9/1 at the Yankees

[a700hitter]

Reed and Kimbrel in the pen tonight. I guess that he will try to get one more inning from Fister.

[Maxbialystock]

I'm so busy being a smartass I lost track. Is this really the middle of the 7th? Go Fister!

[Jasonbay44]

I obviously haven't been the biggest Fister supporter, but he has been rolling lately. Glad they didn't listen to me and DFA him.

He better... and if you rush me, two. He looks like an ace LOL!

[a700hitter]

Ump starting to squeeze the one a bit.

[d-money]

Fister pitching like a guy that wants an extension.

[Jasonbay44]

Fister has just been dominant

[Maxbialystock]

Really nice bunt by Headley and by no means as easy as it looked.

[a700hitter]

Pedroia is Johnny on the spot. I would send Fister out for one more inning and the hand it to Kimbrel.

[iortiz]

Peddy is the man and Fister his compadre hahaha Wow!

[d-money]

Fister has just been dominant

 

3 straight quality starts I believe. Nice to see.

I would bring out the pen. We will see

[Maxbialystock]

Defense pretty darn good tonight, especially Pedey at 2b and, surprising to me, Holt in LF. Betts made a nice grab in RF. Nunez flawless at SS. Devers solid on that throw to beat Gardner going to 1b. What am I forgetting?

Fister has just been dominant

 

Seems like he still has a lot of gas in that tank. I say, let him pitch the 8th!

[a700hitter]

He's going to the pen. Let's hope Reed is good tonight. Fister was dominating. I would have let him go 1 more inning because he was masterful

Ump starting to squeeze the one a bit.

 

The ump is actually on contract with the Yankees. I think he gets paid by the calls, not by the game result.

[d-money]

Is he gonna bring back fister? I hope the BP's warming up

If you are addicted to watching Red Sox baseball games and want badly to quit, this game is the wrong one to watch.

LOL!! I never want to quit. I just enjoy the addiction. Too bad for my wife.

[d-money]

Would be a lovely bounce back by this team if they win. They will have pom and sale coming up. Would love to win tomorrow against Tanaka.

[d-money]

Time to close it out! Let's go!!!

[d-money]

The good guys win!!!!!! Go sox!!!!!!

[Station 13]

Good game, especially clean game, PEDROIA for the win.

Doug Fister - thanks Dave!

Fister and Reed have both gotten past their initial poor outings in coming to the Sox.

 

Fister is better at getting guys out quickly than any other starter on the staff. Tonight he threw around 30 pitches in the first inning, and only about 65 through the next 6 scoreless innings. What a find, and Sox management was so right in saying that he would turn the corner and become exactly what they hoped for.

... and now, show me the money! hahaha

[iortiz]

Fister is a great surprise lately. If he continuous like this, give him the ball against Cleveland in the first game.

[oldtimer]

Nice to see the Sox turn the tables on the Yankess and do it with excellent pitching, timely hitting and good defense. Having Bogaerts getting some rest was the thing to do. Nunez delivered and now tomorrow we get JBJ back so Bogey should sit out again. His problems appear to be mental rather than physical so some time off to gain perspective should help.

Well said and totally agree.
