Keep it going BOYS & GIRLS !! As DAD would say, "SON, life at the TOP is better than the alternative !! iono iono rofl rofl rofl rofl
NOT GOOD, looks like batting practice, down 4-ZIP …… Could be a LONG DAY @ the FEN's today !!! iono iono iono iono
Tuned in just now and yikes, down 4-0 in the second? Nice job, Rick.
Moreland with another dinger. He's been awesome lately.
Another useless AB for Chavis. I hope he adapts soon. Between him, JBJ, and Leon, there are 3 almost-sure outs in the lineup.
1st and 3rd with no outs and now back-to-back K's from Chavis and JBJ. Maybe Leon gets lucky.
Nope. And there you have it. Golden scoring opportunity ruined by the 3-man pit of deadbats.
Ok, that was pure stupidty. Simple pop-up and Porcello and Leon managed to screw it up. Unreal.

It would be criminal to give up on Chavis at this point..... STAY WITH HIM ??? JBJ, on the other hand is tough to watch at the plate ??? iono iono, but the GLOVE is $$$$$$$ …… That said, the POPUP that was just BUTCHERED on the MOUND is/was so basic that it is a shame..... "LIKE, whos on first" !!!!! iono iono
Chavis AKA Kman now with 8 K in last 16 AB. In 1st 14 games only 14 Ks. He needs a quick mental adjustment or back to Pawsoxville.
Another scoring opp here. Bases juiced, one out. Make some hay here.
One run in. Bases still loaded, still one out.
Raffy drives in two more. Now tied. Very nice.
So that'll be it because now the 3-man out-machine is up.
Chavis lucks out with a walk.
King Felix is done.
Nice to see this resiliency. Earlier in the season this game would have been over at 4-0 in the first. Now they're leading 6-4.
Wow, gotta eat some crow here. JBJ with a two-run single. Sox up 6-4.
Leon with a 3 run homer! I think this is am 8 run inning now? 9-4!
And Leon with a 3-run dinger. Suddenly some success from the bottom of the lineup. Now 9-4. Who would have thought?

& as I said, NO PANIC here (YUK,YUK,YUK)…….. KING FELIX, "AIN'T what he used to be !!!! rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl rofl
So despite a bad 1st inning, Porcello has a pretty good game after all.
Porcello did well. Didn't fold. Bats bailed him out.
Raffy with yet another hit, then Chavis ruins it with a GIDP. Chavis with another 0-fer game.
Raffy is on fire.
Mariner's squeak a solo dinger, but that was it. Sox win 9-5.
Shutout to Porcello on a great gut check turnaround.
That's 10-12 folks albeit not against the greatest of competition.
GOD, I LOVE my RED SOX !!!!! thumb_u iono iono rofl rofl rofl
