Game 7
Hoped for a sweep against the Bucs.
The way it happened kind of sucks.
We’re quite upset collectively.
Want proof? Just look below and see
A poem made up of things we said
in Wednesday’s not-so-cheery thread.
Twenty-six angry things we wrote.
Perhaps I even used your quote!

“Is Duvall hurt? Why would he sit?”
“rancid baseball’ “TERRIBLE SHIT”
“Listless” “Gonna be a long day.”
“Benny Hill” “bruuuuuuutal” “brain-dead play”
“Kluber has nothing.” “more poor D.”
“This blows” “buzzkill GIDP”
“Wong did not go after that ball.”
“Can't catch a break today at all.”
“Oof” “What the ever loving hell?”
“As bad as deer ticks” “LOL.”
“SMASH ONE THE FUCK ON OUT OF HERE.”
“Jesus Christ, guys.” “Worse than last year.”
“Keystone cops.” “Damn fuck fuck fuck fuck”

“Donkey punched by the Pirates.” “Yuck.”

We’re on the road now. Time to play.
What will we get on this Sale Day?
Something new or more of the same?
Let’s go Sox. There’s Tigers to tame.

I'm taking my soon to be 92-year-old father-in-law to the audiologist early this afternoon. He's a fan, so we're certain to watch the game together over beers in his apartment after his appointment. I may have to ask him to turn down the volume on his hearing aids because I'm apt to let a few "fucks" fly during the game if the inept play continues.

As a resident of the Detroit metro area I always look forward to when the Sox come out to play the tigers. This year I am not. Sitting todays game out and I’ll watch on tv. Maybe I’ll get to one of the games this weekend but I’m just not feeling it.

I had planned to skip tonight's game, but now that it's on in the daytime, may as well watch while I cook and eat, eh?
Also, I am inspired by the efforts of @LynnRice75 to hang in there for a while.
Hoping for better games,
ITP

This team is just garbage right now. I know short sample size, the weather, and all. But man, this pitching staff blows and the defense is not helping.

I think the OF defense is quietly and range-lessly, terrible.

Where would you bat him? His last good season was in 2018.

It’s 7:10 am and I am still in bed watching what I hope is motivating for me to get up and be excited.

8 pitch inning with weak contact in each at bat. Continuing right where they left off.

If you’re reading this, you’ve thrown as many strikes as Sale has through two batters.

They can show the strike zone today but couldn’t for any of the home games??
