LOL - "Cut down his swing"? Anybody who can get him to do that should run for President. What power of persuasion it must take.Why isn't the hitting coach getting Devers to cut down his swing and go opposite field.
You think this ownership is paying for Gatorade? That was tap water.Houck to the IL with a Gatorade bath-induced cold.
That wasn't terrible luck, that was the reigning platinum glove winner vs. a dumb runner.The call on the field had to be that he did not touch first base. It cannot be interference because the ball did not hit him. Being in fair territory is not enough to be called out after overruning first base. You have to make an attempt toward second base, which he never did. Even a slight attempt will be enough, but he didn't. Gotta just be a put out for not touching the base, which looked close on replay.
Just terrible luck that the guy backing up the throw was right there and made the attempt to tag him.
Game ended early? Duck into the woods and smoke some weed before Mom comes to get you.“What do we do now?”
Great line from DOB.
Yeah, definitely smart play. Lots of fielders would have just thrown it back to the pitcher, but it was kind of unlucky that the overthrow went right to him in the spot where the runner was.That wasn't terrible luck, that was the reigning platinum glove winner vs. a dumb runner.
85 win pace. Makes the playoffs in the NL last year.I feel like this has the makings of a watershed moment for the team. You've got a young player who's got all the tools to succeed but hasn't quite put them together, who's struggled mightily to become a viable starting pitcher, who's suffered a significant injury last year and worked his way back, and then he turns this in. "They say I can't go three times through? Fuck it, I'll throw a CGSO."
I'm fucking pumped. Let's keep it going tomorrow.
Yeah but they’re putting that Gatorade money back into the on field product right?You think this ownership is paying for Gatorade? That was tap water.
Amen, this game could be a foundational moment. Make it So Red SoxI feel like this has the makings of a watershed moment for the team.

Damon Buford and Lou Merloni hitting 5-6 in the lineup. Shocked they lost 1-0.The last Red Sox game that went 9 innings in less than 2 hours:

That might be the worst hitting outfield I’ve ever seen. Damon Buford cornered by Donnie Sadler and Darren Lewis.Damon Buford and Lou Merloni hitting 5-6 in the lineup. Shocked they lost 1-0.

Good point. Where are they going to find the extra 11 minutes for Sox in 2?I’m gonna rewatch this one because I was doing other stuff through most of it, except the top of the ninth. I figure why not? It won’t take too long
Mookie who?So...Connor Wong may be good...
