6/8 vs. Angels, Game 1

[SoxFanForsyth]

Not much more infuriating than failing with RISP and then watching your pitcher get hosed on a strike 3 call.

Jeez Cafardo...wishing for Ells to regain 2011 power!! Forget it Nick. We just saw Ells kill his early season swinging to try to jerk the ball over the RF fences and rolling over everything. He will likely get a dinger now and again hitting this way. But I will take this Ells over the "swinging for the fences Ells" any day.

[Palodios]

Why would you throw to 3rd on the double steal? Hamilton is a much slower baserunner than Trout.

[Station 13]

Doubront has 0 caught stealing. Sometimes catchers has no chance.

[Thunder]

This 2-0 deficit is unacceptable. Should be 3-2 Sox at least. All ready too many men left on base.

Cable box has a DVR built in but I never remember to have it running for baseball games. Gonna' start to remind myself.

 

I have always wished that broadcasters would just pan back more often, more to show you were the fielders are playing but it would nice get a flash of the whole field situation every once and awhile as well. None of them EVER pan back. Lucky to see that shot once in 5-10 televised games.

 

I don't have to be recording to pause and rewind any tiv show etc.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Hamilton shouldn't have even been on base. Freaking piece of garbage umpire.

[Station 13]

Thanks blue for giving the A-hole a gift run.

[Station 13]

our lefties need to take these outside pitches off the monster.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Hey Ortiz try not to strike out here again.

 

Or ground into another dp.

[Palodios]

On the baseball show this morning, someone mentioned that Umpires have recently been changing the strike zone from a box to an oval. Maybe its anecdotal, but it seems like we've seen it quite a bit lately where nicking the corners is considered a ball. On the other hand, more pitches inside/outside at middle height have been strikes.

 

I wonder if this is a trend that the Red Sox need to put into the heads of their pitchers, and have them make adjustments. We've been seeing this umpires as being consistently bad, but maybe there is a shifting perspective for strikezones.

At least with mine if I am not recording, I can go back but not that far back. I can see something from the last minute or two but no farther. By the time I remember that I can do that the live feed is already too far away from the frames I want to view.

 

If I can just get myself to remember to record then that problem goes away and I can just delete the recording at the end of the game.

[Station 13]

Geez Papi doesn't look good today.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Pathetic.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Strike 1 to Napoli = Ball 3 to Hamilton

I'll send you reminder PM's!

[Station 13]

OMG Tek is fat.

[SoxFanForsyth]

What are we doing here

[VA Sox Fan]

OMG Tek is fat.

 

I didn't think so. All they showed was his face. Handsome as eva'!

[Station 13]

holy s*** mo.fo

[afjay]

Hanson keeps hanging breaking balls and not paying for it. Very frustrating.

[SoxFanForsyth]

I can't watch this s*** anymore.

[Station 13]

I didn't think so. All they showed was his face. Handsome as eva'!

 

I saw him weeks ago, yeah he was 'chubby'.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Don't worry about it guys, strikeouts are overrated

[Station 13]

I can't watch this s*** anymore.

 

This. Game is f***ing annoying.

[Palodios]

I can't watch this s*** anymore.

 

Better they get hits and do nothing than get beat every AB. Hanson will be out by the 5th, and certainly will have some earned runs to show for it. Might as well eat up their BP early today.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Its definitely not certain that he will have some earnies to go with an early exit. This is pathetic. The mere fact that we've had 8 opportunities to drive in a RISP in 3 innings and haven't done a damn thing is borderline embarrassing.

 

What the hell was Napoli looking at?!? He didn't swing the entire at bat. At least be competitive.

[jung]

Ortiz may have been invited to the post conference championship Bruins party last night. In fact I can just about guarantee that he was invited. If he went, today might be a tough day for him. Seeing four baseballs coming at you and trying to hit one of them can be tough.

Yeah, it is certain that he'll get some earnies:lol:

 

Thank you Carp!

[VA Sox Fan]

There ya go Carp!
