"regular" lineup in there today, at least as regular as it gets. I think this config probably gets them the best bang for the buck, although I could make a case for JBJ out and have Nunez DH instead, although it's a righty (not that JBJ can hit either lefties or righties).

Divers with a big shot 5-1

E-Rod doing well thru 4 but he's not gonna get through 6 with his usual pitch count.... ::)

markj · June 17, 2018, 05:21:24 PM

E-Rod done good, although he's still wasting pitches. 113 through 6 is not efficient.

JBJ with a rare solo dinger. Sox up 6-2.

markj · June 17, 2018, 05:23:30 PM

Xander with a 2-run dinger now. Sox up 8-2.

markj · June 17, 2018, 05:53:28 PM

Beni with a sac fly. Now 9-2.

markj · June 17, 2018, 06:07:28 PM

Workman with back to back walks. 2 outs now, so maybe he can get out of it.

markj · June 17, 2018, 06:10:56 PM

No such luck. One Seattle run in. Workman is gone. Velazquez in.

markj · June 17, 2018, 06:13:27 PM

Velazquez ends the inning on one pitch.

markj · June 17, 2018, 06:27:31 PM

Velazquez breezes through the 9th on 9 pitches. Sox win 9-3.

Red Sox BEAT the Mariners 9 - 3!
Yankees LOSE to the Rays 3 - 1.

Good day!

At least our Sox split the series with the Mariners.

Off day tomorrow!

markj · June 17, 2018, 06:30:19 PM

ALE all tied up again.

We won and that is good news and makes me happy.....TODAY. I'm not sure it makes up for our two shitty performances the previous days, blowing a 6-3 lead when we decided to stop scoring after a six run third. That has happened many times before and it has to stop. Then Saturday we looked DOA the whole game. We should have taken three out of four and pissed away a chance to do that. Thanks Meatball and you Saturday night duds. Minnesota next and the way they shit their pants every time they see a Yankee uniform it would be nice if we could make shit when they see ours. To make that happen we have to take care of the two game series. Simple as that.
