The Sox lost interest in playing after being up 8-2. That's TLR's fault.

12 runs...Only 4 earned because of 4 errors...Sloppy ass sh*t. Killed all our momentum impressively...on our homefield no less.

TA has been a defensive liability this year. Crazy amount of errors as a team

Champions don't chump that way. They need to lose that attitude quickly.

It was like watching a nightmare unfold before my eyes. I kept saying, ok just get the next man out and all is well. Can't remember now how many times I said this.

Exactly what I have been thinking. TA needs to show some leadership in getting that corrected.

I’m glad I fell asleep and missed that live. I was livid just watching the condensed game so a slow burn would have broke me.

Abreu by a toe. Sox win 4-1. Cleveland rally falls short. Nice slammer by Sheets and great effort by Giolitto.

The 9th wasn't as slow of a burn as you would think. The four runs off one swing to tie it made it feel more like a surreal and unexpected gut punch. The worst part of the game (IMO) was watching us not scratch across the game winning run in the 10th after loading the bases with one out. After that, you had to know it was not our night any longer. Watching Naylor be the guy to win it, after tying it in his previous AB was also rather stunning.

Also, the way we controlled the entire game with such a firm grasp. Even at 5-2. I felt like Cleveland had no shot. Much less at 8-2 after Pollock's home run.

I was more completely shocked than angry.

When something that flukey happens. I tend to regard it as an aberration and don't sweat it too much. It was important to bounce back tonight, and they did behind a great Giolito performance. Along with some timely hitting as well.

The defense needs to clean things up, though. I do agree that part becomes concerning here shortly if it's happening into June.

A series win against the Guardians will look nice on the resume - setting the Yankees up on Thursday afternoon for a little Dyan Cease.
Velasquez has looked sharp in 3 out of 4 outings - including the last two starts. I'm eager to see if he can show some consistency and get the Sox a win tonight.

I was very confused and taken off guard when I saw it cancelled for COVID-19. I was like "WTF... is this August of 2020 again?"

Sure but what can you do with one of if not the best hitters on the team? He can't be DH.

I’m not saying bench him. He just needs to figure this shit out
