I'm not impressed with Cease, at all. Stuff is solid, not insane. Nasty slider, yes, but fastball isn't anything crazy. Command is horrendous. I guess that makes the Sox lineup even less impressive.

Amateur hitting coach advice for Story.....bag the bat over the back set up, it isn't working. And that is just for starters..................

I'd be more impressed with Cease/interested in blowing the system up for him if this Red Sox lineup weren't garbage.

Valdez with a nice play up the middle. I didn't think he had it in him.

Looks like Bobby D has improved his footwork around first. Last year he would frequently get himself off balance on a play like that and end up falling on his stomach.

Casas AND Abreu are sorely missed in this lineup

that was the exact same sequence as the last at bat for Bobby. Not good.

Of course Ceddanne Rafaela draws the first walk of the game for the Sox

Yes. Even this team can't screw this up !

Of course Ceddanne Rafaela draws the first walk of the game for the Sox …and Devers the second….that is pretty tough to do with those two

Ceddanne the Entertainer with a fabulous running catch followed up by a Duran-esque hustle double, running on Benintendi's Damon-esque arm. Ceddanne with a much-needed 8th inning leadoff walk, after last night's late-inning 10 pitch pa with hbp Before today his Pit/PA was 3.98, which would put him 20th in MLB (Justing Turner is #1 with 4.26)

Not sure what the numbers say, but I haven't enjoyed September Justin Turner much.
And obviously the bone bruise is taking a toll, not sure why they haven't shut him down.

A Bummer
Do we never steal with a fast runner on?
I'm on a kayak Airbnb vacation. Tuned in to see squanders. Ugh

I think I am going to celebrate the end of this team like the 2018 World Series champs when it is all over.
What a flippin' year.

If that's the only score, on essentially the shortest possible HR, does that make this the lowest scoring game ever?
