Since this 3 game format started, every team that won the series won the first game, except for one.

We're Number None.

Tolle has been a moose. I hope he's on his A game, tonight.

Hey Moon, which former ballplayer's nickname was Moose?

Moustakas.

Hey, the .654 batting Riley bashed a 3 run homer to win it for the Braves.

Maybe we need more sub .660 batters.

You're correct. I was actually looking for Bill Skowron.

Try Skowron

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Btw, please don't mention the Bruins' game anyone. I'm recording that game. I'm specifically asking Fred.

Watching NBC's promo and holy -- did you know the Red Sox sold Babe Ruth to the Yankees?

And there's Buckner, because it happened in New York!

A lot of crap from last century, but not one single highlight of Sox-Yanks since 2004? THIS CENTURY!

Why does NBC have the game on so late when only old men still watch baseball? Who's going to buy sponsor products when we're already asleep?

I forgot that Moon was a youngster.

Prime time. NBC can charge more for advertising. You know it's always about the money.

Having to listen to Slob Costas already put a bad tone on this series

[vegasbob]

Nothing new there, hope the ligament held up on the check swing

Costas and Girardi. A tag team from hell.

[mvp 78]

Glad they started with Babe Ruth stuff. Didn’t know!

[vegasbob]

Cam getting worked by Adley then a hit. He is looking much better

[mvp 78]

Great AB

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Excellent at bat.

Tolle will go 5+ innings allowing 2-3 runs, Schlittler will go 7+ allowing 0-1 run.      Fred will declare Game Over

It’s already over 😉

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Schlittler's pitch count is 22. The Sox best hope is getting his pitch count high. 

[vegasbob]

100% of outs are strikeouts, but at least Cam threw 22 to get them

[FredLynn]

Hard choice-watch the B’s opener or watch the Flops lose

Hmmmmm

They should have at least shown Pedro bouncing Don Zimmer…

Hey Fred, do me a favor and not mention the Bruins' game. I'm recording it. Appreciate it.
