6/10 SOX @ Yankems 7:35PM ET

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Houck(RH) vs German(RH)

 

 

Hopefully, Houck can follow up on Whitlock's excellent start last night.

Tonight's game is on FOX whether you like it or not.

 

 

Go SOX!

[dgalehouse]

A sweep is very possible. Without Judge, the Yankee offense looks pretty run of the mill.

[dgalehouse]

Sellout crowd at the Stadium last night. This is still the best rivalry in sports.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Dugo

Masa

Turner

Devers

Duvall

Casas

Arroyo

McGuire

Kike

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I'd rather see Duvall as the DH tonight and Duran in CF. Having posted this, I've probably guaranteed Turner a HR tonight.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wow!

[Oscars]

Devers is capable of such awful ABs, swinging at 3 balls well out of the strike zone

[d-money]

Someone should check German for sticky stuff.

[vegasbob]

Very nice grab Devers and cross infield throw from the knees. That was worth watching

It’s weird how that lineup struggles without judge.

If you read talksox regularly, you would doubt that because on here the Sox are just worthless, especially Kike Hernandez, the guy who hit the dinger last night (in a 3-2 win) and made a couple of good defensive plays.

 

However, I agree with you, and so do the networks.

5 righties in the Sox lineup against righty Cole. 4 righties tonight.

[Maxbialystock]

Yankee manager needs to fine that pitcher who allowed Turner to steal 2b--he got a huge jump, which he needed because he's slow.

[d-money]

Don’t look good against German. Come on now.

[vegasbob]

Good thing Devers can field because he sure can't hit much. Reminds me a lot of the $10 million guy who will hopefully be traded at the deadline. Do i need to jiggle the bait or will it be swallowed hook, line and sinker ?

[d-money]

You cannot fall behind these hitters.

[Maxbialystock]

I don't know. They've hit some good shots that were just catchable. Devers last out fly just now and kike's 3d out line drive last inning.

[d-money]

I really like houck when he’s mixing his pitches. I feel he could be our best pitcher.

[Jasonbay44]

Houck is looking filthy, but this is often the case for the first time through the order

[Old Red]

Houck’s looking like Drysdale out there for all you old timers.

[vegasbob]

Houck's mastery of the Yanks the first time through is actually amazing . 7 of 9 K's with great movement on the ball, changing speeds, low pitch count, all the skills of a veteran pitcher. Now for the second time through, after the Sox score a few runs.

 

Then it will be time to see if Tanner actually changes his approach, arm angle, or mindset that has led to trouble the second/third time through.

must be because Wong is catching. oh....wait.

[d-money]

German is rolling.

I agree with both of you. But this was the first time through the Yankees order.

[Jasonbay44]

A nice 350 foot homer at the little league stadium

[d-money]

Hope they get that run back. This offense has been dreadful.

[d-money]

What is houck doing?

[d-money]

Get those damn bats going.

[Jasonbay44]

Offense needs to get going. Houck has made one mistake in 4 innings

[Maxbialystock]

What is houck doing?

 

Like I said, this is his second time through the order.

 

Kike, Dugo, and Yoshiba coming up for the Sox in the 4th. Past time for making something happen. Except for Kike, this will be 3d time through the Sox order.
