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

[moonshotmanny]

Wow!

 

[mauidano]

Isn't it YOSHeeda, not YoshEEDa, the way OB says it? Anybody know?

Japanese names are on the consonants. so it's Yo-Shee-Da.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Gausman is RATTLED!

 

[Ale Xander]

Isn't it YOSHeeda, not YoshEEDa, the way OB says it? Anybody know?

Whatever is opposite of what OB says/does is proper.

 

[waffles.]

Damn, this team is FUN to watch. Yoshida is smoking the ball.

 

[Redkluzu]

OMG

 

[Madmartigan]

Is Masa the preferred nickname? Not Yoshi?

 

[BornToRun]

Thing of beauty

 

[chrisfont9]

I love this team

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Oh, hell-o!!!

 

[Redkluzu]

SLUMP FREE

 

[Back Bay]

Devers can put this one on ice here. Please do it.

 

[BornToRun]

How’s that ERA looking now?

 

[Beomoose]

RAFFY!

 

[patinorange]

Assassin's bullet.

 

[The Filthy One]

Oh, baby. That was a missile.

 

[simplicio]

Is Masa the preferred nickname? Not Yoshi?

Yes.

 

[Madmartigan]

Yeah this team is rolling

 

[InsideTheParker]

Japanese names are on the consonants. so it's Yo-Shee-Da.

You mean even emphasis on all syllables?
And, Phew! Raffy almost homered.

 

[bluefenderstrat]

This team is on FIRE

 

[Redkluzu]

Devers can put this one on ice here. Please do it.

Your wish is...

 

[chrisfont9]

Is Masa the preferred nickname? Not Yoshi?

In Japan it wouldn't be Yoshi (which is a common first name) but he's probably cool with whatever sticks over here?

 

[mauidano]

Everyone wants a piece of Gausman today!!!

Raffy came to play...a game of inches.

 

[Wallball Tingle]

Holy shit, smashed.

 

[DeadlySplitter]

This is arguably a better inning offensively than the Milwaukee inning. Just worn him down, great baserunning, great situational contact

 

[derekson]

Gausman's got nothing

 

[moonshotmanny]

Raffy!!! Finally!

 

[BornToRun]

If this gets to Casas it’s gonna be 9-0.

 

[Moviegoer]

Is it too early to be cautiously optimistic about the outcome of this game?

 

[simplicio]

The broadcast team has said a bunch of times he prefers Masa.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

I look up and down this lineup and I struggle to see who's going to make the third out

 

[S. H. Frog]

Wheels are off

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Man, such a tragedy for the Jays…

 

[Redkluzu]

I almost feel sorry for Toronto, almost, but not.

 

[mauidano]

You mean even emphasis on all syllables?
And, Phew! Raffy almost homered.

Yes, but quickly.

 

[barclay]

So you're saying he could unload Hernandez?

Could be, although I like Kee-kay But seriously, what Bloom wanted is now coming to fruition -- Casas, Masa, Duran, and we can add Wong and Valdez, are all coming into their own. The O is fine -- they have a bunch of prospects that gives him options (e.g., Valdez, Romero, Yorke for 2nd) and Duvall/Mondesi/Story coming back. I assume that should this continue Bloom will aim for a top tier pitcher/pitching prospect come the trade deadline -- but what do I know. Just a fan. But I'm excited.

 

[mauidano]

You are not throwing out Duran on that. Ever.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Duran is crazy fast

 

[bluefenderstrat]

Let’s go for 28!

 

[mauidano]

I absolutely love seeing the running game open up. This game is a perfect example of just moving runners up into scoring positions.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Let’s go for 28!

29

 

[LogansDad]

I fucking love this team.

 

[moonshotmanny]

Is it too early to be cautiously optimistic about the outcome of this game?

For me it is. Too many bad memories of blown leads. Still, having fun right now!

 

[AB in DC]

Nice to see the SB back in our repetoire.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Casas must be looking off speed.

Hei, let us Sho you around.

 

[LogansDad]

Oh, Casas just missed that first 3-2 pitch.

 

[AB in DC]

What's that elbow knock mean?

Some kind of bicep flex?

 

[LogansDad]

And then totally missed the 2nd 3-2 pitch.

 

[BornToRun]

I like Youk’s hat.
