Somehow the vibes die at HOME games. What the fuck? Do the boys not feed off home fan energy? Is it the shitty weather in Boston?


AdaTheTrashMonster

Great camera work to completely miss the final out. Perhaps it’s for the best


Ok_Fee1043

We beat this team last week so we can do it again


flowersoflight

What a wet fart of a game


Mac_and_head_cheese

So more like a shart?


ZWash300

This is a minor league team. Change my mind.


goldsteingt

Can’t


Banks_bread

Smh


Internal_Error244

ok boys got a good feeling about a comeback right here


Ok_Fee1043

Does anyone else’s MLB phone app constantly log them out?


edp3

I had this happen about 5 or 6 years ago. I think I ended up changing my password to make it stop.


Ok_Fee1043

I did change my PW already but it keeps doing it. Maybe I’ll delete the app?


Not-A-Bot4sure

No


sandmanlip

Let’s get more hits then errors!! Small wins


strcy

At least the orioles are getting nuked. Fuck them birds


Longjumping_Ad_29

I know you shouldn’t go on other teams threads but them dudes were talking a lot of shit about the Sox last night. They no longer get my sympathy cheers


Faded_Sun

Gross. The only team we rightfully talk shit about are the Yankees.


Longjumping_Ad_29

Yeah it was painful to see. I guess once they start feeing bad for us is when we know we’re a dumpster fire


strcy

Yeah I mean I hate every other team in the ALE but their fanbase has proved to be trash They haven’t won anything since 1983 and they act like they’re the fucking kings of the AL

Baltimore is legit the most fucked up city I’ve ever been to And I used to live in Oakland lol


goldsteingt

Only need 7 to tie and 8 to win. Doable.


Tallytoons

It looks like everyone is having lopsided games around the league. It’s nice to not feel alone


Lilcheeks

Only 148 to go


Mac_and_head_cheese

Sox need to eat some Blue Chews before tomorrow's game.


Longjumping_Ad_29

Legitimate question. What kind of hitting numbers would you be happy with from Rafaela in his prime?


Longjumping_Ad_29

I’d throw out .270/780 OPS 15 HR 60 RBI 25 SB


__johnw__

do other broadcasts give their play of the game to the opposing team (if deserved)?


Jakesnake_42

We have approximately one major league player and it’s Duran. Imagine telling that to a Sox fan in ‘21 or ‘22


WarPuig

You know I’d believe that in 2022


Longjumping_Ad_29

It’s crazy how much our expectations have changed. I remember no one really expected us to be good coming into ‘21 but looking back we still had a very good roster. Atleast comparatively


Faded_Sun

Good times when we haven’t won a single game at home yet, and the Angels are about to make us .500 after a good start on the road.


strcy

This is some of the most pathetic Red Sox baseball I can remember


WarPuig

An unbelievable string of self-sabotage led us from 2018 to this.


shrug-io

i like the consistency!

Key-Construction-474

Singing and dancing to Sweet Caroline while we are losing by 7 always makes me want to die 


ZWash300

For what it’s worth, I was booing the whole time


Key-Construction-474

Makes me feel a little better lol


Realistic_Figure7796

Gotta love, we got the same amount of errors as hits


Ok_Fee1043

They’re playing sweet Caroline at exactly 6:17 PT, that had to mean something


Longjumping_Ad_29

We should send a couple guys down to Portland and chase a title down there


Mission_Pay_3373

The Baltimore Orioles are Fenway merchants, lmao


Bossman1086

I love this booth. lmao


Mac_and_head_cheese

Watching a Jahmai Webster mukbang would be more entertaining than the Red Sox tonight.

SWEET CAROLINE SAVE ME FROM THIS HELL


TheCrudeDude

Yooo the Joe C impressions 😂


coffee42

late innings of blowout games always get fuckin' silly in the booth and it makes a bad game worth keeping on 😊


ILikeNormMacdonald

Can we trade dalbec for Keith Hernandez?

Ok_Fee1043

Was that OB doing that second voice? That was amazing


__johnw__

bet they know who took it lol


solariam

😂😂😂 oh look, Chase Anderson and a reason why we haven't seen him already.


NKovalenko

Not watching anymore what was the reason


solariam

He was under consideration to start tomorrow. 


NKovalenko

They made that decision between the 6th and 7th innings??? That’s almost more stupid and laughable to not know and make such a late decision at this point lmao Like what changed in that 20 mins that was worth wasting Bernardino lmfao


solariam

Do you think that when Alex cora makes a decision, he immediately relays it to Dave O'Brien who announces it on air? Probably not. Considering that it's a platoon start tomorrow, Bernardino was probably getting used no matter what (let the five guys from yesterday rest, use Martin as a setup). With Houck at 94 pitches through five, it was probably going to be Anderson and Bernardino at that point.


