Wow, 2-54 with RISP. Now that is something to hang your hat on. ::)

markj · July 16, 2017, 08:56:38 PM

Well now 3-55, so that's a step in the right direction.

Schloicka · July 16, 2017, 09:09:08 PM

Hanley and JBJ let him off the hook. Could of been a big inning.

Schloicka · July 16, 2017, 09:22:57 PM

Does Price come out for the 8th inning? Has 96 pitches. Didn't look sharp in the 7th. Barnes was warming up. Big guns coming up for the Yanks in the 8th. I stay with Price and hope he can suck it up for 1 more inning.

Amazing catch by JBJ. Preserves the shutout.

Was a great catch. Kimbrel time coming up with a cushion this time.

Augh!! Kimbrel the Drama Queen. Tying run at the plate now.

Whew, game over. Yankees shut out for the first time this season. Unlike the Sox. At least they split the series. Price was on and they got just enough offense finally.

Schloicka · July 16, 2017, 10:12:55 PM

I'm happy with a split. That's all I was counting on before the series. It wasn't pretty but I'll take it. On to Monday. Lets go E-Rod.

Looks like the good Tanaka is pitching tonight - CRAP!

Sox score 3 runs!
Phew!
Mookie Betts 2 run home run.

GLAD to eat crow.
Tanaka actually pitched well tonight
and thankfully Price pitched better.

This may have been Price's best game of the season.

Save for Jackie's fantastic catch to rob Judge of a booming homer I was half comatose and totally spent tonight. I hardly could force myself to cheer loudly or show any emotion. Saturday and Sunday's first game took all of my energy away, but Price looked like the Price we remember----and we can sure use him in that role. Betts had a big game with three hits and a two run job, but can he sustain it and not devolve into another drought. If so he might spark the team. The only hope I felt tonight for an upset was that Choker was sealed on the bench---and that's where he needs to be for awhile. He has become a minus, not only not hitting but taking his lousy hitting into the field with him. He cost us two runs in the first game and was so putrid on Saturday that he might have been one of the two or three culprits that cost us the game Saturday. Keep his ass on the bench.
