Now those are some ugly uniforms, Rays.

markj · August 24, 2018, 06:37:18 PM

Swihart leaves two LOBsters.

Sea Dog 23 · August 24, 2018, 07:07:53 PM

We're digging an early hole.

markj · August 24, 2018, 07:24:37 PM

Oy, what happened? Went to the store it was 1-0 Rays. Now look at it. #pitchingfail

Schloicka · August 24, 2018, 07:27:56 PM

Missed ball at 1st with 2 outs opened the flood gates. Instead of no runs they got a bunch.

markj · August 24, 2018, 07:27:57 PM

What's that, like three in a row through the 1B-2B hole? Who is screwing up the Sox shift?

markj · August 24, 2018, 08:05:06 PM

This is sad. Sox looking like losers tonight. Can't pitch, leaving LOBsters, hitting into DPs. Ugh.

Schloicka · August 24, 2018, 09:14:28 PM

Oh well. On to Saturday.

markj · August 24, 2018, 09:37:45 PM

Yanks came back twice from 2 runs down and now lead by 2 in the bottom of the 10th. So Sox will be back to an 8-1/2 game lead.

Yup. I'd add they are K-ing a lot, too. It was ugly. Mookie hasn't been himself for some time now, too. 4-4 in our last 8. Don't want the NYY smelling any hint of first place.

Let's just go get 'em tomorrow. :-X
