  • *Official* 9/16 No Party Tonight Postgamer

    The offense needs to refuel. This was not the night to swing the bat.

    Yup, it was a dud where we just were K´ing left & right and got absolutely no offense. We just have to regroup and start another streak. taking 3 of 4 from the Twinkies ain´t bad at all. GO SOX!!!

      A leadoff single, immediately erased by bad base running (or did Grandal mistake a hit-and-run sign for a take?), a solo HR, and that's it. No-hit by the bullpen. Wonder what the game plan was.

        Further proof that the person who coined the phrase, "you can't win them all," knew what he/she was talking about. Tough match-up this afternoon, but the 2020 Sox have regularly bounced back from the infrequent dud.

          And today is Maeda vs Lopez. Yikes. The best thing we can say is that at least first place is not on the line tonight.

            I think so many are worried (even after the 2nd game win or now after 3rd game loss). Regardless of what happens in this series, Twinkies aren't leaving town the the division lead. Sox will lead the division after this series is over. And this last game today will be for nullifying their tiebreaker. After this, only Cleveland holds tiebreakers against us. That shall be seen to next week. For now though, no need to panic!

              Yes, on paper this looks like a loss. But of all the major sports, baseball is the least predictable. I expect RR to have a quick hook today if López shows control problems.

                The Sox offense has a tendency to bounce back after poor showings. Hopefully they can do that against Maeda.

                  Besides if they win today they clinch a tie for the playoff slot Someone said we own the tiebreakers. Seems like a good reason to go all in today.

                    And if the Sox lose this afternoon, remain calm. No reason to panic over a split.

                        The last time the Sox lost 2 games in a row was the DH on August 15th against the Cardinals.

                          No worries,. Homefish started a bustwatch for Robert. He's sure to go 5/5 with 5 HR now.

                              Actually the last time that the Sox lost 2 games in a row was their series in Minny. They won game 1 on Aug 31 then lost the next two games on Sep 1 & 2.
