This team all of a sudden striking out at an alarming rate. 14 last night 8 thru 5 innings so far.

Mookies 2nd HR with 1 on .Sox. 4-3

Bad base running by Beni not tagging up on the fly ball to right field. Looks like he left early and had to go back.

Ump screens Beni from being able to see the catch - now that's ridiculous.

Even more ridiculous was Febles not moving to be able to tell Beni what was happening.

Just can't seem to catch fire.  A week ago when they loaded the bases you expected a grand slam, now you hope they don't hit into a DP!  Let's hope they can hang on.  I wonder if Kimbrel is done for the week?

Yeah, I was wondering about that.

The Bruins better step up their game - I'm not ready for a first round exit.

Not the 3rd base coaches job to tell him to go. If the coach needs to tell you then it's to late or you shouldn't be playing. Plus how would the coach know if a runner is blocked out by an ump? I've never seen that in my life on a tag up at 3rd or any other base for that matter. All Beni needed to do was follow the ball. He left early so he didn't follow the flight of the ball. And if it is the 3rd base coaches job to tell him to go why did Beni leave the bag before the ball was caught because he wouldn't of been told to go yet!
