I think Lowry went out drinking before the game. -

Too many lefties!
Too many road games!
Too much jet lag!
How about they are simply not playing good baseball, Theo left them high and dry in the pen, and Francona didn't have these guys prepared since the get go... -

Don't worry AL, they are already working the DL List again. Worked last season why not again ? -

Theo has been searching for a long term solution to SS since 2004.
Problem is he had 3 that he let go......and now this......again.....nothing new really..... -

I'd say he'll be going out drinking afterwards too. -

In Response to Re: Game Thread - Friday Night vs Twins - Wakefield vs Baker:Hi Joel - If Baker was pitching from the stretch it would have been easier for Gonzo to get a better pitch....either way, they were down 3.....I am not saying no way don't run since it was early in the game but.....you need to get a better jump than that....if you aren't getting a good read then do not risk it.....it was bad risk taking everything into account

I hear you, Andrew. All I'm saying is you can't assume Gonzalez would have homered. -

Anyone else noticed how bad the Sox are on Friday night home games the last 2-3 years? It's brutal, you can almost guarantee a loss every week it seems. Don't know what the numbers are officially, but I know they lose a lot. -

9-2 Good night everybody, you have been great. Have to pick up my daughter from her school dance. Waiting in the car for her is more exciting than watching this 170 million dollar team. How the hell do two pitchers balk in one night. I guess Spring Training was not an aberition. -

Didn't think it could get any worse than yesterday but it looks like it has. This is a horror show. -

Lowrie's errors are an anomaly IMO. Didn't he go over a couple of hundred chances without one a couple of years ago? -

Why didn't Gonzo make that play in the bases loaded inning? We might not be in this mess now.

It has become apparent to most people that tito has lost the team and they simply are going through the motions. If he continues much longer it is going to get embarrassing. I hope the sox management sees this and puts this too an end BEFORE this season is lost. I saw this coming end of last year and ST backed up what I had suspected.
I actually feel sorry for Terry. I think he tries hard, he just isn't that good of a baseball tactician and is weak with the players. Some time a team needs a good kick in the butt and Tito is not the guy for this. I am sure with the bad start there is trouble in the clubhouse and a lot of finger pointing. This is why a managerial change is necessary soon.

No Doubt Joel....Everything changes everything else is one way to look at things.....but let's say Jake stole 2b.....would he have even pitched to Gonzo w/ 1b open?
