May 8 Red Sox (Richards) @ Orioles (Lowther)

[moonslav59]

Let's get the moon mojo to 3 in a row times two!

 

3 wins in a row for the Sox!

 

3 losses in a row for the Yanks!

 

Richards has been our best starter since after his first start of the season:

 

Last 28 days:

2.70 Richards

3.54 ERod

3.86 Pivetta

4.18 Perez

6.08 Eovaldi

Won’t be around for this one folks but I’ll be with you in spirit. Lol

[moonslav59]

The Sox need to score some runs for Richards. Despite his 2.70 ERA over his last 5 games, the team has gone 2-3 in those starts.

 

He's walked 12 batters in his last 27 IP, and the 3 Hrs hurt, so he hasn't been lights out, but he K'd 27 and only allowed 22 hits (.220 BA against).

All of a sudden in excited every night Richards is on the hill

 

If this guy could pitch like he did way back in the olden days, this team would no longer be considered the underdog.

The Yankees are facing future Hall of Famer , Max Scherzer. The Sox are facing a guy that I have never heard of . Chances of a Sox win and a Yankee loss are pretty darn good.

I expect you to be repping some Sox gear the next time you post photos of yourself!!!!

Nope. He is carrying a career ERA of 0.00 and a career WHIP of 1.00

 

Granted, 1 career IP in a scoreless relief outing against the A's...

Hahahaha I was wearing my Sox jacket too but got hot and took it off. I’m wearing Sox hat here, just hard to tell with my hood up!

Don’t we usually do bad against pitchers the first time we see them?

Nope we’re going to kick ass

Untrue. See the first 3 games this year.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I just hope all the good things I've been posting about Richards doesn't come back to haunt me.

[Thunder]

We had seen Means and Harvey plenty of times before

[d-money]

Not the way you wanna start the game.

[d-money]

Richards having trouble just with the first two batters.

[Thunder]

Not the way you wanna start the game.

 

Thanks Captain Obvious

[d-money]

Yankees just won. Great performance from scherzer wasted thanks to brad hand.

Thanks Captain Obvious

 

Duh!

[jung]

That is a shame. Wastes that terrific curve ball Richards threw. I am not sure you can throw a better curve than Richards is throwing at the moment.

Not his fault. Yes, he blew a save, but Nats had ample opportunities in the 10th and 11th

[d-money]

Brutal. Hope the bats are cooking today.
