Hard to explain, but at least he could tell it was gone off the bat

No he won’t.

it doesn’t matter if he’s the best pitcher in the league in the first half, no one will believe he can keep it up for 150 innings followed by a playoff run. He probably can’t.

Next year - certainly possible.

If the underlying metrics show its legit....people will pay.

I don’t know all of it but he yelled “see ya!” And it sounded pretty good

No ones gonna pay because if they let him go 6 innings pushing 90+ pitches every start he’s going to fall apart well before July.

Hell yeah!! Why he threw him a fastball I have no idea.

Last two breaking balls got hit very hard but foul.

I think I see why Orioles tried to trade Hall for Cease.  Velocity down 3.5 mph today as a starter.

Woof, that was a bad swing on a bad pitch

SHEWMAKE WITH HIS FIRST MAJOR LEAGUE HIT TIES THE GAME!!!

Given how the Sox are playing, it's very unlikely I'll be starting game threads all week.

Take it one game at a time .

SHEWDONG

Shoemake!

Boom

Good for him!

Shewmake!

Love seeing first hit homers

Looks like a pretty good crowd, is it a give away day?

Well DJ called out Fletcher's over aggressiveness there giving up the extra base. Might not have mattered after the Torkelson single to noddle arm Benintendi.

This game might be Ovah.

Not yet

Hopefully Shewmake plays well enough to save us from having to watch DeJong

As a lefty batter I expect Shewmake takes time away from Lopez more than DeJong.

Maldonado’s at bats resemble those of an NL pitcher a few years ago.
