TNK,
I notice you are playing Nunez. Did you resemble the real life team and start the season with Pedroia on the DL?

I did put Pedroia on DL

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #7 of Season

Tampa Bay Rays (3-3) @ Boston Red Sox (4-2)
Pitching Matchup - Blake Snell vs David Price

The Red Sox are back at Fenway for their home opener as they host the Rays for a 3 game series after the teams split a 4 game series to open the season. Tampa would jump out to a 1-0 lead with a run in the 3rd inning and they added 2 more runs in the top of the 4th on a RBI double from Robertson and a RBI ground out from Refsnyder giving the Rays a 3-0 lead. Blake Snell through 4 innings but the Red Sox were threatening in the bottom of the 5th when singles by Bogaerts and Nunez gave Boston runners at the corners with 1 out for Vazquez. Snell would get out of the inning on a great defensive play as Vazquez ripped a grounder down the 3rd base line but Matt Duffy made a fantastic diving stop on his backhand and hopped to his feet quickly to start a 5-4-3 double play to end the inning and keep it a 3-0 game. Tampa had runners at the corners with 2 outs in the top of the 6th but Price froze Refsnyder with a back door cutter that came back over the corner for a big strikeout to end the inning. Mookie Betts and Andrew Benintendi hit back to back singles with 1 out in the bottom of the 6th to put two men on for the Red Sox with the heart of the order coming up. Snell was pitching carefully to Hanley Ramirez as he fell behind in the count and Ramirez made him pay as he squared up a fastball over the plate and drove it into the monster seats in LF for a 3-run HR and just like that we had ourselves a tie game 3-3. Price would get the 1st out in the 7th and then got Kiermaier to hit a grounder to 1st base but Ramirez bobbled the ball and couldn't make the flip to Price in time and was charged with an error as Kiermaier reached and the Rays would have speed ont he bases. Matt Barnes would come on to replace Price and get Gomez to fly out for the 2nd out. CJ Cron was up next and Kiermaier was running on the 1st pitch but was gunned down on a perfect throw from Vazquez to end the inning and keep the game tied 3-3. Yonny Chirinos replaced Snell on the mound for Tampa to begin the bottom of the 7th and hit Devers with an inside fastball to put the lead off man on for Boston. Chirinos would strikeout Nunez and Vazquez before a single by Bradley put two men on base for Boston with Mookie Betts coming up with a chance to give his team the lead. Chirinos would escape the jam as Betts flew out to Gomez to end the inning and send the game to the 8th inning tied 3-3. The Rays had two men on with two outs in the top of the 8th for Robertson who was 2 for 3 in the game but Barnes would get out of the inning as Robertson flew out to Betts in RF to end the threat. Andrew Benintendi led off the bottom of the 8th and hit a high fly ball to RF that was hooking towards the pole as Gomez raced towards the foul line and the ball hooked just inside the Pesky pole out of the reach of Gomez for Benintendi's first HR of the season to give the Red Sox a 4-3 lead. Boston closer Craig Kimbrel came on to pitch the 9th looking to close it out and would get Refsnyder to fly out and Duffy to ground out as the Rays were down to their final out. Kevin Kiermaier battled hard and worked it to a full count after fouling off several pitches with two strikes but Kimbrel would finally get him on the 10th pitch of the at bat as he blew a 99 mph fastball past Kiermaier for the K to end the game and record his 2nd save of the season as the Red Sox win 4-3

* The Red Sox earn a thrilling 4-3 come from behind victory in their home opener at Fenway

* Andrew Benintendi hit his 1st HR of the season and it was a big one as he hit the go ahead HR down the RF line in the bottom of the 8th to snap a 3-3 tie. Benintendi was 2 for 4 in the game

* David Price settled down after allowing 3 early runs and battled his way through 6+ innings on the mound

* Hanley Ramirez is on fire as he homered for the 3rd straight game and is 5 for 14 in those 3 games with 4 HR and 9 RBI

* Jackie Bradley has a 6 game hit streak

* The Red Sox and Rays will be off tomorrow before resuming this 3 game series with Rick Porcello set to face Andrew Kittredge

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #8 of Season

Tampa Bay Rays (3-4) @ Boston Red Sox (5-2)
Pitching Matchup - Andrew Kittredge vs Rick Porcello

