Andrelton Simmons tested positive for COVID and has been placed on the IL. Let’s hope it’s isolated and doesn’t spread to either team.

Can someone explain to me what the deal is with Darwinzon Hernández? I looked at his BB rate on fangraphs and it looks ugly to me.
I’m not super familiar with him.

Filthy stuff but just has no idea where it's going when it leaves his hand. The dreams of him being a starting MLB pitcher are long gone I think he needs to get his BB/9 below 5.00 to have any sort of consistent long-term success as a reliever.

Arroyo leading off to make sure we stay on track with an 8/9 hitter getting the most PAs every game.

Are the umpires trying to be replaced? Awful...

not gonna lie, kinda love Plawiecki bunting in a 7 inning game where scoring early feels even more important. Even better that Maeda flubbed fielding it.

That was a BS crooked number, but I'll take it.

Eovaldi should be throwing his FB up around the letters. Maybe 8 guys in MLB can make hard contact with 98 up there and two of them are on the Sox.

He’s good for a walk an inning but the stuff is so alive that he doesn’t really get hit I probably trust him more than most. I get the hesitancy and frustration some feel with him though. Seems like teams are putting better swings on him than they did last year though

Lots of hard contact against Eovaldi today. Hope it keeps finding enough gloves.

Josh Taylor warming up in a 7 inning game? Gross

Eovaldi labored but he got out of it.

Sox expected hits while scoring 3 runs on 4 hits: 2.13 Twins while scoring 2 runs on 3 hits: 1.67.
I haven't watched any of it so far, just woke up.

Why do teams get an extra guy if they're playing by Babe Ruth rules and only going 7 innings?

Completely forgot there was a game this afternoon as I watched (in disappointment) Coinbase debut on the market.
LOVE seeing this: Arroyo 2/3 Verdugo 1/3 Marwin 1/1 with 1 walk Renfroe 1/2 Cordero 1/2
