Those 2 things are challenges for the Sox. I agree, but I think that'd really only help on the margins. If you don't draw walks or hit HR's, you're not going to be a good offensive team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 I'd like to go on record to say that I predicted this 19 game stretch perfectly so far. Hopefully I'm also right on the last 10 games. Going 5 over after this stretch is decent. The only problem is that the Twins got a lot better yesterday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GermanSoxFan Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 props to lynn for a great game even after the delay.

chw42 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 All bitching aside, the Sox did hit well today and they hit a pitcher that they've historically struggled against. That's an improvement. Now they go to Texas and face 4 pretty bad starters. Hopefully the offense gets hot and we can rattle off some more series wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
