wow, Brendan Donovan with the defense! And Masyn Winn with the not throwing the ball 200 mph there
millville meltdown
7:14
what if he took his pitching glove into the batters box, caught the ball, and then chucked it over the short porch. would that count
Colin Holderman

Welcome Ben, nice to have you aboard. My 76th season as a Red Sox fan off to a great start in typical baseball fashion. In all of ST Wilyer Abreu got exactly one hit so he goes 3 for 3 with 2 HR's including the game winning 3-run shot in the 9th.  John Sterling coined the phrase that defines the game and I won't say it again but to say that I am excited about the 2025 season falls far short of the reality.

It's so good to have baseball back, I completely agree. Great to have you here, and looking forward to a great season

Any thoughts on Tyler O'Neill's Opening Day homer streak, now at six?
Ben Clemens

Tremendous, baseball is more fun when weird stuff like that happens

Tarik Skubal standing at the bag, waiting for Keith to run over there, and then giving him a butt pat was awesome
they have a little working out who stands on the bag to do still
How Keith fares at first is going to be very interesting
millville meltdown
7:25
bryce harper did it so surely keith will be ok right??? it's not like harper's a surefire hofer or anything..
Ben Clemens
7:25
Haha yeah, for Keith the worry is that he doesn't hit enough, at least for me
but the fielding part is hard too
man Tork cleanup is some vote of confidence
millville meltdown
7:26
how do you gain weight during a season? it seems impossible given the demands. more offdays?
Davy Andrews
7:26
I feel confident that I could find a way.
Ben Clemens
7:27
Manuel Margot batting fifth is crazy too!
it's all working
Brian
7:30
scott the second with the second best catch of the day
Do EV's on foul balls get counted?
Ben Clemens
7:30
they do! they're kind of a pain to look through
Oaktown Blues
7:31
Ben, you going to any Sacramento A's games this year?
Ben Clemens
7:31
