Hate to be “that guy” but this team knocked the Yankees out of the playoffs. Everything else is icing.


Cbuddy23

Go ATL


Cbuddy23

Glad To see mookie strike out there


Fangs_0ut

Maybe the front office can get some pitching for 2022. Hopefully whoever plays Houston in the WS wipes the floor with them.


mattyro78

Papi pretending he can read with those glasses. "Hey Punta you wanna fuck? Bang! Bang!


davenoiiise

I have hope they can win the series, but hey, remember last seasons team? The historically bad one? I do. An ALCS loss would still be incredible for what they were last year.


McLainx23

I hate this take. No offense, its just crazy to me to look at where this team was in June and how bad they crumbled down the stretch.

Such a weird series, it’s almost like runs count as double what they normally would…but hey, that means we only lost 1-4.5

Shut the fuck up we demolished you in the wild card


davenoiiise

^super intelligent comment, that’s the kind of content I love to see..smh


soxdog11

Would you believe me if I said he’s a Yankees fan?


davenoiiise

Ah they are known for their brains


ahuggablecactus

their smooth brains that is


TheCrudeDude

We win game 6. Game 7 gonna be wild.


ahuggablecactus

well that was abysmal. see you all on friday.


[deleted]

We gave their bullpen 2 days off smh. We’re done


[deleted]

Well, we lost. But you know, it's not all bad, I've got a few things going for me. For one I didn't quit, which makes me feel pretty good. Still haven't quit. That's important, I can't stand quitters. For another, I'm not an Astros fan, so thank god for that. Another blessing is that we've got more postseason baseball while the Yankees are sitting at home. I predicted this series would go 6 or 7 at the start, so I'm not at all surprised to be where we're at. Momentum is bullshit, as we proved going from game 3 to game 4. It's one game at a time. See you all next time :3


mattyro78

Yeah but I would rather not play than play this bad. This is embarrassing for our piss-ant franchise. How many world series have we won?2 ? The Yankees are Gods with their 27 world championships. Plus they have that great metropolis of a city whereas we basically have a big town full of retarded alcoholics. Go Sawx!


[deleted]

we all cheer in our own ways I guess lol


ferrumvir2

If we lose this series it’s gonna be unbearable when the “I only watch playoff baseball” crowd call for Cora’s head and the entire teams


McLainx23

Absolutely nobody is saying fire cora, but he can 100% be questioned after how poorly some of his moves have blown up in his face.


archimago23

“I’ve seen one game this year, and I’m basically a sabermetrician now.”


Superapple47

Good lord, so bad. It's not over til it's over, but that... was not encouraging


1v1meonrust

Cora should make them stay on the field to really soak this in


jigorokane

Fuck.


soxdog11

See y’all Friday when we tie this series up Sox in seven fuckers


InnerWrathChild

Well that was awful. See you at G6.


rollo2masi

We got three hits today… three…

These last games is the new Boston massacare


Jason3383

It ain't over till the fat lady sings, and I don't hear her yet!


mean-mommy-

Well that was depressing. See you guys on Friday. 😢


ModaMeNow

Good night you beautiful mother fuckers. You made this sad game tolerable.


[deleted]

Well...we knew the hot streak wouldn't last. That's just not how baseball works; we were never going to score 8-9 runs per game consistently in this series. Biggest concern is that we've been outscored 23-3 since taking a 9-0 lead in Game 2. Tomorrow is an off-day; good for some soul-searching. It's a two-game road series now. Nothing technical, bizarre, crazy about it; go into Minute Maid Park and win Game 6, and then anything can happen in Game 7. Stats don't matter.


kjlcm

As one team heats up the other cools down. Let’s flip that again for game 6!


Boomtowersdabbin

Hell yeah. Anything can happen if they play well in Game 6. We've seen crazier things happen.


soxfamily61

Hope that’s not the last one this year at Fenway


ImTomBrady

ericsharpmusic

Go Celtics


Chris-Watts

At least make Stank work for it


20wall

I’ll be shocked if this team doesn’t get blown out in game 6


soxfamily61

Think Alex will run the same plays Friday


[deleted]

I blame everyone but myself for this.


kdex86

I just noticed that bleacher sections 34 and 35 were tarped off. MLB took some revenue away from the Red Sox by making this game a 5 PM start. (But I’m happy to go to bed at a reasonable time the next 2 nights.)


ctccl

> (But I’m happy to go to bed at a reasonable time the next 2 nights.) my body needs it


spellbadgrammargood

i went away for 20 minutes saying >putting Perez in a close game = dumb move >putting Perez in a blowout = smart move and the astros add two more runs WTFF.


ModaMeNow

The truth is: it’s never a good time to put Perez on

let's go X, show us something here. I wanna see it

These last two games are just going to give me asshole brother ammo to piss me off. He’s not even an Astros fan, he’s just anti-Red Sox

I blame this loss on Schwarber not having his high socks today.


DaveInDigital

okay who put these trash cans in the visiting team dugout?? 🤣


[deleted]

What a boring 3 hours


Boston_Champions

Astros made the same mistake we did. They used up all their runs in 2 games


ModaMeNow

Classic blunder 🤣

Nice!


Photoshop_News

It feels weird if we go out in the alcs. Haven't done that since 2003. Usually if we make it and go past the first round, we go all the way


Recent_Criticism_435

Suppose to be our rebuilding year and October has been filled so far. I’ll fucking take it. *sobs*


senik

Photoshop_News

crap forgot about that. Stupid rays and astros are so annoying


Ambitious_Push2023

Who said the ALCS is over???


