Tzu-Wei Lin playing 1B today, demonstrated he's brand new to the position. He charged in hard on the dribbler near the mound only to have to turn around and race back to the bag to take Johnson's flip and tag out Moreland.

Now JBJ bunts down the 3B line to defeat the over-shift. Definitely some experimentation going on so far.

Fenway looks so 1965.

EDIT: JD just hit one to Cambridge.

 

[Al Zarilla]

That wasn't a "mini-fat camp". He was working out at BC separate from the team because he had contact with a COVID positive person and was waiting on the results of his test. Once it came back negative, he joined the team at Fenway.

Sorry, I read something else. Might have been sarcasm.

Same amount of fans?

Bingo.

 

[Ale Xander]

Fisk looked so young in '99

This Dominican pitcher looks 150 pounds soaking wet, but he struck out the side, the top of the order of the NL All-Stars. Showing potential that he may turn out to be pretty good.

Nah, too small. Has a good arm while it lasts. He's destined for the bullpen.

Mark McGwire was a gigantic human being. Everybody just had their head in the sand.

 

[Ale Xander]

Oh my OhMar

 

[ookami7m]

Griffey’s swings in the HRD are just beauty defined.

On NESN, Bo Jackson just demolished an Oil Can Boyd pitch, blasting It to the top of the wall in back of the CF bleachers.

Dennis Lamp is now on in relief of Oil Can, and Bo is on deck, could get ugly here.

Excellent, thanks for the heads up. Sprint gets the T-Mobile deal this year too for those not yet in the know. Maybe the first time I've been glad to be on the Sprint network.

Didn't realize that. Thanks!

NESN will televise the two exhibition games vs Toronto on July 21 and 22 at 7:30 pm. Pre and post game shows too. O’Brien, Remy and Eckersley in the booth (NESN studios, not ballpark).

Tonight's intrasquad game is going to be on NESN at 7. Figures they finally come around to doing this for a night game after a week's worth of day time intrasquads running on Facebook and Youtube. Guess it's the same logic as moving start times to 7:30...gotta get that extra ten cents of ad revenue. As if the 35th rerun of Game 2 of the 1988 Adams Division semi-finals was an ad-generating juggernaut in that Wednesday 1pm time slot.

Doesn’t look like this years team on NESN

This seems to only be on NESN.com:

NESN on TV is showing the Red Sox vs. Toronto from 2018.

This is the tweet I saw. Apparently I misread it?

[Lose Remerswaal]

I wonder which would get better ratings?

 

[Ale Xander]

Can someone fill me in on Cesar Puello and Yairo Munoz?

 

[Ale Xander]

PILLAR!!!!

He's on our team now!

 

[Laser Show]

BOMB by Plawecki. No idea where it went but it left the yard.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Just tuned in and heard something about Travis Shaw apologizing for some remark. Anyone hear what that was?
Edit: never mind, Google knows.
Oops, also thanks to @Red(s)HawksFan

He criticized the Toronto "bubble" rules requiring players to stay in the Rogers Centre and hotel under penalty of fines and jail time.

 

[InsideTheParker]

The booth could actually tell us a bit more about the team and a whole lot less about themselves.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Is this a real ump?

 

[Red(s)HawksFan]

Is this a real ump?

Yes. Real umps have been getting their spring training work in by umpiring intrasquad games across the league.

 

[InsideTheParker]

Workman's the worst pitcher in camp so far, apparently.

 

[Vandalman]

Is this a real ump?

As real as they come.

He's been named the closer, apparently. Did Barnes leave?

 

[Ale Xander]

Old TWIB on Fox Sports. I am going to watch.

I don't think he has the constitution for it.

 

[Red(s)HawksFan]

Old TWIB on Fox Sports. I am going to watch.

FS1 dusting off these old episodes has been one of the highlights of MLB (and every other sport) being shut down. Why MLB Network hasn't made TWIB and The Baseball Bunch re-runs a staple of their off-hours programming, particularly during the winter, is beyond me. If not that, stream them somewhere at least.

 

[Ale Xander]

Any episode where Mel says the Red Sox are 10 games in front of the Yankees and they show every Yankee fan with COVID hair, is a good episode.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

An actual baseball game is on tonight. Indians @ Pirates, 7pm on MLB Network.

Fortunately the Sox were rained out after 5 last night, but I could see myself becoming this guy within the first week:
