Listen, we still got 0:00:17.440 --> 0:00:20.560 two more games to go. We want the series win. 0:00:20.600 --> 0:00:23.880 We don't just want a win, we want a series 0:00:23.920 --> 0:00:26.320 win over the Dodgers. Here the best team in baseball, 0:00:26.360 --> 0:00:29.160 But the Red Sox took it to the Dodgers here 0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:33.120 tonight in la final score. Red Sox win nine to four. 0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:37.040 Record improves the fifty eight and fifty one, twenty fifth 0:00:37.040 --> 0:00:40.320 comeback win of the year. The most Major League Baseball 0:00:40.360 --> 0:00:43.000 up to this point is the Diamondbacks for thirty three. 0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:46.720 But what an incredible month for the Red Sox. Happy August, 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:50.440 by the way, ladies and gentlemen, Happy August. We have 0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:52.600 now flipped a calendar. Hopefully they can keep this going. 0:00:52.600 --> 0:00:54.880 But what an incredible month of July for the Red Sox. 0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:59.320 Their best win percentage ever in franchise history twenty one 0:00:59.360 --> 0:01:02.480 and four. On month they won twenty one games in 0:01:02.520 --> 0:01:06.240 a month back in two thousand and four, Man oh man, 0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:08.640 all right, that August in two thousand and four still 0:01:08.720 --> 0:01:12.440 lives on in my memories. But this one is absolutely 0:01:12.480 --> 0:01:14.920 gonna live on in my memory for a very long time. 0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:19.559 And hey, you know what, again, while that final score 0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:21.600 may look may seem like it was an easy win 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.720 here tonight, it was anything but that. For at least 0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:28.000 the first half of the game. Ranger Suarez wasn't great 0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:31.720 here tonight. Didn't have another once again, not having another 0:01:31.760 --> 0:01:34.160 long outing. He was giving up hard hits, didn't really 0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:37.000 seem to have a great feel for the breaking stuff, 0:01:37.120 --> 0:01:40.800 was leaning more into the fastball, tight pitches. Chad Tracy 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:43.360 ended up taking him out before going up against Otani 0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:47.960 again in the fifth inning. Geovanni Moran ended up being 0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:52.400 the latest victim of show. Hey Oty, I personally would 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:55.600 have kept Ranger Suarez in the game once again, was 0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:57.800 working with a limited pitch count. Remember he just came 0:01:57.840 --> 0:02:00.400 off the il not too long ago, but there should 0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:03.080 have been a bit more room to play with. In 0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:05.680 this one last outing, he had sixty four pitches, so 0:02:06.040 --> 0:02:08.000 I was thinking he was gonna have like anywhere from 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:10.519 seventy to eighty here tonight. So I don't know. I 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:13.840 would have kept him in ended up working out in 0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:15.880 the end. It is what it is, But out of 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:21.160 the bullpen, Holy Calabrian BeO really stepping up here tonight. Bullpen. 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:24.840 BeO is amazing. Honestly, just keep him in this kind 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:26.799 of a role. I mean, this is the first time 0:02:26.840 --> 0:02:31.280 we've seen him come in this late in the game, right, 0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:33.560 you know, we've seen the openers Ray he ends up 0:02:33.600 --> 0:02:35.680 coming in and like you know, the second inning, third inning, 0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:38.960 But this is the latest he's come in. Unless I'm 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:42.120 completely forgetting about a start, but he has just been 0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:44.320 amazing out of the bullpen. I don't know if it's 0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:47.960 just it's the more simple approach, right, he seems to 0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:51.560 just focus really on two or three pitches. I don't know. 0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:54.640 I'm guessing that's the key for him in my opinion. 