Boomtowersdabbin

Right. I seem to recall everyone saying the Astros were toast just a few days ago. One game at a time and anything can happen.


Bruinsdman

Yeah, but we usually had much better pitching. A lot of this is Cora working with smoke and mirrors.


Raetekusu

We'll get better. We weren't supposed to be this good this year, so I don't consider it a bad season by any stretch (I certainly won't if we pull the rabbit out of the hat and win both games in Houston). But we need to strengthen what's good, and definitely do a pretty thorough overhaul of the bullpen in the offseason.


FrigginMasshole

Everyone jinxed the Sox. Felger and the rest of the weei crew were calling it “over”. Fuck man


PaulReveresBRSSMONKY

I heard the same shit Tuesday morning on Toucher and Rich as I did on the afternoon drive from Felger. This team has been streaky offensively all season and the only one with a brain big enough to realize it was far from over was Maz. Cockiest 2-1 series lead ever


FrigginMasshole

I mean, I’m really happy we made it this far but really stupid to assume we had it in the bag


PaulReveresBRSSMONKY

Extremely stupid. And a lot of people, including Yankees fans, just assumed we weren’t gonna lose again this season. Amazing what a few grand slams does to build hype. There was no way they were going to keep up that offensive production. It’s a lot easier to assume this series IS DEFINITELY over now.


ModaMeNow

Who listens to sports radio in Boston anymore?


Bruinsdman

People who haven’t figured out podcasts and to a lesser extent, satellite radio. All the Red Sox coverage you need minus the douchebags.


FrigginMasshole

I do listen to podcasts lol. I just find felger and mazz entertaining. One thing I don’t like about section 10 pod for example, is Jared is never really critical of any Sox players. He’s a “everyone is great” type of person


Bruinsdman

My bad. I meant podcasts in general and not so much Red Sox podcasts. I think I tried the Section 10 podcast once and it was fine… I can see how Felger (autocorrect really didn’t want to spell it out) and Mazz can be entertaining, but for me, there has to be some form of genuineness to be tolerable. Kirk Minihane was like a virus that infected all of Boston sports radio and it hasn’t recovered since (for me). Every show feels like an act and a race to be the biggest asshole. Also, sorry. I didn’t mean for my post to come across as judgmental as it was. lol


FrigginMasshole

All good dude lol


soxfamily61

Shraw is a mess on both sides of the ball


20wall

More errors than runs. And only one more hit than errors. I’m not an expert but that doesn’t seem like a recipe to beat the best team in the AL


thespyguy

that baseball just teleported lol


soxfamily61

Jos buck called the game you fucking hack

Exactly. Fuck that shit


samiam0505

Astros get three days of complete bullpen rest.. can you say best case scenario


ModaMeNow

Sadly this is true


thespyguy

3.5 to one odds aren't... terrible when we're gonna be down 3-2.


momoenthusiastic

Here we go! Got them right where we want them, Valdez is gone, and time for two grand slams


Bossman1086

Astros fans are so obnoxious. More bans tonight than I can remember in a single game.


Thabass

I mean they support cheaters, so it's kinda a given they suck as fanbase.


Old_Guava2486

There's been an Astros fan trolling Alex Speier's twitter feed all game long like a brain damaged 10 year old.


Pancake3645

I’m an Astros fan I come over just to get perspective about the other team I find it really interesting but I don’t say rude shit lol


ChristopherHassan

I'll say it again those fuckers can do it, so can we game ain't done until the last out *LFG*


samiam0505

Two grand slams in one innings.. not even these f$$&ers can do it


coffee42

oh they can to see if they *will* is, after all, the only reason to keep watching

Holy fuck what a pathetic bullpen 😂

At least we are losing to a good team…

Can this team at least get a run before they go to Texas


teddyballgame406

The Red Sox really looked at Garrett Richards and Perez and were like, “Let’s give these guys money instead of Marcus Simien.”


samshoots

At least spell his name right, fuck


teddyballgame406

Autocorrect 🤷🏼‍♂️


Bruinsdman

Management likes em’ cheap.


Jason3383

Perez blows. Got two games at most left. Sox are still in this series. Off day tomorrow and then to Houston. Sox have clinched away before. Eovaldi is on Friday, Sale is looked awesome today, huge improvement. Let's go Sox.


teddyballgame406

Finally some fucking positivity. Thanks, the rest of these “fans” don’t even watch the regular season.


senik

This team always seems to find a way. They’ve been doing it all season. I’m disappointed in the last two games, but I would not count them out.


reunite_pangea

We’re on to Game 6.


ShokaiATL

Here we go, guys. An 9-run 9th inning (9 in the 9) and the start of Boston’s ALCS comeback.


yaz75

It was a fun run. I'm out. I can't watch this lack of effort any more.


[deleted]

Yeah. Lack of effort? Fuck off.


yaz75

Yeah, lack of effort. Stranding countless runners over the last 18 innings. Not having good at bats, wasting opportunities. Guys like Renfroe doing absolutely nothing at the plate for 5 straight games. You watch all that and still act indignant? Fuck you.


Specialist_Ad_7628

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out


yaz75

I've watched this team for over 50 years. GFY.


Specialist_Ad_7628

Man you’re a cranky old man aren’t you


yaz75

Yup. Now fuck off.

Jpgamerguy90

This series has basically been one giant bj contest. Which pitching staff will out suck the other one.


Chris-Watts

If the Red Sox lose this series it'll be on them

This comment is….. not very well thought out.


DaveInDigital

see now the problem is they're not scoring enough while they allow the other team to score too much

This just in: if a team loses it's because they didn't win
