If the Sox lose this series their season should be just about over. They face another team who owns them this week in Detroit followed by another series at KC which means an automatic 2 losses.

Atta boy, Tyler. Now add on a few more to make it a little more comfortable.

The Sox have 32 home runs from their catchers this year.

Great job by Sale to hold down a hot offense. The fuckin bullpen better hold this 4 run lead.

I must have said MENDOZA just like McBain would, about twenty times last night.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

They eeked that one out but a win is a win. They can't keep letting the Royals hang around. Someone has to get a hit with guys in scoring position and put this team away.

Big start for Santiago tomorrow. Hopefully the Angels can take care of business tonight and put a little more distance between the Sox and the Tigers.

4-0 Angels in the first inning against Verlander. You just never know in baseball.

5-0 Angels in the 3rd. 5 earned for Verlander.

How is that possible with the great Justin Verlander pitching?!

_________________

I think Verlanders not right. I recommend the Tigers shut him down for the season. That would be best.

I know this is a roller coaster ride for Sox fans. But if anyone needs a reality check, just start following a few Tigers fans on Twitter. They feel just like we do.

Beckham 2B

Santiago P

Still can't understand why De Aza and not Wise in is in CF and why Beckham is hitting 9th.

Because DeAza is a better CF.

Agree aboot Beckham.

Now we're attempting to sacrifice in the first fucking inning. From second to third yet! I really doubt Santiago is capable of winning this one 1-0. Better try to play for a few more runs. And on top of all that, they don't have a single guy capable of laying down a good one on a regular basis.

They should cut this Olmedo right after the game. Are you really telling me there isn't some turd at one of the minor league affiliates that can play an adequate second and short and lay down a good bunt 25% of the time? Maybe that guy would have enough fucking brains to hustle down the line.

They killed another at-bat with stupid bunting. The first pitch of the at-bat was the one to drive instead he was getting squeeze signs.

That was easy money. Sox could have a nice cushion after this weekend, if they could beat the teams they should beat.

Fuck Edwards and Zobrist

This game would almost definitely be tied right now, if not a White Sox winner, had DeAza just been able to go up there and put a ball in play. Instead the manager insinuated himself and DeAza missed the first- and best- pitch worrying about a sign he should never even have been thinking about. Then a two strike hole, because of course he isn't a good bunter. And finally, STRIKE THREE. This is a manager's loss 100%. How many outs were given up on bunts and on the bases. No respect for the out. No fucking respect.
