Keystone Kops again. And Eovaldi is gone with only 63 pitches? WTF?

I think we're re-understanding the whole "championship caliber defense" thing.  sigh

markj

Santana is in? Really? Is Cora intentionally trying to lose this game?

markj

At least they won't get no-hit. Any bets on whether or not they get Kike home from 3B?

1st and 3rd, one out. And Cora sends in Shaw, who has done jack shit. Then again, the whole team has done jack shit lately, so....

whole-lee crap!!!  The manager just single handedly killed a rally. UFB!!!!   It's gonna get really ugly now.

As Shaw began his swing I thought “thank God, he didn’t hit into a DP” but there’s Verdugo, delivering that great Sox running game.  Now I’m guessing Kike goes to 2B, Schwarber to LF and Dalbec to 1B?

Doesn’t matter, that was truly their last chance.  How fitting - leave men on base while getting thrown out on the bases.

I’m just beside myself.  Burned up the lineup and killed a rally all at once.  Trying to hard and now they’re toast.

Cora's magic has turned to dust. He's now making things worse with every move.

In truth, I have no problem with trying the hit and run but not with Shaw at the plate.  Shaw is not a contact hitter.

So when does Cora send in Perez? Might as well go out with a bang.
