There are at least 5 teams that are much better than us across the board. The Braves were below .500 in July last season and a ton of their good players were hurt. That isn't how this works. You don't have to be the best team or a perfect team to win the World Series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graveman shoulda started the inning unless he's hurt. I'm a Tony lover but chalk this one up to the manager. Second goat: Yoan on the slow roller error. Third goat: Bases loaded and chance to win. Two outs in a row in extras. Cleveland with the spectacular play at 3B and 1B to record the big out. Banks didn't do a whole lot wrong. He made the pitches to get out of it, but Yoan's error basically made everything after that possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maloney.adam Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 That loss stings a lot. The team should be embarrassed by that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brutal defense from a solid defender at a very bad time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MexSoxFan#1 Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Wasted a great effort by Kopech. Just when it looked like the Sox were starting to put it together, scoring 8 runs after a bunch of 3 or 4 run games...they of course defense (or a lack thereof) bites them in the ass. TA is supposed to be the heart and soul of this team but he's the biggest culprit in their shitty defense, someone needs ro challenge him to get his shit together, I have no idea who that could be since Pito has also had bad games on defensive side. I hope they come out pissed off tomorrow or else the Indians gon' sweep these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I actually saw the Sox blow a 4-run lead in the ninth vs. KC at Kauffman a long time ago. Fat Steve Balboni ripped a home run to ruin my night. Prior to the ninth that night, the Sox were cruising. I was so mad and the Royals fans I was with mocked me mercilessly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just props to jram really, dudes a stud. Awful finish to the game. This one hurts for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