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:58.160 Maybe a little a little something different with the mentality 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:00.560 warming up in the bullpen. I'm not exactly sure, but 0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:04.040 Bo has been amazing out of the bullpen. He was 0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:06.440 able to hold it down while the Dodgers did have 0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:08.560 the lead at one point. He was able to hold 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:11.160 it down long enough for the Red Sox to get 0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:14.560 an outburst of runs. Five runs of the seventh inning 0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:17.440 SETI with an incredible night. Just letting you all know 0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:21.800 he is my player of the game here tonight. Holy cow, 0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:26.520 what a night for mister Sadam Rafaela finishing the night 0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:29.320 three for five, couple of Ribi's, a massive home run, 0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:33.800 two run, go ahead home run in the seventh. What 0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:36.800 else does he have to do? Many? How many more 0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.520 big stages does Set he have to go on to 0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:41.720 prove that he is one of the best all around 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:47.680 players in the game. I don't know, but SETI absolutely 0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:55.680 amazing here tonight. And Ramonasterio had himself a good night 0:03:55.720 --> 0:04:00.440 as well. One for five here tonight, had to run 0:04:00.480 --> 0:04:03.720 double great defense as well, both sides of the ball. 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:06.640 Monasterio looking good. We did get a report here for 0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:11.000 today from Sean McCadam saying, looking like talks between the 0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:13.480 Red Sox and the Marlins are dead. They haven't talked 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:17.480 in a while over a possible trade candidate in Otto Lopez. 0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:19.480 I mean, yeah, we may get that report now, but 0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:21.880 you never know what could happen in the next couple 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:25.400 of days. I'm almost like forgetting that the trait deadlines 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.760 in a couple of days. That's how revved up I 0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:32.600 am over this one here tonight. But Monasterio he saw 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:35.279 that report, I guess, and he said, all right, well, Okay, 0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:38.280 I'm gonna take on the reins now. Funny enough, while 0:04:38.279 --> 0:04:42.200 we have been talking about shortstops, it didn't dawn on 0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:45.800 me that thanks to Red Sox stats over on Twitter, 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:49.760 he actually put out there that the Red Sox are 0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:52.880 actually ranking really well when it comes to shortstop production 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:56.159 this past month. I mean not just the Red Sox 0:04:56.160 --> 0:04:58.480 having a good month, but shortstops of the Red Sox. 0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:02.360 Andrew Monasterio, Sung Shaig Schenk having a great month second 0:05:02.400 --> 0:05:06.640 overall in fangraft wins above replacement. Who would have thought, well, 0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:09.280 Aksraa Monasterio, he has been very good. There was at 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:15.120 one point Monasterio had a very large negative fangraft wins 0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:18.200 above replacement. He is he has now gotten himself into 0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:22.680 the positives, especially after tonight. How about Jaron Durant after 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:26.920 the episode last night, I think he I guarantee duran 0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:31.000 probably saw some of the criticism on social media over 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:32.680 the last twenty four hours or so, but he was 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:34.760 able to come through here tonight got the game started 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:36.520 for the Red Sox of the base hit driving in 0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:40.800 a run. How about Masa taking advantage of a Freddie 0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:43.800 Freeman error here tonight? Right man at the Red Sox. 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:46.440 They were able to pounce first. Unfortunately, you know, just 0:05:46.520 --> 0:05:49.560 range of Suarez, Giovanni Moran weren't very effective. We're able 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.440 to give the lead back to the Dodgers. But again 0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:56.440 the offense Holy Cal you know, and this sorry to 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:58.080 bring up bad memories, but you know this was a 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:00.640 huge problem for the Red Sox. So the first monson 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:05.039 Holy Cow, even without Curtis Mead. Curtis Mead At a 0:06:05.120 --> 0:06:09.520 broken freaking wrist doesn't matter for this lineup, doesn't matter. 0:06:10.360 --> 0:06:15.640 And also also got to talk about Wilson Contreras. Wilson Contreras, 0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:19.480 this guy's an absolute savage. I don't know what else, 0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:24.680 what else there is to say. Uh, I think he 0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:29.159 took the title as one of the toughest sobs in 0:06:29.240 --> 0:06:31.760 all of Major League Baseball. The guy got hit on 0:06:31.800 --> 0:06:35.160 the freaking helmet, absolutely shook him up a little bit. 