You're correct. It looks like they considered it, but ultimately maintained the 7:10 start after experimenting with 7:30 a couple years ago. My guess is that they want to see the impact of the pitch clock this year before deciding to make further changes.Wasn't there a rumor, reported on this board, that games were going to start at 6:30? I was looking forward to that.
Brilliant, thoughtful insight right here....Win the fucking game.
I agree.Brilliant, thoughtful insight right here....
More of the simplicity and brevity that @Lose Remerswaal adores.Score nine runs.
Looks like a lineup capable of putting 9 runs on the board.1. Alex Verdugo (L) RF
2. Rafael Devers (L) 3B
3. Justin Turner (R) DH
4. Masataka Yoshida (L) LF
5. Adam Duvall (R) CF
6. Triston Casas (L) 1B
7. Christian Arroyo (R) 2B
8. Enrique Hernandez (R) SS
9. Connor Wong (R) C
The objective is for the pitching to put up less than what they have been doing.Looks like a lineup capable of putting 9 runs on the board.
What does Reese’s son have to do with this?Deacon Philippe is not walking through that door.
Wong needs to get that framed.Not really related to tonight's game, but the Red Sox made the cover of this week's New Yorker.

I'll sing you a song of a team lost at sea,This team was 2 wins away from the World Series 17 and a half months ago. 2022 was merely a bump in the road in returning to finish the job.
Everyone has a part to play. Crawford’s part is mowing down Pirate Pricks…let’s go.
That would be puzzling for Winfield. I assume it's Dave Parker.The Pirates turning into a shit franchise is really sad. Besides the Sox, they were my favorite team as a kid in the 70's as my paternal side of the family are from outside the 'Burgh. I have (somewhere) a Willie Stargell signed baseball. Dave Winfield signed yellow hat with the black stripes.
Duh! Just testing you! Joe Dokes for the win!!!!That would be puzzling for Winfield. I assume it's Dave Parker.
Looks like the Dodgers do a light show after every home run. Being that tonight is the first home night game, we shall see if the Sox do as well (hopefully 5x).MORE FLASHING LIGHTS
Probably should include "pitch the ball" as well unless that's covered by "throw the ball"?I got more, too: Hit the ball, catch the ball, throw the ball.
It's particularly sad given that they now play in one of the most beautiful parks in MLB.The Pirates turning into a shit franchise is really sad. Besides the Sox, they were my favorite team as a kid in the 70's as my paternal side of the family are from outside the 'Burgh. I have (somewhere) a Willie Stargell signed baseball. Dave Winfield signed yellow hat with the black stripes. I still love the Sister Sledge tune they adopted back then too!
Nickname:With this guy in the lineup, thank god for the pitch clock!
Hey, weird autographs are cool. I have an Alan Trammell autograph on a Green Bay Packers cap.Duh! Just testing you! Joe Dokes for the win!!!!
Yeah- Parker! Oof
