If you needed — needed — to see the Sox get shut down yet again by a random righty before they’d be playoff ready, then climb to the rooftops and shout ‘Bring on the Playoffs!’ That box is ticked.

Miguel Cabrera: Number three in all time GIDP with now 342, behind Pujols at 413 and possibly still climbing and Ripken Jr. at 350.
Checking the rest of the active list, Miggy’s ensconced. He can settle in up top for years or more.
Looked it up because I guessed he’d be among the leaders. Guessed right.
FP 6:35 CDT per Sox twitter.

Moncada’s exit velocities tonight: 107.9, 113.8, 102.2, and 101.0. That will work.
Moncada’s go-ahead home run was his lowest exit velocity of the night.
It looks like Houston is going to win so the Sox will be the 3 seed barring a huge Oakland comeback.
I’ll be be spending the rest of the evening grading exams and rooting for the Mariners whose game is on MLB network.
