caulfield12 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) Really does just feel like the White Sox were content to get 2 out of 3...a sweep was expecting way too much. 8 groundouts so far in this one already. Game moving fast, not shocking for the finale of straight DH with the challenging weather conditions. Edited June 9, 2023 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) Guardians crushing the Red Sox, looks like they'll somehow just be 1 1/2 games back at 29-33 going into action tomorrow. Naylor and Jose Ramirez the ONLY two hitters with over an 800 OPS in the CLE line-up..everyone else below 700.

That's almost where the 2008 season ended, and both those Sox and Twins teams were much better...not to mention the increased difficulty of schedule this year.
