In this series THE MODERATOR: Questions for Xander Bogaerts. against Houston you've been scoring a ton of runs, not many homers. How would you describe the Q. You were a young guy in the run in 2013. What offensive approach that you've been able to sort of lessons can you impart to the younger guys implement against a staff that's obviously -- on this team now that -- about finishing off the XANDER BOGAERTS: I think it's been a good one. series, about keeping the intensity high even when It's been a good one. Not a lot of home runs. I think if you have a lead like this? you go big or go home, we would probably go home. XANDER BOGAERTS: Yeah, I think it's always Because these guys are a good pitching staff. important not to get too comfortable. We know we Although we know we have a short porch in left field, have a good lead, 3-1. But they're a good team. Fenway Park also. But I think the big approach, it's not They've won a lot of games in the season. They won it the best one against these guys, just try to single, put all last year. up good at-bats and get walks and hopefully the next guy can do damage, as Jackie has been doing for us So obviously they can win. We've just got to come out big. with the same intention as every game, come out to try to win the game and try to score early. Q. Since you were a young player there have been different versions of you every year it seems. Are Q. Were there guys on that team that you looked to you happy with what you are now, who you are as a as an example? And are you passing along some player? of the same messages to the younger guys on this XANDER BOGAERTS: Yeah, I would definitely say team that you got from those guys? that.

We've been to homers. the playoffs, couldn't get out of the first round. And I think it's pretty much the same core that we have, just As I said, I don't think in the playoffs it's ideal to try to a different coaching staff guiding us and giving us that swing for the fence. You're just not going to get results. wisdom. Even if you get one it's going to be one good results in ten at-bats. And I don't think it's beneficial to the team. But so far it's been good. It's been an amazing experience the whole season. I look forward to one So I still have to come out with the same plan today, more win and heading to the World Series, hopefully. same mindset and just try to get on base as much as possible, have a lot of guys on base, a lot of traffic. As Q. Can you talk about the growth of the young Red you've seen, the catchers had passed balls, a few wild Sox players over the last few years? pitches, a few good fair-ball reads, I think those are XANDER BOGAERTS: I think it's been awesome. I going to be huge for us. think a lot of the other guys have matured a lot. I can definitely speak for myself, my first year, I mean I can Q. You brought up Jackie a minute ago. Clearly remember it as if it was yesterday, playing with all those he's had huge swings the last three games. What's veteran guys. that mean -- like you were talking about, you have to be different and not swing for the fences. He's But I think this year we have the same group. This is not had some struggles in the postseason, but probably the third time we're going to the playoffs with what have you seen that's different from him in the the same group. And I think everyone's just used to series? each other and being able to trust each other a lot XANDER BOGAERTS: I think he's just locked in. The more. confidence has always been there, I think from the day the season started, no matter how much he struggled Q. You guys all year long have mixed the ability to or not.

XANDER BOGAERTS: Sometimes I want to swing at the first pitch. But it's not always -- it's in my DNA. Sometimes I just don't feel that comfortable. But obviously it's something that he's preached a lot to most of the guys on our team. I think in certain situations it's good to use that plan. Sometimes I'm not that type of guy. I like to work at an at-bat. I feel more comfortable the more pitches I see, stuff like that. But sometimes it works, like yesterday. Q. Alex was in here the other day. He said he had to sit you guys down during spring training and remind you guys that are you're good and you have to play that part. What do you remember about that meeting and how comfortable were you guys in acceptable that? XANDER BOGAERTS: It was me, Jackie and Mookie. I don't recall if there was one more guy.

  • Jose Ramirez Looked to Be the Only Person Inside Goodyear Ballpark Who Immediately Realized What He Had Pulled Off Sunday Afternoon
    Alert Ramirez sparks Indians' rare triple play By Jordan Bastian MLB.com @MLBastian GOODYEAR, Ariz. -- Jose Ramirez looked to be the only person inside Goodyear Ballpark who immediately realized what he had pulled off Sunday afternoon. The crowd was buzzing as they discussed the play that unfolded in front of them and it took a few moments before the umpires let Cleveland's fielders return to the dugout. In the sixth inning of a 5-4 loss to the Brewers, Ramirez swiftly recorded a pair of outs to ignite a unique triple play with the bases loaded, providing the highlight of Cleveland's split-squad games against Milwaukee and Kansas City. The three outs were recorded so fast that manager Terry Francona quipped the Indians could have notched four on the play. "There were outs everywhere," Francona said. Brewers manager Craig Counsell agreed. "They could have gotten four outs on that play, very easily could have gotten four outs," Counsell said. "It's a crazy thing. You come to the field and see something [like that]. I think everyone in our dugout said they'd never seen anything like that." The play began with Jonathan Villar on first, Christian Yelich on second and Stephen Vogt on third base for the Brewers against Indians righty Matt Belisle. Travis Shaw then sent a soft looping liner up the third-base line, where Vogt was caught in between. If he bolted home and Ramirez snared the ball for an out, Vogt could have been doubled up at third. Instead of making the catch, Ramirez gloved the ball on a short hop, introducing a bit of chaos.

    The Boston Red Sox Thursday, October 3, 2019 * The Boston Globe Sorting out the mixed signals coming from Fenway Park Christopher L. Gasper It’s a barren month for Boston baseball. There are no playoffs for the first time since 2015. There are no more games that matter until March. October is empty. But Fenway Park is full of mixed signals being sent about the 2020 vision for the Red Sox. The Sox are pushing the soft reset button unless they’re not. They’re in money-saving mode because of the burden of the competitive balance tax unless they’re not. They’re parting with either Mookie Betts or J.D. Martinez, because of the financial sword of Damocles that ex-baseball boss Dave Dombrowski left dangling above their heads, unless there’s a way they’re not. The Sox currently have more hedges than the garden at the Getty Museum in Los Angeles. The more they elaborate, the harder it is to pin down the team’s stance for next season. Sometimes you just need to rip off the conversational Band-Aid. The Sox need to shoot us straight. We can take it. The Fenway Faithful form the most sophisticated, informed, and loyal fan base in baseball. They might not like the plan, but they’ll tolerate it. The only thing they’ll have less tolerance for than a step-back year is being told it isn’t happening while it’s unfolding right in front of them. Send the euphemisms and equivocations to the dustbin along with manager Alex Cora’s spring training pitching plan.
