[S. H. Frog]

Oh dude. That is gruesome

 

[joe dokes]

Turner hit in the head by pitch......

 

[picniclightning]

Oh damn. Turner just got hit in the face with a pitch. Blood flowing.

edit: typo

 

[mauidano]

Nooooooooooooo!

 

[S. H. Frog]

awful

 

[DontTauntOrtizMe]

Fuck! That was awful. Be ok, dude.

 

[picniclightning]

Walking off under his own power. Looks like he was struck in the mouth or the nose

 

[PhabPhour20]

Please be OK JT.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Crap; pitcher trying to throw up and in, b/c JT went for one earlier in the AB, hits JT in the head.

 

[A Bad Man]

Hopefully somehow his sunglasses or maybe part of the helmet shielded him slightly

 

[Ale Xander]

Oh f

 

[Blizzard of 1978]

I hope Turner is OK. That was nasty.

 

[Rovin Romine]

Crap.

(Also, Flemming is a ghoul.)

 

[joe dokes]

Flemming pining for more replays....

 

[Ale Xander]

Here's the footage. Warning: tough to watch

[InsideTheParker]

JBJ catches that; others, not so much.

 

[Daniel_Son]

Yikes. That was one of the more gruesome HBPs I remember seeing in recent years.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Now I get the Aquaman joke.

 

[joe dokes]

4-0 sox. Duvall SF; Tapia 2B; Alfaro hit/OF error.

Hopefully the offensive juggernaut doesn't Orsillo Sale out of the game.

 

[nvalvo]

yikes. I hope Turner is okay. That sounded grim.

 

[picniclightning]

Meanwhile Tapia and Alfaro both with solid base hits, Red Sox score 4 runs in the first. Overall a very difficult and tough outing for the Tigers young Matt Manning who is taken out after 1/3 of an innning.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

That was some catch

Fencing response there from JT? Gruesome. Gotta be some broken bones and/or missing teeth, etc. Oy. (And to add an atonal footnote; I'm not ready for more of the Bobby Dalbec experience). Get better fast, Justin!

 

[Daniel_Son]

Good news on Whitlock. Hopefully he's ready by opening day or soon after.

 

[S. H. Frog]

Tasty slider for the K

 

[joe dokes]

Flemming engaging in a really un-called for amount of radio-medico speculation.

That much blood that quickly makes me think nose or teeth.

 

[S. H. Frog]

That much blood that quickly makes me think nose or teeth.

Which is keyboard-medico speculation

 

[nvalvo]

How does Sale look?

 

[mauidano]

Really good to see that smile on Sale after he finishes his day with a comebacker.

 

[mauidano]

How does Sale look?

Pretty consistent, FB at 95.

 

[Daniel_Son]

Sale looks good. That slider to strikeout Nevin in the 2nd was beautiful.

Not ready for more Dalbec, but certainly happy to have him right now.

 

[joe dokes]

Sale with 2 solid innings. He has cleared the 1st stage of the Paxton Survival Vector.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Am I correct that Tiggers starting pitcher, taken out in the first, is back in now?

 

[Merkle's Boner]

Am I correct that Tiggers starting pitcher, taken out in the first, is back in now?

You are correct. Spring training!

 

[Doc Zero]

Can't bring myself to watch the clip, but, woof... Hoping for a safe & speedy recovery for JT. That shit is terrifying.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

You are correct. Spring training!

He should of put a fake mustache on just to be funny.

 

[Merkle's Boner]

Sale looks happier than I’ve seen him in awhile.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Did Turner’s lip separate from his mouth? Something was dangling. That was fucking awful.

 

[mauidano]

Sale looks happier than I’ve seen him in awhile.

Absolutely and every reason to have that big smile.

 

[joe dokes]

Sale looks happier than I’ve seen him in awhile.

While his fallen teammate is hauled away. [/hot take machine]

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Did Turner’s lip separate from his mouth? Something was dangling. That was fucking awful.

I was hoping that it was blood in his beard that was dangling (i.e., a clump of bloody hair).

 

[Hank Scorpio]

Haven’t seen Yoshida for a while. What’s up with him?

 

[dhappy42]

Haven’t seen Yoshida for a while. What’s up with him?

WBC, I think.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Really nice catch by Reffy.

 

[mauidano]

While his fallen teammate is hauled away. [/hot take machine]

 

[InsideTheParker]

Haven’t seen Yoshida for a while. What’s up with him?

On to Japan and the WBC.

 

[nvalvo]

Haven’t seen Yoshida for a while. What’s up with him?

He went 1/3 with an RBI double and two Ks batting fifth in yesterday’s Samurai Japan tuneup against the Hanshin Tigers.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Love Tapia! HR over bullpen.
