8/21 Beat the Astors

[JohnnyTheBone]

More like Brian Ought-Not-a

 

[nvalvo]

Urías has been pretty great since coming over. I think his Sox OPS might be around .875 after today.

 

[derekson]

How will they screw this up?

Devers is up

 

[LogansDad]

Goody. Two more runners to strand.

 

[JOBU]

Do not fuck this up

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Swing like you're trying to ring the bell using a mallet at the carnival, Raffy!

 

[Doc Zero]

Just get some runs for fucks sake

 

[nvalvo]

Another foul ball to the third deck.

 

[JOBU]

Come on man

 

[LogansDad]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

 

[patinorange]

Another foul bomb.

 

[Doc Zero]

Ughhh

 

[nvalvo]

Alright, that'll do.

 

[LesterFan]

Surely they score here

 

[Bergs]

Alright, boys.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Let's get crooked!

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

A comeback here would really crush the struggling Astros.

 

[twibnotes]

Wow - that pitch was way outside and devers still reached it and struck it well

 

[Dewey's 'stache]

Fleming sucks... we have to endure the nepotism of him not even being close to his brother and deal with his verbose dimwit making up his call of a game we can see on TV that doesn't match crap.

I enjoy Sean pocking him when they are in the booth together. It sucks that Sean also makes Joe better.

Between DOB and this knob we are screwed as fans.

To contrast, I want to be able to hear the Giants TV and radio at the same time when I dial up the SF games. That should be the goal for the John, Tom and whatever the Sam does leadership.

Sean McDonough is a blast to listen to and he pokes fun nicely at himself and others in the booth. I could listen to him do a synchronized swimming match

 

[twibnotes]

If the Astros had our D, we’d have 5 runs

 

[Doc Zero]

AVOID THE NOBLETIGER

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

That'll play!

 

[nvalvo]

Hey! Someone else made a defensive miscue!

 

[LogansDad]

Wow that was really, really bad defense there.

 

[derekson]

BABIP is not on our side tonight

 

[Bergs]

Crazy good play by Maldanado.

 

[LogansDad]

God damn it, Casas. That was his worst at bat since April.

 

[JOBU]

Awful Ab

 

[twibnotes]

Casas has been outstanding but that was a devastating ab in what feels like an important game

 

[Bergs]

Goddammit, Tris

 

[shawnrbu]

1st pitch swinging.

 

[nvalvo]

It felt like mismanagement to me to let this dude face all our lefties, but he didn't do terribly. It's up to Duvall.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Literally how did you hit that 91 mph nothing ball 100 feet to LF. After he could not throw a single first pitch strike to anybody.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Casas has been outstanding but that was a devastating ab in what feels like an important game

True

 

[absintheofmalaise]

BABIP is not on our side tonight

You rang?

 

[nvalvo]

Woooooooooooow.

 

[LogansDad]

What a fucking squander. Just awful.

 

[shawnrbu]

Another missed strike.

 

[twibnotes]

That sucked ass

 

[Obscure Name]

Well that was pathetic.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

What a fucking squander. Just awful.

Hey they got one.

 

[derekson]

I was fully expecting that to be called a strike..... and swinging K on the next one anyhow. 1 run out of bases loaded and 0 outs...

 

[strek1]

What a difference in "clutch" when Turner gets the night off. All these runners and all we have is ONE run besides the 3 run homer.

 

[bosockboy]

Can’t get the big hit.

 

[Doc Zero]

Weak bullshit

 

[LesterFan]

10 LOB, 3-17 RISP. In 6 innings.

 

[patinorange]

Two shitty pitchers. This really is the game they need.

 

[normstalls]

This game is an all timer on the frustration meter

 

[LogansDad]

Fucking pathetic.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

I don't understand what it is with this team sometimes. Every once in a while the manager takes a sabbatical in critical situations. Guys forget how many outs there are, what has happened earlier in the game, mere seconds before. Can't field. I don't know. Team is weird as hell.

 

[Bergs]

Just embarrassingly shitty baseball. Even Raffy's hit was stupid.
