1 run is like 100 runs when the Sox offense is so impotent.

Well that’ll push it to an insurmountable 3 run lead, but what a throw from JBJ. Sheesh.

That’s why I want the kids! Watching Duran run is the most fun I’ve had watching the Sox in a week.

Just an awful AB by Xander. This team is allergic to stringing together hits.

We are rally averse this year. Just incredible.

And we get a bonus tonight - the next chapter in the Matt Barnes Experience.

High effort, yes, but Barnes just hit 96.

Is this sort of Semi-Yips that Barnes is going through? Not full blown Daniel Bardian, but....it's got to be in his head

Hey… Barnes showed fire! That is what this team needs!

Barnes threw 10 fastballs that inning and averaged 95.3 mph. He doesn't look back yet, but this is the first appearance I've felt encouraged by in a while. He's averaged 93.8 mph on the year.

Huh. I am very surprised to see Franchy K against a legit pitcher.
Add: I mean, JFC, the Sox are scuffling, have a tiny bit of juice, and you send up an automatic out to lead off, then JBJ and CVaz. Not exactly a huge chance of a comeback.

Duran - spot to play hero here.
but....nope. Not a 2022 thing to come back.

I can’t wait to be disappointed again tomorrow. Fire up those Eovaldi trade rumors.

Not exactly a huge chance of a comeback. Well to be fair Franchy was hitting for Dalbec. R/L balance was better and he's looked good so far at the plate this year. Bob is usually an automatic out, but he's extra automatic against 95+ mph fastballs. Franchy and JBJ both K'd on nasty pitches too - the ABs were fine.

Did he touch the ball? Yes, he pinch hit for another hopeless guy. Why do they have a platoon of utter futility? Year two? The upside is they have time, and I think they can cut the deficit. I mean the one they have with the Orioles. I *think* they can catch the Orioles.
