Let's get it done and clinch in front of the 40,000 asshats in the stands.

I call that bold talk for a one-eyed fat man. I hope you have the reins in your teeth and both hands full of artillery.

Speaking of which, where the heck is the Sox artillery?

E Rod..... please help us today!

I'll be one of those 40,000. The last two games have been great but an infinitesimal part of me kinda wanted them to clinch just so there was no possibility of me witnessing it in person.

I understand, but I like our matchup vs erod.

Enjoy the game!

To clarify: I honestly wanted to thank you for starting the game thread early. Someone had to, and it was possible the rest of us would have hung back until 8ish.

The Sox still have a big lead, etc, so I see these games as informational, which means of course I'm getting worried. Bullpen still stinks. Yankees pitching has our lineup throttled. Price, who was seriously looking like a $30M/year starter, got beat up fair and square. Shame on Nunez for the error, of course, but he got that double and scored the only Sox run. And those two unearned runs would not have happened if Price hadn't first loaded the bases up. Severino intimidated our guys. Their lineup intimidated Price.

Next up, ERod, the little girl with a curl. When she was good, she was very, very good, and when she was bad, she was horrid.

Last night I thought both starters were cautious in the 1st inning and not attacking the strike zone. it worked for both.

I think ERod needs to be that way tonight without walking everybody. I know he loves to throw all fast balls in the 1st inning, but I'm hoping he gets in a couple of changeups and a slider or two. Also that he keeps the ball low--not all of the time, but maybe half the time.

As soon as Betts hit that, Tanaka is back to nibbling.