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:39.359 We've seen a lot of Wilson Contreras when it comes to, 0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:42.960 you know, yapping at guys out there, you know, getting in, 0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:46.200 you know, a couple of brawls here and there. We've 0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:48.280 seen him fired up, but we haven't seen him like 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:50.920 that where he got rattled a little bit and Holy Cow. 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.479 I mean yeah, when you're getting clocked with a ninety 0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:56.880 five mile an hour heat, Uh yeah, anyone's gonna get rouled. 0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:59.320 I mean me, I'm gonna be probably face down in 0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:03.720 the dirt, probably crying myself to sleep. Here's Wilson Contreras saying, nnah, 0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:06.240 I'm gonna I'm gonna walk on over the first base. 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:09.120 I'm gonna go take my base. I'm fine. Get away 0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:12.920 from me. I'm okay, don't touch me. Wilson Contreras, He's 0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:14.840 an absolute savage. I don't know what else there is 0:07:14.880 --> 0:07:17.800 to say. He eventually came out. He know. The funny 0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:20.640 thing about that was this guy got hit on the 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:24.520 freaking head and instead of him coming out, he eventually 0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:26.560 did come out, but instead of him coming out right there, 0:07:26.600 --> 0:07:29.320 Will Klein ended up getting taken out of the game. 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:33.000 Oh man, I thought that was kind of funny. Obviously, 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:34.840 you know, they were making a pitching change, but I 0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:39.000 just found the thought of that kind of funny that 0:07:39.040 --> 0:07:41.640 the guy, the guy who hit Wilson, ends up coming out, 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:45.040 but Wilson ends up staying in Holy Cow. The guy's 0:07:45.600 --> 0:07:50.960 absolutely incredible. Great night for the Red Sox here tonight 0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:53.880 also franklin Arius with another home run down at Triple A. 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:58.080 It's only getting louder and louder for mister franklin Arius. 0:07:58.240 --> 0:07:59.920 Is he gonna be a trade candidate? Is he gonna 0:07:59.920 --> 0:08:01.840 be with the Red Sox at some point? I'm not 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:03.880 so sure. We're just here for the ride. We're all 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:08.520 having fun. Ah man, this has got me all fired 0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:11.000 up here, ladies and gentlemen. I was tired like two 0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:12.920 hours ago. I'm thinking, how the heck am I gonna 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:15.200 do this stream here tonight? I could probably stay up 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:16.800 for the rest of the night, to be completely honest 0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:20.560 with you, man, omen Man, oh man, Let's get to 0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:22.640 it here, ladies and gentlemen. We got almost three hundred 0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:25.440 people in the chat. It is one twenty one Eastern time. 0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:27.800 I imagine a lot of you are on the West 0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:30.720 coast right now. I imagine there's some grumpy Dodgers fans 0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:34.600 out there. Hey, you know what you got Yamamoto on 0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:37.480 them out here tomorrow. I'm scared to death. I am 0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:39.600 not feeling very good about that one. Here tomorrow. We 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:44.840 got Peyton Tolly, got Peyton Tolly man, oh man, We'll 0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:46.839 talk about it. Let's talk about Ranger let's get to 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:51.240 Ranger Suarez. We're gonna go over the scoring again with Ranger. 0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:55.280 Five pictures here tonight that he was working with he 0:08:55.440 --> 0:09:00.000 has he was going. It was interesting in the first 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:05.040 time through the order, mostly leaning on the fastball type pitches. 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.280 He was going sinkers, he was going cutters, he was 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:09.560 going four seamers, not a whole lot of breaking stuff. 