Pedey will bring us back to taking strike 1!

 

You can't change that old dirtdog!

 

I absolutely love Pedey's approach at the plate! If you are hitting in the leadoff spot or 2nd in the lineup, you are going to get some good pitches to hit early so why not ambush the pitcher early on? Pedey is just a smart overall baseball player. The day he retires or the day he is no longer on a Red Sox uniform will be a sad day.

I’m fine w/ one guy out of 9 doing that. I can handle that. But 9 guys being too patient vs a pitcher when it’s likely their BP is better than their SP.

LOVE THE GUY!

 

Funny story... my wife & I always go to the Red Sox series in Seattle. We wait in the Starbucks on the ground floor of their hotel every year, about 4 hours pre-game. You see pretty much every player, save Papi. Shhhhh! Don't tell anyone. She's gotten about every Sox autograph, including "THE VERY SCARY Price (her words)." The guys catch the bus outside. Met Beni & his family on his first day in the bigs there.

 

So, a couple years ago, she catches Pedey in the elevator. He's carrying his baby, but undeterred, she asks for the autograph. He says, "I'm holding my baby." Later, she catches him in line at Starbucks. Still holding the baby. The bus driver inexplicably lets her stand right next to the bus door. (Ok... she's really cute!) Then comes Pedey. The look on his face was "STALKER!" Then he laughs & gives her a quick signature.

 

LOVE THIS GUY! It will be almost as hard losing Pedey as it was losing Papi!

Just tuned in so missed a lot. Looks like ERod has been on, but that Orioles reliever just mowed our guys down after the WP. Squandered a good opportunity. 3 straight changeups up to Lin who was completely clueless. Beni almost as bad.

 

But 6-1 after 3 is awfully nice.

That’s good stuff there 57. I can practically see the look on Pedey’s face :)

Beautiful....Jones should be out just on pure principle for jogging from 1B to 2B. He knew it was fair just before he rounded the bag and Mookie gunned him down for jogging.

The thing is the ball didn't get lodged between the tarp and wall. Mookie was able to simply pick the ball up and throw it back in.
