Terrible day all-around. We pretty much deserved that.

They say "you can't win them all..." but there was no excuse NONE for losing this game tonight.
NONE.
Twins starting a rookie.
Lynn on the mound for the Sox
Grab a 4-0 lead
1-10 with runners in scoring position
And get beat by a guy hitting all of .170! Not .270....170. 😡
Embarrassing.
5th game this year the Sox had a lead in the 7th inning or later and lost.
Second time Mr. Bummer has been directly responsible.
Hope they can win the rubber game Wednesday because New York will not be a picnic.
If Giolito is pitching, hold your breath because it is a (dreaded) early afternoon game.Last edited by Lipman 1; 05-18-2021, 11:33 PM.

I guess the "good news" if you want to call it that, is the game didn't go into extra inning forcing the Sox to use more pitchers in a game they probably wouldn't have won anyway given their track record under the bizarre, bastardized rules.Last edited by Lipman 1; 05-19-2021, 12:20 AM.

Not understanding why you let Bummer put a guy on first and then bring Hendriks in. Whatever the case he has been awful. There is something to be said about the energy of the team and when the manager sends it in a negative direction things like this are expected. He better get on the side of his players quick.

Tony's at the mercy of his bullpen just like every other manager. His only reliable is Kopech who's coming off TJ and can't be used a lot. Bummer and Hendriks are semi-reliable. Everybody else is white knuckle time. Time to bring up some arms and start sorting them out? Does Katz deserve the halo we've fitted him with?

Disappointed with the fact that the Sox couldn't add on against the Twins bullpen. Still, I felt good with a two run lead and five outs to go. Hoping for a strong outing from Giolito this afternoon.