0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:11.440 So I don't know. I don't know if that was 0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:14.080 by design or if he just wasn't having a feel. 0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:19.200 But yeah, first time through the order, more fastball type pitches, 0:09:19.240 --> 0:09:22.600 and then he started using breaking balls as he went 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:27.320 through the order. Another time, he was fine in the 0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:29.319 first few innings there, he was able to navigate. But 0:09:29.400 --> 0:09:32.120 then the fourth thning, Otani leads off with an opposite 0:09:32.160 --> 0:09:35.240 field double. Also props to zeron Duran. You know, we 0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:38.720 could say, you know whatever about Duran's bat this year, 0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:40.400 but I feel like he's doing a great job in 0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:43.440 the outfield. Instead of letting that ball get to the 0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:45.880 get all the way to the wall, he ends up 0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:47.400 getting it. You know, a Tony still had a double. 0:09:47.440 --> 0:09:49.120 We just wanted to point it out. Duran was hustling 0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:52.960 out there, Paz with a ground out Rojast with a flyout, 0:09:53.160 --> 0:09:56.559 and then Freeman ended up having getting a base hit. 0:09:56.840 --> 0:09:59.080 We'll get to the Red Sox scoring in just a second, 0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:01.160 but the at this point they'd have a three to 0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:03.280 nothing lead. That trim the lead to three to one, 0:10:03.640 --> 0:10:07.480 then Mookie grounding out, and then the fifth inning right again, 0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:11.719 Ranger just still not looking like himself. Here's how I've 0:10:11.720 --> 0:10:14.880 always felt about Ranger Suarez. He is a like a 0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:18.240 feel kind of a guy. When he's feeling good, this 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:21.360 guy is gonna pitch great. But if something's off, you 0:10:21.400 --> 0:10:23.760 could be in for kind of a whackadoodle night for 0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:27.480 Ranger Suarez, right, you know, and considering he missed time there, 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:29.600 this is gonna take him a little bit. You go 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:31.640 back to the beginning of the season, right, he had 0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:36.000 kind of like this abbreviated spring training, right, you know, 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:37.680 it's kind of like is he you know, had the 0:10:37.679 --> 0:10:40.600 World Baseball Classic, kind of had a weird ramp up 0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:43.120 those first couple of starts. You're thinking, what the heck 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.840 was we signed this guy? Who the heck is this? 0:10:45.840 --> 0:10:48.040 This isn't Ranger Suarez that we saw with the Phillies. 0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:50.320 So you know, once he gets a couple of starts 0:10:50.400 --> 0:10:53.360 under his belt, maybe you know one two more. I 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:56.160 think we'll get back to the All Star Ranger Suarez 0:10:56.200 --> 0:10:58.920 that we were seeing so again more of like a 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:00.960 feel kind of a guy. And you could see it 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:03.960 wasn't really there here tonight. Taoscar with a flyout, Tucker 0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:06.840 with a walk, Keyk with the bass hit. Now Alfonso 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:09.760 with a base hit to center field. SETI ended up 0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:12.240 making a throw to second base. Keyk ran past second 0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:15.640 there ended up throwing him out. It was challenged. I 0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:19.280 actually thought Kyk got back in, and even on the replay, 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.400 I'm thinking, I feel like he's back in, but I 0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:24.040 don't think there was enough evidence to overturn it. So 0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:26.520 I feel like he might have gotten a hand back 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:31.800 in there. Well we'll take it, We'll take it. But 0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:33.480 that was the end of the night for Ranger. I 0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:35.960 thought he was gonna go up against Otani again, but 0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:38.480 here comes Jovanni Moran. But the final line for Ranger 0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:41.439 Suarez four and two thirds, four hits, three earned only 0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:44.320 two k's only two walks, not a whole lot of 0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:47.680 swinging miss But remember before Ranger went on the IL, 0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:50.760 he was getting a ton of swinging miss a ton 0:11:50.840 --> 0:11:54.240 of whiffs. Holy cow, not really a whole lot here tonight. 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:56.600 It is the Dodgers, I mean, holy cow, this lineup 0:11:56.720 --> 0:12:03.200 is ridunculous, but still kind of wondering where's that swinging miss? 0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:05.640 But then here comes Giovanni Morano Otani with his twenty 0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:10.079 fourth home run, absolutely belted it into the Night of La. 