Five in a row (and 8 of 10)… important three game series in Chicago vs the White Sox before (hopefully) beating up on the O’s and Reds at home. Taking 2 in Chicago would keep that momentum going for sure. Hopefully Pivetta (2 ER in last 22 IP) can stay hot tonight. Go (Red) Sox.

So close, yet (still) so far. Arsenal 2021-22 in a nutshell.

Helluva comeback. Four in a row (for the first time this year).

The “107 points to his OPS in one night” is one helluva stat. Would be nice to see the bats get into a groove in the days ahead.

We should play Texas teams more often.

Welp… if they can’t beat Newcastle (playing for nothing) with Champions League on the line, they didn’t deserve it to begin with.

Was hoping Whitlock would start today, but Austin Davis gets his first MLB start on the hill today. Probably wise to save Whitlock for the Astros.- 2022 Boston Red Sox Thread
Cool! Do they have a Gadzooks?- 2022 Boston Red Sox Thread
Nice start to the series in Arlington. I’m heading to the game on Sunday. Seems like there’s a sizable Red Sox Nation group there for the whole weekend. Haven’t been to the new Globe Life… still kinda weird that it exists. Go Sox.- Arsenal 2021-22: The Youth Movement

Welp, I guess that Ohtani guy is still good.- 2022 Boston Red Sox Thread
Fenway is the best. A Tuesday/Wednesday game vs the Yanks should be a nice atmosphere… hopefully the games are still meaningful for the home team come September. For a first timer, I would stick to the 1B/RF grandstand or box seats. (The box seats are usually worth the extra $20-30, just for the added room.) The grandstand is *very* cramped, but “historic,” as those actual seats are 100+ years old. But if you’re tall and/or wide, they can be quite uncomfortable by modern standards. From the 1B side, you usually get a great view of the Monster, the field, and the CF scoreboard (as long as you’re not tucked away in the corner). Seats are less plentiful on the 3B side, but occasionally you can find a good deal. The bleachers are usually where the “rowdy” fans are, but it’s nowhere in comparison to what it was like 20-30 years ago. They’re obviously the “cheap” seats by Fenway standards. I’ve never sat on the roof boxes 1B side, but I hear the views are worth the extra $$. You can still buy face value seats from the Sox directly, even for those two Yankees games. If you’re targeting one in particular, I’d buy them sooner than later. It’ll eventually sell out. Beyond that… show up early, take the T to Kenmore Square (unless you’re staying close to Fenway), take in the atmosphere along Jersey St/Van Ness St (they block off the streets well ahead of time), grab a bite & beer at the Cask n Flagon (or another of the countless bars outside of Fenway) beforehand, and enjoy yourself! Even if you’re not a Sox fan, it is objectively a cool and unique sports atmosphere. If you show up early, you can sometimes sneak a view and a picture from the Monster seats, or if you wander around that area around the 7th or the 8th, you can usually find an usher to look the other way and let you venture up there and stand in a SRO spot for a bit. Hey, they won tonight! Maybe they’ll play some meaningful games in September after all… either way, Fenway is the best. Let us know how it goes.- 2022 Boston Red Sox Thread
This could be a loooong season, I fear.- 2022 Boston Red Sox Thread
That’s gotta be the most frustrating loss of the year so far. Hell, it could go down as the narrowest loss of the whole damn season. No-hit thru 9, tied 0-0 into the 10th. Sox finally get a hit and score 2 in the 10th. Robles K’s the first two batters in the bottom of the 10th — Then balks the runner to 3rd. Two outs, and a relatively routine grounder to 2nd is poorly thrown by “excellent-fielding SS” Trevor Story… and Kevin Kiermaier hits a walk-off HR to win it. FUCK.- 2022 Boston Red Sox Thread

Only two hits the whole game so far… would be interesting to see it go to extras.- 2022 Boston Red Sox Thread
Whitlock gets the start tonight. I’m sure he’s on a strict pitch count, but would be interesting see if he can get to the 4th or 5th. Many suggested he should be a starter, but I didn’t think it would happen this early in the season.- Arsenal 2021-22: The Youth Movement
“It happened again, it happened again…” Thanks, Brentford!- Arsenal 2021-22: The Youth Movement
Fuck yeah. Xhaka doesn’t do that enough, but it’s lovely when it does happen. - 2022 Boston Red Sox Thread