The game was scoreless until the bottom of the 3rd when Mookie Betts lined a solo HR over the green monster for his 2nd HR of the year to give Boston a 1-0 lead. The score remained 1-0 through 5 innings as Kittredge and Porcello had only allow 2 hits apiece. Boston had runners at the corners with two outs for Nunez in the bottom of the 6th and he would deliver a RBI single as he lined a pitch from Chirinos into CF to make it 2-0. Chirinos would get Bradley to line out to end the inning and send the game to the 7th with Boston on top by a 2-0 score. Carlos Gomez reached to begin the 7th when Bogaerts pulled Ramirez off the bag with an errant throw to first base, but Porcello would get Brad Miller to hit into a 4-6-3 double play for two big outs and then get Duffy to ground out as Porcello was through 7 shutout innings on the mound. The Red Sox got a lead off walk by Leon and back to back singles from Betts and Benintendi would load the bases for the red hot Hanley Ramirez with nobody out in the bottom of the 7th as they threaten to blow this game open. Chirinos got a huge K of Ramirez before Martinez hit a sac fly to RF scoring Leon to make it 3-0. Chirinos did a great job of limiting the damage as he fanned Bogaerts to escape the inning with only one run crossing the plate and we would go to the 8th inning with the Red Sox leading 3-0. Joey Wendle singled to lead off the top of the 8th and moved into scoring position when Porcello bounced a pitch that got away from Leon. Wilson Ramos delivered the Rays first run of the game with a RBI single to CF making it 3-1 with no outs. Mallex Smith followed with a single and that would be all for Porcello as he would exit and Carson Smith would come on with two men on and nobody out in a suddenly tense situation. Hechavarria bounced into a fielders choice as he beat out a double play to set up runners on the corners with 1 out. Denard Span was up next and had a great battle with Smith who came after Span with his 93 mph power sinker and on the 8th pitch of the at bat he got Span to hit the ball hard on the ground to Ramirez at 1st base who fired to Bogaerts at 2nd to start a huge inning ending 3-6-3 double play as the Rays could not capitalize and Smith gets out of the inning with the 3-1 lead intact. Boston stranded runners at the corners in the bottom of the 8th as Alvarado got Betts to ground out to Hechavarria to end the threat and we would go to the 9th inning with the Red Sox leading 3-1 with Craig Kimbrel on his way in to try and close it out. Kimbrel blew away Kiermaier for the 1st out and got squeezed on two pitches that looked like strike 3 to Gomez who would wind up punching a single to CF to give the Rays a base runner and bring the tying run to the plate in Brad Miller. Kimbrel came right back to strike out Miller on a 98 mph fastball and Matt Duffy would fly out to Betts in RF for the final out as Kimbrel gets his 3rd save and the Red Sox win 3-1.

* The Red Sox beat the Rays 3-1 and have now won their last 5 games to improve to 6-2 on the season

* Rick Porcello earned his first win of the season with a very strong performance as he held the Rays to 1 run on 6 hits in 7+ innings of work

* Carson Smith and Craig Kimbrel slammed the door in the 8th and 9th innings out of the Boston pen

* The Red Sox will get a boost to the starting rotation tomorrow as Eduardo Rodriguez returns to the team he was a little behind the rest of the team and was not ready for opening day following off-season knee surgery.

* The Red Sox pitching staff is close to returning to full strength as Drew Pomeranz is on track to join the rotation next week after an injury in spring training caused him to miss some time

* The Red Sox will look to complete the 3 game sweep of the Rays tomorrow when Eduardo Rodriguez makes his season debut against Jacob Faria for Tampa Bay

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #9 of Season

Tampa Bay Rays (3-5) @ Boston Red Sox (6-2)
Pitching Matchup - Jacob Faria vs Eduardo Rodriguez

*NOTE* - Not going to post the long game recap / story for each game as it becomes a time killer to keep pausing and typing about what happens. I will continue to post the box scores and a brief recap of the game with notes

