Tough call against Raffie, but also deserved. No way, no how was he going to get a hit. He was up there with one thing on his mind--besides that big wad of tobacco in his month--get a free pass.

Bad call by HP chUMP. Lynn's knee taking a beating supporting all that lard.
Pivetta is getting decent calls. Plus he has been extremely effective and efficient so far.
Lynn is no doubt getting more calls, but he is also pitching well. More than that, it is obvious the Sox lineup is helpless against him. Schwarber looks like a rookie who shouldn't have been called up. Devers the same. And both have the advantage of going lefty vs. righty.
I'm guessing(hoping) Lynn will be removed earlier than scheduled because of his knee.
Sox still headed for another 15 K's today, and this time they ain't getting any hits or good contact (except for that deep liner by Dalbec).
This is a pitcher's duel, and I'm very impressed with Pivetta and his catcher.
Verdugo K's on a cutter right down the middle. The problem, folks, is not the home plate umpire. It's that pesky Chicago starter.
Illinoisredsox, please note.

First solid hit by Boston. Shaw's the man. One has to wonder, why not Schwarber or Devers? And not just today.
White Sox warming someone in the pen. That can’t be a bad thing for the Red Sox.
The Yankees could go 0-162 and it wouldn't be enough
Nice play by Iggy!
Nice play by Iggy. Bogey also makes that play.
