Man, oh man, 3 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: it feels good to hear that finally, and it finally 4 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: feels good. But a happy face on the thumbnail. We 5 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 1: had five straight games with my sad face on the thumbnail. 6 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: We finally got a happy one on there. Great home 7 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,239 Speaker 1: opener for today. You know, going into the game, you know, 8 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,200 Speaker 1: pre game, it was cloudy out there, things are looking 9 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 1: a little a little murky. You're thinking, oh man, you're 10 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: gonna rain a little bit here today. But all of 11 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: a sudden, the clouds went away right after the pregame ceremony. 12 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,599 Speaker 1: Here comes the sun. Ended up being a beautiful day 13 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: in Boston, and a beautiful day for a home opener. 14 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,480 Speaker 1: A nice win. Want to know at home. You maybe 15 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: two and five on the record on the season so far, 16 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: but hey, you got the first win at home. You 17 00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: gotta love that. Could you imagine if they lost here today, 18 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: o Lee Cow, people would have been uh oh, that 19 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't have been a pretty sight on social media. It 20 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: would not have been looking good. So good for the 21 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:11,119 Speaker 1: boys to pick up a big win here today, and yeah, 22 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: to me, that was a big win. First game at home, 23 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: off to a bad start. You need to get yourself 24 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: back on the right track, and they did that here today. 25 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,279 Speaker 1: For the most part, everything just looks solid here today. 26 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: Sonny Gray way better this time around than his first 27 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: start in Cincinnati. He looked a lot more comfortable here today. 28 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 1: Solid six innings for him. Did have a tough fifth inning, 29 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: you know, said he had the bad error there in 30 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: center field, but overall he looked a lot more comfortable 31 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 1: here today. Great outing for him and the offense, you know, 32 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: coming up and time coming up with the timely hits, 33 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: coming up with the big homers. Wilson trere So. This 34 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: first home run in a Red Sox uniform, Marcelo Meyer 35 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: going deep off of a lefty. Gotta love that. Gotta 36 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 1: love that. Caleb Durbin. How about Caleb Durbin finally waking 37 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: up here today. Good gracious at the double play in 38 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: his first a b You were hearing the boo birds 39 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: all over Boston after that double play, man, And then 40 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: he came back up later on, drove in the run, 41 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: solid base hit up the middle. That's what you want 42 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 1: from Caleb Durbin. We're not asking for, you know, thirty 43 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: forty home runs from the guy. We're just asking for 44 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: a guy to get the bat on the ball, do 45 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of damage, do your thing. And he 46 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: looked good there today. That was a huge weight lifted off, 47 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: lifted off of his shoulders. Good for him. Quiet days 48 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: overall for Roman Anthony Trevor Story at the top of 49 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: the lineup, had a couple of strikeouts between the both 50 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: of them, but you had Jared Durram with a double 51 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,679 Speaker 1: here today. Just a good day for the offense overall. 52 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: Good day for Sonny Gray and her Roldest Chabmin picking 53 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: up the save number three hundred and sixty nine in 54 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: his career. He's now eleventh all time in saves, past 55 00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: Jonathan papabhn Here today, great home opener, great home opener. 56 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: Finally in a good mood. Feels good to being a 57 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: good mood. Unfortunately, johann O Viedo not in a great mood, 58 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: or not as good of a mood as he could 59 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: have been going to the il. Got something going on 60 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: with the elbow. He's gonna be getting it checked out. 61 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: Hopefully that doesn't turn into anything. Obviously, Oviedo one of 62 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: the bigger moves of the Red Sox offseason. Didn't look 63 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: great against the Astros his last time out. Looked bumpy 64 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: in his last spring start as well. You did notice 65 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: the vlo hadn't been looking amazing over the last couple 66 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: of outings for him, So not surprised to see some 67 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: sort of, you know, something going on with the elbow. 68 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: Hopefully it's nothing that costs him a lot of time, 69 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: so we'll see what happens there. Zach Kelly Uberstein getting 70 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: called back up here. Wit Lockey went on the attorney leave, 71 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: So that's pretty much yet for the opening statement here today. 72 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: Just overall a good day. Hey, you gotta love that man. 73 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: You just gotta love seeing the crowd feeling good, people 74 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: on their feet at the end of the game. It 75 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: wasn't feeling very good there the first six games, but hey, 76 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: they showed up today. They got a good w against 77 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: Michael King. You know, Michael King went right, went healthy. 78 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: He is one of the better pictures in the game. 79 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: Good to see them wake up here today for the 80 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: home opener.

