    After 3, it is 1-1. marwin's dinger offsets Kirilloff's.

    Curse of the Bambino is long forgotten, almost like it was the work of Lovecraft or thatKing fellow, best recounted round a camp fire miles from light polution. This century, it seems Boston sports franchises have had more than their fare share of championships, and some of that success has come from players who had formerly played for Minnesota. I am too lazy to put research in, after all, it is only Spring Training. I just hope Marwin isn't the latest example... Red Sox: 0. Eduardo Rodriguez ( L) P 1. Enrique Hernandez (R ) CF 2.

    And Nick Gordon got his first hit of ST. Good for him!
  4. sampleSizeOfOne
    Wait, what? Astudillo drew a walk!?
  5. sampleSizeOfOne
    Buxton is probably getting work in on the other fields? Am in patient to see him and Simmons on the field for maximum wow factor. I hope they are behind who ever pitches most to contact...
  6. sampleSizeOfOne
    4-0.
  7. sampleSizeOfOne
    3-0 lead in the 4th. And this last inning brought some OPSs down. I was excited for a moment whne battters 4-8 in our line up all had OPSs>1. Welcome to spring training...

    Dogs and cats living together... Mass hysteria.
  10. sampleSizeOfOne
    Yeah, part of the shortened game thing is to always play out the bottom half of the inning. It is so pitching can be planned more reliably. Anyway... To quote chief, "Winnah!"
  11. sampleSizeOfOne
    Scoreless after 6. Luke Farrell is on the mound. Isn't he the one who didn't give up a BP homer to Buxton earlier in ST?
  12. sampleSizeOfOne
    You can always ask... Have they batted back to back yet? Lineups and substitution strategies may be against us on this. I would be satisfied to see one hit and the other score, and pinch running is more likely to happen. A sfor current scoreless game, Broxton does have one of two walks.
  13. sampleSizeOfOne
    Stretching... As the starting pitchers get more innings per start in preparation for the season, so too do game thread intro writers. No need to provide thoughts to get the discerning reader through the whole game as other posters are round for relief, but it is good to work on your offerings. Today bald declaration pitch. It bears down on the reader, giving them only a split second to decide whether to respond or not. It is good to keep these up in the zone, so readers are likely to pop them up if they make contact... 1. Nelson Cruz is going to rake! 2. Broxton will fly! 3. Sano will pick it! (er, How was that? Did i blow them by everyone for a K? Or was the catcher able to hold on to that last one... I know i can be a little wild) Noon on Tuesday (Toonsday?) March 9th Baltimore Orioles 0.

    If only we could have hooked up Texas' powergrid last month to this over-reactor...

    Yeah, i remember seeing we were up 2-0 after 2 due to Buxton and Lin singles round a Riddle triple, and that Cruz also had singled in the first, but i got distracted and didn't check in. What else happened?

    Today (noonish, Saturday 3/6) we face the vaunted line up of the East Coast juggernot known for the covering of their feet. But, like Twins, socks are identical, meaning they can't start off on the wrong foot. Wait.. Twins don't have to be identical... What else couldi be wrong about. Twins: 0. Michael Pineda (R ) P 1. Max Kepler ( L) RF 2. Mitch Garver (R ) C 3. Nelson Cruz (R ) DH 4. Miguel Sano (R ) 1B 5. Byron Buxton (R ) CF 6. Willians Astudillo (R ) 3B 7. Brent Rooker (R ) LF 8. JT Riddle ( L) 2B 9. Tzu-Wei Lin ( L) SS Red Sox: 0. Ryan Weber (R ) P 1. Enrique Hernandez (R ) SS 2. Jarren Duran ( L) CF 3. J.D. Martinez (R ) DH 4. Rafael Devers ( L) 3B 5. Hunter Renfroe (R ) RF 6. Marwin Gonzalez ( S ) 2B 7. Bobby Dalbec (R ) 1B 8. Kevin Plawecki (R ) C 9. Yairo Munoz (R ) LF Curious... Twins have 6 right handed batters followed by 3 left handed batters. Discuss.

    Welcome, Simmons! Make yourself at home!
  21. sampleSizeOfOne
    What i miss today?
  22. sampleSizeOfOne
    Following in the footsteps of David Ortiz. Danny's gonna hit up a storm! If i root for him, am i just rooting for a Red Sock?
  23. sampleSizeOfOne
    In play, out(s) Oh well. Tampa Bay claims victory, 5-2.
  24. sampleSizeOfOne
    Broxton up with bases loaded, down 3 w/ 2 outs in the final inning!
  25. sampleSizeOfOne
    Yeah, i saw that we had 2 errors in the first inning, and Maeda pitched around them. Glad we got a him a few more pitches in to work on things...
