OK, one more win and I will go back to the correct English spelling for the month (Maye, of course). But, we’ll have to win a game started by the Giants best pitcher, who is named after an airport. From another quarterback, LFG!
Blueberries already? Picked my last Navel oranges, still have some not as good Valencia, and then it’s wait for peaches.I wish NESN would invite Jonny Miller into the booth for an inning. I used to have mlb radio and would listen to him while I picked blueberries.
Geaux, Sox! Hope the injured guys are mending and that Masa is back soon.
I hope so. Yoshida is questionable though.... likely Refsnyder there if he's not. Just getting Valdez and Dalbec out of the lineup looks to be a big improvement.C: Wong
1B: Cooper
2B: Grissom

Is that on the table for tonight?
NO! We don't even have flowers on the blueberry bushes yet. I was referring to previous years, hence the phrase "used to have."Blueberries already? Picked my last Navel oranges, still have some not as good Valencia, and then it’s wait for peaches.
Miller was an announcer for the Red Sox in 80-82, his Wiki says. Would be very cool if they could bring him over to the Sox booth for an inning.
Any word on the Yoshida hand injury? My guess would be that RFsnyder gets the nod unless Cora gives Raffy another partial day off and has him DH with Dalbec at third.C: Wong

Who could forget Webb Field (TXK) in Texarkana.who is named after an airport.
He's due. I ain't scared of that Jesse Plemons-looking MFer.This is going to be a very challenging game tonight, with the Amazing Criswell facing Logan Webb, who currently has a 19-inning scoreless streak going.
Not an ideal starting pitcher matchup for us.

Yoshida banged up. Left Sunday's game after jamming his wrist on a swing.Yoshida still banged up (I know he jammed a finger on Sunday) or O'Neill banged up?
Mikey Yaz back in town. I'm sure there will be considerably less fanfare this time around. Love this kid and my wife's fave team is the Giants.Giants

I'm about over the Grissom era and it hasn't even started.Cotillo just tweeted that Grissom not activated because he has the flu.
For. Fucks. Sake.Cotillo just tweeted that Grissom not activated because he has the flu.
I guess the malignant demon that was terrorizing Chris Sale wasn’t included in the trade.Cotillo just tweeted that Grissom not activated because he has the flu.
Shit happens. I want to see him too but this will be (hopefully) forgotten in a week.I'm about over the Grissom era and it hasn't even started.
Has been the last two gamesWe have a North Californian Red Sox fan starting this thread. That has to be good mojo.
Regarding Oak Island, I’m betting that they didn’t find the treasure. (Please don’t spoil it if you know.)I can't believe MLB scheduled this game on the same night that the finales of both The Curse of Oak Island and The Secrets of Skywalker Ranch are on. E5 will have to have multiple screens going.

Any mention of Jonny Miller and I have to repost his impersonation of Vin Scully. The Spanish and Japanese ones just slay me.I wish NESN would invite Jonny Miller into the booth for an inning. I used to have mlb radio and would listen to him while I picked blueberries.

Deeelightful. Thanks!Any mention of Jonny Miller and I have to repost his impersonation of Vin Scully. The Spanish and Japanese ones just slay me.

Webb's 5 good starts have been at home x3 (#27 for park factor), @TBR (#25) and @SD (#28). His @ LAD (#14) start he got shellacked. Let's give him a warm Fenway (#2) welcome!Webb is a tough one to draw.
Recently Jonny Miller turned 70 and throughout his overlooked, illustrious career, he has seen them all: Ted Williams and Dwight Evans, David Ortiz and Pedro Martinez; Mookie Betts and Xander Bogaerts.
Jonny went to college at Boston University and began covering the Red Sox in 1972, when they fell a half-game short of the pennant. “I predicted that before the season even started,” he said. From 1975 to the present, he has covered every Sox game, up to the first two games of 2018 World Series.
In 2018 he suffered a stroke on his way to game 3 in the World Series, a series that Boston would eventually win.
Over the years, Miller has been a constant. He usually asks the first question at every Red Sox postgame press conference. And he can say whatever the heck he wants.
Wow, he looks like his voice would sound different after such a big change in his appearanceSo much interest in Jon Miller here. He has taken off a considerable amount of weight, apparently on recommendation of his doctor(s). No illness that I have heard about, just a smart thing to do getting up there in years (72).

I know the difference, but I would have sworn that I had heard the Giants b'caster referred to as Jonny. Sorry, must be wrong.I'm confused by these reference to Jon Miller as Jonny Miller. Ordinarily it wouldn't matter, but there are 2 different guys with similar names:
Jon Miller is the famous Giants broadcaster who worked for the Sox years ago.
Jonny Miller is the local sports guy who has been here forever:
