Premier ignorance being spewed by Lyons right now. Jesus Christ. What was he saying? I'm curious Something about fans in great seats spending so much time on phones.

When the bottom of our lineup is hitting, then we are in for a good night.

How serious is a toe injury for Hanley? Just reported that X-rays were negative, just a bruised foot.

Forget the 56 game hit streak.....JBJ is gonna hit .400 this year; Both Wake me up when JBJ gets past 40. Then and only then will I even comment on the hit streak. It seems like this has been going on forever -- and he's now halfway to Joe D. This is one of those records that just seems unassailable. Interestingly, I saw a comment somewhere yesterday that so far in his streak JBJ has been more productive than Joe D was in the first half of his streak. Also, I remember reading somewhere that during the time Joe D. was compiling his streak Teddy Ballgame actually outhit him by quite a bit during the same calendar period. In a certain sense, the guy who may fly under the radar here is X, until JBJ's streak ends at least. X is equally capable of hitting consistently, he's drafting in the shadow of JBJ right now so there's no focus on him, AND he has Papi hitting behind him. On the surface, if I had to pick someone to give Joe D.'s record a go, it would be X.

Can't get over JBJ's hit chart. That is so encouraging. He's like a pocket Kirby Puckett on left handed and skinnier. Just really digging his development. Game changer. If this team can just get better starting pitching....

Gotta say, I'd be pretty heated if the Red Sox squeezed for 1 run down 5 in the 7th.

Tazawa should not be warming right now.

Ive mentioned before Tazawa and Kimbrel are being overused. Robbie Ross has been pretty good and could take some of the load off of him.

Tazawa should not be warming right now. And neither should Uehara.

Finally the correct usage of Barnes. Waiting on him to hit 100.

Holy Saint Francis, Barnes. That was some GAS. Encouraging, especially with the Carson Smith news from earlier in the day.

Ah well, one streak ended today. The Red Sox team record streak of 22 straight games with a homer has come to an end. Too bad.
It's not so tough to take when you win, score 8 runs, and have 6 guys in the lineup hitting .300, which doesn't include Betts who will hit .300 and be a 30-30 guy.
What a crazy great lineup! This is easily the most fun I've had watching this team since 2013. And other than 2013, I would say 2007 was the last time I had this much fun, and honestly I'd say I'm enjoying this even more right now. I had a blast watching the 2003 lineup hit and this one approaches it and in some ways surpasses it.

I'm at the game tonight so I apologize to JBJ in advance Go to more games please? The atmosphere must be electric at Fenway....I haven't been to a game in a couple years since they were in last place, not much to be excited about then. This year's team is legit though, not many holes in this lineup. Price is now 7-1 with a QS his last 3 outings and leading the AL in strikeouts. It's good to have an ace again. Thank you Dustin Pedroia.
