Guardians (Cecconi) vs Red Sox (Crochet): 9/2/25, 6:45pm

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Good shut down inning by the Lock.

[Sox 42]

Lets win the game and worry about what happened to our ACE later.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I didn't realize that swinging the bat could cause Sox injuries. Casas, Devers and now Anthony.

[FredLynn]

5-1 lead gagged up by our do called ace?

A youngster who watches a lot of Sox games may decide that football is a safer option.

Crochet looks tired

He's been in unknown territory for a while. Tired makes sense.

[d-money]

The Sox are begging to lose this game it seems. 

[Larry Cook]

Anthony got hurt???

I'm surprised the real Fred Lynn hasn't initiated a lawsuit against you for defaming his name.

Swung the bat too hard. Sound familiar?

This is bad!!!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Rafaela doesn't have a strike zone, he has a reach zone. "If I can reach it, I'm swinging."

[iortiz]

Rafaela has way to learn about the game of baseball. They PH Hamilton for a reason. He should have taken a couple of pitches and let Hamilton do his thing. Hamilton would have been very likely a 3rd right now. This obviously is on Cora too. 

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Hopefully, Anthony is day-to-day. Not that it really ever happens with the Sox.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Eaton's been heatin.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Speed kills.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I luv timely hitting.

And 3-run homers.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

21st game with double digit runs. Ties Yankems for most.

[Sox 42]

There is no such thing as an ugly WIN!!

I AM the real Fred. The other guy is the imposter

That could be the grounds for another lawsuit. I'm sure you have a good lawyer.

Seems like he makes up his mind that he’s going to swing regardless of where the pitch is. Then he tries to play hero

He was a Sox hero tonight. I'm sure you were rooting for him.😁

I love Rafaela. If somehow he understands he has to be more disciplined at plate he’s going to be really special. Look at Devers early in the season when he understood that. His OBP was ridiculous in that span.

Absolutely!

Whatever it takes to win games. I just wish he’d do it more often.

You look at Devers. I've forgotten what he and his binky look like.
