Another good lineup...…. All eyes are on the 3rd baseman & his GLOVE !!!  Keep it going boys !! thumb_u rofl rofl rofl rofl

[Schloicka]

Porcello not missing any bats. Lucky only 2-0.

[markj]

Swihart with a rare solo dinger. 3-2

[markj]

Porcello just doesn't have it tonight. Can't put batters away.

[markj]

Lucky DP limits the damage.

[Schloicka]

Only guy that scored that inning was guy who got on by the Xman error. Ok overall.

[markj]

Clean inning there.

[Schloicka]

Porcello should be done. Gave up 3 earned runs. Was only supposed to pitch 5 innings.

[markj]

Sox get lucky again.

[markj]

Bases juiced, Donaldson up. What could possibly go wrong?

[markj]

Lucky again. Indians have certainly blown some chances.

[markj]

Isn't that Swihart's second K while looking?

[markj]

Beni ties it up, but then ends the inning trying to stretch a single into a double. Questionable call, though.
