7/9/2023 Oakland @ Boston - Giddy up! Giddy up!

[E5 Yaz]

Apparently we have an Alfaro. Who knew?

Good news, though: Caleb "Not DaBlizz" Hamilton cleared waivers and is back with Worcester

 

[Al Zarilla]

I wonder if Boggsie has chicken for dinner tonight.

He looks the same (I think), so, probably?

 

[Rovin Romine]

The two Hamiltons are still short of a (Mike) Benjamin.

And that's sad.

 

[LogansDad]

STOP WALKING TONY KEMP

 

[E5 Yaz]

STOP WALKING TONY KEMP

That's the first time he's walked in the series

 

[LogansDad]

That's the first time he's walked in the series

They should still stop doing it.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Was Wong hurt yesterday when he was hit by a ball? I remember there being a delay.

 

[simplicio]

God, Alfaro may have the worst pop time I've ever seen.

 

[E5 Yaz]

They should still stop doing it.

Agreed

 

[wade boggs chicken dinner]

Margot Robbie > Margo Adams

Maud Adams > Margo Adams

He looks the same (I think), so, probably?

Makes me feel a bit better about my screen name.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

God, Alfaro may have the worst pop time I've ever seen.

Prom night.

 

[E5 Yaz]

This should be a fun half-inning

 

[Bergs]

This should be a fun half-inning

"these guys are due!" - DOB, probably.

 

[BigEazy]

Come on, Alfaro. Smash one out of here.

I want to see that glorious hair flowing around the bases.

 

[Al Zarilla]

"these guys are due!" - DOB, probably.

You're either hit or you're due.

- Willie Mays

 

[Van Everyman]

This guy’s hair is glorious.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Good AB anyway

 

[Bergs]

Let your freak flag fly, Aquaman!

 

[E5 Yaz]

Mrs E5 says that after two strikes, a batter should only be allowed three more foul balls. They hit a fourth one, they're out on strikes.

 

[patinorange]

Watching Hernandez is depressing.

 

[BigEazy]

Kike follows up the great AB with that shit shower.

 

[Bergs]

Nice job, boys.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Alfaro sees 11 pitches to lead off. Three pitches later, the inning's over

 

[LogansDad]

Kiké Hernandez: Rally Avoider.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Let your freak flag fly, Aquaman!

Sitting on the Sox bench
Eyeing pitcher's hurls with bad intent

 

[E5 Yaz]

Nice job, boys.

Don't worry, Oakland is done scoring for the day

 

[InsideTheParker]

Mrs E5 says that after two strikes, a batter should only be allowed three more foul balls. They hit a fourth one, they're out on strikes.

Does she like baseball, in general?

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

This is a dumb team.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Does she like baseball, in general?

Yes, very much so, except for things that she finds needless wastes of time. She was very happy with the rule cutting down pickoff throws, for instance, and no longer throwing the pitches in an intentional walk

 

[moonshotmanny]

We haven't even got a hit yet.

 

[donutogre]

Alfaro sees 11 pitches to lead off. Three pitches later, the inning's over

That was fucking painfully bad right there.

 

[YTF]

Good news, though: Caleb "Not DaBlizz" Hamilton cleared waivers and is back with Worcester

How fast can the MA State Troopers get him here?

 

[Joe Shlabotnick]

Meatloaf’s song is beginning to run through my head. Fortunately, its still relatively early and it is Oakland.

 

[YTF]

We haven't even got a hit yet.

Yet they've left about a dozen and half guys on base.

 

[Heating up in the bullpen]

Mrs E5 says that after two strikes, a batter should only be allowed three more foul balls. They hit a fourth one, they're out on strikes.

Mrs E5 couldn't be more wrong. If Manfred instituted that, among his other stupid rules, I'd quit the game.

 

[LogansDad]

Meatloaf’s song is beginning to run through my head. Fortunately, its still relatively early and it is Oakland.

"Paradise by the Dashboard Light"?

 

[InsideTheParker]

Don't worry, Oakland is done scoring for the day

You were saying?

 

[Bergs]

Jesus.

 

[LogansDad]

This game is stupid.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Winck has pumpkin'd.

 

[Curt S Loew]

Mrs E5 says that after two strikes, a batter should only be allowed three more foul balls. They hit a fourth one, they're out on strikes.

I agree. But only for the the visitors at Fenway.

 

[E5 Yaz]

You were saying?

Well, that's not my fault

 

[Archer1979]

My timing really sucks. Signed in just to see that go over the monster.

CheezIt Time!!!

 

[donutogre]

Winck has pumpkin'd.

He really has lately. Not ideal.

 

[Rovin Romine]

July-Winckowski needs to get in touch with April-Winckowski and ask how things went wrong between them.

 

[Al Zarilla]

A's announcer: "that ball was still going up when it hit the light tower." That's about as possible as a rising fastball.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Winck gets out of the inning on a Bob Bailey

 

[LogansDad]

July-Winckowski needs to get in touch with April-Winckowski and ask how things went wrong between them.

I really feel like it's overuse.

 

[LogansDad]

Getting no-hit by JP Sears would be pretty depressing going into the break.

 

[Curt S Loew]

"Paradise by the Dashboard Light"?

You took the words right out of my mouth.
