Game Day Thread 04.28.21 - Red Sox (Pivetta) @ Mets (He isn’t human deGrom)

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Lots of Czech swings tonight.

[a700hitter]

The Mets have a knack for losing deGrom’s games. Betting against the Mets on the days deGrom is close to a gambling lock.

The future is now, Moon.

 

Sure is!

 

One could also exclaim, "Since when has Barnes been a lights out closer?"

[mvp 78]

Where did this Barnes guy come from?

[moonslav59]

I'm starting to get used to this...

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Two wins with a total of 3 runs. I'll take it.

[mvp 78]

Filthy.

[Sox75]

Huge win!

Still a Pivetta non- believer?

[d-money]

Sawx win!!!!!!! Nice. The good guys won.

[mvp 78]

Sox are tied with most wins in MLB right now.

[moonslav59]

Two wins with a total of 3 runs. I'll take it.

 

Seeking out new ways to win!

[kenmeister]

I'm in shock at our pitching. Or, the lack of Mets hitting, take your pick.

[TylerD]

Awesome win!!!! Pitching was very good. Pivetta gave us 5 innings of shut down baseball even if there was some walks. Whitlock and Otta were deadly. Barnes is definitely our closer. Awesome guys. See you tomorrow.

[a700hitter]

Two wins with a total of 3 runs. I'll take it.

you would think that 3 runs total in 2 games would likely result in 2 losses.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Sure is!

You're presenting some tough questions tonight.

[moonslav59]

Who left the Barnes door open?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It only works against the Mets.

[oldtimer]

The Mets have very strong pitching, yet our was better. Sixteen wins in April with 2 games to go. Great start this year.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

You, too. I'd love too see the Mets again tomorrow.

Bahaha Degrom loses again. Has anybody ever been let down by his team more than that guy?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Good pitching beats good hitting. When pitching against the Mets, well, you see where I'm going with this.

[TylerD]

you would think that 3 runs total in 2 games would likely result in 2 losses.

 

Not when you have big dick Nick pitching 5 shut out innings

 

Also helps to play the worst offensive team hahah

[TylerD]

You, too. I'd love too see the Mets again tomorrow.

 

Lol that makes two of us. Texas isn’t super great though so that’s ok

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The SOX team ERA has definitely improved. Hell, two more games against the Mets and the SOX would be near the top.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Besides winning, another good thing about this game was very little chance of base running injuries.

[Thunder]

Great win gents! Now let's go play in front of a packed crowd in Texas

[Thunder]

Bahaha Degrom loses again. Has anybody ever been let down by his team more than that guy?

 

King Felix probably came close during his best years in Seattle

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

deGrom should read about Bob Gibson's career with the Cards, especially in '68.

[Maxbialystock]

Great game, great win.

 

Given that the Mets stink at the plate, I'm not so sure their lack of run production proves our pitching staff is great. I still love what our pitching staff did and think Pivetta was especially gutsy.
