible with the Blue Jays early in the year.

Did he softly touch him on the slide for the out and then went for the knee? It looked like he might have brushed the jersey initially.

Exactly.

lmao wow. I guess it wasn't "conclusive" enough...

That's what I was thinking too. It kind of looked like it, but couldn't really tell.

He's hitting .297 with the Sox. He was just terrible with the Blue Jays early in the year.

He's poor on defense and a bad baserunner.

Cleveland's had too much good luck recently with another 1st overall draft pick, Manziel...rumors of LeBron coming back, haha.

He was safe but I always wonder why the guy covering 2nd on that type of play doesn't catch the ball on the outfield side of 2nd base. He'd get the throw and the throw's natural momentum will allow the tag to be apllied a split 2nd sooner tagging the sliding runner on his right side rather than his left.

 

Wow they called him out.

Did he softly touch him on the slide for the out and then went for the knee? It looked like he might have brushed the jersey initially.

 

That's probably what made the replay inconclusive.

He's poor on defense and a bad baserunner.

 

He's made 1 bad play.

Damn the Sox bullpen is going to have to cover the final three innings which is never good. We can't cover nine outs without giving up at least a run, likely more, IMO.

He's poor on defense and a bad baserunner.

 

Which is still much better than DeAza this year.

Q gutted out 6 innings.

Which is still much better than DeAza this year.

Yep.

Which is still much better than DeAza this year.

If Avi was healthy it is a no brainer Sierra over De Aza ..............De Aza is one lucky SOB to have a job right now.

He's poor on defense and a bad baserunner.

 

He hasn't played poorly on defense this year. At least UZR doesn't think so (small sample I know) and he has made a couple of nice plays (I was there for the diving catch in Houston).

Q gutted out 6 innings.

 

Q, Sale and Danks (of the last outing) all seem to have a plan on the mound. Crazy that we have 3 good lefty starters and only one horrible lefty in bullpen.

Conor rips a double to RF.
