Stick around, I'll be doing my Rick Hahn impressions later in the evening. I've been reading apologies from Fortune 500 companies to practice.

Thoughts and prayers to Jason and Stoney, who not only have had to watch this sox offense come to bat 13 times so far tonight, but talk about it too

My apologies to Ruiz and Fulmer. They have looked quite competent in covering 3 innings tonight. Nice to see.

No, I am saying Hahn and JR don't blame Ricky, but I think the rest of us do (and also yes, we blame Hahn and JR too). I think for most fans, the free pass is over.

Looking around this thread and every other one here, I think A LOT of people blame the manager. Unfortunately Hahn and JR are not among those people

Hey. Hey Guys. Hey. That inning was our 3-4-5 hitters.

Or swinging at every single low and away slider thrown in the same zip code as home plate

I really didn't think I was asking for that much

May want to wait until the inning ends before you say that....

Are they ever not...?

Stone was already fired by a team for putting management on blast, so I think he would tell you it is. And the guy who signs his checks would agree.

LOL after all the shit we give Hahn for calling Skole up, of course he would come up and tie the game in the 9th.

HR or nothing here please. I don't want to see extra innings of Ruiz and Fulmer pitching

Tough ending but a great battle by James

He's had a tough year but I really have no doubts about Eloy. He had some adjustments to make, but he's been interrupted by injury. Still confident he is going to be great

OMG Eloy buddy, that first pitch is something you NEED to put the bat on

Does Leury normally get it down? I can off the top of my head think of at least three times he has tried a bunt and pushed it foul. Obviously that is just anecdotal though, where do we find bunt success stats? (Just to be clear, this is not sarcasm. I am genuinely curious if Leury is a good bunter, or just looks like he SHOULD be a good bunter. Also curious about where to look that up)

I mean, how many years after 05 did we deal with slogans like "Grinder Ball!" JR definitely loves the idea of a small ball team (and yet somehow we have always had a terrible defense???)

Maybe ya'll already noticed, but when Cordell came in for Engel, RR move Leury Garcia over to CF and Cordell to RF. Cordell, ostensibly a speed and D player, was moved out of CF for a guy who was a utility IF until last year. Worthless

Oh, just plain old incompetence. That wasn't very creative.

I'm excited to see what innovative way the Sox come up with to screw it up this time

Can you believe those guys called up Bo Bichette? Its like they don't even WANT a top 5 pick! Such scrubs at the rebuild ahahahahahahaha

LOL Ricky fails to copy Kapler with stealing third, then Kapler copies Ricky's affinity for bunting and his team nails it. RR being completely outclassed tonight.

oh my god the irony

I hate the bunt sooo much.... But in Ricky's defense, he has 3 pitchers batting in a row now.
