04. I was ten years old. Witnessed big Frank hit a bomb on tv into the night sky, with Hawk's iconic you can put it on the board, and fireworks exploding everywhere. I was hooked instantly. I remember lying in bed in 05, in the middle of summer praying for the Sox to win the world series lolol. They won it. I became cemented as a fan. And I've been duped ever since. I'm lucky that I'm young and have a shot at seeing a new regime with this team. I feel bad for some of you older guys that might not see this team under a different ownership group.
It seems like he keeps missing because it looks like he keeps trying to pull the ball. He rolls over on pitches constantly grounding out to short. That last slider he struck out on, don't get me wrong that was a really good pitch, but if Tim was right, he would have recognized that pitch and shot it the other way for a hit.
If they play today, and Minnesota loses, and the Sox win both games (highly unlikely, I know), so basically if the stars align...there is a possibility of the Sox just being 2.5 games back today. What.
Well if anything, maybe this means we don't have to go out and find a starting catcher after this season. Maybe Zavala can be the guy when Grandal leaves.
