    Just informed that the last time the SOX won a series in Oakland was in 2016.
  2. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    A definite YUP. I remember how much criticism Kimbrel took because he caused so much drama closing a lot of games. Playing for Boston is not easy and closing for Boston; that's even more stressful.
  3. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I'm fine with Barnes. I doubt another Koji is going to be knockin' on the SOX door anytime soon.
  4. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    No question; the SOX BP has made up for a lot of SOX weaknesses.

    "You want the drama? You can't handle the drama!"
  6. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Barnes has probably made himself unavailable tomorrow night.
  7. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    It's like Kimbrel never left.

    With all that foul territory pitching half of your games in that ballpark has to lower your ERA. OTOH, as a batter playing half your games there definitely has to lower your BA.
  9. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Skye Bolt? Sounds like he's fast.
  10. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    VAZ has been 'nutless' for a while.
  11. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    In many batters' at bats it's swing hard in case you hit it. In Devers' at bats it's swing hard because you're likely to hit it.

    6-9; four blind squirrels and only one found his nuts today.
  13. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Most excellent start by Pivetta today!
  14. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Imho, the most entertaining part of All-star break is the celebrity softball game.
  15. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    If I'm not mistaken, Ted was half Latino. I believe either his father was born in Mexico.
  16. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Actually, during an interview with Larry King, Ted was asked by Larry how did Ted handle the shift when he had to face it? Ted simply answered "I just hit it over their head."
  17. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    RF was even deeper before Yawkey got permission to put a bullpen there in 1940. The BP was later referred to as Williamsburg.
  18. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Yup. I believe he wrote a book about that and never mentioned 'launch angle.'
  19. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Nice swing there by Bobby.
  20. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Mr Gibson was one mean hombre on the mound. And, like you pointed out, he had some power. The guy looked like he had 1% body fat.
  21. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Ted Williams handled the shift quite well. He just hit it over their heads.
  22. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    There's your 1 run, Pivetta. Now go with it. Words Bob Gibson often heard when he pitched for the offensively challenged Cards.
  23. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    I thought a pop-up record for both teams was set last night, but I guess not.
  24. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    If one has to rest the SOX better players, doesn't it make more sense to rest them one at a time? Not questioning Cora because the SOX are in 1st place.
  25. SPLENDIDSPLINTER
    Just rechecked the line-up. Make that blackhole 6-9.
