7/31 vs Indians

Fister is dialed in!!!!

I thought the Guardians were good. Fister is making their offense look like the Red Sox.

Don't jinx the Sox!

Fister is dialed in!!!!

The Guardians have elevated only 2 balls against him over 5 innings. One was a fly out and the other a hit but the runner was cut down trying to stretch to a Double. This is how Fister pitched when he was at the top of his game.

Devers is impressive, hey keyed in on pitches. Xander is just guessing up there.

Somebody mentioned it earlier today, but we have several hitters who have trouble recognizing and handling the slider. Xander is lost against the slider as are most of our hitters. Next question. Why don't more of our pitchers throw the slider?

[NativeBostonian]

This is the first time I have gotten to listen to Jonny Gomes and I have to say, I like what I am listening to. A little bit unconventional. But, very interesting.

[Bellhorn04]

Holy crap, Devers, what a way to start his Red Sox career.

[a700hitter]

Great game by Fister!!

[SoxHop]

Big round of applause for Doug. That outing was huge.......

[Bellhorn04]

The reverse lock was on with Fister. Everyone was expecting him to get hammered, so he pitches like an ace.

[MADSTORK]

For all us arm chair Managers would you go Workman in the 9th or bring in another pitcher?

I'd go with Workman.

[Bellhorn04]

Workman on a leash.

[Jasonbay44]

Just got off work and had to double check and make sure Fisters line was real...

[d-money]

It's one game fellas. Have to keep pace with the stankees. Might have to sweep the Guardians.

Sometimes you need to be pressed into service for the good of the team.

 

Devers goes 4 for 4. Fister pitches a gem. My mojo may be used up after this one.

You were flying close to the sun today........ let's squeeze out one more win..

[Spudboy]

I am happy for Fister.

 

I cringed when that 2 run shot was hit.

 

Never the less he had it tonight. He made the Cleveland lineup his bitch.

 

I hope the fix that they made on his landing foot location sticks. Johnny Neuron says it enables Fister to have the big hook and more drop on his sinker.

 

It would be a Godsend if he can replicate tonight's performance. Especially since ERod and Price are question marks.

 

Got to love what we see from Devers. I hope he does not gain any more weight.

 

Nunez is kind of scary with the glove but that boy can swat and run.

 

It is indeed only one game but it sure feels good to say positive things about this team. I hope that they can go on a run and secure a playoff spot.

This is for the Sox real MVP.

 

[illinoisredsox]

Devers kept his head on that play and got an out. Benintendi would have thrown the ball into the stands.

 

Maybe, but if Benintendi is pressed into playing 3rd base, this team is in real trouble.

[TylerD]

Solid win tonight over a great team. Fantastic pitching and offense!

[Station 13]

Devers hit a ball today that was 109MPH.

 

He seems to smoked a lot of balls.

The more I see of that quiet, quick, bat the less I worry about his glove. (Which, by the way, seems to be just fine). Didn't the greatest hitter of all time stink as a left fielder?

 

This kid looks like the Sox (and maybe the league) MVP by 2020---if not before. 20 years old!!! Anybody check the kid's birth certificate?

[Maxbialystock]

Fister was incredible. Wild applause for starting him (and maybe fixing his delivery). I would have tossed him onto the ash heap of history.

 

I loved the hitting of course, but it still amazes me what a difference the starter can make. However, I gotta give credit to DD for acquiring Nunez and bringing up Devers.

We were just stretching you out for tonight's big pitching matchup.
