Series Thread: M's @ Red Sox 6/17 - 6/19

Can't score just two runs in the first two innings and get blanked the rest of the way and hope to win in Boston, no matter who's on the mound. They had chances and just didn't get it done.

Hard to understand how many pitches right over the plate that were not called strikes. At least 3 Ks taken away from us yesterday, and I think it changed the whole game. Hitters see more pitches, the lineup turns over more often, pitch count goes up, etc.

Bases loaded with no outs and only coming away with 1 run as well as runners on 2nd & 3rd with no outs and not getting any also were big reasons we lost. That stuff has been a problem most of the year.

This team wont win if Cano, Cruz and Seagar are off on the same day which is what happened yesterday.

You had to figure it would take 6 runs to win a game this weekend. Not sure if they can do it off Price today but that's what i think it will take.

Outside of Kuma these starters are just bad right now. Every single start is a constant labor for all of them

Oh wow, 1 run against the Red Sox in Fenway didn't hold up. Imagine that.

Mariners lose 2-1 and blowers and Sims call it a good game. They lost idiots!! It was not a good game.

It wasn't a good outcome, but it wasn't a bad game. They had 8 hits and their big 3 had half of them. Holding down one of the most potent offenses in the game today to just 2 runs in their own house is about as good as you can hope for. They simply didn't get timely hits when they needed it and had a few bad calls along the way.

Loses are always bad or you are not playing for the right thing.

I was lucky enough to miss another loss. Instead my wife and I went to an early movie and had In & Out for lunch. This was the temp right outside of M's spring training stadium around 1.

Texas is now 16-4 in 1 run games. We have lost 7 of our last 8 1 run games. That's why I have never been a huge fan of run differential in baseball.