The Rays jumped out to a 7-0 lead powered by 4 home runs as Carlos Gomez went deep in the 4th inning before Rob Refsnyder and Matt Duffy went back to back in the 5th inning. Brad Miller added a two run blast in the 6th and Jacob Faria was dominating on the mound as he held the Red Sox to 3 hits and racked up 11 Ks through 8 shutout innings. Boston would break the shutout with two outs in the bottom of the 9th when Andrew Benintendi crushed a ball deep and over the head of Kiermaier into the triangle in CF for a RBI triple to make it 7-1. Austin Pruitt would come on to get the final out and the Rays win 7-1

* The Rays avoid the sweep and hand the Red Sox a 7-1 defeat as Tampa Bay got 4 home runs offensively and a gem from Jacob Faria on the mound

* The Red Sox 5 game winning streak is snapped in the loss

* Jacob Faria was one out away from a complete game shutout as he went 8.2 innings on the mound stiking out 12 in a tremendous performance from the young Rays starter

* Eduardo Rodriguez looked rusty in his 2018 debut coming back from off-season knee surgery. Rodriguez was pitching decent until things fell apart in the 4th & 5th innings as he lasted just 4.2 innings and allowed 3 home runs to take the loss

* Adeiny Hechavarria has hit safely in all 9 games for Tampa Bay this season and is hitting .433 through 9 games

* The Red Sox sent RP Marcus Walden down to AAA Pawtucket to clear a spot on the 25 man active roster for Rodriguez

* The Red Sox (6-3) will have an off day to regroup and get ready for their first meeting of the season with the Yankees (5-5) as New York comes to Fenway Park to begin a 3 game series and kick off the 2018 chapter of the rivalry. The Red Sox will be sending Chris Sale to the mound in the opener against Luis Severino for New York

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #10 of Season

New York Yankees (5-5) @ Boston Red Sox (6-3)
Pitching Matchup - Luis Severino vs Chris Sale

The Red Sox and Yankees renew their rivalry for the first time in 2018 and the game was scoreless after 4 innings as we had a good pitchers duel unfolding as Luis Severino and Chris Sale were both sharp early. Sale had retired the first 13 Yankees hitters of the game before New York would load the bases in the top of the 5th, but Sale would come right back with back to back strikeouts of Neil Walker and Brandon Drury to end the inning and keep the score 0-0. The Yankees would open the scoring in the top of the 6th as they had runners at the corners with 1 out for Gary Sanchez who hit a chopper to Devers at 3rd who tried to start the double play but Sanchez would just beat the throw from Nunez allowing Gardner to score and make it 1-0. Andrew Benintendi doubled with 1 out for Boston in the bottom of the 6th making him 3 for 3 as he had all 3 Boston hits to this point in the game. Severino would get Ramirez to pop up and JD Martinez to ground out as he escapes the threat and the game would go to the 7th inning with New York leading 1-0. Things fell apart for Sale in the top of the 7th as Brandon Drury punched a RBI single into LF to make it 2-0. Brett Gardner beat out what would have been an inning ending double play to keep the inning alive for New York and Aaron Judge made it count as Sale tried to sneak a fastball in and Judge turned on it and lofted a high fly ball into the monster seats in the LF corner for a 3-run HR to open up a 5-0 lead for the Yankees. Joe Kelly replaced Sale on the mound and Ginacarlo Stanton welcomed him with a 437 foot bomb to CF to make it 6-0. New York would add more runs late on their way to a 10-0 rout

* The Yankees explode in the late innings and hand the Red Sox a 10-0 butt whooping (I have never been so angry after a game in my life)

* Chris Sale was nearly unhittable early but fell apart late in this game and took the loss to fall to 1-1

* Luis Severino was terrific for New York as he pitched 7 shutout inning on his way to the win to improve to 1-1 on the seaosn

* The Red Sox offense was pathetic for the second straight game and I'm on the verge of smashing a controller

* Giancarlo Stanton was 3 for 5 with 2 HR & 3 RBI and Aaron Judge went 2 for 5 with a HR & 3 RBI to lead the Yankees offense

* Andrew benintendi was 3 for 4 with 2 singles and a double for Boston.....everyone else sucked

* The Red Sox and Yankees will play the second game of this 3 game series tomorrow with Masahiro Tanaka set to face David Price on the mound

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #11 of Season

New York Yankees (6-5) @ Boston Red Sox (6-4)
Pitching Matchup - Mashiro Tanaka vs David Price

