A few well-hit balls, but the wall was too far away.

Apple must be having a free weekend, because I am getting the game.

Ted’s mojo in effect. We’ve got this!

 

Enjoy it compadre. Where are your seats?

[a700hitter]

Who are these announcers on AppleTV? One of them seems to be outright rooting for the Red Sox.

[moonslav59]

I think, if Bogey runs out on that blooper, maybe the runner slows down enough to not get to 3B.

 

Maybe not.

[Oscars]

What are the chances the salami bat red sox score 4 runs to win this game, while the pitching gives up no more runs?

[jad]

Oh well. I guess it could be worse. The WS could have scored 2 or 3 in the first inning. The dog could have peed on the carpet.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Apple+? Shite, the RED SOX s/b on Lemon+.

[Oscars]

Eavaldi up to 70 pitches with 1 out in the 3rd inning……..

No idea. But from how they were talking, I just assumed it was an alternate crew for the RS.

While the Red Sox hitting has been woeful, another of their issues is that through chasing pitches they are 29th in walks !

i was watching Dalbec "work" his 10 pitch walk in the 2nd. He fouled off 3 true center cut pitches, another at the top of the zone, 2 out of the zone before finally getting to ball 4, on what actually was the 6th ball out of the strike zone. Good that he walked, JBJr couldn't help, but overall pitch recognition and swing selection is what helps the opposing pitcher and is a major characteristic of this prolonged slump and general losing record. It may actually be a failure by Cora/Fatse to have an organized game plan for hitting by this bunch.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Although the RED SOX are no better on Apple+, the picture on my TV screen is much better.

[iortiz]

Geez this team is plain death in every way man! Death!

[vegasbob]

Devers, Bogey, JDM coming up, followed by Dugo. Runs will flow

[d-money]

Is this season one of the biggest failures ever? Considering the payroll and also this team did win over 90 game last year .

[vegasbob]

3 more walks or HBP will in fact give us a run

[d-money]

I am still trying to understand why they brung bradley jr back? He stunk last year!

[vegasbob]

Nice work slow hand Julio

When Robert hit the HR, the Apple announcer yelled, "And the White Sox break it open!" It was 3 to nothing in the 3rd. And she was right.

 

The way the Red Sox are hitting this year, three-zip feels like 30-0.

I heard that. This announcing team is not good.

The Red Sox were 18th in walks last season.

The new hitting coach may be looking at a very short tenure…..
