OT: 2016 Red Sox/MLB Regular Season V - "And down the stretch they come!"

[Pia8988]

Mookie and Hanley tonight

 

[Ten Thousand Hours]

Reminiscent of the 5 game sweep they pulled on us in 2006.

Oh man uehara is lucky sanchez didn't hit that ball to the moon. Bad pitch.

Glorious four days at fenway.

Yes. They ended our season back then and we returned the favor this year. Feels great.

A 3 games cushion (+4 on TOR) going into Baltimore is HUGE. Now we can afford to only win one game, even though I have at least a split in mind.

At 9:30 pm on Thursday, I wonder what odds you could have gotten on a Red Sox sweep in this series?

 

[Johnnyduke]

Get me a split

Yankee Nation was out full force here for a week. Brand new hats and shirts like the front runners many of them are.

 

[CDJ]

Hanley is preposterous right now

 

[Fenway]

Magic Number for division is 11 and Cleveland and the Sawx are neck and neck for seeding. Texas looks like the #1 seed and the Indians currently lead the Sox by 1 game for #2.

But we'd still be in the playoffs right?

For me this goes back farther than 2006, it was small payback for the 1978 Boston Massacre. Nothing will ever really make up for that but this was a very nice bit of payback. Anytime you can kill a Yankee season is fun.

Fun to watch. Seems like a few have been torrid for stretches,but Hanley is white hot and he predicted it.

 

[Fenway]

Right now we would be in the ALDS vs Cleveland with home field in doubt. Texas would play the wild card survivor.

 

[Mr Cartmenez]

The way Mookie is hitting in Baltimore, the O's must be ready to throw a kings ransom at us in the off-season. Feels liek he was born to hit in Camden.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

Manny Machado is a world class ****** bag.

Legendary, maybe.

 

[Spoked-B]

Large Father strikes again!!!!

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

Hope Machado feels good about opening his mouth now

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

They need to convince him to come back for one more year...maybe they can get him one of those Rascal scooters so he doesn't have to be on his feet anymore than necessary.

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

The hell does Leon have a .335 average?

I feel like I've watched him bat 150 times this year and I've seen him get like two hits.

 

[Pia8988]

Porcello looking like he'll be able to go all 9 and be under 100 pitches

 

[EverettMike]

People say to me they say, "EverettMike, do you ever get tired of being right?"

And I say I say, "Nope. Just like I don't get tired of being handsome."

 

[UNB Bruins Fan]

What a performance by Porcello...89 pitches.

Nice to give the 'pen a break this time of year...and especially after how much they pitched against NY.

 

[PB37]

Porcello looks like Greg Maddux out there.

 

[Johnnyduke]

That was a biggie. And there is no question who the ace of this staff is.

Win one of the next three and i will be happy.
