  1. Garcia may go to Hell in a bucket, but at least he's enjoying the ride.
  2. Jake's coming to the door. He's looking for Samantha. Long Duk Dong just told him, "She getting married to oily bohunk." "Married?" "Yeah, married." "Married?" "Married! Jeez."
  3. And Betts will try to do it again in Boston in a few weeks, when LA visits for all the maahbills, is my most contrived optimistic comeback.
  4. He still does it in LA. Because he can.
  5. Old school methods of debuting young arms in the pen before transitioning to the rotation are no longer tried and true; it's all true/false now, no multiple choice. Old pal Daniel Bard bounced around and finally bounced back... but seeing if he could start seemed worth a try at the time. Papelbon found his niche at the back end and never wanted to start again. I'd have to be a real oxymoron to hope to use the word "consistency" in the same sentence with "relievers". Guys thrive, burn out, find it again, then blow it... eventually losing jobs, before getting new life in another org -- to start their mercurial cycle all over again. Look at Kimbrel: bad in the NL, then great in the first half of '21, returns to the AL and bottoms out again.
  6. Nate has five different pitches to hold off Houston. Garcia throws like Framber, so it will be like facing a pitcher the third time through in the top of the first. And just like the Sox had three straight relievers fail last night, we're due for a parade correction from the pen -- three more in a row to come through; meanwhile, look for an Astro arm to cough it up. Tonight the odds even up.
  7. He's always pimping something. When he hit a walkoff a few years ago vs. NY, he was holding his hand to his ear as he trotted. After the scandal, I just assumed it was acknowledgement to the dugout that he heard the trash can bang or the buzzer go off.
  8. Right -- players could wear pinstripes and be heavy preseason favorites, or win 100 games and finish first -- and still not get this far in the playoffs.
  9. Which inning does the crowd's wrists go limp so they all spin hankies with their left hands? Is that when Dalbec pinch hits?
  10. Kike, please don't steal third with one out.
  11. YOR so dan, you probably think leftfield is Brantley's...
  12. Was Vaz trying to chip out of a sand trap there?
  13. Dang yo. We're all hammering Sale for 67 pitches in less than three frames, and his teammates are high-fiving him. They obviously must know he is f***ed up, and are just happy he could hand over the lead to the bullpen.
  14. All or Nothing Ottavino coming in. After the next batter, the score should either be 3-1 Boston or 4-3 Houston.
  15. Marshall Tucker -- take the highway.
  16. Ump sounds like my cat when I accidentally step on her tail. Otto, really? Paging the Incredible Houck! Will somebody please get Bruce Banner angry...
  17. Yor so dan, you probably think this inning's about you.
  18. Sale will leave it all there in the third. He's only at around 50 pitches, so can give another 40 this inning.
  19. In their pregame meeting, Astros' advance scouts advised their pitchers to let Boston get a runner on third with less than two outs.
  20. Astros' ball guy still cheating, throwing a stool at Renfroe's rope.
  21. Seriously, the Stros' pitching coach lives in a Hick Town and brags about it on his hoodie?
  22. Cora squeezed one of those joke hand buzzers in the dugout, right before that ball went through Altuve's legs.
  23. She is Marianna Vincente, actress and former Miss Universe of Puerto Rico. Red Sox Nation approves of this message.
