He probably got thrown out on purpose this game does seem scripted either way the Sox have already swept this series.
 
Dirty slide with Turner kicking out his right leg to smack Bogaerts. Especially considering Turner was on the infield grass and swung all the way to the outfield side of second base on a play he was out by 3 steps.

Seriously, can anyone make sense of how Roberts has managed this series?

This is why the Sox have already swept this series, smart vs dumb.

Why do they even have him running with Grandal at the plate? Grandal has basically never had a hit with runners on, why does Roberts start him? Why did Roberts have his top 4 homerun hitters sitting on the bench to start game 1 and game 2? Why did he take his stud starter out who had a 2 hitter with no walks and was still throwing 99 mph gas to put in a reliever who is broken and hasn't been able to get 6 outs all season?

You couldve had Buehler on a short leash, or start the 8th with Baez and have Jensen warming up. Not having your top 4 home run hitters in the lineup for games 1 and 2 was mind boggling.

Beuhler was at 108 pitches. You take him out. Absolutely no reason to ask Jansen to go two innings though. You've got Urias and Baez to get to Jansen. Use them.
 
Every time fans behind the plate think they’re hilarious doing the Kimbrel thing

Yes thats what I was thinking start the inning with Baez or Urias and have Jansen warming up.

I think it was the right move to send Kinsler if the throw is off an inch or 2 Kinsler is likely safe, put the pressure on the Dodgers they haven't exactly handled pressure well.

Baseball was cooler when it wasn't all arbitrary pitch counts and algorithms. Buehler was at 99 mph and not straining when he pulled him. There would be no Don Larsen, Jack Morris, or basically any other legendary pitching performance with these robots.
 
This game is so predictable you knew Machado would get nothing to hit there Machado is like I'm hacking away anyways, trying to be the hero.
 
If the Sox dont score I'm guessing you pitch Pomeranz till his arm falls off, would imagine Cora would use Eovaldi to close.