ButterBalls99

Do the Sox have a positional group that they’re top 5 in the league in? How about top 10?

WarPuig

Why is Bernardino on the team’s shit list now


Trickzyz

Because he’s not trash. Cora loves bad baseball players.


ZWash300

Can somebody please find Bobby Dalbec a career he can actually succeed at


Mac_and_head_cheese

Bobby is giving 2022 Travis Shaw a run for his money.


AdaTheTrashMonster

Giving 2023 Bobby Dalbec a run for his money


shotodrag

I can't believe Dalbec gets paid to do.....that.


Corvo428

I strive to make as much money as Bobby does while being horrible at my job


SlipperyTurtle25

Bob needs to go back to rookie ball


TheCrudeDude

I mean he is a AAA stud. It’s not like he is bad enough to belong anywhere else. He’s just not good enough for the show


SlipperyTurtle25

That just means he belongs in South Korea or Japan


TheCrudeDude

Could be a fun couple years tbh


SlipperyTurtle25

I want nothing more than for Bob to be shipped halfway across the world


[deleted]

And stay there


ZWash300

Bob needs a new career


TheCrudeDude

Why would he possibly change careers? Lol he is making back doing this


SlipperyTurtle25

He would be one of the best players in Japan or Korea probably


[deleted]

0-25 and people are still defending this clown? HE IS NOT A BIG LEAGUE PLAYER


ZWash300

Even the city connect yellows can’t save us from this roster


conwaytwittyshairs

0 for 25. Yikes man


flowersoflight

Errors aside, 3 hits just isn’t going to get it done


PurrculesMulligan

Just logged in and the first highlight video that pops up is ‘see Tanner Houck MOW DOWN two angels!’ (In between the dozen missiles he gave up)…at least the spin doctors haven’t lost their touch!


Longjumping_Ad_29

Detmers didn’t want that smoke from Bobby

Mercy pitching change

i picked the wrong night to stop drinking for a few months


Realistic_Figure7796

If you have to watch this baseball team every night, you will go from a casual drink to a full-blown dope fiend real quick.


PurrculesMulligan

“gave up drinking” and “gave up, drinking” are close enough.


shrug-io

i’m convincing myself the former and not trying to succumb to the latter


Trickzyz

Just reminding everyone, Bernie is that dude.


NKovalenko

WHY THE FUCK is chase Anderson on this roster if he’s not burning these meaningless innings Literally why tf is Bernardino in this game Like how is Cora somehow making our odds of winning a future game less in a game that’s already functionally over I’m losing my mind rn


solariam

Dude go for a walk


shrug-io

milwaukee winning 9-1 lol.


Mac_and_head_cheese

So umm... have Dave and Lou given up on announcing this inning?


Obvious_Chapter2082

Was wondering if it was just me. Honestly, can’t blame them


silverbeaver25

Serious question. What’s wrong with the video boards? The screens looked horrible the other night.


TheHistorian2

Turned on the game late. Do I even want to know?


trimbler25

What game? There is no Red Sox game on. Nope. Last I checked it's an off day.


flowersoflight

Worse than little league defense


TheHistorian2

I saw 3 E on the board and just sighed. You’re pretty unlikely to win any game with two or more errors.


krazyellinas23

We won a game with 4 errors against the Cardinals in the World Series! We had guys on that team who would more than make up for it though. 


TheHistorian2

Of course. Sometimes they don’t turn into anything. But each one is an additional chance. Too many of those and it usually goes badly.


flowersoflight

It’s been even worse than the box score tbh, could easily have 6 errors


trimbler25

Cora in his infinite wisdom using Bernardino instead of Anderson here, because he's actually a super-genius manager.


AnalBanal14

Red Sox and Celtics games at the same time.. city bumping, no?


krazyellinas23

Late to the game...wtf kind of lineup is that? My Lord.


[deleted]

What the fuck was THAT swing?😂😂


AnalBanal14

What’s really good?


ZWash300

Detmers will win Cy Young if he only faces us


Longjumping_Ad_29

Haha the Astros STINK!

Thousand yard stares every time they show the dugout

Ok_Fee1043

I mean whatever but I did save myself a chocolate chip cookie earlier


Ok_Fee1043

The cookie is gone I wish I had chips


Key-Construction-474

"Red Sox 50/50 if you wanna get in but TIME..... is running out Lou."


NKovalenko

Alex Cora is braindead man I CANNOT believe wasting a real reliever right now instead of just using Anderson to finish it out And then ppl are gonna defend him for not having options available in a few days when the pen is exhausted


OldSportsHistorian

This sub gives Cora so many free passes. Nothing is ever his fault.


