GAME #153, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 2018, BOSTON RED SOX AT NEW YORK YANKEES

[markj]

This is the kind of at bat Martinez was signed for.  Let’s see what he can do.  Yankees going to the pen.

He did what Red Sox do...a GIDP. Luckily it didn't end the inning and drove in a run at least.

[markj]

Good inning for Wright and Holt with a nice grab.

[BoSoxFanNY]

DANG IT - Hembree.
Stepped out for a bit - AND DAMN!
2 pitches = Grand slam.

Yankees 6 - Sox 5

I WANT TO WIN THIS GAME.
Enough already.

Making me very nervous for the postseason IF we can't
beat the Yankees now.  NOT boding well .. .

[markj]

Swing at something!!!

[markj]

Argh. Swihart watched two meatballs float by and then swings and misses. Nice AB.

[markj]

Another good inning for Wright.

[markj]

JBJ finds the short porch. Nice. Tie game.

[longgame]

Here’s the chance for a big inning.  Let’s see if they can at least get another run or two in.

[markj]

Bases loaded, one out. Ready for the GIDP? Or will they actually do something right?

[longgame]

Wow, we get a big break for a change!  Up 2 and a man on 3rd,

[markj]

Wow, Yankees screw up and give up a free run.

[longgame]

Classic Sox-Yanks - lots of scoring, bizarre plays, 3 hours in and still in the top of the 7th...

[Schloicka]

Not sure why the center fielder was throwing to 3rd? Just needed to toss it back in to 2nd. Wasn't deep enough for Beni to tag up. Sometimes even pro players have a brain cramp.

[markj]

Wright is dealing. Bring him back out.

[markj]

At least Leon didn't end the inning. Pretty sad AB, though.
