Philly fans saluted the pitcher as he was leaving with a YOUK cheer.

 

Didn't Philadelphians boo the pope?

[Tedballgame]

Raffy Big Glove!!!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Devers 'd'!

They booed Santa Claus

[Tedballgame]

I just hope Kluber can get us to the 6th with the lead.

[Maxbialystock]

Unfreakingbelievable. Falter has a faultless first three innings, and the Sox lineup looks as though Cora was, for once, clueless in Seattle. Then the deluge, and it's 5-1, Sox.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

If a batter is uncomfortable facing Kluber, the batter must have a back problem.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

They booed Santa Claus

 

I knew it was some religious figure.

[Maxbialystock]

Now Kluber needs to avoid reciprocating.

[d-money]

Come on Kluber.

[Tedballgame]

What a dink hit.

[d-money]

I can’t watch kluber. He’s a car crash waiting to happen.

[Maxbialystock]

Kluber got a couple of bad breaks. The single was a pop-up that dropped in, and the foul ball was catchable by Verdugo, but he clearly felt that wall closer than it was.

[Tedballgame]

Whew! I thought that was gone when it left Schwarber's bat.

[d-money]

Gonna need more runs i feel in this game.

[Maxbialystock]

Schwarber comes thru! Schwarber comes thru! Easy-peasy fly to RF.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The 2 clowns in the booth sound like Phillies' announcers.

[Maxbialystock]

5-2 going to the 5th. Not bad.

[Maxbialystock]

I have the sound off as always. But I'm sure they are pro-Phillies because Bryce Harper plays for them, and he's the greatest!!!!

 

Not only did he recover in record time from Tommy John surgery, he did the surgery himself. What a guy.

[Tedballgame]

Dang it Kike

[Maxbialystock]

Dumbest at bat in the history of MLB. Kike is an idiot. He had the BB, but swung at something well out of the strike zone on a 3-1 count.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Kike hits weakly into DP.

Very good. Devers may deliver, but Harper's from DELIVERANCE.

[Maxbialystock]

Kike has no business batting 5th.

[Tedballgame]

Get the pen up. This is a winnable game. Forget about getting Kluber a win.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Klubber's 87mph fastball? Like going to a gunfight with a butter knife.

[d-money]

Christ this offense has to score more runs.

[Jasonbay44]

5 innings and 3 runs from this bum is solid. Take him out

[Tedballgame]

All in all, Kluber did his job. He got them 5 innings with the lead. He is a shell of his former self. He is pitching on fumes but he still got outs. Now bring in Winckowski for 2.