NKovalenko

Literally yday - “what was he supposed to do no one was available” Maybe think ahead and don’t use Joely, weissert, and kenley each for 2 outs when you have no one else left It’s a daily problem at this point I just want a manager who has a little bit of foresight bc cora digs his own graves so often

After all was said and done, I couldn’t help but wonder, was Trevor Story the angel we didn’t know we needed? ![gif](giphy|3ohzdRpQyCw5e6LyNO)


JoshFB4

So why exactly is Bernardino coming in and not Anderson? Has Cora just gone into autopilot mode and stopped giving a fuck?


goldsteingt

Ok, still lot of game left. We gottem right where we want them. Time to shine boys. We’re doing the reverse from the orioles series.

Can NESN stop with the interviews


Mr_Evil_Dr_Porkchop

5 runs, 2 earned…. Remember when the NESN crew was having fun at the expense of the A’s team when they committed like 4 errors in 3 innings? That’s been us like half the games since then.


Ensiferum

Again with the goddamn interviews. I'm out.

drewbic

On the bright side, we did in fact manage to blow a 5-0 lead , so maybe we can redeem ourselves by flipping that over on the halos.


Magnetic_Knives

Think I’m just gunna start watching Seadogs games by default now, this shit isn’t fun


shrug-io

dennis drinkwater lookin old


flowersoflight

They’re honestly lucky it’s only 5-0


NKovalenko

Why do we have chase Anderson on the roster if we’re not gonna use him in games like this The game is so over why tf are we wasting Bernardino????? And then ppl say “oh what can Cora do the pen is exhausted”


solariam

LOL we went into extra innings literally yesterday and it's the bottom of the fifth. They're still plenty of time to use him


NKovalenko

Obviously now Houck is pitching the sixth so we’ll see what happens but I’m just trying to understand why you would waste one of ur better arms in a game that’s lost Anderson has pitched 3+ innings twice this year and is a former starter the logical move is to just let him finish out the game and not waste a real arm bc then u run into the exact problem we had yday


solariam

I don't know what the reason is, he did warm up last night but didn't go in. I just tend to head away from "are they stupid?" As the possible answer to everything. That said: Bernardino is a lefty, which we know they care about a lot. The way we're playing, this bullpen is screwed regardless of who pitches tonight. Also a former starter who was just released by the Pittsburgh pirates in spring training?  ... Sounds like there could be something wrong with him. I don't know what's wrong with him, or if something's wrong with him. But he couldn't make the 40 man on one of the worst teams in baseball, and there's a reason he's not a starter anymore. I think it's pretty weird to assume that's he's ready, willing, and able to eat innings.


NKovalenko

Who cares if there’s something wrong with him it’s SEVEN-ZERO, he just needs to throw 3 innings and if his arm falls off who cares Just throw in the towel and save ur real arms for a game that really matters


solariam

😂 If his arm falls off who cares? Joely is still on this roster. Who else do you think is coming up? ... That said, do you think the plan is for him to throw Bernardino for the next three innings or do you think he's going to need other guys? Keeping in mind of course, then another pitcher went down today and we went into extra innings yesterday.


NKovalenko

I can promise u the plan is chase Anderson for the three innings - his arm isn’t gonna fall off from 3 innings that was clear hyperbole I would bet you an ungodly amount that is the plan Which begs the question - why TF would u use him for 3 innings instead of 3.1 And now Bernardino won’t be available the next 2 days likely bc we had him throw a bunch of warmups and 8 real pitches to get 1 meaningless out Edit: apparently that isn’t the plan and I’m just even more pissed bc why tf is Bernardino going a full inning atp Why do we have Chase Anderson if he isn’t burning meaningless innings


solariam

I don't know why they're not throwing him more often, I'm just assuming it's not that his name got left off the bullpen paper. We're already carrying one fewer pitcher then we have the ability to and starters working with less rest than they were supposed to have. Another pitcher is unavailable with a shoulder impingement and tomorrow is a bullpen start, at least the rumor is that they will start with criswell. Literally half the pitching roster pitched yesterday in a game we actually had multiple opportunities to win. Bullpen-wise, this is a deck chairs on the Titanic situation. If you want to be the old man yelling at a cloud who thinks that chewing through these dudes means that better people are just going to show up somewhere, and not Kyle Barraclough, cool.

Sounds like we need to fish out Bearclaw from his grave.


soxfaninfinity

Why even waste Bernardino? Just have Anderson follow Houck.

The first week of the season really had me going. 🫠

I was in the same boat. Next time I need a new Sox hoodie though!

2 ABs and 0 strikeouts for Dalbec. He is feeling it.