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:12.800 They give the Dodgers a four to three lead, and 0:12:12.960 --> 0:12:15.040 Moran he was able to work out of that. He 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:16.960 was able to get around it. After that, Paz with 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:20.040 the base hit, Rojas to fly out. We'll get back 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:22.280 to Brian Bayo in just the second, but let's get 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:30.760 caught up on the offense here. We do a little 0:12:30.760 --> 0:12:33.240 bit of back and forth here tonight, right because this 0:12:33.320 --> 0:12:36.640 game had a few different segments to it tonight. Also 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:38.360 do see a couple of super chats. We'll get to 0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:40.080 those in just a little bit. Thank you for those. 0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:43.920 But like I said, the Red Sox were able to 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:46.400 get ahead early here tonight. Durbin with a walk in 0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:48.920 the second inning, a bad pickoff attempt from Will Klein, 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:52.160 Durbin going over the second base, Monasteria with a strikeout, 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:56.000 but then Duran getting the party started here in La 0:12:56.559 --> 0:13:01.400 to the count, wrap all up. 0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:03.480 The metal through a pro base at that'll chase in 0:13:03.559 --> 0:13:07.120 a run. Durbin is in a score Jared Durant, who 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:10.400 is fifty fifth RBI and a Red Sox score first tonight. 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:17.800 Wonder so Duran, after again the the episode from last night, 0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:20.560 able to get off on the right foot here tonight. 0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:23.720 We saw a lot of negative reaction towards Jared Duran 0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:26.480 over the last twenty four hours. And you know, I'll reiterate. 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:30.840 You know, you gotta remember I'm doing a postgame reaction, 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:35.440 so I don't have the most time to really process things. 0:13:35.480 --> 0:13:37.400 So now that I've given a little bit more thought, 0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:41.199 you know, I still think I'm pretty much in the 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:44.640 same place that I was yesterday. I don't think the 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:50.240 reaction was great obviously. I mean, you know, to me, 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:54.959 I don't think you should be, you know, motioning towards 0:13:55.160 --> 0:13:59.880 you know, your teammates or your coaches. Obviously he was 0:14:00.360 --> 0:14:03.600 not happy about Wilson not tagging up, So you know, 0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:06.840 was that more directed at Eperson? I think so, but 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:09.959 obviously Wilson's over there. To me, it just wasn't a 0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:13.240 good look. I don't know, I get he's frustrated this year. 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:16.840 I understand it's been a tough year. It's been statistically 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:20.920 one of the worst Red Sox seasons offensively in Red 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.240 Sox history. It's been that bad. Now, sure he's been 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:26.160 able to drive in some runs, steal some bases, but 0:14:27.080 --> 0:14:29.240 you know, obviously Duran is not having a good year. 0:14:29.280 --> 0:14:32.080 So yeah, you know the frustration spilling over. But yeah, 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:34.600 I'll say it again, I think it was the right 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:37.680 move to not tag up on that play yesterday so 0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:40.080 to strama. The great arm in the outfield wasn't hit 0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:44.280 very deep. So yeah, I'm not really sure what caused 0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:47.800 Duran to, you know, kind of freak out the way 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:50.240 he did. I'm guessing he thought it was hit a 0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:53.720 little deeper. It is what it is, you know. It's 0:14:54.160 --> 0:14:59.000 but Chad Tracy said Tracy, he's a guy that's gonna 0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:01.320 stick up for the players no matter what. You know. Sure, 0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:04.520 you know, I see the people on social media saying, oh, 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:08.200 you have to get more accountability out of Duran. Tracy's 0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:10.080 just not going to go there. He's going to defend 0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:13.200 his guys. But I am pretty sure they had some 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:16.200 kind of a conversation behind closed doors, right. I think 0:15:16.200 --> 0:15:19.080 with just Duran obviously frustrated about how this year is gone, 0:15:20.000 --> 0:15:22.280 and just the way the Red Sox play. They're aggressive. 