As of late, man, 83 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: we've gotten like almost two angured new subscribers over the 84 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 1: past week or so. So thank you to all the 85 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: new subs. Thank you for everyone that keeps on coming 86 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: back here to check out the post game coverage. But 87 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: let's get to it here, shall we. Let's get to 88 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,039 Speaker 1: it here, Let's get to the scoring. Let's get to 89 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: the scoring and taking a look at the win probability 90 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: chart here, as you can see, it was mostly in 91 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: the Red Sox favor here today. It did dip a 92 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:55,239 Speaker 1: little bit for the Padres at one point, but overall 93 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: for the Red Sox. They had control for most of 94 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: the game. Here in the second inning, Yeah, it took 95 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: him a little bit to get going there, but Wilson 96 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: had the walk, confidently winning an ABS challenge. That man 97 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: walked defiantly down the first base line. Gotta love that. 98 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: But then Caleb Durbin with a double play. That's when 99 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: the Boo Birds showed up. So Caleb Durbin's day did 100 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 1: not get off to a good start. Maybe he just 101 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: needed to hear those booze to rev him up a 102 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: little bit. Third inning, though, Marcella Meyer with a double 103 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 1: Seti comes up big with the soft liner there that 104 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: makes it one nothing. But what I loved about this 105 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: not the not the hit necessarily it was a soft 106 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: liner out to center field for Seti. But Marcelo Meyer, 107 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: what a great read off the bat. Wow, Like it 108 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: was a soft liner. I mean to me, that could 109 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: go either way. You know, Jackson Merrill, who knows, maybe 110 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: he ends up coming up with it. But Meyer, he 111 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 1: took a look at it. He was like, oh yeah, 112 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: that one's dropping, and then he just came around very confidently, 113 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: scored easily there. Marcel pla Meyer very underrated in my 114 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 1: opinion when it comes to his baseball IQ. Very smart 115 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 1: player out there. You see it not just there, but 116 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: also you know with the glove, he's just very good 117 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: out there. We'll get to Marcello here in just a second. 118 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: But then fourth inning Durham of the double first extra 119 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: base hit of twenty twenty six, Wilson William coming up 120 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: with the k's, but here comes Caleb Durban, like I said, 121 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: finally lifting that weight off of his shoulder. Hurt some 122 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 1: cheers at that point, and for good reason, because that 123 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: base hit made it to nothing. Just good for Caleb 124 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: durbin Man obviously, you know, hearing a lot of seeing 125 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,479 Speaker 1: a lot of reactions to his slow start to the year, 126 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: you know, because when it comes to Caleb Durban, right, 127 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: you also got to think he was the guy that 128 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: replaces Bregman. And you know, I don't think a lot 129 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: of of course, yeah, people, you know, not very happy 130 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: with his start, but I think a lot of that 131 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: is also reflected on the front offices inability to get 132 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: the job, to get the deal done with Bregman there. 133 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: So I think it's there's energy being spent towards Durban 134 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: slow star, but also the front office there too. So 135 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: just overall them not you know, not great feelings towards 136 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 1: the slow start, but good to see him come up 137 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 1: with the hit there, good solid hit too, I strong 138 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: hit right off the bat that made it to nothing. 139 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: Fifth inning, Roman had the base hit. Did anyone notice 140 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: how the they turned the microphones off Dave O'Brien and Lumerloney. 141 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: Did anyone notice that? I was like thinking, is there 142 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: are there technical difficulties going on? Or did they purposely 143 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: mute the mics for Roman's ab I don't know, was 144 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: that confirmed anywhere? If they did that, purposely not bad, 145 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: you know, because it was kind of nice hearing that crowd, right, 146 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: I love the family, just hearing the sounds of Fenway. 