Red Sox (Giolito) vs Padres (King): 8/9/25, 8:40pm

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

BREG is the MAN 

[vegasbob]

SD starter out early but the scoreboard just shows 1-1

[Maxbialystock]

Bregman didn't look all that slow and careful on the double.  My gosh, that guy can hit.

He has to be re-signed.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Never let Duran leave the 3 spot in the lineup.

[vegasbob]

Breg and Duran make dynamic duo with the bats

[vegasbob]

Machado too smart for his own good, Peralta not so much

[Jasonbay44]

Thank God we kept Duran 

[Jasonbay44]

Peralta having some real dumb blunders this inning 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Balks are accepted. Right up there with wild pitches, passed balls, and CI.

[vegasbob]

2 runs on 2 hits but the hits didn't come from any hits

Boy, does he.  Smart baserunning which helped bring 2 more Sox runs in.  

And, by the way, he should love being on this team and seeing the difference he makes.  He is already wealthy beyond the dreams of avarice.  Time to borrow from Ernie Banks who said, "let's play two."  

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I'd file this game, so far, under Weird.

Ernie wanted to play double headers everyday. He had no sympathy for his pitchers.

[Jasonbay44]

This game has had like everything weird that can happen, happen.. and it’s the third inning 

[Jasonbay44]

Outstanding play by Abreu

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Abreu is an excellent RF employing the eye test.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

CB has been very kind to Gio.

[Jasonbay44]

Giolito needs to settle down 

[vegasbob]

Bogart making it his game. Gio getting off kilter here

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

He swung. Wasn't even close.

[d-money]

s***** job by giolito here. 

[d-money]

Gotta have to get those bats going again. 

[vegasbob]

The real Rafaela shows up at the Petco

[vegasbob]

Can Jarren make SD suffer here No

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Yogi once said "baseball is 90 percent mental and the other half is physical."  

[Maxbialystock]

Two at bats in a row in which Anthony takes good pitches and swings at bad ones.

JH will put a stop on that check if Roman doesn't shape up

Yogi was the heavyweight champ at chasing bad pitches.
