The good news is the Mariners have a record on par with the Sox.

The bad news is this kid Kirby is a #1 pick for them and has two decent starts - 10 IP, 8Ks, 7 hits and a walk for 1 ER. Sox always seem to struggle against young pitchers they haven't seen before. Let's hope they can get some early runs for Hill.

The Kirby kid pitched at Elon Univ in N.C.

Good news I read, Wacha is being activated and is scheduled to pitch Friday night.

MongoLikeSox · May 19, 2022, 08:26:48 PM

I didn't even know Elon had a BB program.

Anyhow, anyone know what the Mariners' pitching change was disallowed?

MongoLikeSox · May 19, 2022, 08:30:17 PM

And they just answered it. I know they've let that one fly i the past. New rule? That used to be a strategy.

Mariners giving away runs now.

Like I said Sawamura looks he said hold my beer. I swear he pitched in the old Park league for Cozy Cafe. He should have stayed and finished his beer.

markj · May 19, 2022, 09:20:35 PM

Sawamura left a mess. Now Strahm's getting ready to walk in runs just like Seattle did. Four straight balls. Can no one in the BP throw a strike?

elktonnick · May 19, 2022, 09:21:34 PM

Cora is emptying the entire bar.

markj · May 19, 2022, 09:24:15 PM

Strahm finally settled down and got them out of the inning.

markj · May 19, 2022, 09:35:52 PM

Story again!! Whatever he ate for lunch today he needs to have every day.

markj · May 19, 2022, 09:52:04 PM

Sox with a win despite giving up 6 runs. Story gets the game ball and all the credit here. Hell of a night.

Trevor was certainly the STORY of the night!
WOW!
3 home runs - 7 RBIs AND scored a run - He was part of 8 runs!
WOW!

Down 4 runs in the second inning, then STORY exploded with offense.

elktonnick · May 19, 2022, 10:02:20 PM

Story seems to be settling in now. Great night

Most of the hitters came out swinging tonight and it was a joy to watch, but we have relievers like Brasier, Sawamura, Barnes and Robles that need to find employment elsewhere because they will ruin any comeback this team might make. But 12 runs and 16 hits sure felt good. Now keep it up and let's win this series.
