7/7/2023 Oakland @ Boston - Hey, Let's Find The Stroke!

[budcrew08]

By the way, since it was my complaint about the gambling graphics that preceded the discussion, I am not concerned about players cheating. I just don't like the intrusion into the game that I'm watching. Also, I am concerned about impressionable young people whose judgment may not protect them from losing money they need.

This is what the NFL is running into as well. Guys are gambling on their own team!

Kike needs to pack it all up (or throw it away). What he can't carry, bury.

Interesting comments from him after the bloop single

Hernández was asked postgame if he agreed with Cora’s assessment that sitting for a few games would serve as a mental reset. His answer was a sarcastic one.
“Um, I guess, sure,” Hernández said. “We can say that. Yeah, sure.”
So, not really?
“I mean, agree to disagree,” Hernández admitted.

So ... not quite the binky?

Kike with a slick play, but not as slick as KY jelly, the official sex lubricant of the Boston Red Sox.

Replacing mayo?

Phenomenal.

 

[Bergs]

Replacing mayo?

And toothpaste.

How long you been waiting to use that one?

 

[E5 Yaz]

How long you been waiting to use that one?

Two minutes

 

[reggiecleveland]

Verdugo is the complete opposite of JD Drew everything looks harder than it should be. JD got such great reads everty ball looked like it was hit right at him. Verdugo is always adjusting at the last second, and it always seems dicey.

 

[Moviegoer]

Michael Jordan had more money than just about anyone at the time between his NBA salary and his Nike deal. And yet his gambling was so bad it might have gotten his Dad killed.
Big salaries is no protection to another huge gambling scandal.

 

[Al Zarilla]

This guy throws like Kenley without the cha cha cha .

 

[Bergs]

Two minutes

Prom night.

 

[azsoxpatsfan]

Rays lose 6th in a row, Yankees lose, so far a great day in the east

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

How long you been waiting to use that one?

Since about 7:30 EST.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Prom night.

Optimist

 

[Al Zarilla]

Since about 7:30 EST.

I'll take the average of yours and Yaz's answers.

 

[E5 Yaz]

ORTPROOF

The Yankees had two hits in the game, and one of them was from Franchy Cordero.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

We'd need about 8 more to Garza-proof this sumbitch.

 

[Bergs]

Is it just me, or does the way Derek Jeter pronounces "Negro League" awkward AF?

Taillon went 8 with 1 hit. He has an era over 6. That offense is hilariously bad

 

[E5 Yaz]

Not as bad as he pronounces 'The Captain'

It's not just you.

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

Sox are about to be just two behind the Yankees, who they have owned this year. This ain’t over folks.

BUY

 

[Al Zarilla]

double him up I'm hungry.

I'm having deja vu all over again

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

3 down 2 to go

[Harry Hooper]

DP for a finish with a flourish.

 

[AMS25]

As water.

 

[absintheofmalaise]

Bullpen water.

Win's a win Water.

COme on didn't you see the Last Dance? Gambling had nothing to do with it. Also the guy that drafted Kwame Brown #1 overall and Adam Morrison 3rd has every right to trash the GM that won six rings.

It's in the bag.

 

[Obscure Name]

Clinched over .500 at the break.

 

[Ale Xander]

DP KY water

 

[Coachster]

Water. The official water of the Boston Red Sox.

 

[moonshotmanny]

JohnnyTheBone Water!!!

 

[Al Zarilla]

Oh boy an A's postgame show with Bip Roberts. No thanks.

 

[patinorange]

Not going to be swept by a bad team at home water!

 

[Ale Xander]

Oh boy an A's postgame show with Bip Roberts. No thanks.

What’s wrong with Bip Roberts

 

[Harry Hooper]

Water. The official water of the Boston Red Sox.

nice!

 

[Al Zarilla]

What’s wrong with Bip Roberts

He's about as good a commentator as he was a player?

 

[Petagine in a Bottle]

He's about as good a commentator as he was a player?

So pretty solid?

 

[The Gray Eagle]

In honor of the championship rugby match tomorrow, great job by Joe “New England Free” Jacques.

 

[Ale Xander]

He's about as good a commentator as he was a player?

All star?

 

[Al Zarilla]

All star?

He was better than I remembered, 20.5 BWAR, .294 lifetime BA, one year as an all star.

 

[MFYankees]

Better than the Yankees official sex lubricant, Aquafresh

Considering anatomical factors, I believe that for the Yankees it's Loctite.

@JohnnyTheBone great streak so far.
Please post for me.

Game 89
The Red Sox won, but don’t break out the kegs.
Can’t really celebrate beating the dregs.
Let’s see if this win streak has any legs.
Break’s almost here. Let’s move up a few pegs.
Let’s not be Bobbys. Let’s try to be Gregs -
Ryan not Griffin in the world of Megs.
(Please don’t bring Ort back even if he begs.)
