If Parmelee is going to get at-bats with Morneau, Mauer, Plouffe, and Doumit (and, apparently, Clete Thomas) he's going to have to play some right, some left, and some first... wherever Gardy decides he has room. This will be good for him.

I really don't like to get down on these guys, but I'm calling 2 errors tonight with this defense. Plouffe, Doumit, Parmelee -- sound like shut down D! Here's to hoping that their bats make up for it.

Yeah. That Range at OF and Plouffe at 2B are pretty scary. At least Marquis is an extreme ground ball pitcher. Just hope they hit them the other way

Could definitely be a football score tonight...

14-0? It's possible. I don't think Lester is likely to set things up for a 14-13 outcome with another bad start though.

And... Aviles slants left for a first down to start the game.

 

Sweeney is stopped for no gain. Pedroia rumbles up the middle for another long gain. And Gonzalez executes a sneak for the first score.

 

Eh, I'll stop now.

6-3... One of those grueling, low-scoring nothing but field goals games.

Sending Marquis out for the 6th was questionable at best. Sending him out for the 7th was idiotic.

Yeah I'd say questionable call. He was in triple digits pitch count after 6.

Love that hustle from Carroll!!!

I do to... Love it... However, that play ended up too close at third. Probably should have stayed At 2nd.

Agreed, if he were out that would be a huge mistake. Don't make the first or third out at third base.
