Sox are losing to the Yankees 3 - 0.
German is pitching well against us - last time we torched him.
CRAP.

Now I really wish we had won last night's game . . .

Mirror image of yesterday's game. Maybe the Sox will score 4 in the 8th here. One can hope.

We are currently being - no hit.
CRAP!

Rios is just making things worse. Sox need some BP arms.

Nobody hitting today. But Xman struck out an gets first base on a dropped ball.

Top of the 8th inning
NO hitter
Yankees score again
4 - 0
More men on base
CRAP!!!!!!

REALLY wish we had won yesterday.
And the Indians are losing against the Rays.
Within an hour, the Sox will be in second place in the AL EAST.

There goes the no-no.

Perez pitched ok. 6 innings and 3 runs. Not bad for your #4-5 starter.

There you go. 4 runs in the 8th and still going.

CLE leading the Rays, too.

Hahaha. Payback is hell. Boone made the same mistake Cora made yesterday and it's costing him.

Done!!

Great comeback. Takes the sting out of Saturdays game.

SO HAPPY TO EAT CROW!!!!!!!!
Red Sox come back to score 5 runs in the bottom of the 8th inning
and SHOCK the Yankees.  From no hitter to loss for the Yankees.
AND Cleveland came back in the bottom of the 8th inning to beat the Rays.

STILL SHAKING!!!!
OMG.

Sox did to the Yankees this afternoon that the Yankees did to the Sox last night.

Yes indeed!

Rays lose. Sox 1 game up again.

Just crazy - crazy good!

Feel bad for German - he has a no hitter through 7 innings.
NO hitter to lost game.

Nathan Eovaldi had pitched a good game last night
and the bullpen lost it . . .

LOVE listening to the Yankees post-game . . .
ONLY good thing about being a Red Sox fan living in New York . . .

I was thinking of getting you a har markj, but I need your new hat  size.  Think I do that it has grown two or three sizes.  Nice going, but you missed the run total by one run.  WE  GOT FIVE AND OUTDID WHAT THEY DID TO US YESTERDAY.   And Perez did ok, thee runs in six innings and might have been fine if we could have started hitting.  We need to start hitting better come tomorrow.  But kudos  to you my friend.  Did you really think we were coming back?

As DAD would say , "SON, love our RED SOX " !!!!!!! Fun to watch !!

Wow good call!

So the Yankees needed two freak hits to take one yesterday.  Sox show them how it´s done today. 

Yankees have had two strange wins, one solid against the Sox this year.  Meanwhile the Sox beat them like a rented mule the rest of the time.  Now let´s knock Toronto out of the running.

Love their writers complaining losing 3 of 4 and sitting 9 games out. I think Costas did a couple games in the series, the Friday migraine game for sure. He is such a Yankee homer from way back.

More hope than prognostication on my part, but it did feel eerily familiar considering last night. I still can't believe Boone made the exact same mistake as Cora.

Both Cora and Boone succumbed to managerial group think in the sabermetric  era.  Virtually every modern manager would probably have done the same exact thing.  They are so wedded to the 100 pitch third time through the lineup that no one is watching the game and talking to the catcher before making the move as they would have done years ago.

Westchester

That was a lot of fun!

Someone said something about the NY press. One of the best mornings of my life the day after we beat them in game-7 back in 2004 was spent perusing the NY newspapers web sites. There were core, deep rooted beliefs broken. It was so glorious.

today was a lot of fun. 

Having fun listening to the Yankees rebroadcast of this game.
The first time I Watched the game - I basically muted Michael Kay and crew.

NOW, I am enjoying listening to Michael Kay . . .

On the side topic we've got brewing on pulling the pitchers, I absolutely agree with pulling German. He was not fooling anyone. It's the whom he replaced him with I'd have an issue with if I was a Yankees' fan. He's he's a stud, but he looked bad after 2 batters yesterday. Maybe he normally recovers well? Guessing.

Cora's was a tougher call the day before. Eovaldi did not have it. He came out throwing like he does when he's brewing up an implosion inning. At least one hit(Gardner?) was from a ball not breaking down like it would have earlier in the game, and he was doing his variation of yanking pitches. (A much more accurate version of when Richards does it.)

On the other hand, he did not have that last batter shutdown, you're not going to hit this set of pitches. Maybe he did and did not have it that time, or maybe Cora took it away from him. I don't know.

I'll put it this way. I wasn't yelling at the TV like I did when Grady Little popped out of the dugout doing his little jog instead of a pulling the pitcher stroll.

Some post-game beauties from the NewYawk faithful, HA

“If Hal won’t fire Boone and Cashman he should sell the team.”

“Boone is managing scared and has no trust in anyone.”

“Boone looked shell shocked in the post game.”

“Boone is merely an errand boy taking notification from Cashman.”

“This is a soft, broken team, unable to adjust to the style and demands of each game.”

Boone definitely looked shell shocked when the Sox started scoring.  The opposite was Cora the night before who was just annoyed.  I think Cashman and Boone are gone.  Cashman seemed to have the Midas touch for a while but that is long gone.  They do a good job of never having basement years like the Sox have every few years, but they haven't had a "good" team in years.

Hard to say on the pitch count stuff.  In the past they'd leave the guy in, he'd get beat up and he'd come back out.  Why do that when you can get some guy throwing 100 out of the pen?  Today's relievers aren't the relievers of our youth.  Guys come in to a game not expecting to thrown more than a certain amount and can leave it all out there.  When you had guys in a four man rotation throwing 130 or more pitches every time out, do you think they could have gotten most modern number 9 hitters out today?

Those quotes from the Yankees' writers & such are priceless.

Earlier in the season when Cone, O'Neill and the play-by-play guy were doing their smug, we are the great Yankees thing, someone asked Cone to compare and contrast the fan bases. He pitched for us one year in 2001 after his time on those great late 90's Yankees teams. He asked with fan-base was more desperate, or something to that effect. They were careful to not say passionate. Cone responded with a definitive "Red Sox Fans".

Me thinks he's working on some very, very dated intel. Those days are LONG GONE.  thumb_u

Mongo---I got copies of the ALDS 2018 games where we took the New Yorkers three to one in the series and the Post and Daily News were all over the Yankees, berating them over and over, calling them the Bumbinos and calling them chokers of the highest order.  Even with our record that season most "experts" picked the Yanks to beat us and so it was a tough pill to take.   The one thing all Red Sox fans must understand about that ball club and their fans.  Even though they have had droughts when they have gone a decade or more of not winning the Fall Classic, they think of nothing else.  They do NOT think of Division Titles or even American League Championships.  With the players, fans and writers it is always WORLD SERIES OR BUST.  Very high expetations but that is the way they think and have always thought.  It is god to keep that in mind.