The Yankees scored a run on a RBI single by Didi Gregorius in the top of the 1st to take a quick 1-0 lead. The Red Sox offense came in to this game in a terrible funk and Masahiro Tanaka was making quick work of them early as he retired the first 11 batters of the game for Boston before Xander Bogaerts drew a walk to give the Sox their first base runner of the game. JD Martinez was up next and Tanaka tried to sneak a fastball by him on the outer half but Martinez squared it up and drove it into the CF bleachers for a 2-run HR to give the Red Sox a 2-1 lead. New York had two on with two outs in the top of the 5th for Stanton and Price would make a great pitch with a full count for a huge K as he ran a fastball up and in on the hands that Stanton could not get the bat on and the Yankees would strand a pair as the score remained 2-1. The Yankees were threatening again in the top of the 6th with two on & two outs for Brandon Drury and Price would jam him with a cutter to get Drury to ground into a 5-4-3 double play to end the inning and keep it a 2-1 ball game. Tanaka would work out of trouble in the bottom of the 6th as he would get Devers to ground out with two men on to end the inning and we would go to the 7th inning with Boston leading 2-1. The Yankees had Romine at 1st base with 1 out in the top of the 7th and Price would buckle down and make a great pitch again as he got Brett Gardner to hit the ball sharp to Bogaerts at SS who flipped to Nunez who made a great turn at the bag and his throw just beat the speedy Gardner for another inning ending double play and the score remained 2-1. Boston skipper Alex Cora made a ballsy move as he stuck with Price who came out to pitch the top of the 8th with Judge, Stanton and Gregorius and Price rewarded his manager as he got Judge to ground out and struck out Stanton swinging at a high fastball off the plate for the first two outs. Price would finish his night by getting Gregorius to pop out to Bogaerts to end the inning and Price walked off to a standing ovation as the lefty came up huge with 8 terrific innings and the Red Sox would take their 2-1 lead into the bottom of the 8th as they looked to add some insurance. Mookie Betts led off the bottom of the 8th with a rocket off the green monster for a wall ball double off Tommy Kahnle. Benintendi would ground out to second base and move Betts up 90 feet to 3rd with Xander Bogaerts coming up with 1 out. Bogaerts would get the RBI on a great piece of heating as he took a 99 mph fastball from Kahnle and punched a soft liner over the leaping Greg Bird for a RBI single into RF to give Boston a huge insurance run and a 3-1 lead. Craig Kimbrel would come on to pitch the 9th for Boston and would retire Hicks, Bird and Drury in order to close it out as the Red Sox get a much needed 3-1 victory

* The Red Sox bounce back after losing their last two games and get a fantastic performance from David Price on the mound and a JD Martinez home run in the 4th inning seemed to wake up the bats on the way to a 3-1 win

* David Price played the role of "stopper" and delivered a stellar performance as he held the Yankees to 1 run on 7 hits with 7 Ks in 8 innings of work to earn his first win of the season

* Masahiro Tanaka pitched well and took the tough luck loss for New York

* JD Martinez has been slumping but he delivered the big hit of the game in the 4th inning with the Red Sox trailing 1-0 when he stayed on an outside fastball from Tanaka and hammered a 2-run HR to give the Red Sox the lead

* Craig Kimbrel made quick work of the Yankees in the 9th inning for his 4th save in as many attempts this season

* The Red Sox and Yankees will play the rubber match of this 3 game series tomorrow night with CC Sabathia scheduled for New York and Rick Porcello set to take the mound for Boston

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #12 of Season

New York Yankees (6-6) @ Boston Red Sox (7-4)
Pitching Matchup - CC Sabathia vs Rick Porcello

