[Sea Dog 23]

How is Santana still the leadoff guy?  He’s batting about .120 after his first two games.  Maybe he is the only guy who can draw a walk.  Not many can do that.

JD is sitting again.  He complained of a wrist problem post Friday game after running the bases.

Sunday Night ESPN game against the Yankees. Not usually a good thing for the Sox. Maybe they can break that curse tonight.

[markj]

Richards is having a very tough 1st inning.

[markj]

He limited the damage, though. Sox down 2-1.

[markj]

Richards in trouble again. Bases juiced, one out.

[markj]

Again, limited damage, but the Yanks get another run. Sox down 3-1.

[Schloicka]

Need some runners to put some pressure on.

[markj]

Gonzalez ties it up with a 2-run blast.

[markj]

Verdugo with a web gem catch.

[markj]

Xander with a sac fly. Sox up 4-3.

[markj]

Taylor done good. Sox could use an insurance run or two here.

[markj]

Ok, Barnes, finish this. Sweep time.

[markj]

Dammit, Barnes. Yanks tie it up.

[Schloicka]

Poor pitch selection. Had 2 strikes with the fastball then threw a hanger that was fouled off then threw another hanger that drove in the tieing run. Should of gone back to the fastball.