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:24.520 You know, he's probably thinking, hey, what are you doing? 0:15:25.600 --> 0:15:28.400 Why aren't you scoring? But that was obviously the wrong 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:31.320 way to react, especially the way he reacted. If you 0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:33.400 wanted to react that way, I mean, go do it 0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:35.320 down in the tunnel, you know, go do it in 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:38.440 the clubhouse. You know, I know that it's pretty tight 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:41.800 space over in the Sacramento. But yeah, I just don't 0:15:41.800 --> 0:15:43.440 think it was handled the right way. And I think 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:45.880 even Duran will look back on that and say, yeah, 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:48.320 that was probably kind of not the best way I 0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.400 could have done it. So it is what it is. 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:52.240 We saw a lot of talk here today on the 0:15:52.360 --> 0:15:54.440 radio station saying we got to get rid of this guy, 0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:57.520 get this guy off my team. We actually did get 0:15:57.520 --> 0:16:00.960 a report that Jaron Duran the Red Sox could be 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:04.600 open to moving Durant. You're not really gonna get a 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:06.600 whole lot for him at this point because the down year. 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:08.760 He still has a couple more years of control, so 0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:12.880 that still has some value in itself. And I don't know, 0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:17.040 again I've mentioned it before, I wonder if you could, 0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:20.440 you know, find like a creative scenario where he could 0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:23.160 be included in some kind of a deal to bring 0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:26.600 back like a bigger piece. I don't know. That's the 0:16:26.640 --> 0:16:28.720 only way I feel like I see Duran coming back, 0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:32.080 but with the good news with Roman knock on Wood 0:16:32.160 --> 0:16:35.960 starting to swing again pain free. Who knows something to 0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:38.480 pay attention to Anyway, I digress back to the game here. 0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:40.800 Just wanted to kind of reiterate my thoughts on Duran. 0:16:42.080 --> 0:16:48.280 So after the Red Sox score there in the third inning, 0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:51.360 so guard SETI with bass hits Will you're striking out. 0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:55.240 Then Wilson getting hit on the helmet ninety five miles 0:16:55.240 --> 0:16:58.400 an hour from Will Klein. Like I said, Wilson's a savage. 0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:01.280 This guy's a beast. He's an absolute freak. Stayed in 0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:03.960 the game to run. Will Klein ends up coming out. 0:17:04.000 --> 0:17:05.800 They bring in the next reliever, and then here comes 0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:11.320 Masa coming through. We love Masa on the left. 0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:15.439 Hander, taking on Yoshida, chopper to first base, bring it 0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:17.159 backs up to each of the line and rolls up 0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:18.400 the glove. One run. 0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:20.960 Who's in pair? Come say don ra Piela. 0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:22.080 He is in the store. 0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:24.760 So yeah, mass it was a very hard hit ball, 0:17:24.800 --> 0:17:27.320 one hundred and six and a half miles an hour. 0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:31.280 Freddy Freeman, the guy was scared to death of Masa. 0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:36.400 I mean Massa, it's Mack show Man. You can't handle Masa. Man. 0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:39.480 I don't know what Freddy Freeman was thinking, thinking that 0:17:39.560 --> 0:17:42.560 he could handle this guy. Well, he obviously found out 0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:44.439 the hard way. Masa got the best of them, like 0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:47.760 he has with so many others in the past. We 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:50.680 love Masa. They gave the Red Sox a three nothing lead, 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:53.800 but like I said, the Dodgers, they ended up storming back. 0:17:53.840 --> 0:17:55.800 Otani ended up giving them the home run to take 0:17:55.800 --> 0:17:58.320 the lead, and then the Red Sox over the next 0:17:58.320 --> 0:18:00.840 few winnings couldn't really get anything going. Now you're kind 0:18:00.880 --> 0:18:03.840 of wondering, Oh man, okay, here we go the Dodgers. 