[Brandon Glick]

Yankees v Red Sox on Sunday Night Baseball? What more could you ask for? [Besides a winning season...}

[Randy Red Sox]

not a great pitching match-up

Sunday night ESPN games are the worst...

Only if the Yankees win, right? 😉

If they lose hopefully it's an early blow out, that way I avoid about six innings of s***** commentary

Then turn the sound off or listen to the calls from the NESN radio crew.

Meh.  Last night was supposed to be a good pitching matchup and was anything but.  Final score, 10-7.   I'm glad Crochet went 6 innings, but he did give up 5 runs, including a 3 run dinger in the 1st.

One thing I always wished they'd come up with is an option to mute the announcers but not the sounds of the game.

Great point!!  Nothing like the sounds of a baseball game and the crowd watching it.  But in all honesty I think you only get those when you are part of the crowd.

ESPN is horrible. And Karl Ravech is the worst of the worst.

At least they got A Rod off of there.

There is a vast difference in watching on TV as opposed to being in the ballpark. Being in the ballpark is a thousand times better. Sadly, TV is where most of us see the games these days. And we miss a lot.

It will be interesting to see if the Sox can deal with Rodon as well as they did with Yarbrough. They really feasted on the soft stuff that Yarbrough was throwing up there. They will need to adjust to Rodon.

I'm looking forward to watching Dobbins. The team is 4-3 in games started by Dobbins. Here's our current rotation.

8-6 The Wheel (yesterday made up for all of his losses in no run support)

5-4 The Opener

4-3 140 Innings or Bust

6-4 Ferris

This is one of the rare times I’m glad the game is on espn so I can watch it while flying 

[Nick]

Ok, I'll admit. It's nice having Toro right now. He can play both corner positions and he's a switch hitter.

We go lefty lefty, then 7 righties. Great to have options.

Cora understands the excitement surrounding Anthony.

 

 

“I think every market goes through this, right?” Cora said. “I think Kansas City (with No. 19 prospect Jac Caglianone) went through it, right, the last two months or whatever it was. I bet there’s other teams that have good players in the minor leagues and their fan base and people are gonna talk about it. So that’s part of the job.”

No other team has a #1 prospect Alex. Hell, it's not up to him. He has no idea when the call up is coming. Why doesn't he just say it's not up to me?

[FredLynn]

Let’s hope the Flops don’t play like little leaguers again. Or get blown out making the game unwatchable

He's just another word salad kind of guy.

2-0

Game over

What a disgusting awful team. Just unwatchable 

[Tedballgame]

Game over. Red Sox pitchers are the worst in baseball in the first inning.

One of the networks tried that experiment years ago. It was terrible!!!!

[FredLynn]

Why is Cora not fired yet?

[FredLynn]

Good thing basketball is on in a half hour. 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Sox game plan tonight is to kill as many worms as possible.

Last night Crochet gave up a 3 run dinger in the 2d inning and 5 runs in 6 IP.  How did that turn out?

To me the 2025 are not disgusting, awful, or unwatchable.  What was that line from the Money Pit?  The Tom Hanks character tells his fiancee "we have weak trees."  Well, this year the Sox have weak arms.

Caglianone started the season in AA, moved to AAA for about a week and then up to KC about a week ago. his dumbass is covering for the clowns in the front office.

Crochet isn’t pitching tonight. A bum is on the mound and the Yankees have a real pitcher out there tonight 

It’s over. We might score a run or two but we will never catch up.

Nice D by Toro.
