I guess we were working on it at the same time!  Go ahead and delete one, rather than us both trying to and deleting both!

[Bill-806]

NEEDLESS to say, a MUST win today ……  Can the YANK$ lose 3 in a row ????

[markj]

The Sox have some very talented hitters. They hardly ever miss an infielder.

[longgame]

Usual run support for Sale, none.  Can you tell he's PO'd by his upper 90 velocity?

[markj]

Finally scraped up a few runs. Lots of warning track power on display in that inning.

[markj]

Moreland with a massive 2-run blast. Sox up 5-0.

[markj]

Sale done after 7 scoreless innings. Kelly with a clean 8th.

[markj]

Barnes with a clean 9th. Sox win 5-0. Good game all around.

[longgame]

Nice win and an off day at home. 

[BoSoxFanNY]

AND the Sox win 5 - 0.
Chris Sale pitches a gem AND he got run support!

[BoSoxFanNY]

For all the JBJ haters -
he had a good day at the plate.
3 for 3, with three singles.

[BoSoxFanNY]

DANG IT - the Yankees have tied it up with the Rays.
7 - 7. 
The Rays WERE leading the Yankees by 3 runs at one point.

Let's GO Rays.

[elktonnick]

For all the JBJ haters -
he had a good day at the plate.
3 for 3, with three singles.

While I applaud JBJ performance today, we have seen this happen before and must remind ourselves of the adage of the blind squirrels and acorns.

RAYS SWEEP  8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)