The Red Sox and Yankees wrap up this 3 game series after splitting the first two games and Boston would open the scoring in the bottom of the 2nd when Xander Bogaerts led off with a double and Rafael Devers would jump all over a first pitch fastball from Sabathia and crushed a 2-run HR to RF over the Yankee bullpen to give the Sox a 2-0 lead. The Yankees got a run back in the top of the 4th when Aaron Judge doubled to lead off the inning, moved up to 3rd on a fly out by Stanton and then scored on a wild pitch when Porcello bounced a curveball in the dirt that got away from Vazquez making it 2-1. Boston would get the run right back in the bottom of the 4th when Sabathia left a changeup elevated with a full count to Eduardo Nunez who hammered it to CF for a 437 foot solo HR to make it a 3-1 game. The Yankees had a man in scoring position for Judge with 2 outs in the top of the 5th and Porcello made a nice pitch low and away to get a groundball to Nunez to end the inning and maintain the 3-1 lead for Boston. The Yankees thought they tied the game in the top of the 6th when Greg Bird hit a fly ball down the RF line that was initially ruled a 2-run HR, but the umpires would go to video review which showed that the ball just hooked foul and Porcello would get through the inning unscathed as the score remained 3-1. The Red Sox added to their lead in the bottom of the 6th when Bogaerts scored from first as Devers picked up his 3rd RBI of the night with a rocket in the gap for a double to push the lead to 4-1. Gardner and Judge would reach to begin the top of the 8th for the Yankees and Porcello would exit with Giancarlo Stanton coming to the plate as Matt Barnes would come on from the pen in a tough spot with the Sox leading 4-1 and the Yankees threatening. Stanton singled to CF to pickup a RBI and cut the lead to 4-2 and then Sanchez singled to LF loading the bases with nobody out. Greg Bird followed with a single to LF that scored two runs as the Yankees storm back to tie the game 4-4 and still have two men on with nobody out. Carson Smith came in to replace Barnes on the mound and Aaron Hicks would lay down a sac bunt but the Red Sox were able to get the out at second base setting up runners at the corners with 1 out. Smith would walk Neil Walker to load the bases and face Brandon Drury looking for a double play ball to try and get out of the inning. Drury hit a high chopper to Hanley Ramirez who came home with the ball but his throw pulled Vazquez off the plate as the go ahead run scores to give the Yankees a 5-4 lead. Smith would get a huge strikeout of Tyler Wade and then get Gardner to fly out to escape the inning with the Sox now trailing 5-4 after the Yankees batted around. David Robertson came on to pitch the bottom of the 8th for New York and issued a lead off walk to Bogaerts as the Sox had the tying run on base. Devers would hit a chopper to the 3rd base side of the mound that Robertson bobbled trying to make a bare handed play and was charged with an error as Boston suddenly had two on and nobody out. Eduardo Nunez would bounce into a fielders choice as he beat out the double play to set up runners at the corners with 1 out. Jackie Bradley was up next and he came through with a deep fly to RF to pickup the RBI as Bogaerts would tag and score to tie the game 5-5. Mitch Moreland pinch hit for Vazquez and drew a 9 pitch walk to bring up Mookie Betts who would ground out as Robertson escapes the jam and we would go to the 9th tied 5-5 with Judge, Stanton, Sanchez due up for New York. Smith would K Aaron Judge to begin the 9th before Stanton singled, but Smith would make some tough pitches and get Sanchez to pop out for the 2nd out and then strike out Greg Bird. Tommy Kahnle retired the side in order in the bottom of the 9th to send the game to extra innings. The Yankees would take the lead in the top of the 12th when Heath Hembree hung a slider with two strikes to Gary Sanchez who crushed a solo HR to CF to give New York a 6-5 lead. Aaron Hicks added a solo HR to make it 7-5 also on a slider. Aroldis Chapman would retire the side in order in the bottom of the 12th for his 3rd save of the season as the Yankees win a 7-5 thriller in 12 innings

* The Yankees take the finale of this 3 game series in a classic Red Sox vs Yankees battle that saw these two bitter rivals go to extra innings with the Yankees winning 7-5 in 12 innings

* The Red Sox drop 2 out of 3 to the Yankees and have now lost 3 of their last 4 games

* This was an outstanding game and the most intense and exciting game I have played in a long time

* Rafael Devers continues to hit the ball well early in the season for Boston as he went 2 for 5 with a double, HR & 3 RBI as the 21 year old is hitting .326 with 3 HR early in the season

* Carson Smith was outstanding out of the pen for Boston as he came on in the 8th and minimized the damage after Rick Porcello and Matt Barnes coughed up the lead and then Smith picked up 2 Ks in a dominant 9th inning where the Yankees had Judge, Stanton, Sanchez and Bird come to the plate.

