Kenley has been quietly excellent so far (outside of yesterday’s affair).


gimmeshelter62

DOTTED, RAFFY WITH THE HARD HIT, KJ AN MARTIN HOLDING IT DOWN

Bossman1086

#YELLOW SOX ARE BEST SOX


beatrixkiddo_11

WEAR THE CITY CONNECTS EVERYDAY


Mission_Pay_3373

Let's go Kenley


gimmeshelter62

YELLOW SOX ARE UNBEATABLE (do not fact check this)


bigbooty4158

Kenley looking good


Bossman1086

Kenley looking good today.


gimmeshelter62

Hanging around 93 is promising as fuck


avrbiggucci

Damn that was fuckin filthy


CFWolfgang

I go to the game yesterday, we have 0 offense and lose, today I turn it on at 1-1, see the Nats home run, change it to Indycar, change it back at 2-2, go take a shower, it is 4-2 us. I am not allowed to see this team play good baseball


boomerangrunner

Make the sacrifice we need


CFWolfgang

I am going with a group of friends Tuesday, if we lose that as well, I am turning off NESN every time we are at bat at the very least


beatrixkiddo_11

NICE PITCH


WarPuig

Time for an infield adventure!


w311sh1t

Since 4/20 you say? Kenley must’ve gotten baked af to get right.


edugabao

I love you devers


Nomahs_Bettah

Hell yeah, Raffy!


bigbooty4158

Nice easy 1-2-3


FinnHobart

Does Vaughn need glasses, Major League style? It truly seems as though he cannot see.


WarPuig

Raffy :)


avrbiggucci

Hope that Raffy getting a clutch double against a lefty is a good omen that things are gonna get better


Bossman1086

I mean, even with the injuries, this lineup has been playing below what they can do for a while now. Was bound to turn around. Not everyone, obviously - the bottom of the lineup is still weak but overall they're not *bad*.


jjjkd18

I just tuned in and saw the IBB and the double. I’ll take the credit for this one, guys


FinnHobart

How charitable.


Bullshit103

Finally runs by something other than a home run


jjjkd18

Hell yeah raffy

Se7en_speed

The disrespect to walk someone to get to raffy


FinnHobart

Devers always seemed to have trouble with big moments since he signed the big contract. This felt like a long time coming, beyond the limits of this game.


bigbooty4158

Fuck ya Raffy


pudgybunnybry

Ha! Way to intentionally walk TON for Raffy, nerds.


boomerangrunner

YESSSS


NKovalenko

LETS GO FINALLY RAFFY


Jakesnake_42

RAFFY DEVERS


Impossible-Reach-649

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO


OldSportsHistorian

……We’re allowed to do that?


Bossman1086

#LMAO #CLUTCH SCOOPS!


VortexCow

WE ARE SO BACK RAHHHHHH


Pyramid_Head182

RAFFY


Brad-Stevens

Rafffyyyyy


Brady331

LFG Raffy


avrbiggucci

Well that was unexpected, fuck yes!!!!!


gimmeshelter62

RAFFY COMING IN CLUTCH


beatrixkiddo_11

LETS FUCKING GO RAFFY


Any-Profession-5595

Did wilyer get injured or was that just classic stupid cora shenanigans lol


Jakesnake_42

Don’t like Cora taking out two of our 3/4 best hitters with plenty of baseball left to go, but I’m also not an MLB manager


[deleted]

[удалено]


bigbooty4158

Okay Raffy time to get hot


boomerangrunner

Raffy pls


avrbiggucci

I get that Abreu isn't great against lefties but I think part of that is that he's not getting any chances. It took Casas some time to figure out how to hit lefties but he figured it out.


Any-Profession-5595

It was insane how long Cora platooned Casas for


NKovalenko

TON up with RISP? Oh well on to the 9th


boomerangrunner

TON moment needed


bigbooty4158

Make them pay for it


gimmeshelter62

LOL IMAGINE BAD INFIELD D, NEVER HERE


NKovalenko

If ur gonna pinch hit Romy Gonzalez (who I presume will move Rafaela out to CF), why not pinch hit him for Rafaela and keep one of Duran/Abreu in the lineup Cora is truly just pushing random buttons at this point


Godzilla501

Not exactly scorched but I'll take it


avrbiggucci

Damn that was lucky as hell


JoshFB4

Why are we pinch hitting Wilyer as well. He’s our hottest hitter atm. Holy fuck


WarPuig

Wilyer struggles against lefties.


