4/16 White Sox @ Boston Game 1

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Win this game for the late, great Tor Johnson.

Tor was a versatile actor; he played a cop in PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE. He also portrayed a psychopath in BRIDE OF THE MONSTER.

Mr Johnson was influential in opening the doors for other former pro wrestlers to become mediocre actors, such as Dwayne "the rock' Johnson.

 

In the movie ED WOOD, Tor was portrayed by former wrestler George 'the animal' Steele.

 

 

 

Go Red Sox!

Lol it’s getting a bit confusing. But Just ride with it. Just like we had to ride with the Sox ugly LA Chargers jersey colours yesterday.

 

Houck going today!!!

If the concensus here wants to go back to real dates please inform whomever is the OP. Personally, I'm not in love with it either, but this is a superstitious thread.

If we lose today we go back to normal dates I would think.

Makes sense to me.

[TylerD]

Going with the yellow and blue again.

[TylerD]

1-0. Jesus

 

We really like playing from behind.

Good afternoon. Hopefully the bats can light up this pitcher today.

[d-money]

Just 7 innings. Hate it. Need to bring the offense early.

I’m in between, but ya overall wish they would keep it with 9. Granted I like the extra innings rule. Having a man on second.

[jung]

This umpiring crew seems to be trying to get a head start on worst crew of the year. They are beyond terrible.

[d-money]

Keuchel doesn’t throw hard. Those are the pitchers that give us trouble.

So the paying customers who purchased a ticket for Friday night's 9 inning game end up with a 7 inning game today. Seems like they should get a 22% refund.

From the Red Sox??? Never happened.

[d-money]

Let’s get those bats going! Go sawx!!!!

I, also, dislike 7 inning games. I love the DH, but every change since then I've not enjoyed.

[d-money]

Cannot let this soft tosser beat us.

[TylerD]

Cannot let this soft tossed beat us.

 

Lots and lots of ground balls. He’s a good pitcher. Runs won’t be easy. Hopefully we can get a couple and hope Houck and the pen play well

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This type of pitching may be what we'll see when Sale returns.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

JBJ lite.

[TylerD]

Wow what a play by Renfroe Saving our bacon

[TylerD]

This type of pitching may be what we'll see when Sale returns.

 

If it wins games I’m fine with it. We won’t be seeing 100 plus from Sale anymore. But as long as he can give us 6 innings and a chance to win, I’m happy.

[d-money]

Runs plz!!!!!

Can't argue that.

[d-money]

Maybe we don’t know what type of velocity he will have but boy if he loses a lot of velocity i don’t know how effective he will be. I always said his pitching delivery would cause a major injury.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Well, at least Arroyo's shin guard is red.

[TylerD]

Thought that was gone. Wow.
