7/9/2023 Oakland @ Boston - Giddy up! Giddy up!

InsideTheParker · Jul 9, 2023

Thank you, Reffy!

LogansDad · Jul 9, 2023

I mean, that feels like a "best case scenario" with the way that inning went.

Stop moving your glove around so much Alfalfa.

There is a reason he keeps getting shown the door

moonshotmanny · Jul 9, 2023

We will need a lot of runs today.

We just need one more than the A's get and, considering it's the A's, that might not be that many

Kike is so awful

mauidano · Jul 9, 2023

Alfaro has plate discipline and good hair.

The Gray Eagle · Jul 9, 2023

Nice job moving up the runner, Kike.
Oh right, he took huge rips and popped out instead.

Bergs · Jul 9, 2023

There is no excuse other than injury to start Kike over Duran right now, LHP be damned.

Pick up the phone, Cora. Bergs has something to say.

YTF · Jul 9, 2023

Middlebrooks' stock as an analyst is really dropping.

LogansDad · Jul 9, 2023

Holy shit, they left Murphy in?

BoSoxFink · Jul 9, 2023

Don’t they have anyone else other than this stiff on the mound?

dhappy42 · Jul 9, 2023

Refsnyder doesn’t get enough love.

Not even close.

LogansDad · Jul 9, 2023

Does Alfaro close his eyes to throw the ball?

MFYankees · Jul 9, 2023

That's one for the highlights reel...

soxin6 · Jul 9, 2023

Oh goodie, we can expect more terrible starts from Kluber. It is almost like management wants to lose.

fenwaypaul · Jul 9, 2023

The only time Alfaro should ever be throwing the ball is back to the pitcher after a pitch.

He's been very good previous to today and was clearly expected to have the bulk of the innings. It's a big disappointment so far.
Who do you recommend Cora bring in for the remaining innings?

SemperFidelisSox · Jul 9, 2023

Did Alfaro think the runner was trying to steal the Green Monster?

YTF · Jul 9, 2023

And there is today's obligatory "back of the baseball card" reference.

Wow, I'd forgotten all about him

E5 Yaz · Jul 9, 2023

See? Oakland is nothing to worry about. The Red Sox take the lead here, and never relinquish it for the pre-ordained sweep

Al Zarilla · Jul 9, 2023

Got to watching Italian cooking on YouTube, couldn't stop. One run on no hits for the Sox??

Tim Salmon is beginning a comeback. Kevin Bass, however, has stayed retired.

Anthony Bass is still in the game, but not an outfielder.

Petagine in a Bottle · Jul 9, 2023

Dewey looks great

That reminds me: Alfaro is Italian for "throws like a limp noodle"

soxin6 · Jul 9, 2023

JohnnyTheBone said:
And there's the reason he keeps resurfacing!

It isn’t his defense

Bergs · Jul 9, 2023

When Wil Middlebrooks is the most exciting guy in your 4-man dinner party, you are at a boring motherfucking dinner party.

Bergs · Jul 9, 2023

Sweet no-no this kid has going.

E5 Yaz · Jul 9, 2023

The Rays-Braves game was delayed at the start because Tampa Bay inducted Wade Boggs into their Hall of Fame

dhappy42 · Jul 9, 2023

Three in the booth is too many. I’d like to hear OB and just Wake. Wake doesn’t talk much which is how the color guy should do it.

Al Zarilla · Jul 9, 2023

Raffy could use some plate discipline lessons from Casas.

InsideTheParker · Jul 9, 2023

So the catcher can be subject to "interference," but the batter is never penalized for hitting the catcher's glove, right?

E5 Yaz · Jul 9, 2023

JohnnyTheBone said:
Better Boggs than the execrable Don Zimmer.

Not only is Zim already in the team HoF, but their team MVP Award is named after him

Al Zarilla · Jul 9, 2023

Alfaro is on deck? Yeesh

E5 Yaz · Jul 9, 2023

In case anyone's wondering

He can if there is a steal attempt going on and it is on the follow through.

E5 Yaz · Jul 9, 2023

Wow, can't take that pitch on 3-2

Rovin Romine · Jul 9, 2023

Been completely out of pocket since Wed.

Apparently we have an Alfaro. Who knew?

I wonder if Boggsie has chicken for dinner tonight.
