Need a bloop and a blast

 

well theres the bloop

[Slasher9]

There’s the bloop...now it’s time for the blast.?!.

Here's my thing with this game, how is that interference, when Devers didn't stop Bregman from going to 3rd (he wasn't realistically going) or stop him from going back to 2nd? He was arguing with ump mid play like a complete moron, then got tagged out, well after the Devers "obstruction". Not sure how this is obstruction, but Devers/McCullers collision at 1B wasn't.

 

Well, for one thing, McCullers had the ball. Devers didn't.

[Natick to NC]

This team has no respect for anyone in a Redsox uniform ...they look at Boston like they are nothing .Until Boston stops getting absolutely owned by them nothing's going to change from last year .

[Slasher9]

Green light?

[Natick to NC]

Pinch hit now ????

What the f*** does that even mean? We’re trying to have a 2 out rally here for chrissakes

[FredLynn]

Just get Beni a chance up there

[Slasher9]

Pinch hit now ????

 

For swi hart? I thought he was your pick for best player on the team?

[Natick to NC]

How do you take that Blake ?

[Slasher9]

Action pitch right here

[Natick to NC]

Hmm here we are

[Slasher9]

Damn. At least we went down fighting. Not a bad loss.

[Natick to NC]

Crushed it right to him ...Boston getting owned by Houston for a year now .

[SoxHop]

Damn...........

You must be high .

[Natick to NC]

2 runs ....deserves a loss

[d-money]

This miserable game finally ends. No offense last 6 innings. Pitching did a good job after 4 innings .

[d-money]

Get them tomorrow. Need to win tomorrow.

You are allowed to block 1B though, and not allow the runner to touch 1B, and take him out if he tries though, that is perfectly legal.

 

Grab the runner around the shoulders at 1st base and see where that gets you and if the runner turns for 2nd instead of legging it out down the line and you block him off, see where that gets you, even if the runner can't likely make 2nd base.

[Jasonbay44]

Will you guys relax? Even the most elite of elite teams lose games, were playing Houston on the road, with our worst pitcher and without Mookie...

I never said it was allowed, I said it had no impact on the play. I dont like the umpire rewarding Bregman for arguing mid-play about literally nothing, he wasn't going to 3rd, regardless of what Devers did.

[Station 13]

That game was acid.

Yes but we need a split here. Houston’s one of these elite teams. This team has to show the ability to beat these type of teams.

[Larry Cook]

The offense tonight was Missing Betts and Pedroia. I really hope Betts is not more seriously injured than we know.

 

Sometimes our team medical staff, who got their degrees mail ordered from Mexico City, tends to miss diagnose our players.

They can still split. Coming into the series, if you were hoping for a split, would this really of been the game you were like "yeah this one is a lock?"

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It's also difficult to win when there's two guys on the bench who not only can't start, but can't even be used as pinch hitters. At least Swi hit the ball hard.

And the rules don't like Devers impeding the runner. You want the ump to make a judgement call about where Bergman would or would not have been relative to his arguing the call when the ump can see with his own eyes that Devers has impeded him. You start making rules based on that logic and won't have a game anymore....You will have an endless series of judgement calls of which there are already too many.

Except the 2nd base ump didn't call impedance. The Marx Bros had to have a meeting before they made the call.

[d-money]

The warriors are gagging just like the Celtics against this crappy cavs team.