147 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: It's always nice. But Roman while the MIC's were re muted, 148 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: the base hit Trevor story though with the double play. 149 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: But I want to give a shout out to Jake 150 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: Cronimworth on the poddres. What a fantastic play that guy made. 151 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: Holy cow, what a great play he made. Made the dive, 152 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: got up, stepped on second and then threw it to first. 153 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 1: Amazing double play from Jake Cronimworth. There but six inning. 154 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: This is when the Red Sox decided to wake up 155 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: here and say, all right, this this is our game 156 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: here today. Wilson Trere's first home run in a Red 157 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: Sox uniform hungured eight miles an hour off the bat. 158 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: They made a three to two seeing that pole air 159 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: percentage right before your own eyes, ladies and gentlemen, gotta 160 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: love that, obviously, that that would have been a home 161 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: run pretty much anywhere, right, But that's what you'll love 162 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: to see Fmway Park. And that was a big reason 163 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: why they brought him in because you know, hey, there's 164 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: gonna be some dingers for him down the road as 165 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: we move forward through this season, or hey, maybe he's 166 00:08:55,160 --> 00:09:00,679 Speaker 1: not gonna absolutely just just mash into one, right, you know, 167 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: we see the ability that he has to simply pull 168 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: the ball. All right. Good to see that made a 169 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 1: three to two. Will you're with the base hit and 170 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: the Marcello Meyer first home run of the year that 171 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: made it five to two, and that was off the lefty. 172 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 1: You gotta love that, right. You know, we've been talking 173 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: so much about you know, Cora, He's talked about Meyer, 174 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: you know, more in like a platoon kind of a 175 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: situation going up against lefties. You know, probably gonna see 176 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 1: the bats like ikf Angel Monasterio. But I'm glad he 177 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: got a chance here against the lefty. And it's moments 178 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 1: like this that is going to earn that trust from 179 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: Alex Cora. Off to a good start against lefties this year. 180 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 1: Marcelo Meyer looking good. Good good game from Marcelo Meyer 181 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 1: here today. Gotta love that good day for the offense. 182 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: But you know what, this good day wouldn't have happened 183 00:09:55,440 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: without the adding from Sonny Gray. Sonny Gray very good 184 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,319 Speaker 1: here today, and there was a difference when it came 185 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: to the pitch mix. Last start, leading with the sinker 186 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,719 Speaker 1: fourteen percent when it came to the cutters, mixed in 187 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: some curves and some sweepers as well, But today he 188 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: leaned more into the cutter. He threw the cutter twenty 189 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: nine percent of the time. He threw strikes with the sinker. 190 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: Good mix there that he looked very comfortable out there today. 191 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: He just looked like a guy that was in rhythm. 192 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: I was saying that last time, you know, just watching 193 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: him looking at the mechanics, everything looks smooth. It just 194 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 1: I don't know, it looked like the field just wasn't 195 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: really fully there. Ball coming out of his hand. He 196 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: just looked like he was just in a good groove 197 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: here today looked good, got them to chase of the 198 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: sweepers outside the zone. Didn't rack up the strikeouts here today, 199 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: but you know, got a few along the way. But 200 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: what I loved about Gray's performance as well here today 201 00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: is he just got ahead and counts right. Remember that 202 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: last start wasn't really getting ahead. You know, he's falling behind. 203 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: He's thrown a lot of pitches in that first inning, 204 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: but he just got ahead here today. Strike one, I 205 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: think was the best pitch for Sonny Gray on the day. 206 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: He also got a lot of weak contact. In his 207 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 1: last start against the Reds, they averaged ninety six and 208 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 1: a half miles an hour when it came to the 209 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 1: exit v Lough Today it was eighty six and a 210 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: half miles an hour. So that's a big difference right there. 211 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: Throwing strikes, getting mcchase a little bit weak contact kept 212 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: him off balance. He was in a groove. Good day 213 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: for Sonny Gray and getting back to that last start 214 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: in Cincinnati, right he threw what was it thirty five? 215 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: How many pitches did he throw in the first inning? 