Alvarez doesn't score from 2nd on a 22 hopper to the right fielder. Lost run

Weiters fails to attempt to block the ball in the 7th. Go ahead runner gets to second and scores.

This is in addition to the Davis/Machado fiasco on the bases yesterday and the botched rundown on Saturday. Very sloppy ball lately.

I know a duck is a duck, but Davis flailing away at a splitter in the dirt with the bases loaded and less than 2 outs doesn't help.

Red Sox are over Par tonight.

True. Or going around on a pitch that almost hits him in the chest. It's like he's not seeing the ball..

I really think you are being pretty harsh. My opinion.

Alvarez takes second on a should be single. Stays out of the double play. Run scores.

The Jays are under par. Lol

Jones came up with runners on 2nd and 3rd and less than two outs twice, and got the job done both times.

Agree the Wieters failure to block Gallardo's pitch was pretty lame.

Yep, he made contact. Something this team doesn't do enough of.

I have no stats to back it up, but it seems like Wieters likes to wave his glove to scoop low and away instead of getting out and blocking pitches in the dirt. Very lazy when it happens.

He's been doing it for weeks. Davis is scuffling big time.

Wieters just did it again. Let the go ahead run get into scoring position.

Schoop's grounder between first and second was a little thing. Jones going first to third was a little thing. He was lucky to score on Manny's grounder but the little things created the opportunity.

A tad reminiscent of Game Six of the 1971 World Series ...... except that instead of scoring on a shallow fly ball that he had no business scoring on, Jones scored on a ground ball to the pitcher that he had no business scoring on.

This analogy will be useful forever, but I can't deny, I thought it too.

It was applicable on Sunday too, except the first to 3rd was 1st to 2nd on a sac bunt and the scoring from third on a sac flay was Alvarez trotting home on Remold's homer. Otherwise, it was just like Game 6.
