Dog and bun. How dare he? That's the only way to tell the difference from a quality hotdog. Bar S vs. Nathans - there is a big difference. What could be worse is eating one without a bun.

Only comment would be to hit Moncada second instead, he is faster and less prone to the DP than Vaughn who has not been hitting well lately and more able to execute a hit and run. Vaughn is too slow, DP prone, and clogs up the bases when he gets on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaughn is too slow, DP prone, and clogs up the bases when he gets on. Neither one provides what use to be the traditional role of a 2 hitter. The slow tired legs guy vs. the king of called 3rd strikes. If Robert gets on he is probably discouraged from stealing a base. I guess station to station baseball improves a teams health.

hi8is Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I heard some sort of announcement and then the crowd clapped… so uh… maybe we’ll get another update soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShoeLessRob Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Having Vaughn and Sheets in the same OF is a disgrace to the ghost of Shoeless Joe Jackson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to me it looked like Francona was really advocating to not play the game when they all came out with the umps 15 mins ago. No one has done anything to the track since I turned on the stream.... Where the hell is the grounds crew?? Complete bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's really fair is a forfeit, but I get that MLB isn't gonna do that so at the very least they should make the game up in Chicago during their next series.

Don't forget they made the Sox reschedule a game already where just their coaches tested positive for covid.

Seriously a major league field can't be playable 3 hours after rain?. They should force them to play all their potential playoff games at their opponents' park until the situation is fixed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