216 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: It was definitely more than thirty can't fully remember, but 217 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: this time had an eight pitch first inning, got off 218 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: to the good start, only allowed one hit through four. 219 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: He ran out of trouble in the fifth inning, though 220 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: it didn't get a little help from Seti out in 221 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 1: center field. The sun definitely got in the guy's eyes. 222 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: It looked like he was just about to make a 223 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 1: routine play and then all of a sudden, the ball 224 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: drops and then set He's just thinking, well, what the 225 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: heck just happened here? But that didn't help. That's when 226 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: Gray started to get hit a little bit. Uh, Andrew 227 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 1: Harr he got to third on that one, and then 228 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: Gavin Sheets with the base hit that made it two 229 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: to one, and then camp be Sona with a double 230 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,200 Speaker 1: off the Monster that tied it up in two. All 231 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you're looking at you know, Gray cruising 232 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: through five innings, and then it was just two to 233 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 1: two out of nowhere. It's like, what the heck just happened? 234 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: He bounced back in the sixth inning though a one 235 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: two three six final line on the day, six innings, 236 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: four hits, two earned three k's. Just a solid debut 237 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,320 Speaker 1: at Famway Park for Sonny Gray. Gotta love that bullpen 238 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: came in here today. They did their job. I'm not 239 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest. When there was a tie game 240 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: there and uh, and I saw Greg Weiser warming up, 241 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: I'm thinking, oh no, please, don't put don't put Greg 242 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: Weiser into this game. Was anyone else thinking that when 243 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: he was warming up when they had the camera pan 244 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: over to him and the bullpen, I'm sorry the guy 245 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: worries me, Okay, but hey, he looked all right here today. 246 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: I picked up a strikeout. Slaton came in after that. 247 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:11,959 Speaker 1: Those guys held it down. Chatman getting his three hundred 248 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: and sixty nine save again eleventh all time when it 249 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: comes to saves. Just a great day. There was a 250 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 1: little trouble there, a little little murkiness at one point, 251 00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: but in the end, good game for the Red Sox. 252 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: Here today, what have we got going on here? In 253 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:34,319 Speaker 1: the chat from Summer Cook, did anyone else tense up 254 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 1: whenever the ball went towards Story, I'm gonna be Oh 255 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: is that a couple of moments as well where I 256 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: was like, oh, no, Story, please, come on, come on, buddy, 257 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: let's go a routine play there we go, Okay, all right, 258 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: We're good, We're good. It's funny how all of us 259 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 1: are Red Sox fans. We say we were thinking on 260 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: the same wavelength. A little bit. Hopefully Story is good 261 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: to go, moving forward a little bit here else we 262 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: got here? What else we got? Uh, Julio Sanchez? So 263 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: many positives here? Today? We got limu Emu in the 264 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: chat saying you'll never outshine the Yankees ever, limu Emu, 265 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: can we just have our day? It's a home opener. 266 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: Let us just let us enjoy our day. For crying 267 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: out loud, Emu what else we got? Justin Salaton enjoy 268 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: socks are back. Never been better. It was a good 269 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: game for the Red Sox today. I like that. Just 270 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: a good, solid game, a couple of big homers. Crowd 271 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: is feeling good. Dylan, what's going on? My friend Roman 272 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: has been fine. I'm not worried about it at all. 273 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: Not worried about him at all. He's just not a 274 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: true leadoff hitter. You're taking valuable RBIs away from him 275 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: for a few extra abs. Just beyond dumb baseball philosophy. 276 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: There has been some chatter about the lineup I've been 277 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:01,840 Speaker 1: seeing over the last couple of days. It's gonna again. 278 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: I've talked about this, right. I am wondering if you're gonna. 