* The Red Sox are 3-3 on this 10 game home stand and will wrap things up as they play host to the Baltimore Orioles for a 4 game series at Fenway Park. The Red Sox will send Eduardo Rodriguez to the mound for his 2nd start of the season against Chris Tillman for the Orioles in the opener

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

TNK, do you move the left stick when you hit?
I know you are using zone and I am giving zone a try too.
I just haven't been able to hit many HRS using zone.
Any suggestions to help hit more HRS?
I am getting plenty of hits by the way.

I can't speak for TNK but as a zone hitter for years I can say the number one key to hitting with zone is patience. And, look for your pitch to hit early in counts. When you get good pitches to hit, from my experience, home runs will come. But if you dont get deeper into counts, you're likely not going to get many good pitches to hit.

You may already be doing all of this, but I would take more strikes. Dont swing just because it's in the zone.

As for moving the stick, I personally dont move it much if at all when there are no strikes ( I do move it pre-pitch to where I want "my pitch" but I dont move it during the pitch. I'm looking for one pitch, one location. If I don't get it, i take it, even if it's a strike.)

With one strike my approach is similar to with no strikes, but I'm likely to move it some during the pitch. I might pick a half of the plate or top or bottom of the zone and look for a pitch on that half, only trying to move my pci in that area.

With 2 strikes i move the stick wherever I have to, and I look to try to take fastballs the other way. This allows me to not be out in front of offspeed pitches as much.

On 3-0 I dont swing unless it's one or two certain hitters in the right situations.

On 3-1 and 2-0 I basically want the pitch to be right dead in the middle of my (invisible) pci. Lay off the tempting junk that looks good. Let the pitcher work himself into trouble. Dont help him.

As a poker player, you win by folding. In zone hitting, you win by not swinging, so to speak.

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #13 of Season

Baltimore Orioles (6-7) @ Boston Red Sox (7-5)
Pitching Matchup - Chris Tillman vs Eduardo Rodriguez

The Red Sox jumped all over Chris Tillman in the bottom of the 1st inning with Mitch Moreland crushing a 3-run HR that cleared the bullpen in RF as Boston scored 4 runs in the inning to take an early 4-0 lead. The Orioles would start to chip away with 2 runs in the top of the 3rd and another run in the top of the 4th to cut the deficit to 4-3. Jackie Bradley led off the bottom of 4th by driving a fastball the opposite way over the green monster for a solo HR to make it 5-3 and Rafael Devers would wrap a towering fly ball around the RF foul pole in the bottom of the 5th for a 2-run HR as Boston would expand their lead to 7-3. Eduardo Rodriguez was making his 2nd start of the season and settled down nicely after the 3rd & 4th inning to pitch deep into the game and would exit after 6.2 innings as Joe Kelly would come on in relief to face Anthony Santander with a man on and two outs. Santander got a hold of a 99 mph fastball from Kelly and drove it high off the wall in LF for extra bases and the Tim Beckham would try to score all the way from first base but he was gunned down as Benintendi got the ball in to Bogaerts who made a perfect throw to nail Beckham on a very close play at the plate to end the inning and maintain a 7-3 lead for Boston. The Red Sox would pad their lead in the bottom of the 7th on RBI doubles from JD Martinez and Rafael Devers to make it 9-3. Baltimore threatened with two men on and two outs in the top of the 8th and Chris Davis at the plate and Davis would foul off a couple high 90's fastballs to stay alive and work a full count before Joe Kelly froze him with a nasty back door slider to end the inning and keep it a 9-3 game. Mitch Moreland added 2 more RBI with a single to CF in the bottom of the 8th to make it 11-3 and Kelly would finish off the 9th as the Red Sox crush the Orioles 11-3

* The Red Sox offense pounded out 11 runs on 16 hits on their way to a 11-3 drubbing of the Orioles in the opener of this 4 game series at Fenway

* Eduardo Rodriguez was making his 2nd start after looking rusty in his first outing coming off the DL to start the season. Rodriguez was much sharper tonight as he gave the Red Sox 6.2 solid innings of work to earn his first win of the season to even his record at 1-1

* Mitch Moreland got the start at 1st base to give Hanley Ramirez a night off and Moreland had himself a night going 3 for 5 with a single, double, HR & 5 RBI

