8/13 vs. Tigers
- Thread starter Curtis Pride
- Start date
Game 118
For the 6th home game in a row we donned
the yellow jerseys because they had spawned
a winning streak, but it seems we were conned.
There’s no good luck color: One could turn blonde
and still have less fun. There’s no magic wand.
Remember the good old days when we fawned
about our offense? Of late, we’ve just yawned
over lame at bats and ducks on the pond.
If we don’t want other teams to abscond
with our playoff spot like they are James Bond,
swing a big stick rather than a small frond!
Game time: High Noon. Time for us to respond.

At home with tomorrow an off day? Poor planning
poor ticketgoers
And it’s gonna be a lot of kids with run the bases and the early start
Two days off in a row are bad? Especially when one is against a a lefty who's pitching well? How so?
I was going to post "Jensen Lewis can kiss the fattest part of my ass", but he's gradually won me over. Dude's pretty good on mic.
This. I'm anxious to see how much shorter the game is/seems versus how interminable they were a couple years ago when ERod took his turn on the mound.
He’s 27 not 67
If he really needed two days off, then Tuesday makes more sense.
So far the worst the Sox could play and still be “in it” was 7-3 going back to the start of the Royals series, for the 10-game stretch against weak opponents. 3-1 against KC. Losing yesterday really is “backs to the wall” for the next 4 games. They need to scrape a win away from ERod and sweep DC. to set themselves up for the upcoming gauntlet which I don’t expect them to play better than .500
I dont see the relevance.
Catchers need more off days than other positions
No one, particularly 6 year olds, care who is playing at C
But more importantly, Sunday makes sense for Reese as there many more empty parking lots on Sundays as opposed to weekdays.
He's still one of our best hitters and certainly has a better hitting pedigree than Urias
And is #1 player on the team who people, especially kids, show up to see.
Absolutely. And chances are a little better that he’s more likely to get un-fukt facing a pitcher than just watching a game.
I’m a little grumpy about his overall game this season regardless he should still be playing today.
They much be hiring video people from American Ninja Warrior instead of from America's Got Talent.
Also, can one actually sync gameday and the radio broadcast? The radio seems significantly delayed compared to game day.
Edit - about 60 seconds delayed.