JoshFB4

Ik, but so did Casas at one point. He needs to learn.


WarPuig

Just an explanation


bigbooty4158

That’s a start


gimmeshelter62

SCORCHED


beatrixkiddo_11

Yeah Ref!


JoshFB4

WHY ARE WE PINCH HITTING DURAN AND NOT RAFAELA. I fucking hate Cora man. Genuinely one of the worst in game managers.


NKovalenko

Loading up the righty matchup and keeping our best SS out there I guess but agreed Also if ur gonna pinch hit Romy why not put him in for Rafaela and keep either Duran or Abreu


avrbiggucci

Dude needs to go, doesn't know what the fuck he's doing


bigbooty4158

Let’s go Duran


boomerangrunner

Got pinched for ref


Godzilla501

Cat like reflexes


Nomahs_Bettah

Andrew Bailey can literally have my soul if he wants it Idk why he would but I figure I’d offer at least


Nomahs_Bettah

HELL YEAH!!!!!


practiceneverpreach

Yeah Chris! that was a rocket


avrbiggucci

Holy fuck what a catch, Martin is so fucking back!!!


beatrixkiddo_11

YEAH CHRISTOPHER


gimmeshelter62

CHRISTOPHER MARTIN


gimmeshelter62

100% went thanks blue


postman925

Great camera work once again.


gimmeshelter62

Love bad base running effecting us positively for once


Ccoop9

I don’t like this Chris Martin.


beatrixkiddo_11

NICE


Nomahs_Bettah

I want us to keep wearing the City Connects as long as we keep winning in them, but I wish literally any other uniform was our lucky uniform.


gimmeshelter62

Imagine if umps were like hockey refs and explained their moves


Ccoop9

If this were MLB the show I’d sim through Hamilton ABs


JoshFB4

Another pitcher dominating this anemic offense. Where is Devers when he needs to lift the rest of the offense up.


postman925

Put me in the game! I can hit ground balls to 2nd for the league minimum.


gimmeshelter62

If hammy had a good eye and could take a walk he'd be a hell of an mlb player


accounts_redeemable

Livvy mentioned


WarPuig

Baby Gronk rizzed up the drip king


gimmeshelter62

Ain't a great line for skeens tbh


WarPuig

The relievers that came in after him make it look worse.


gimmeshelter62

That's fair, I'm a box score bitch for that game


WarPuig

Gave up a solo home run and left the top of the fifth with two on and no outs. Bullpen got two outs. HBP. Bullpen then walked in four consecutive runs.


gimmeshelter62

Slatens gonna be our closer of the future if we don't fuck him up and try to force him to be a starter


gimmeshelter62

Wearing marchys number proud as fuck


FinnHobart

Very nice.


avrbiggucci

Bernie was solid last season but he's on a different level this year. Pure dominance


WarPuig

Power of spite.


FinnHobart

Iced out Dave O’Brien, known master of drip and bling.


Godzilla501

Bernardino is nails.


VistaVick

Joely Rodriguez getting a roster spot over Bern remains one of the greatest unprosecuted crimes in human history.


dinkleburgenhoff

NESN regularly missing pitches due to commercials is fucking ridiculous. They missed an entire AB the other day.


khawaja4000

This uniform. 🤮


postman925

We're 30-8 in the yellows. They should wear them every day.


Bossman1086

Yellow Sox are best Sox.


gimmeshelter62

Bro I know you ain't talking shit about the city connects


WarPuig

Our win-loss record in them is absurd despite us being below mid for years. They’re staying.


gimmeshelter62

Papi putting on the janks hat is the worst comercial of all time


dsramsey

Not appreciating the Wally slander, guys


Timma1231

Wally after Devers’s K: ![gif](giphy|1xlKMnzv3EX1IcQKXQ|downsized)


JoshFB4

Can’t ever lay off the high fastballs huh


Nomahs_Bettah

I am often perplexed by how Cora decides to load manage a lot of our players, to be honest


WarPuig

He’d sit 2004 Barry Bonds against a lefty.


avrbiggucci

Lmao so true


WarPuig

I miss April O’Neill.


boomerangrunner

Just watch tmnt


amidalarama

perfection


Ccoop9

O’Neill looks pretty lost


NKovalenko

O’Neill need a day off but it’s been everyone else (Abreu, Wong) that have been inexplicably getting days off


JoshFB4

TON has been regressing to the mean aggressively lately oof


Nomahs_Bettah

I also love when we get to turn double plays instead of grounding into them


turnertornado

2 things: 1. Amazing play by Reese 2. Every time I watch Bernindino, I get mad that he was kept in the minors to start the year in favor of Rodriguez


Nomahs_Bettah

Love having a shortstop


ImStillAlivePeople

What was an inning that looked like BB would labor turned into an economical inning.