* Rafael Devers continues to swing the bat well early in the season as the young 3rd baseman went 2 for 4 with a double, HR & 3 RBI. Devers is hitting .340 with 4 HR and 10 RBI as the 21 year old is off to a great start to the season

* Chris Tillman took the loss to fall to 0-2 as the Baltimore starter got tagged for 7 runs on 10 hits in just 5 innings

* The teams will play game #2 of this 4 game set tomorrow with Hector Velazquez getting the start for Boston against Alex Cobb for Baltimore

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #14 of Season

Baltimore Orioles (6-8) @ Boston Red Sox (8-5)
Pitching Matchup - Alex Cobb vs Hector Velazquez

The game was scoreless through 4 innings as Hector Velazquez and Alex Cobb were both pitching well and keeping the opposing lineups off balance. The Orioles would open the scoring in the top of the 5th when the first two batters reached and Manny Machado turned on a fastball and crushed a 3-run bomb over everything in LF to make it 3-0. Things fell apart for Velazquez who ran out of gas and was replaced by Bobby Poyner with two outs. Poyner allowed a RBI double to Pedro Alvarez and Anthony Santander followed with a single to score two more runs as the Orioles suddenly had a 6-0 lead. The Red Sox loaded the bases with 1 out in the bottom of the 8th against Alex Cobb who had been outstanding and Cobb would escape the jam as he would get benintendi to ground into a double play to end the inning and keep it a 6-0 game. Cobb would finish off the complete game shutout as the Orioles went on to win 6-0

* The Red Sox fall 6-0 as the Orioles even this 4 game series at one game each. Baltimore scored all 6 of their runs in the 5th inning and Alex Cobb threw a gem on the mound.

* The Red Sox offense failed to score a run just one day after scoring 11 runs on 16 hits

* Alex Cobb hurled a complete game shutout striking out 12 for his first win in an Orioles uniform

* Manny machado was 1 for 5 with a 3-run HR to lead the Orioles offense

* The Red Sox sent relief pitcher Bobby Poyner down to AAA after the game and called up reliever Marcus Walden to get a fresh arm in the bullpen which has been over worked the past few games

* The Red Sox and Orioles will play the 3rd game of this series tomorrow with Boston sending their ace Chris Sale to the mound against Dylan Bundy for Baltimore

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #15 of Season

Baltimore Orioles (7-8) @ Boston Red Sox (8-6)
Pitching Matchup - Dylan Bundy vs Chris Sale

Chris Sale and Dylan Bundy went toe to toe on the mound with Boston taking a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the 3rd on a solo HR down the RF line by Rafael Devers. The score remained 1-0 through 6 innings as both Sale and Bundy were pitching great games. The Orioles would finally get to Sale in the top of the 7th as Chris Davis would single and then Danny Valencia turned on an inside fastball and launched a 2run HR into the monster seats to give Baltimore a 2-1 lead. Craig Gentry would double on a soft liner over Moreland at 1st base and come into score when Trey Mancini delivered a big two out RBI single on a grounder into RF as the Orioles put up 3 runs to take a 3-1 lead. Sale came back out for the 8th inning despite being over the 100 pitch mark and pitched a scoreless inning to keep it a 3-1 game. Mychal Givens retired the Sox in order in the bottom of the 8th to send the game to the 9th inning with Baltimore up 3-1. Marcus Walden pitched a scoreless top of the 9th and the Red Sox would come up in the bottom of the 9th trailing 3-1 with Orioles closer Brad Brach coming on. Brach would get Bogaerts to start the inning before Mitch Moreland took a ball off the monster for a double to bring the tying run to the plate for Boston with 1 out. Eduardo Nunez was next and lined a single to LF setting up runners at the corners for Jackie Bradley as Boston now had the tying run on base and potential winning run at the plate. Bradley made solid contact as he ripped a ball on the ground but Davis made a nice play at 1st base to start a 3-6-3 game ending double play as the Orioles hang on to win 3-1.

