[OH FOY]

Ticking Time Bomb with this BP, against a Home Run hitting team. Pray for the best.

[d-money]

Just pitiful offense. The writing is on the wall for this team in this game.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

My exact reaction to ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST.

 

Also, MIDNIGHT COWBOY.

[d-money]

Running out of pitchers pretty soon.

That is why that film is taught in film schools all over the country. Essential viewing.

Backatcha, Vegas. Try only leaving the house on SOX off days.

 

See, that's the trouble with the rest day concept. You can't just let them play. They need constant commentary and advice.

[YastrzemskI]

Also, MIDNIGHT COWBOY.

 

Also brilliant.

[illinoisredsox]

I'm sure Teddy Ballgame had an 0-7 night once. What the hell am I smokin'?

 

Probably. A better question would be did he ever strike out 4 times in a game?

 

Edit- I googled that question. Williams never struck out 4 times in a game.

The greats from that era didn’t strike out much.

[d-money]

Come on Velasquez

[vegasbob]

When a game crosses midnight local time, a team should get to use all its players again. Reset the roster at midnight

[OH FOY]

Great play.

[YastrzemskI]

What a play!!!

[vegasbob]

Chavis is such a hack in the field. Can't believe Cora uses him

[a700hitter]

Wow! Red Sox-like base running!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Another fine example of lucky being better than good.

[Station 13]

LMAO this is great

I was referring to Hector, not MC.

Countless times tonight the Twins have tried to give us this game, but the Red Sox have refused to take it.

[YastrzemskI]

ohhhhhh K!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The season is supposed to be a marathon, not one game.

True words my friend. One of those nights.. good game though.

[d-money]

Cmon, D, how many games are you gonna see like this one?

[OH FOY]

This kid looks strong.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Price s/b rested enough to finish this one.

When I googled the question, the article also said that Ruth, Aaron, DiMaggio, Gehrig, Ott and Musial never struck out 4 times in a game. Given their power, that surprised me a little. Other names listed of more recent vintage were Brett and Gwynn. One additional name who I was surprised never had one was our own #8. Thought that maybe at the end of his career someone might have gotten him for sombrero.

[YastrzemskI]

That looked like fatigue setting in for Polanco there.