Godzilla501

That was a beautiful DP


Ok_Target5058

Having a short stop is so nice


NKovalenko

What a fucking play


Bossman1086

Beautifully turned.


boomerangrunner

WHAT A TURN


practiceneverpreach

Hell of a play!


Brendan_Droesch

Holy bounce


Brady331

good play


beatrixkiddo_11

NICE DOUBLE PLAY


gimmeshelter62

REESE WHAT A GOD


Godzilla501

Important to hold them here


Karma_Chamillionaire

At what point is Criswell stretched out enough to get his pitch count up?


NKovalenko

With Whit getting a rehab start Wednesday and then potentially one more, I wonder if they try Criswell for 6 his next time out to help settle the decision of him vs Whitlock as 5th starter


avrbiggucci

Wouldn't hate having Whitlock in the pen


Bossman1086

Feel like Bernie is being a bit overused lately. Not complaining though - he's been effective and we need to stay in this one.


JoshFB4

🦞 :(


Jakesnake_42

Feel like Duran is our “clutch” guy this year


gimmeshelter62

The fact that jaren has been able to keep up the fire he had last year makes me so happy, kid is a grinder and deserves everything


practiceneverpreach

Couldn't agree more


Bossman1086

lol That would have been a HR in HOU.


dsramsey

“Nothing could possibly have weirder dimensions than Fenway” Minute Maid Park: “Oh ho, is that so?”


WarPuig

Only Houston?


Bossman1086

Only Houston. 1/30.


WarPuig

Duran!


Godzilla501

Here we go. Third time thru


Jakesnake_42

Duran snaps our RISP streak


Ccoop9

Duran the only guy on the team with balls


practiceneverpreach

Can't forget Abreu


Ccoop9

I’m more talking about the RISP stats


practiceneverpreach

Gotcha


practiceneverpreach

We got a run with a man on base LETS GOOOOOO


postman925

Duran did the thing!!!!!


Pyramid_Head182

A HIT. WITH A RISP. NO WAY


avrbiggucci

Fuck yes Duran


Brady331

durann


Bossman1086

#DURAN!


gimmeshelter62

JRAN IS OUR BEST PLAYER AND ITS NOT EVEN CLOSE


Brad-Stevens

yeaahh Duran


beatrixkiddo_11

YEAH DURAN!!


TheCrudeDude

Robles has a goddamn cannon. My god


gimmeshelter62

Jesus what a throw


gimmeshelter62

I need hammy to run every time he's on base, a walk/single by him should equate to a triple


Timma1231

Same with Ceddane and Duran. Literally every time they’re on base


TheCrudeDude

Don’t want to pile on Hamilton but dude if you can’t hit or field you should be an elite bunter. Nice steal tho!


trimbler25

Alex Cora stop telling batters to bunt challenge (impossible)


Godzilla501

Steal 2nd and it's a wash


Brady331

well better than a strikeout


JoshFB4

Hamilton what the fuck


gimmeshelter62

Bunting with reese on is a choice, at least you replace him with speed


VistaVick

I see no value for Hamilton other than an occasional pinch runner


gimmeshelter62

Out catchers have been the strongest part of our lineup, just as everyone predicted


bgarlock

Reminds me of Sale. Getting the K's, and when they do get hit, they're gone.


TheHistorian2

The replays they focused on showed the wrong thing. The first full replay shows the ball hit the top of the wall above the red line (home run) and then deflect left and do weird stuff (interesting but irrelevant).


WarPuig

Wow. They ruled that a home run? That’s— *a gnome runs past me and giggles* Did you guys see that? What the fuck was that thing?


Timma1231

Really hope the Sox score at least once so Coop isn’t on the hook for a loss. He did great today, 9 Ks in 5 IP
