  1. 4 @ Houston, followed by 3 in the Bronx for the first meeting of the season. I’m heading to tomorrow’s game (Red Sox Nation has a decent-sized group going). Should be fun. Go Sox.
  2. Luka needs some Larry Bird FT practice.
  3. Another good come from behind win... even if it’s the Marlins. Need to get some Ws as this daunting road trip awaits.
  4. Holy shit... this team might fuck some shit up in the West. Luka’s scary good, but needs to get to the line more if NBA refs can give him the benefit of the doubt like other superstar players (and make more than 30% of his FTs).
  5. Gatdammit, Leicester.
  6. Joke swap on Weekend Update was good.
  7. Definitely had to pour a whiskey to calm the nerves in the 9th... but I’ll take it.
  8. Good game so far... Would like to see Harper up with 2 outs in the 9th.
  9. Helluva comeback in the 9th tonight, to steal the rubber game. This team is... fun.
  10. Wow, those last 10 minutes were fun. Someone do the math... [tellingmetheresachance.gif]
  11. Didn’t Jost and Che typically do the “joke swap” thing in Weekend Update in a season finale? Was disappointed to not see it last night. Episode was solid overall. Not great, but still had its highlights.
  12. Spoke too soon, apparently. Shitty way to “blow” a save (bloop single, Pesky pole HR), but that’s how it goes sometimes. Eh, at least they get a day off tomorrow before heading to Bizarro Toronto.
  13. Xander Bogaerts is good at baseball. Like, really good. His 6/$120 contract looks like a steal at this point. (And of course I’m already fearing his player opt-out option after ‘22.)
  14. The way it was intended!
  15. Matt Barnes is good. Nice come from behind win tonight. Above .500 at home! Let’s keep it going tomorrow.
  16. Because it’s 105° during the day through most of the season. We already have one Arizona, no need to create another in MLB.
  17. The Giants have blocked them any time they’ve tried to move south in the Bay Area. It’s the A’s... they’re not exactly eager to write big checks.
  18. Vegas makes sense for the NFL (and even the NHL), but I just don't see it for Major League Baseball. Portland makes the most geographic sense, but I wonder if there's a division realignment if Montreal, Nashville, or Louisville are picked.
  19. Tough to lose one vs the O's (even after winning the previous 3), then a close one to the A's last night. Pitching matchup looks favorable tonight (E-Rod on the bump), but we'll see. Damn A's are sneaky good this year.
  20. Should’ve won that one last night, but that’s baseball for you. The Tigers scoring that many runs today doesn’t speak well for the pitching. Still, 2 of 3 is decent. Onto Baltimore for the weekend. Oh, and Sale is pitching off a mound again. Good sign.
  21. Man, fuck Globe Life Park. Maybe they’re just not used to playing to a “full” crowd nowadays? Or maybe this is the beginning of the regression... day off, then home vs the mighty Tigers. They suck too, right?
  22. Fun fact: Nick Pivetta’s 10-pitch at bat tonight was the longest anyone has against deGrom this year. Nice “sweep”... onto the mighty Rangers next. (The Sox didn’t have the best luck at the “old” Ballpark in Arlington, maybe they reverse the trend at the new park?)
  23. Nice win tonight vs. the Mets. First national broadcast game, IIRC. Going for the two game "sweep" tomorrow, facing some guy named deGrom.
  24. Eddie Rodriguez now has 31 straight starts going at least 5 innings. Not a bad stat. Good win tonight. Damn Patriots Day yesterday always sneaks up on me. It’s fun to chase a good pitcher early. Going for the stupid-ass two game sweep tomorrow. This is the longest home stand of the year, so wouldn’t be a bad time to string some wins together.
  25. Had they played 9 innings in Game 1, the Sox would’ve won. I cannot be convinced otherwise.
