Guess Cora went to the well too often with Valdez. Would have thought he'd use Richards.

Uh...what is Cora's idea here? Whitlock and Richards were warming...now we go Valdez who was great yesterday but threw 22 pitches? I don't get it I think he’s got his eyes on the next 3 days Then why let Whitlock and Richards warm at all? And why Davis now? This was so winnable...maaaaaaan

I'd say that the chance to win this game is slipping away.

Why get Whitlock warmed up if you weren't gonna bring him in? Dumb decision by AC.

Had the offense not had 2 major squanders we wouldn't have seen Valdez in the 9th. Why did Cora go to Valdez and stick too long with him? Did he really need to go beyond 3 hitters for him? It's obvious as hell when he doesn't got it.

I'd say that the chance to win this game is slipping away. NGL one run against Clase would have been a tall order, that guy is sticky-stuff-Barnes nasty...4 is beyond reach

Ugh. Bullpen kept them in the game with 6 innings of 1-run ball while they clawed their way back, only to have Dr. Valdez’s Mr. Hyde show up.

I think Cora has created a new relief pitcher role: sacrificial lamb.
Valdez had his second game this season as a sacrificial lamb. Ryan Weber has a long sacrificial lamb role in his only Sox outing this year.
Really don't understand why Richards didn't get 1st crack at the 9th.

"hey you threw 2IP of 0R ball, nice...see you tomorrow" Richards was warming in the seventh, right? Why not just let him finish the game? Painful...

Anthony Rizzo makes the final out for the Yankees. Squandered opportunity for the Sox, but no ground lost.

Not gonna lie: any reasonable man should be happy with winning 2 of 3 while 12 players are on the covid-IL...but this still feels like a wasted opportunity