0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:07.560 These guys are amazing. They're getting the momentum. Looks like 0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:11.200 it's uh looks like the Dodgers could take off here. 0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:16.840 But you know what, here comes Brian BeO. Brian BeO. Man, 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:21.240 oh man, I'm telling you, bullpen Bo there's something different 0:18:21.240 --> 0:18:23.760 about this guy. And you know what we've seen. Now 0:18:23.800 --> 0:18:25.640 you go back to read Debtner's right you know you're 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:28.399 talking about, you know, one of the bigger trade candidates 0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:30.680 of the deadline. He went to the bullpen last year 0:18:30.680 --> 0:18:33.400 for the Angels. That was a guy who always had 0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:36.159 good stuff coming out of college. Was it Louisville if 0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:39.679 I remember correctly, Man, This guy would spin just beautiful, 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:44.119 breaking stuff. This guy was, you know, very touted in 0:18:44.119 --> 0:18:47.840 that draft. Was twenty twenty I believe, and you know 0:18:47.920 --> 0:18:50.879 with the Angels, just couldn't really figure it out in 0:18:50.960 --> 0:18:53.399 the rotation, right. He would flash a lot of good things. 0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:55.960 So eventually they put him into the bullpen last year 0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:59.680 kind of simplified everything. And look what he's doing this year. 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:02.320 Thanks Top ten when it comes to strikeouts, per nine, 0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:05.080 top fifteen when it comes to fangraft wins above replacement. 0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:08.960 So you know what you know, for Bao, obviously this 0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:12.240 is looking really good. You know, sticking this role for 0:19:12.280 --> 0:19:14.639 the rest of the year, maybe he ends up having it. 0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:18.879 You know, he can bounce back next year. Sometimes with starters, 0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:20.600 you know, you feel like you just get lost. But 0:19:20.960 --> 0:19:24.640 with debtmer's the big thing there. He's just really learned 0:19:24.640 --> 0:19:28.359 to simplify things. Seems like that's working for Bao right now. 0:19:28.920 --> 0:19:31.960 Lots of sinkers and changeups the first time through, and 0:19:32.000 --> 0:19:34.440 then second time through he started leaning more on the cutters. 0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:37.720 Beo's cutter is really interesting. It looks like a slider, 0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:42.080 but it registers as a cutter. It's a really interesting pitch. 0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:43.480 I thought it looked pretty good here tonight. He was 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:46.359 getting a good amount of swing and miss. But six 0:19:46.400 --> 0:19:50.800 inningk Freeman Mookie coming up with bass hits. You're thinking, 0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:54.760 oh man, bullpen Bao, Maybe bullpen BeO is not gonna 0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:56.920 have it here tonight. But hey, he locked it down 0:19:56.960 --> 0:19:59.280 ta Oscar with the ground out. He struck out Tucker 0:19:59.280 --> 0:20:02.959 looking on a sinker top of the zone. Munsey intentionally walked, 0:20:02.960 --> 0:20:05.639 but then he got out Fonso to ground out. He 0:20:05.680 --> 0:20:08.160 had a one two three seventh. I mean the Red 0:20:08.160 --> 0:20:10.400 Sox at this point. We'll get back to the Red 0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:14.040 Sox here. But for the offense eighth inning, he worked 0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:16.719 around a Freeman and Tucker base hit. He struck out 0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:19.640 ta Oscar swinging on a nice cutter away, and then 0:20:19.640 --> 0:20:21.359 he got Mounsey to ground out to end the inning. 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:27.000 Gave the Red Sox all they needed to storm back. 0:20:28.400 --> 0:20:33.119 In the seventh inning, Nick Soguard you're down four to 0:20:33.160 --> 0:20:34.840 three at this point, he gets on with the walk 0:20:34.840 --> 0:20:37.440 and here comes mister Seti in. 0:20:37.480 --> 0:20:40.200 The month of July, that's the most in the American League. 0:20:40.320 --> 0:20:41.240 Swinging and drive. 0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:44.440 Down a left field line. That's Dave Beckett goes. Can't 0:20:44.440 --> 0:20:48.200 sit goodbye off rid of the bullpen hand. The sucks 0:20:48.240 --> 0:20:52.160 her back on top a two run homer Bye Saint don. 0:20:52.960 --> 0:20:56.200 H twelfth home run of the year for Sadan Rafaela. 0:20:56.240 --> 0:20:57.920 What else does this man have to do to prove 0:20:57.960 --> 0:20:59.439 that he's one of the best all around players in 0:20:59.480 --> 0:21:02.000 the game. William with the base hit. After that, Masa 0:21:02.040 --> 0:21:04.600 with the south grounder down the third base line. It 0:21:04.720 --> 0:21:08.160 stays fair. Massa just does everything right. Man. You can't 0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:10.800 beat Masa Durbin with a bunt for a base hit. 0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:14.160 Munsey ended up holding onto it. Bases loaded at this point, 0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:16.840
