annnd they escape it. really inexcusable sac bunt by Vazquez I don't think it was a bad play. They had the bases loaded with 1 out and couldn't score a run. Oh no. Friggin Clemens......Eff him.

Friggin Clemens......Eff him. you don't give crappy pitchers free outs the subsequent hitters needed only a single to score 2 runs, there were 3 of them. If you don't like bunts (or bunts against crappy pitchers) that is perfectly fine, but there was nothing wrong with the play and it wasn't the reason they didn't score a run

Set your clock by our offense stranding runners, and Porcello giving up gopher balls

Also, it's the volatile Porcello on the mound, we have a good offense, we should play for the big inning. Alas, Porcello has already given up the small lead we had.

Good to know this was the game we were going to really light up the offense with Smyly going. Last night - 3-2 with Cy Nola. tonight 3-2 with Cy Smyly. We are at home! With poor offense and porous defense, anyone have any doubts that they are now just starting to mail it in? Depressing....

Nice hit by Vazquez....too bad he wasted a big at bat with that bunt earlier on. Can we tie this thing? Ah - Chris Owings coming in to be the savior? ? Huh?

Well, that was utterly predictable. We may be at rock bottom tonight.

Rest of this season will really be sad to watch - the Aug 31 call ups have no drama - no one on the 40 man that brings any excitement in call ups. Going to feel pretty weird, that's for sure, after last year.

Hoskins was quite obviously struck out, and then he scored in the 9th.

Yeah I’ve seen all I need to see from Chris Owings
We did the impossible and replaced Nunez with an inferior player

There is gonna be tumble weeds blowing through here soon. On the other hand I heard the draft is looking pretty strong in spots next year.

Sox didn't do well, so it was time to troll posts directly, I guess? Owings will either play his way into a bench spot next year or he will be non tendered or outrighted.
