Morales is looking great!!

 

Has he been playing any 1B?

[Spanky99]

Has he been playing any 1B?

 

Nope. Just Smoak/Rowdy and Pearce.

[Jonn]

Nope. Just Smoak/Rowdy and Pearce.

 

Pearce hasn't played the field yet. His first appearance is scheduled for the 19th. I think if they had any plans to play Morales at 1B they would have tried it already.

f*** I was sure he played the other day... or I just misheard Wilner. Atkins has said Morales will play 1st in interleague play, that's it.

Which makes you think getting him some reps during Spring makes sense. I guess will see.

[Spanky99]

Upton hit a dinger off Pomeranz... Pillar and Pearce lined out deep to the track, Smoak rolled over to 2nd base.

 

Biagini's on the bump... Panda beat out a DP...

Holy Christ Barker is a retard. He's literally talking about pitcher wins and Sandoval trying to "replace Big Papi's 30/100"

[Spanky99]

Alford triples... Barney cashes him in on a Sac fly. 2-0 Jays

 

Salty and Goins grounded out if you'd like to know.

Either he is, or is just dumbing down for the 'casuals'.

He did play 1st the other day.

[Spanky99]

Biagini's line thus far 2 IP 2 H 0 BB 2 K 0 ER... I would think he's done. Nothing hit hard aside from Pedroia's lead off base hit in the 1st.

 

Urena... K's off Joe Kelley.

 

Pillar... walks on 4 straight balls.

 

Upton Jr... hits into a DP

[Dr. Dinger]

Kevin Barker: "The better question is: Why wouldn't Kevin Pillar lead off?"

 

NOPE. I can't. Over to the Red Sox feed.

[Spanky99]

Yeah Barker's an idiot, lol.

 

Wilner- "Well, because historically he doesn't get on base enough"

 

Barker- "mouth breaths"

[Spanky99]

Biagini out for the 3rd... lead off double... Upton misses the ball? No video in the corner.

 

Pillar makes a nice grab gets it in quick, runners safe at 2nd. 1 Away.

 

Betts lines out to Alford in RF 2 away.

 

Ramirez walks... Sax R Drunk for Moreland.

Yeah lol he had no response to that. What a f***ing clown.

[Brownie19]

There's a 0% chance Barker is intelligent enough to do this. He's not Trump.

[Spanky99]

Moreland basehit... scores 2 runs charged to Biagini. Tie ballgame.

 

Biagini's final line 2 IP 3 H 1 BB 2 K 2 ER

 

Upton having big trouble out in LF... ended up catching a routine ball that got ugly. Likely swirling wind or sun?

Salty picks off Hernandez at 2nd... sweet!

That seems concerning for me because remember he dropped what looked to be an easy fly ball against Texas in the bottom of the 9th in Game 2, so today is not the first time he's made that mistake.

[Stangstag]

Lol

[Spanky99]

Alford lines out to 3rd on a nice play by the Panda.

 

Barney gets robbed of a well hit ball by Hernandez, 2 away.

 

Goins flysout to LF. The side is done.

[Spanky99]

Neat, Harold Ramirez' in the game, playing RF.

[Spanky99]
