    I actually really like this three man booth, I hope they keeps this going forward. Remy and Eck seem to work well together.

    infinite times better than some of those other dipshits they put in booth.

    I think the ump only took away one strike--a biggie-granted--but it was also right on the lline and not inside that rectangle.

    Sale has done exactly what Dr Max would have prescribed--mixed his pitches, plenty of changeups and sliders, lots of them low in the zone. But so far the Rays aint nibbling much and to me they are seeing the ball way too well. Thus 23 pitches and a walk and a single. Passed ball by Leon an irritant, but Sale sure didn't show it.

    New rules, it seems. Do not try to stretch singles off the wall. Let's see if Nunez goes.

    Great steal, thereby proving it didn't need to stretch that single. Late and hard slide by Nunez showed determination, hopefully not to much.

    OK, if I'm a Yankee fan, I'm getting nervous because my guys can't catch the Sox alone. They need help from the guys they are chasing, and that should mean continued weak hitting except this is now two straight games when the Sox have scored early. Then a blast, caught, by Beni and a hard single by Mookie. Plus now the bulls are running.

    I love it when Nunez and Mookie do this. They've been creating a lot of scoring opportunities lately with stolen bases

    Mookie is so fast. 3 in the first, just like last night.

    3 run lead. Sale might be a tad more aggressive in the 2d if only to get his pitch count down.

    Wrong! He stayed with a heavy diet of breaking balls and needed just 10 pitches. This could not be better.

    Devers is hot! If there is a change, it might be he ss happy with just hitting the ball squarely and not whether it's a dinger. I'm not at all sure of that. Just an idle thought.