279 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 1: I was saying this in the first series, in the 280 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: first couple of games. I was saying, I wonder if 281 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: maybe you start to see some different lineups. Cora did 282 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: talk about it here today. I believe he was asked, 283 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: is Will why Will You're is not batting third? So 284 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: I think he I don't remember the answer exactly that 285 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: he gave, but he said he just likes Will You're 286 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: batting fifth, and likes him batting behind Wilson, I don't know. 287 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: You do wonder because here's the thing. Roman is really 288 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: good leading off, But in my opinion, Roman was very 289 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:49,160 Speaker 1: good leading off in the lineup last year. Right, in 290 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: my personal opinion, I think it really Yes, you could 291 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: be a great leadoff hitter, but I think it also 292 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: depends on who's around you, right, what is the lineup 293 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: as a whole. In the twenty twenty five line at 294 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: Roman Anthony was an amazing lead off hitter because he 295 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: had someone like Bregman behind him. But this time around, 296 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: when you got Trevor Story, where there's a lot more 297 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: swing and miss, you know he's more prone to the strikeouts. 298 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 1: Is Roman in the best position that he could be in? 299 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 1: So you do wonder, could Roman be a better fit 300 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: maybe in the two spot right, and maybe you could 301 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: put you could put I don't know Wilson at You 302 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: can have Wilson bat third, and then will You're bat fourth? 303 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: But then you got to ask yourself, well, who leads 304 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: off at that point? Do you want Duran? And then 305 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 1: Roman back to back and then again with Duran he 306 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: showed you when he's got very good protection like we 307 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: saw last year, when batting third, you know, and when 308 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: you have someone good in front of him, you know, 309 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 1: maybe that could end up being, you know, something good. Well, 310 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: in this case, you wouldn't have anyone in front of him. 311 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: But you see what I mean, right, Maybe maybe Duran 312 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: could be could get another change, says the leadoff hitter 313 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: in this lineup. Maybe I don't know, you get a 314 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,440 Speaker 1: little worried there because he was very inconsistent last year 315 00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 1: when it comes to getting on base. I don't know, 316 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: it's a little iffy. That's the one thing with Roman. 317 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: If you take him out of the leadoff spot, well, 318 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: who are you gonna put there? Could that be Duran? 319 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, when you look at Duran's skill set, 320 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: with the speed that he has, dynamic player, you look 321 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: at those attributes and think, okay, well Duran, Yeah, I 322 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: mean it looks like a really good leadoff hitter, and 323 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: he's shown in the past he could be a very 324 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 1: good leadoff hitter. But you look at last year up 325 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 1: and down. Maybe you try again, you know, we'll see, 326 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 1: we'll see. But definitely something to pay attention to moving forward, 327 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 1: I think is what is this lineup going to look like? 328 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: Say in May, what is it going to look like? 329 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: In June. I wonder if we still see the same 330 00:17:54,640 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: lineup that we've been seeing up to this point. What 331 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 1: else we got going on in the chat Justin Slayton Enjoyer, 332 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: Caleb Durbin low key might win a Gold Glove. You know, 333 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: here's the thing, and I listen, I'm not trying to 334 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 1: sound like, oh, I told you so, because that's not 335 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Obviously, Durbin got off to the bad start. 336 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: One thing I did say a couple of games ago, 337 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 1: was it last game? A couple of games ago, can't 338 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 1: fully remember, but Durbin was hitting the ball hard. It 339 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 1: was just hitting a lot of grounders. And you saw 340 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: today he's able to get that swing a little bit 341 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: more level and you saw that hard contact today. So 342 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: hopefully we're starting to see the step in the right 343 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: direction for more consistency from Durbin at the plate. But 344 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: getting back to what you said Justin Slayton Enjoyer, Yeah, 345 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 1: of course, defensively, he's been getting the job done there. 346 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 1: You gotta love that. We'll see gay arch Ten Duran 347 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,880 Speaker 1: fine leading off. I don't mind Duran as the leadoff hitter, 348 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: it's more so is it the most opt I'm willing 349 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: to take a shot at it again. I'm not I'm 350 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: not saying it's a bad idea. I'd be willing to 351 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 1: see what that looks like again. So we'll see if 352 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,800 Speaker 1: Cora ends up going that route. But you see, you know, 353 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:17,199 Speaker 1: quiet games from Roman and story here today, is the 354 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 1: top of the lineup as efficient as it could be? 355 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: Is it as optimal as it could be? We'll see. Yeah, Gabe, 356 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 1: you make a good point. Duran walk single