He has no one to blame but himself.

Can’t deny the defensive upgrade at SS and 1B when Cabrera and Mientkiewicz came aboard. And Tito certainly wasn’t going to ignore the late game defensive replacement at 1B like John McNamara did with Dave Stapleton. So, ballsy move by Theo, but he was right.

True. And we got a ring out of it. But it still hurts

 

[EverettMike]

Here we go.

f*** me. f***. Me

 

[EverettMike]

BASEBALL!!!!

f***ING BASEBALL!!!!!!!

What an epic final two plays.

Can't believe Boone used Nestor in this spot

Grady Little territory

 

[CharasLazyWrister]

Sorry to make the obvious upon obvious comparison, but it's game 1 and that ball landed pretty much right where Gibson's HR landed in that stadium 36 years ago.

 

[KrugAvoy]

Hahaha Yankees lose. Get ******!

Can't believe Boone used Nestor in this spot

Grady Little territory

It's fine! He hadn't pitched in over a month, so his arm was fresh. Boone should use him in more high leverage spots.

I'm the most casual of casual baseball fans at this point in life.

Speaking from no point of knowledge at all, and well-aware there is logic behind the phenomenon, it is absolutely wild how much managers f*** around with pitchers nowadays. It's like the risk of bringing in a cold pitcher is universally discarded in favor of predetermined gameplan.

Also, Dave Roberts is enjoying this postgame interview more than any manager I've ever seen. It's like Fox hired him to be a personality for the show.

I miss playing meaningful baseball in October.

As a Red Sox fan who lives 15 minutes from Fenway Park I can't even imagine living in a big market city that loves its baseball team. Imagine what it would be like to sign the best players in the game and watching them play deep into October?

But alas....

That was some Grady Little level decision making from Boone.

- First he brings in a guy who hasn't thrown in a month in the 10th
- Then with 2 outs and 1st and 3rd he walks the bases loaded to face Freeman. You don't need to set up double plays everywhere with 2 outs.
- Say he wants the lefty lefty match up, he leaves his lights out lefty reliever in the pen instead of having him face Freeman.

 

[Mione134]

I need John Henry to go.

Just go. You don't care about the Red Sox anymore. Embarrassing watching us be trash while other teams flourish.

 

[BMC]

Suck it, Yankees.

 

[Mione134]

Suck it, Yankees.

Always and Forever!!!

 

[Mr Cartmenez]

Great game 1.

Quite honestly, it's become almost impossible for me to root against the Dodgers or Yankees for a little while. I actually appreciate these two heavyweights going at each other. Two franchises that care about winning and spending relentlessly. I wish the same could be said about Boston, but they mailed it in at some point after 2018.

Please tell me you guys saw Verdugo during Ice Cube

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

Anyone else not giving a shit with this?

 

[Mione134]

Anyone else not giving a shit with this?

As long as the Yankees lose, I'm good.

We could of had Teoscar but once again, Sox cheap

 

[MillerTime29Bombs]

Ohta with the bad wing.

 

[Mione134]

Hurt his shoulder. Hopefully it's nothing.
