Capn12 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 And, by way of comparison, here is Madrigal's May so far (I didn't realize it was THIS bad). .196 / .196 / .217 / .413 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTB Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 It’s too bad the game gets in the way of Stone and Benetti’s comedy routine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) Benetti is almost bearable unless the Sox are going bad...then his act gets really grating. Oh, great, more jokes about Stoney’s dinosaur status and not paying for anything when they go out. Edited May 16, 2021 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) Looks like the Twins are waking up just in time...but thankfully no Berrios again this next series.

JTB Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 I believe it was the first game at Cincinnati that I went to the ice cream to get the offense moving. No runs this inning and I’m going back to the freezer for ice cream. Whatever the team needs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
