Awesome! Was hoping someone would pull that stat!

Ha, it was going to show up eventually so thought I'd throw it in here. I'm far from the most anti Robin person around but I did laugh a bit when I saw that.

The rock song for this win is.....Never Say Die by Black Sabbath .

Reverse Texas... I like it. Huge bunt by a rookie right there. Big nights by the Eaton, Lawrie and the Pen. Lets get rolling here boys.

That was some pretty shoddy defense by Cabrera on Shuck's double, but I'll take it. A ~0.900 OPS excuses some poor defense, I suppose.

As someone who actually sat though Shields' first start and was rewarded with nothing, I'm glad those of us who stuck with it tonight got to see a victory. Would have been painful to come so close and not end up with the win.

Now reverse the season please thanks

Who is coming up?

Danish sent down. I imagine Coats isn't far behind.

I'd give Coats more than 9 ABs before writing him off. Having said that, I wouldn't mind giving Danny Hayes a look.

Deja vu all over again for 6-13:

 

June 13, 1978 - It was one of the greatest comebacks by any team in franchise history. After trailing Cleveland 9-0 going into the bottom of the third inning, the Sox wound up winning the game 10-9! They scored six runs in the third, four runs in the fourth inning and hung on to win. They scored 10 runs without benefit of a home run. Wayne Nordhagen led the way with three RBI’s. Rich Hinton went over six innings in relief allowing only a run on five hits to get the win.

 

Give them all the credit in the world. Season went south after blowing a huge lead in Texas maybe the season will head north after this one tonight.

 

And can James Shields possibly pitch any worse than right now?

 

Tonight may have saved Robin's job...don't know if that's a good thing or not.

If his ABs weren't so bad and clearly overmatched, I'd say keep him up.

Little note for tonight:

 

Sox are now 3-0 in games Ventura's been kicked out of.

Kahnle again, seems like a possibility. Or Ynoa, even though he sucks.

Took me an embarrassingly long time to get it

Kahnle sucks too. Almonte was good in ST IIRC but has struggled in AAA. Our options aren't the best unfortunately.

I think they should keep batting Tim Anderson lead off. Its the spot in the line up where he projects the best with his ability to make contact and his speed, having get familiar with batting in that spot now is better for his development.

Glad that for some reason, I stuck around for that one.

I agree. I didn't have an issue with it and Eaton was good in the 2 spot. I like this top of the lineup and down to Lawrie. After that it's shaky.

This was the Sox biggest comeback since 2002.

 

Unless I missed another deficit of 8 or greater in the season that was 2002, that would be this game.

That game was memorable to say the least.

Almonte was traded for Kahnle.