turns into 357 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: a running runner and scoring position with a steal. Yeah, No, yeah, Gabe, 358 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: absolutely making a good point. Again. I'm willing to see. 359 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 1: I'm willing to see him in that spot again. I'd 360 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: like to, you know, if they end up going that route, 361 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 1: I'd be okay with it. So we'll see. Yeah with Gab, Yeah, Gabe, 362 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: when you say here, Roman doesn't steal, I mean to me, 363 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: what's more important is simply getting on base. If Roman 364 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: was so slow out of the if he just had 365 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: like just forty grade speed, well then yeah, you know, 366 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 1: maybe you could look at them, but he's not like 367 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,199 Speaker 1: a slow guy. So I think it's more getting on 368 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 1: base that's the most important thing. Gotta get on base first, 369 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,120 Speaker 1: So but Austin in the chat would like to see 370 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:14,679 Speaker 1: more aggressiveness on the basis I think once they get 371 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: their bearing set a little bit, once they kind of 372 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: just gets you comfortable and they get into a bit 373 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: of a groove, then we can start seeing I think, 374 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: a bit more aggressiveness. We'll see justin' s, Layton and 375 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: joy or. I think the fact that we were able 376 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 1: to score five runs without Roman doing much is an 377 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: extremely positive side. Yeah, of course, I mean you got 378 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: to give a lot of credit to like that mid 379 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 1: to bottom of the order here today they stepped up, obviously, 380 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 1: Wilson in the four spots today, stepping up Willier getting 381 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 1: the job done, all right. Limu Emu, I don't know, 382 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: limu Emu. In the chat, I don't know. We're putting 383 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: you in time out, my friend, time out for mister 384 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 1: limu Emu. I don't know what's going on. I don't know, man, Limu. 385 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 1: We're here, we're just here for a happy postgame show 386 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 1: and you're coming in. You're just putting a damper on it. Goodness, gracious, 387 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 1: time out for limu Emu. Uh, what do we got? 388 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 1: Gay barks? I think you don't picture around Roman if 389 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 1: Wilson or Braves behind him. I mean, yeah, that's the uh, 390 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: that's the that's the thinking right. Protection I think is 391 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 1: so underrated when it comes to a lot. If you 392 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: can look at the stats, you know, you can look 393 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 1: at all of those kind of things, right, but it's 394 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,360 Speaker 1: you also got to think, all right, who's around you? 395 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: You know, we'll see how it goes. But overall, ladies 396 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: and gentlemen, good day, good day. For today we can 397 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: finally have a happy sleep. I'll be honest, Like, going 398 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,240 Speaker 1: into the off day yesterday, I don't know, I just 399 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:53,879 Speaker 1: had this uh, this like sense of just anxiety a 400 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: little bit. I was like, oh, like, man, need to 401 00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 1: feel good about something here, you know. So hopefully we 402 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 1: start trending in the right direction here. Obviously a bad start, 403 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 1: but a good step in the right direction here today 404 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,120 Speaker 1: taking a look at game two, what do we got here? 405 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 1: For Game two? We got Connolly Early back on the 406 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: mound going up against Randy Vasquez, who did look good 407 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: in his debut, mister Vasquez, but Connelly Early also looked good. 408 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: Remember Connolly Early. He was right in line for the 409 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: win there until Greg Weisser gave up the home run. 410 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 1: So good to see Connelly Early getting another start. I'll 411 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 1: be honest, if he keeps pitching this way, I mean, 412 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,439 Speaker 1: I don't see how like. I mean, well, obviously with 413 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 1: Oviedo going to the IL now, I mean I think 414 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: the path for Early to be staying in the rotation 415 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: all year is a fully paved for him here. Very 416 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: excited to see Early see what he can do against 417 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: this tough Padres lineup. I mean, listen, hey, the Padres 418 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 1: that came up short here today, but they've got some 419 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: good bats in this lineup. Man so Also good to 420 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: see Xander back at Fenway Park. I believe that was 421 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: the second time coming back to Femway since signing with 422 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: the po Andres. Always good to see Xander so cool 423 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: genuine Phil Red Sox win onto the Celtics.

I think they're looking pretty good, right, yeah, 426 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 1: I think so. I don't know. I have not been 427 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,399 Speaker 1: keeping track.
