Mother fuck.

Yammer's thread is in P&G

Yammer's thread is in P&G

Every thread is Yammer’s thread these days.

Edit — though not game threads.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

So annoying

 

[LogansDad]

God damn it

 

[patinorange]

Their approach to hitting is just different than the Sox.

 

[strek1]

These guys are a PITA

 

[LogansDad]

FFFFFFFUUUCK

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

I will take that outcome after that AB.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

10 pitch bunt in the end.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

And the bad defense shows up at the worst time.

 

[nvalvo]

I'm not sure Reyes has two there. Shame not to get the lead runner.

 

[patinorange]

Oooff

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

I'm not sure Reyes has two there. Shame not to get the lead runner.

Agreed. And getting the lead runner would have been great but you could see it was a bad hop on the replay

 

[nvalvo]

Oooff

I assume that "Oooff" is in response to the City Connect cow sculpture.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Sack up, Coldplay

 

[patinorange]

I assume that "Oooff" is in response to the City Connect cow sculpture.

Of course

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Not to Devers
Not to Devers
Not to Devers

 

[LogansDad]

This feels like the season on the line right here.

 

[budcrew08]

Of course

Oh come on, who *doesn’t* want a Red Sox cow?

 

[nvalvo]

Oh come on, who *doesn’t* want a Red Sox cow?

Imagine you get invited to a barbecue at some stately home belonging to a friend of friends or the parents of your kids' friend or something, and the City Connect cow is in their yard.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

That is their 100th foul ball tonight.

 

[budcrew08]

Imagine you get invited to a barbecue at some stately home belonging to a friend of friends or the parents of your kids' friend or something, and the City Connect cow is in their yard.

It would be a statement piece, but what that statement is? Yikes.

 

[LogansDad]

This is fucking brutal, man

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

They put up the best ABs and every guy can punish mistakes. They are a damn wagon.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

These are fucking crazy good at bats. Spoiling pitches, spitting on marginal pitches. Man, these are tough ABs.

 

[JOBU]

Throw strikes

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

like pulling fucking teeth.

 

[LesterFan]

Holy Story

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Story!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

LFG

 

[budcrew08]

What a play by Story. Holy shit.

 

[nvalvo]

Story, huh?

 

[Van Everyman]

Kiké!!

 

[LogansDad]

TREVOR

MOTHER

FUCKING

STORY

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Any lingering doubts about Story's arm strength?

 

[JOBU]

Kikè throws that into the 6th row

 

[donutogre]

I was under the impression Story couldn’t play short anymore. (Truthfully I kind of bought into all that but I am an idiot.)

 

[LogansDad]

Any lingering doubts about Storys arm strength?

I was wrong.

 

[mauidano]

I appreciate the defensive prowness of Mr. Trevor Story.

 

[patinorange]

They put up the best ABs and every guy can punish mistakes. They are a damn wagon.

They haven't had the greatest year, but you can see how they did it last year. Relentless. I think Verlander will get them deep in the playoffs.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

He has made a few of those in a short time and its stark how much they need that sort of defense.

 

[LogansDad]

Win this fucking game you god damned mother fuckers.

 

[LynnRice75]

They haven't had the greatest year, but you can see how they did it last year. Relentless. I think Verlander will get them deep in the playoffs.

Not if we steal their spot!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

They haven't had the greatest year, but you can see how they did it last year. Relentless. I think Verlander will get them deep in the playoffs.

If he throws it like he's been I totally agree. They make every pitcher work even if they have good stuff. Martin wasn't bad there - the Astros just spoiled every low and away pitch. It was brilliant batting.

 

[strek1]

I'd sooner see Wong bat that Masa at this point in time.

 

[LogansDad]

Masa is just completely lost right now.

 

[budcrew08]

Masa is struggling

 

[Max Power]

Non-competitive at bat from Yoshida.

 

[patinorange]

I'd sooner see Wong bat that Masa at this point in time.

That's a strange pinch hit.

 

[LogansDad]

Oh come on, Alex. That was fucking awful.
