5-26-23 Sox in the Desert v1

[Doc Zero]

Verdugo keeps watching two hittable pitches go by before swinging at garbo.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Still don’t think the first baseman touched the bag in time.

I think it's more likely than not that he did.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Not a name I can say either.

The P, the F, the As, the D and the T are silent

 

[staz]

FEED IT

 

[budcrew08]

The P, the F, the As, the D and the T are silent

It’s the sound our offense has made over the past four games.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

He credits his last name with giving him the motivation to keep himself slim in middle school.

Greta?

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Chris Muther Fucken' We Got Him When He Was Far From On Sale is baaaaaaaaack!!!

D'backs announcers call Turner "the Red Menace" and say Tapia is a long-time pain in the butt against Arizona

Yeah I think DOB said he’s hit .335 at whatever this park is called!

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Definitely off the bag that time.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

No question.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Why is Refsnyder playing LF and batting 5th against a RHP?

Cuz the muddafugga can flat hit!

 

[Doc Zero]

It would be really cool to get to Cat Sat On Keyboard early.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Definitely off the bag that time.

Corralled it in Utah

 

[Max Power]

Pfaadt tsuuukz.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Casas drives in the irrepressible ROBBIE REF$NYDER!

 

[E5 Yaz]

Dbacks announcers say Casas tells the umpire before his first at-bat that he "calls" the pitches during his at-bats. Have we heard this before?

 

[staz]

That was a ROCKET

 

[budcrew08]

We can score runs?!

 

[patinorange]

A run? Awesome.

Best post of the thread so far.

Yes, sir.

That's the type of hit that gives me hope. Line drives.

 

[simplicio]

Good time to tune in to this game of the Boston Red Sox vs the Arizona Flan Pants.

 

[Just a bit outside]

Pfaadt throws a lot of hanging sliders.

 

[Al Zarilla]

We can score runs?!

We got a special dispensation from the Pope.

I haven’t heard it from the announcers, but he definitely screams the ball/strike call after a lot of takes.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Yes, sir.

This "habit" seems unwise

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Kike "The Freak-aye" Hernandez goes down swingin', like Sonny Liston.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Would explain why they seem to like to call him out in a lot of borderline pitches.

 

[patinorange]

Hernandez is a black hole.

Sonny went down looking

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

EnriK

 

[Rovin Romine]

DOB, knowing the team is in a slump seems to need to point out that each individual hitter hasn't hit a lot lately.

I've never heard that explained, but I have definitely noticed that he often has conversations with the umpire.

Edit: and obviously hear him scream No at balls.

Sonny just gave up.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

He's definitely a unique character. Ten years too late (he should have been on the '13 team).

 

[Rovin Romine]

Niiice.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Not gonna lie, that was the most unique ground-rule double I've ever seen. Like question #12 of a geometry final exam.

 

[Bergs]

Woot!

 

[Ale Xander]

Automatic double

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Sonny went down looking

Sonny just gave up.

I get it, but I can't resist quoting a great Tom Petty song.

[teddywingman]

This is welcome change.

 

[staz]

Sox are up there HACKING

 

[Ferm Sheller]

If there's anything we can count on, it's death, taxes, and Tapia raking in the desert.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Raimel "The Splendid Splinter" Tapia delivers again.

 

[Bergs]

In play (motherfucking runs, y'all)

 

[barclay]

Looks to me like the proper pronunciation of Pfaadt is Pfffttt
