    Most Memorable Sox Game You've Attended?

    in Pale Hose Talk

    Posted

    Buehrles next game after his perfecto in Minnesota. He started the game with 5 2/3 perfect innings. Really thought he was gonna go back-to-back for a little bit. Also was at the game he hit a homer in Milwaukee (2009 I think?). That was pretty cool.

    The blackout game in 2008 was awesome, I also remember the game before being electric. Was a makeup game with detroit we had to win to force 163. Alexei hit a slam.

    Also obligatory, game 2 of the world series. Sat 5 rows behind PK's slam.

    Living 5 minutes from Globe Life Park in Arlington, I have seen quite a bit of Nomar Mazara. Not only against our Sox but against other teams. This guy has loads of potential. The past few years, he was a huge part of their offense at a very very young age. The majority of his at bats he was batting 3rd and 4th in their lineup as a 21-23 year old. Our ballpark will play similar if not better and although he is not the greatest defensively, he's not the worst of the available options and his arm is strong. This was the guy I wanted at the beginning of the offseason ahead of Ozuna and Castellanos, Puig, and whoever else. Dropping to 6th and 7th in our lineup- I'm not a scout but I believe he will flourish in a Sox uniform.

     

    I was at the game in Texas last year when he hit that 505ft bomb. (side note I also sat next to and met Scotty Pods that day.) There were definitely better RF options but I like Mazaras young age, potential upside, and power in our park. Hoping also that Menechino or our scouts (lol) picked up something they can work with him on.
