No Carp Magic so far this year. Bases full in 8th, up 2-0 on count, goes 2-2, fouls off s few and then K's leaving bases full.

Carp at third

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/14/2014 3:00:52 AM
Carp at 3B for the first time. Amazing that two teams like this are wedging players into positions for the first time.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/14/2014 3:00:58 AM
When Victorino comes back (which could be Friday) the #RedSox will have some interesting OF decisions to make.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/14/2014 3:01:53 AM
Now Carp is playing what amounts to deep 2B in a shift. Might as well play two places you’ve never been before

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/14/2014 3:05:02 AM
Did enough happen in that game? Very entertaining.

John Farrell felt the play was inconclusive Arguing the replay decision automatic ejection

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/14/2014 3:36:25 AM
Can’t say I’ve ever seen John Farrell quite that mad before. Fair to say he’s not a proponent of the replay system.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/14/2014 3:57:09 AM
Farrell: “On the heels of [Saturday], it’s hard to have any faith in the system to be honest with you.”

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/14/2014 4:11:13 AM
Farrell: “You would think that video replay would be conclusive. … Unfortunately we were on the wrong side of it both times.”

Very nice Boston Marathon tribute by the White Sox.

by Maureen Mullen via twitter 4/16/2014 12:02:48 AM
Chris Capuano in for the #RedSox with one on and two outs in the 9th. Suspect he’ll be out there a while if this one keeps going.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/16/2014 3:39:31 AM
Carp should have had it but that's where they miss Drew who never made a bad throw

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/16/2014 3:52:00 AM
Dislocation of left ring finger. X-rays were negative

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/16/2014 3:57:07 AM
Napoli has a dislocation. X-rays negative. Ring finger.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/16/2014 3:57:10 AM
Napoli dislocation reset. Day to day according to John Farrell

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/16/2014 4:03:49 AM
Red Sox had airtight defense last year

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/16/2014 4:48:05 AM
50 years ago today, in a 4-3 win over the Yankees, Tony Conigliaro made his MLB debut. Single off Whitey Ford in the sixth his 1st MLB hit.

by Nick Cafardo via twitter 4/16/2014 3:28:03 PM
#RedSox have Middlebrooks, Bogaerts, Pedroia and Nava taking grounders. Don’t see full pre-game infield much these days

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/16/2014 7:35:47 PM
Mike Trout has six RBIs in the first inning this season. The #RedSox have none.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/16/2014 7:46:12 PM
Then there is this: Not only haven’t the #RedSox scored in the first inning, they don’t have an extra-base hit. 8 for 48. .167/.231/.167,

#RedSox : Pedroia 2B, Bogaerts SS, Ortiz DH, Gomes RF, Sizemore LF, Pierzynski C, Nava 1B, Roberts 3B, Bradley Jr. CF + Buchholz RHP

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/16/2014 8:06:07 PM
Tanaka superb for Yanks today. 10 ks 8-inning shutout vs. Cubs.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/16/2014 8:16:20 PM
Pedroia has the first extra-base hit in the first inning for the #RedSox this season, a leadoff double.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/17/2014 12:13:04 AM
The #RedSox have scored in the first inning and Xander Bogaerts finally has an RBI. Turn the pigeons loose.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/17/2014 12:15:18 AM
Bogaerts had the most ABs in the majors this season (50) without an RBI before that single to drive in Pedroia.

Bogaerts SS
Ortiz DH
Gomes RF

Nava 1B
Roberts 3B
Bradley Jr. CF

WHITE SOX (8-6)
Eaton CF
Semien 2B
Gillaspie 3B
Abreu 1B
Dunn DH
Viciedo RF
De Aza LF
Ramirez SS
Nieto C
Pitching: LHP John Danks (1-0, 4.15).

Game time: 8:05 p.m.

TV/Radio: NESN / WEEI.

White Sox vs. Buchholz: Konerko 7-15, Ramirez 3-14, De Aza 2-7, Dunn 0-6, Viciedo 0-6, Gillaspie 0-2, Flowers 1-2.

Stat of the Day: Xander Bogaerts and Dustin Pedroia have 105 at-bats (22 with runners in scoring position) and have one RBI.

Notes: The Red Sox have lost three straight, four of five and eight of 11. They have not lost four straight since the 2012 team gave up at the end of the season and lost eight in a row. … Buchholz is 2-2, 4.29 against the White Sox in six starts but has allowed only five earned runs over 28 innings in his last four starts. … Danks is 3-6, 5.37 in nine career starts against the Red Sox. The last two — 10.2 IP, 17 H, 12 ER — were bad ones. That included a game last August at Fenway Park. … The Red Sox have yet to score in the first inning.

It’s a balmy 61 degrees in Chicago for first pitch. Well compared to the last two days anyway.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/18/2014 12:11:15 AM
Was secretly hoping the White Sox would play “Freeze Frame” when Bogaerts came up. Alas, no.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/18/2014 12:14:53 AM
Hold on, I’ll consult my list of when players will get hits // RT @Eroths711 : @PeteAbe Any idea when we'll see Bogaerts start to hit more?

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/18/2014 12:16:33 AM
Hey, who's catching?
Flowers for Sale!
(Sorry, I crack me up!)

by Maureen Mullen via twitter 4/18/2014 12:28:33 AM
Three innings and no hits for either the #RedSox or #WhiteSox . Lester and Sale are dealing.

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/18/2014 12:52:27 AM
“Heavyweight bout tonight,” said @JLester31 . Here’s the story on the #RedSox win: bostonglobe.com/sports/2014/04…

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/18/2014 5:46:43 AM
Xander Bogaerts has two home runs in 100 ABs. Worth noting they traveled 887 feet. That power is going to start to play regularly. #redsox

by Pete Abraham via twitter 4/18/2014 7:01:07 AM
Lots of Boston-bound runners on this flight from Chicago. People passing by the gate wishing them well. Neat to see. #BostonStrong

Holt up, playing 3b, batting 9th.

by Maureen Mullen via twitter 4/18/2014 7:46:38 PM
Ortiz not in lineup. Farrell said scheduled off day. #redsox

by Maureen Mullen via twitter 4/18/2014 8:22:47 PM
Farrell on Sun 7pm/Mon 11am games: We don't have a choice, ESPN has rights to those games, can schedule as they choose. #redsox
