Unbelievable! Nice play, 67!! And Bernardino almost got decapitated. Second scary one tonight. Stuff looked good.Wow, great play by Alvarez there!
That's Dan Shulman, yes? I like his work.The game is going, with the Toronto feed on NESN. No score going into the bottom of the second. Red Sox have gone 6 up, 6 down on offense so far.
He is the long-time TV announcer for the Blue Jays. Understated but top notch.That's Dan Shulman, yes? I like his work.
Leading off today in Bradenton,, Abreu with a moonshot just foul.... Takes a BB. Erased on a tailor-made DP to short by Reyes. Casas disciplined, too much so it seems as he was frozen for the backward K.Valdez with a bomb just fair in right.
The pitch to finish off Casas was plain nasty. He likely wouldn't have been able to do anything with it even if he had swung, just a perfect pitch.Leading off today in Bradenton,, Abreu with a moonshot just foul.... Takes a BB.

Yeah, it was filthy. Hard to even foul that off. This kid Jones looks like the real deal based upon his numbers, stuff, and the comments the announcers are making.The pitch to finish off Casas was plain nasty.

Mayer sucks. Sell the team.
At least he sucks for both teams, I guess. Yikes.This ump is boiled ass.
Been a rough three innings for Mayer. Not exactly increasing his trade valueMayer had no chance against Jones. Swinging K out and up. Filthy. Alvarez takes a walk. Contreras down swinging on nasty slider. Lazy pop up, inning over.
I had forgotten that Eddy "the Jet" Alvarez was an Olympic speed skater. His wikipedia page is pretty cool:Olympian and #67 Alvarez flawless on routine grounder to third. 13 pitches, should have been several fewer.
He medaled at the 2014 Winter Olympics and 2020 Summer Olympics. He is the sixth athlete and third American ever to medal in both the Summer and Winter Olympics in different disciplines. After his MLB debut on August 5, 2020, Alvarez became the first Winter Olympics athlete and the first non-baseball Olympian since Jim Thorpe to play Major League Baseball.[2] Only Alvarez and Jim Thorpe have played Major League Baseball and won an Olympic Medal in another sport.
Alvarez opened the Olympics with a disqualification in the 1,500 meters after running into an Italian skater. In the 1,000 meters, he fell when a Canadian skater slipped in front of him. He was taken down by a South Korean in the qualification round of the 5,000 meter relay, but the United States was advanced when a judge ruled the South Korean had impeded Alvarez. In a 500-meter heat, Alvarez again fell, this time on his own, when he slipped on soft ice. Commenting on all the falls, he joked that he should get a medal for his skill at hitting the protective padding at the edge of the rink. Alvarez finished strong, as he and his teammates won the silver medal in the 5,000 meter relay final, finishing 0.271 seconds behind Russia.
The Pirates announcer jinxed him by calling him "Anthony Roman."Roman looking every bit of 19 out there, though.
a/k/a NESN viewers' wet dream.This Pirates broadcast is atrocious. Crowd Noise dialed up to a 10, the broadcasters at a 3.
Anthony 0-3 with two K's as well.Mayer showcase still not pretty.... first pitch groundout to second this time. Alvarez follows with a solid single to right.
Anthony 0-3 with two K's as well.
Sox will suck forever.
