    James Paxton has pitched 20.1 innings in 2020, 1.1 in 2021 and 0 in 2022. This is a very winnable game.

    Paxton has been out of action since undergoing TJ. I think I’ve seen something about the recovery not going too well. Prior, he was a swing and miss guy when he was with the Yankees.

    Nado with the early two run tater’s nice. Now the old guy works through 2 with 12 pitches. So far, so good.

    That Arenado HR was a thing of beauty…! No better sight in baseball than a 4-bagger over the Green Monster!

    I’m not too sure I’d be too crazy about a raptor of that size using my shoulder for a landing strip…Haha!

    I don’t like to complain about umpires, but that should have been a called 3rd strike to Turner.

    The Turner non-strike resulted in two runs. Now b-2-b HRs for the Sox. But Fenway is a park where you can put up a lot of runs especially with a right handed lineup. We’ll see.

    Yeah, the HPU punched out Edman on a pitch in the same location the very next inning. Redbirds making some noise in the 6th.

    Finally able to tune in, looks like a pretty good game.

    Sure has been by both guys. Gonna need some more good work with this sliver of a 1 run lead.

    Surprised he didn’t go get Cabrera after the lead-off BB.

    Edman with the misplay. Should have had a play at HP.

    Jesus, once its 2-0 w/2 on, don’t challenge their best hitter, just hold up 4 fingers.
    Now an Edman error…..

    No E-4, but definitely a misplay on the failure to handle it cleanly.
