April 10, 20223 yr Usually Ron would get absolutely torched for putting up a game winner thread when the game is still going on, but at 10-1... we'll allow it.

April 10, 20223 yr Suffice to say the homestead with patchwork pitching will be a bigger challenge. Tampa is not impressed with the Sox. Go team.
April 10, 20223 yr Obviously, we can see what Tim Anderson does for this team. The same with Andrew Vaughn.
April 10, 20223 yr Still have way better players than about 28-29 other teams. Good recipe for success

April 10, 20223 yr Everyone except Reese got a hit but he was great defensively. Bullpen gets the player of the game for pitching 5 innings with no hits and a low pitch count. The rookie bullpen arms are the series MVP as well. Only one earned run in 5 and 2/3rds innings. 0 Hits, 3BB, and 6K
April 10, 20223 yr Really think AV is going to take a huge leap forward this year considering his path to the MLB roster

April 10, 20223 yr Suck it losers!!! And have now taken their first series of the year. Much better than last season's 1-3 start at Anaheim.

Since I haven't seen anything about Kopech yet, it was a very nice outing by him also.

The defense made all the plays they needed to and a few extra (Harrison spin-o-rama and McGuire scoop-n-gun), pitching kept the drama to a minimum, and all the bats were working with the hitting core doing damage. Love to see some quality baseball from our guys showing the Tigers what a real playoff roster looks like. But so I don't bring the baseball gods' wrath upon our team, the Tigers do have some solid pieces and we could have more competitive games with them later in the year.

It was almost like the Sox didn't miss Moncada, Pollock, Kelly and Leury with as much as everyone contributed. Also Timmy just being Timmy and in the lineup is the best.
April 10, 20223 yr It's only three games, but this Harrison guy looks like a pretty good baseball player. From the reaction on the board when he was picked up, I was thinking we'd fallen into a ditch somewhere. Today - good team win. The Sox are going to need this over the next 4-6 weeks - and then some.
April 10, 20223 yr Wonder how sad Tray and others are to see AV killing it. This man needs to play everyday!
