Garrett Richards

Goddammit...I was gonna say "his what?" lol

Garrett Richards

Oh, never mind! (emily litella)

 

[LogansDad]

I enjoy when DOB gets surprised and excited by the runner taking off on a 3-2 pitch with 2 outs.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Ma$a YOKEshida!

 

[LogansDad]

MASATAKA YOSHIDA

 

[Redkluzu]

Yoshi just AMAZING

 

[JOBU]

YoSH. He seems alright

 

[InsideTheParker]

Masa is one of the greatest Sox ever. I love, love love him.

 

[nvalvo]

He is so good at hitting.

 

[Back Bay]

Wow really impressed with Yoshida using all field

 

[S. H. Frog]

Is this Wake and Youks? They're kind of fun.

I thought Wake died the day I saw him in that "I Like Beer" video in 2012

 

[mr_smith02]

I love Youk owning that sending him was a terrible call

 

[Bergs]

Righteous!

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Ok, Raffy. Let’s relax and do damage.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Wake and Youk are sort of an odd couple, aren't they? Kind of the Laurel and Hardy of color commentators.

 

[Bergs]

Raffy needs to go yard right here.

 

[derekson]

I don't know if I like Masa hitting or Youk describing it better

 

[JOBU]

Put it away Raffy

 

[Doc Zero]

Wake and Youk are sort of an odd couple, aren't they? Kind of the Laurel and Hardy of color commentators.

If Wake & Youk are Laurel & Hardy, who are John & Suzyn?

 

[strek1]

Raffy - just look to hit an oppo single just to get back in the groove.

 

[simplicio]

So yesterday I said Masa would be above .300 by the end of the week.

He did it in like 24 hours instead.

 

[JOBU]

Sigh

 

[Doc Zero]

Why did that fool Wakefield so much?

 

[LogansDad]

Holy shit, Pearson puts A LOT of effort into each pitch, huh? That is not an easy looking 98.

Fuck, Raffy, that was a crushable pitch.

 

[CarolinaBeerGuy]

Raffy is just off right now.

 

[InsideTheParker]

If Wake & Youk are Laurel & Hardy, who are John & Suzyn?

George Burns and Gracie Allen?

 

[Bergs]

goddammit

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Raffy is ineffectual.

 

[LogansDad]

Why did that fool Wakefield so much?

Because if Devers is right, that ball would have gone 450 feet.

 

[Rovin Romine]

Devers has left 7 OB thusfar.

 

[patinorange]

The booth is as bad as the fans with the oohs and ahhs on every flyball.

 

[strek1]

Raffy - just look to hit an oppo single just to get back in the groove.

Nope . Gotta swing at a not so great pitch on 2-0 and try to go 500 feet.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Raffy is just off right now.

Loves the warm weather and ain't getting it.

 

[InsideTheParker]

It is enormously lucky that the Sox are playing so well during Devers' slump.

 

[Rovin Romine]

If Wake & Youk are Laurel & Hardy, who are John & Suzyn?

Who?

 

[LogansDad]

Nope . Gotta swing at a not so great pitch on 2-0 and try to go 500 feet.

Disagree. That pitch was wheelhouse for Devers. He just missed it.

 

[LynnRice75]

If Wake & Youk are Laurel & Hardy, who are John & Suzyn?

 

[Doc Zero]

Because if Devers is right, that ball would have gone 450 feet.

Yeah I guess I hadn’t entertained the idea that he was reacting to the pitch more so than the ball.

 

[staz]

If Wake & Youk are Laurel & Hardy, who are John & Suzyn?

Ward and June

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Kutter's back? That's TIGHT!

 

[derekson]

Raffy is in a mode where he wants to hit everything as a home run

 

[BornToRun]

Raffy is in a mode where he wants to hit everything as a home run

He seems to be drawing more walks than usual, anecdotally, so hopefully that sticks around when the bat heats up.

 

[BornToRun]

I don’t know what this is, Kutter, but let’s not do it.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Nobody seems nervous about this at bat except me.

 

[BornToRun]

Nobody seems nervous about this at bat except me.

You’re not alone.

 

[Redkluzu]

pshew

 

[BornToRun]

Jesussssss

 

[JOBU]

Let’s stop fucking around here

 

[LogansDad]

Varsho is suddenly terrifying somehow. What the Frank Catalanatto has gotten into him?

 

[Redkluzu]

Nobody seems nervous about this at bat except me.

I think we all have PTSD (Post Toronto Stress Disorder) from that last comeback

 

[starfailure]

Btw, I take back all the horrible things I've ever said about Kutter Crawford. He's not that bad.

 

[LogansDad]

I love how much Casas wants to reward his pitchers with a putout when they put the effort in to run over to first base.
