Bogaerts has cost the Red Sox two runs the night with his base running mistakes. There is difference between being aggressive and making stupid mistakes. Bogaerts has made the latter twice tonight and countless other times during this year. Some how he needs to learn that you don't run when you likely will be out by more than twenty five feet.

Beers getting warm. This team is nothing without Rafael Devers, right guidas? I swear, when I first saw Devers bat, he just looked like a really young Papi.

Good spot for Betts to go deep.

Devers delivers a clutch hit. Hopefully the zombies mascerating as Red Sox hitters on the bench were taking notes.

Betts would benefit a lot from hitting less pop ups, even if it cut into his power output a bit. I don't want him to be a groundball machine, but he's been disappointing offensively this year.

After the cheapest of HRs, nice to see the bottom of the order bail them out. Now, if they can just keep Bogaerts from trying to move up a base...

I am amazed by Rafa's feel for the barrel. You throw that pitch to a LHH and you'll have a pop up 99% of the time.

Please no extra innings tonight. The Sox don't have the arms to do that this night.

Please no extra innings tonight. The Sox don't have the arms to do that this night. They're only half way through the game. I have a feeling these teams are not through scoring. Add: Are we still debating whether Nunez was worth it?

The Royals do what the Red Sox used to do for years. They foul off pitch after pitch after pitch until they either get walked or get a fat one down the middle. It seems like the Red Sox don't do that anymore. Not a lot of counts up around six, seven pitches it seems.

Had this dude had a multi-HR game in his career?

It appears the Sox got the power bat they were looking for.
And if Devers is so great how come it took him 4 games to hit a single?

This guy leads the team in position player WAR in July after 2 days. At this pace he's going to lead the team in nearly every offensive category. Too early to consider an extension? He has the versatility of Brock Holt but way better in every aspect. (Granted SSS but he's put up some very good numbers over the past year and a half)

When he was a yankee didn't he hit a tater or two at Fenway?
This is so refreshing to see.
Thank god chilli has not turned Nunez into a zombie like chilli did bogey, Hanley, Moreland, benintendi and betts.
