Why is McDonald facing a RHP. Holy crap Theo/Francona, he can't hit RHP.

What's the weather like in Boston? It looks like the storm of the century is brewing here in Philly...

Nothing in the Globe suggests any weather issues at this time.

63 and sunny 38 miles SW of Boston. Probably cooler there.

 

No rain expected until Tuesday.

Not normally a need to stress over the number 9 batter. Francona has his reasons I'm sure.

PEDEY!!!!

 

He was due!

[Spudboy]

Pound this scrub!

[redsoxrules]

Drew is on fire

[VA Sox Fan]

Good job JD!

 

Papi looks thinner, must be the uni!

[Spudboy]

Drew is on fire

 

Good thing, too. Beltre is 3 for his last 39. V-Mart is similar. Not to mention McDonald.

[Spudboy]

Good job JD!

 

Papi looks thinner, must be the uni!

 

He looks thinner in the white uni too.

[Spudboy]

PAPI!

[VA Sox Fan]

PAPI PAPI PAPI!!!!!!!

[redsoxrules]

Well thats an excellent start to the game

[transcam21]

I always miss the good stuff. "Nothing ever happens in the first inning" she says

[VA Sox Fan]

You're right. Think the navy blue makes him look even thinner.

 

Glad they are taking advantage of the pitcher's struggles in the 1st.

 

Papi's HR....450 feet....niiiiiice!

[Spudboy]

He got all of that one. Fastball down and in. His old wheelhouse! Good stuff!

[yeszir]

Awesome

Jesus Buch!

[redsoxrules]

now why the f*** would you walk the leadoff hitter when you're given a 5 run lead
