Anybody watching?
Ellsbury, Crawford, and Pedoia all took strike on, right down the middle. They've lost the urge to be aggressive. And that's getting tiresome.

Getting the lead is over rated.

Hope Middlebrooks doesn't need surgery. That would not be good.

looked like he was waving them all home, Pedroia wasn't looking at the play, he was looking at the coach

Just a thought, but we COULD, as Red Sox fans, be happy they took the lead! Or were you all too busy trying to blame people that you missed that point.

we weren't complaining, just pointing out what happened, besides, its human nature to appoint blame when things go wrong

Pedey had the play right in front of him. He had to know Royster was waiving CC and not him. #3 and 4 hitters coming up with no outs. Just plain dumb. Cost them two runs. We'll see how big it was later on. My guess is it will prove costly.

More stupid base running by Sox.

Never make the first out at third. These guys are running like little leaguers and that's probably an insult to all little leaguers.
