I can see why people b**** about the length of Red Sox games. Everything takes forever.

Also, this is the busiest I've seen a game thread since Opening Day. Even busier than the Cubs series. I guess that's what happens around the deadline.

Only one run was unearned.

 

Was that the play he fumbled where the runner was scoring but he could have had the out at 1st and probably 2nd?

 

What was the second error (I was coaching Chinese students to recite the Gettysburg Address, haha)?

Could have had the out at home on the first error. The 2nd was a throwing error with 2 outs, that was the unearned run.

Wow, nice play

Wow, Melky got robbed.

Same goes for the Yankees.

Where's our Takatsu? Can't believe it's 10 years later. He didn't come back for the 2005 reunion, did he?

 

For whatever reason, the Red Sox have had quite a bit of success with Japanese relievers, if you're willing to throw out the Dice-K Matsuzaka disaster.

I think everyone feels we're at the point where it's "win out or sell".

Good time for 16, 79.

Who comes out for the 8th?

Should be 3-1

Same goes for the Yankees.

 

Its one thing to suck, but for the games to take forever has to suck even more.

What is he swinging at...

Yucky.

I get the organizational approach to taking pitches. But how they happened to find every pitcher who must take 30 seconds between pitches is crazy

Baltimore just won.

 

Someone must have hit a walkoff homer.

 

Wieters.

 

His asking price from Boras in free agency just went up to $100 million...

FWIW, my final score prediction was 10-8 Boston. Unless either team explodes for a huge inning, I'd be close.

Let's not have drama. Nice easy 6 up, 6 down.

Petricka is really pumped out there. Nice frame by Flowers too

The Chicago #Whitesox plan to see how they fare vs #Redsox this series before determining Samardzija's fate.

Close isn't good enough, Jose

This has the atmosphere of a World Series game.

It makes Petricka seem like the quickest worker in baseball.

It counts in horseshoes, that's good enough for me!
