Game Day Thread June 1, 2021 - Red Sox (Richards) @ Astros (Garcia)

[d-money]

Richards has battled!!!! Let’s get this guy a win!!!!! Hit already!!!!!

[d-money]

This offense is brutal and just awful right now.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Devers swinging and missing very hittable pitches. Oh, well, maybe Renfroe can save us.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I smell a slump. How long is anyone's guess.

[TylerD]

This offense is brutal and just awful right now.

 

Yup. Richards has been off but over all definitely giving us a chance to win tonight.

[d-money]

Not looking good. Can’t give up that 3rd run.

[d-money]

Can’t let this inning get away from them.

[TylerD]

He’s out!!! Double play.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

He's out! Blind chUMP.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Robo umps on the bases, also? Btw, will robo umps have their own union?

[iortiz]

Richards is legit boys.

[iortiz]

Quality start!

I'd love to see robo refs in hockey.

[d-money]

Gutsy performance from Richards. Can’t say the same thing about this offense. It’s putrid!!!!!

[TylerD]

Quality start!

 

Ya he was good! I won’t lie. He scared the s*** out of me early but really rebounded and has given us a good chance. I’m impressed

 

Offense needs to step up.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Richards is legit boys.

 

 

Where would the SOX be w/o Richards and Barnes? Don't even want to think about it.

[a700hitter]

What happened to the Devers who took Aroldis Chapman’s 103 mph high heat deep for a Grand Salami? He can’t hit a down the middle fastball anymore.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Santana might want to bring a guitar to the plate next time.

Devers is in a slight slump; happens to everyone, even Trout. He's the least of the SOX problems.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If VAZ had gotten that single his last time up, that would have been timely hitting.

Ya slumps happen. Not too worried about it. The bats period have just been brutal last couple games. Shame, I hope we don’t waste this solid start from Richards.

[d-money]

This team is running out of outs. What gets me is that the stros don’t come into this series hot as a team. They’re making us look like amateurs.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Bob Gibson says: "Hold my beer." No pitcher that I know of had more quality starts wasted.

I just don't think Rafi can see it in this ballpark. Background not to his liking. Either that or its the background and how it comes out of Garcia's hand from that background. See how he does against a relief pitcher.

Lol valid point.

[d-money]

Sawamura has been very hittable. This could be over here.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

"I tink I saw a mura; I deed, I deed."

[moonslav59]

Two pretty weak hits there

[d-money]

This game is about to be over.

The lights are bright here but there is a nice green background in CF
