Must wake bats!!! Rum for Jobu!!!

[Riverbrian]

 

Berrios pitched like a madman. Props.

 

Or did the Red Sox hit like... umm... Sane Men. 

[Blake]

Quite the pitching duel here.

SCHOOP!!!!!

[notoriousgod71]

Why the F is Porcello out of the game?

[diehardtwinsfan]

 

now let's hope the O gives him a win... or at the very least a no decision. hits and bombas… in that order. 

Schoop was listening... 

[snotboogie]

I told myself I couldn't stay up. I have to get up soooo early tomorrow. Dang it, this is one of the really good games of the season

[bighat]

Awful call on Kep there for strike 2.

I hear ya man. Hang in there.

But if "bombas" is plural, either order works. But since Schoop started things, let's go ahead and use your suggested order.

They pinch hit for Castro in roughly the same situation Sunday. Castro is (was?) hitting well and we’re at a point in the season where you just let Castro hit.

Yeah...wasn’t advocating for a pinch hitter. And don’t have a pinch hitter anyway for that scenario.

Why the F is Porcello out of the game?

He suddenly announced his retirement from baseball?

 

It’s a damn good question.

yeah, but I want bombas with runners.. not solo bombas… I don't trust the pen with a tight lead.

OBI-WAN KEPLERONI!!!!!!!!

[FlauerPauer]

Great at bat by Kepler. Dude is having a helluva year.

[diehardtwinsfan]

nice AB Kepler.... 2 one and no outs... time for bombas

[Riverbrian]

(True Story)

 

That was a great AB by Kepler

It’s a damn good question.

 

He couldn't have done that in the third inning!?

 

Seriously weird decision to pull him though. He was cruising with a reasonable pitch count.

Nice job Polanco!!!!!!

[Aggies7]

Don’t know if the best hitter in the league should be bunting there but god I hope I’m wrong.

[HawksNest]

let's exorcise the RISP demons from yesterday's game

[bighat]

Amazing job Polanco!

[FlauerPauer]

Don't know about bunting there.

[70charger]

Not sure he should have been bunting, but that was a damn good bunt.

[diehardtwinsfan]

believe it or not, I was hoping for that sac bunt... not sure why

[FlauerPauer]

Sac fly would be great here.

[Aggies7]

God almighty put it in play you’re a 50 year vet

8th Inning down by a run...

 

 

 

Yep... Bunt

[David HK]

Marking exams today, with the ballgame in the background.

 

Boston announcers: "Kepler part of an outflield that many believe is the best - west of Boston."

 

Oh, fer....

 

Where's that puke emoji?

 

[notoriousgod71]

Nice base running, Kepler.
