I almost feel like they were pitching around Napoli to deal with that. Some of those looked like pitcher swings.

Where does Swihart rank across the league as far as speed goes? Looked pretty quick on that double.

That was Mookie Bett's first fly ball hit on a ball in play all year.

Victorino's inability to put the throw on the Butler double anywhere near the bag costs us. Would have been a great play to get us out of the inning, but if he's going to justify being on this roster, those are plays you'd like to see him make.

That could easily end up costing us the game

This inconclusive crap is complete BS. I've seen way too many replay reviews this season where you can clearly see a call should be overturned, and they refrain from doing so.

I would start Holt against LH's

Somebody higher up needs to go ahead and just tell Sandoval he stinks hitting righty and ban him from that side of the plate.

Why bother with replay? This isn't the first time with this crap.

JBJ misplayed two balls in RF yesterday Yeah, on brand new turf that he hadn't ever played on. That's a lot different than throwing a ball 20 feet to the outfield side of second base.

Part of me now wishes we kept Luis Jimenez on the roster, because he'd provide 10x more competitive at bats than Panda from the right side. Seriously, Sandoval's right-handed hitting, both the discipline and the swing, is embarrassingly horrible.

Kazmir looked great tonight - he's a FA after this year?

Kazmir looked great tonight - he's a FA after this year? Yep. Xander doing his best tonight to cement his #1 spot in soft %. I really, really hope the hitting coaches are trying their best to transform him back into the hitter he was in 2013 and the early part of 2014.

Mookie Betts is the best player on the Red Sox

Breslow, our hard throwing stopper is in.

Heart of the order in a 1 run game?
Farrell thinks, "Craig Breslow would be my best option in this situation."
edit: That literally took about 2 minutes and 4 pitches.
