Acknowledges he could have handled situation better. Remains miffed that Eck not in clubhouse more."<br /><br />That's a pretty weak excuse from Price. The Red Sox were home for seven games right after the All-Star break (and I'm assuming that Eck worked all 7 games). if Price admits he should have acted differently, then he should have made an effort to find Eck and speak to him. Price seems to be admitting (at least somewhat) he was in the wrong and he knows he should talk to Eck about it, yet <i>what</i>? He's expecting Eck to come over to his locker? He's miffed that Eck isn't visible <i>at the exact moment</i> Price wants to see him? Jesus Fucking Christ! You are not playing in 80% of the games. You have some time.<br /> <b>GO FIND ECK! ASK AROUND! MAKE A GODDAMN EFFORT!</b> (Or forget talking to Eck and take responsibility for your actions and tell the media, yeah, that's right, fuck that guy!) <br />allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04673233312198832937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-73405715436082500722017-07-29T14:01:33.340-07:002017-07-29T14:01:33.340-07:00TBR - 101 010 010 - 4 8 0

He got ahead of Headley 0-2, but walked him. Ellsbury ran for Headley and stole second. Frazier was hit by a pitch. Torreyes reached on a bunt single to third, loading the bases with no outs. Jennings relieved Boxberger. Gardner took a strike, then singled to center.<br /><br />The Greatest And Most Humble Human Being In The History Of The Universe did not hit a fair ball all afternoon.
