I thought this dude threw like 96+
had no feel for his fastball all night.

good job though hanging around and figuring out the breaking stuff was what to use.

Boston shots in that TikTok ad. the first shot along the highway across the rail tracks to some houses and a brick building is the Mass Pike in either Brighton or Newton. near my old neighborhood.  Final shot is of Boston Harbor from maybe East Boston looking out towards the Zakim bridge by the Garden.

CJ Abrams baserunning has been concerning. Baserunning staff for this franchise should be canned. I'm pretty sure we were deadlast in baserunning WAR last season.

Not that well struck, Bob.  I think tomorrow Garrett should give Call some rest.

Not relevant to this specific game, but I wish they still used the red curly W hats.

I was missing the fastball.  Yes, the curve and split were excellent, but the 100 an 99 against Belllinger made me feel good.

Watching Harvey with a lead in the 8th is fun.
