5/4/2023 Toronto @ Boston - "Broom shakalaka!"

[strek1]

Be careful or we'll have a close game before you know it.

 

[strek1]

That's one weakness for Masa.

 

[joe dokes]

"Pitching to the score"

 

[Redkluzu]

pshew

 

[patinorange]

That's one weakness for Masa.

Zero arms in the outfield.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Such a classic Bello inning.

 

[LogansDad]

Alright, I can live with it.

 

[joe dokes]

That's one weakness for Masa.

At least he didn't airmail the cutoff.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Bello will go a start one day without BABIP bullshit

 

[moonshotmanny]

I want more runs.

 

[joe dokes]

So during Valdez's last AB, my wife walked by and asked "who's the old guy?" On closer look, he does sort of look like later years Julio Franco.

Wasn't Julio about 50 when he finally hung 'em up?

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Just a little spurt over the bag.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Another slick piece for Reese!

If he shrunk like half a foot.

 

[Redkluzu]

One of the things I miss about Remy and Don is their funny food talk. They used to crack me up -- pizzagate being one of the best. Listening to the clam chowder chatter---good stuff,

 

[Redkluzu]

A double post during the "reset"

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Helluva play

 

[Beomoose]

That's a play last year's squad fucks up

As an aside to that, Youk has been talking this whole week to go into the sideline reporter spot, I’m waiting for Tom Caron to take him up on it.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Bernardino just gave us another fine inning. And who had heard of him several weeks ago? Certainly not I.

 

[Redkluzu]

Duran is amazing!

 

[The Filthy One]

Duran on fire.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

BABIP worm is starting to turn back towards the bad side.

 

[derekson]

Getting an insurance run there would've been nice

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Casas has swung on 3-0, the first pitch and the second pitch in his last three at bats. Maybe they are telling him to be more aggressive?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

HIS KIKENESS!

 

[Redkluzu]

Jesus, circus performer

 

[LogansDad]

Kiké!!!!

 

[InsideTheParker]

ok, greatness by Hernandez

 

[simplicio]

Kiké's really determined to make up for that one bad inning tonight.

 

[Jack Rabbit Slim]

Kike is like the bizarro Bogaerts. Makes the incredible plays but messes up on the routine ones

 

[InsideTheParker]

See the OFers chatting. Wonder how much English Masa has. He seems to understand a lot, even if he can't speak as much of it.

 

[InsideTheParker]

"Empathy is our best policy." Yeah, and it doesn't cost you anything, either.

 

[Redkluzu]

Pitching superlative there

 

[LogansDad]

Excellent job.

 

[joe dokes]

I had Schreiber pegged for flash in the pan regression. Slow start, but he seems to have regained his footing. Glad to be wrong so far.

 

[LesterFan]

Valdez has destroyed two balls to the track for outs

 

[DeadlySplitter]

Valdez great night at the plate despite the 0-fer.

 

[derekson]

Damn, Valdez with a few rockets for outs tonight

 

[Mantush]

Who has been the third voice in the booth lately? I’ve been on a cruise so haven’t been able to tune in much

 

[InsideTheParker]

It looks as though Tronna's relievers are better pitchers than Gausman.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Tim Wakefield.

[Moviegoer]

Is everyone else getting this Polish&Slavic credit union ad on MLB.tv or is my algorithm really messed up?

 

[LogansDad]

It looks as though Tronna's relievers are better pitchers than Gausman.

Gausman is a great pitcher, but had a rough night.

I am wondering if it was a tipping situation (like it was rumored about Sale last week against Baltimore)

 

[DeadlySplitter]

That needs to be an out, Tristan

 

[joe dokes]

Tim Wakefield.

I don't much like 3man booths. But wake and youk have an easy style to them. Meanwhile OB quickly and seamlessly takes up his role as weakest link.

 

[InsideTheParker]

So nice. I thought uh-oh once Varsho got on, but no worries!

 

[rodderick]

Bullpen has been nails.
