8/8 @ Jays

[Thunder]

LHP Brian Johnson (2-3, 3.74) vs RHP Mike Hauschild (1-0, 0.00)

 

 

All I ask is that we keep it going. Everybody is having so much fun right now. Win. Dance. Repeat. x6

[Fan_since_Boggs]

My lineup for today:

 

Betts RF

Benintendi LF

Moreland 1b

Martinez DH

Bogaerts SS

Bradley CF

Nunez 3B

Randa 2B

Butler C

 

You have to give Leon a day off, can't wear him out. Since Brock Holt has like 1 hit in his last 300 at bats, the guy is obviously desperate for a day off.

[Kimmi]

No letting up!

 

WIN!!!

Get a win boys

Johnson pitched games are always fun to watch. He has to work so hard to get outs,

I saw him throw a couple of fastballs over 90 hitting 92.

[vegasbob]

Going against another young "newbie". Will they make him regret his chosen line of work or make him think he has an HoF future? Should be a good shot for Johnson to get a win.

Who is Randa?? Didn't he retire? Sorry, just recall he scored the winning run vs Yanks

Beginning to think the infield surface here in Rogers is getting to be more like it was before they made all those changes..maybe contributing to the number of DP's. Bounces are truer than you would expect on a turf field and the ball gets to the infielders pretty quick.

[d-money]

That was a s***** start.

[vegasbob]

That was a s***** start.

 

It usually is. Actual Sox players often don't arrive until the 7th inning, then takes one or two to warm up. If they didn't use these imposters early, the league would have to ban them for being too good.

[Slasher9]

Sox are 4-0 when Guerin wears that yellow dress.

WIN

Johnson>Pomeranz

[Slasher9]

Btw...Mookie is having a baby.

[vegasbob]

Btw...Mookie is having a baby.

 

No wonder his bat is a little bit off the last week.

[Station 13]

This guy doesn't throw strikes.

[Bellhorn04]

Btw...Mookie is having a baby.

 

Cool!

[TylerD]

Johnson looking damn good.

[vegasbob]

Johnson and Pomeranz are both LH'ers. They both throw slow teaser pitches. What's the difference in both reality and perception ? Johnson works quickly and throws strikes with his slop stuff (14 in first 20 pitches)

[d-money]

I would love a 6th man rotation with Johnson the rest of the way.

[vegasbob]

Not funny, ******* rookie

[Station 13]

Smelling blood.

[vegasbob]

Mitch is coming back when it counts

[jung]

Mitch crushed that. No question Pearce has really helped Mitch by giving him days off and still being an effective hitter.

 

I think Mitch has lost some weight by the way. More through this season than last. So I really really have liked the Pearce move and would have liked it at half Pearce's production.

[vegasbob]

Hauschild hits Betts---Red Sox hit back big time.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Hauschild has left the house.

[TylerD]

Damn boys keep it going.

[jung]

What a chump team...a perfect match to gibby.

[Station 13]

That's why you don't walk anyone, Pomeranz.