* The Orioles grind out a 3-1 victory and have now taken 2 out of 3 in this 4 game series with the teams set to play the final game of the series tomorrow on marathon Monday in Boston

* Chris Sale pitched great in this game but had one tough inning and it cost him as he took the loss to fall to 1-2 with a 4.40 ERA on the season. Sale has pitched excellent but seems to have that one inning that haunts him each game and has not exactly gotten great run support so far this season

* Rafael Devers continues his hot pace to begin the season as hit his 5th HR of the season

* Danny Valencia was 2 for 4 with a huge 2-run HR that got Baltimore on the board and gave them the lead in the 7th inning after Sale had mowed them down through 6 innings

* The Sox and Orioles will wrap up this 4 game series tomorrow with Boston looking to get a split of the series as they send Brian Johnson to the mound against Andrew Cashner for Baltimore in the finale

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #16 of Season

Baltimore Orioles (8-8) @ Boston Red Sox (8-7)
Pitching Matchup - Andrew Cashner vs Brian Johnson

Brian Johnson had control issues leading to a pair of walks and a bases loaded situation for the Orioles in the top of the 2nd and Caleb Joseph coming up. Johnson left a changeup elevated and Joseph would hit a high fly ball to LF that just cleared the green monster for a grand slam to give the O's a 4-0 lead. Jonathan Schoop hit a solo HR in the 3rd inning and Adam Jones would add a RBI single in the top of the 5th as the Orioles lead climbed to 6-0. The Red Sox bats got going in the bottom of the 5th as they Brock Holt, Jackie Bradley and JD martinez all had big hits to drive in runs and Boston would cut the deficit to 6-4. The score remained 6-4 into the bottom of the 8th as Darren O'Day came on from the Baltimore pen and gave up a HR to the first batter he faced as JD Martinez crushed a 442 foot blast to cut the Orioles lead to 6-5. O'Day would bounce back to get the next 3 hitters and preserve the lead as we would go to the 9th with Baltimore clinging to a 6-5 lead. Carson Smith would get through the top of the 9th unscathed and the Red Sox would come up in the bottom of the 9th needing a run as they trail 6-5. Baltimore closer Brad Brach made his way in to pitch the bottom of the 9th with the Orioles trying to hang to the 6-5 lead. Brock Holt would draw a lead off walk to put the tying run on base to begin the inning for Boston. Blake Swihart pinch hit for Sandy Leon and laid down a perfect bunt down the 3rd base line that Beckham could not pick up with the bare hand and Swihart would reach as Boston suddenly had two men on with nobody out. Jackie Bradley bunted the runners up to put the tying run on 3rd and winning run on 2nd base with 1 out for Andrew Benintendi. Buck Showalter called for an intentional walk to load the bases for Hanley Ramirez with JD Martinez sitting on deck. Hanley Ramirez came up with a clutch at bat as he fought off some tough pitches to stay alive and on the 8th pitch of the at bat he smoked a line drive into RF for a RBI single to score Holt and tie the game 6-6 as Swihart had to hold at 3rd base as the ball was hit too hard and Swihart needed to make sure it got through. JD Martinez was up next and he jumped on the first pitch he saw and hit a fly ball to CF that was more than deep enough as Swihart tagged and came home to score the winning run as the Red Sox walk off with a thrilling 7-6 come from behind victory

* The Red Sox came all the way back from 6-0 down and trailed 6-5 entering the bottom of the 9th before tying the game on a RBI single from Ramirez and walking off on a game winning sac fly from JD Martinez to give his team a 7-6 victory

* JD Martinez was 2 for 4 with a HR & 3 RBI including the game winning sac fly in the bottom of the 9th.

* Hanley Ramirez was 3 for 5 and had the game tying RBI single in the bottom of the 9th

* Caleb Joseph was 1 for 4 with a grand slam in the top of the 2nd and Jonathan Schoop was 2 for 4 with a double & HR to lead the Baltimore offense

* Brian Johnson got knocked around for 6 runs in 5 innings but battled to keep his team in the game after giving up the grand slam in the 2nd inning

* The Red Sox got 4 innings of 1 hit ball from the bullpen who came up big and gave the team the opportunity to stage the big comeback

* The Red Sox will travel out west to begin a 9 game road trip beginning with a 3 game series in Los Angeles against the Angels. The Red Sox will also play 3 games in Oakland against the A's before heading back east to Toronto to wrap up the trip with 3 games against the Blue Jays. David Price will take the mound in the opener against the Angels who will counter with Matt Shoemaker

Re: TNK MLB 2018 SLIDERS

TNK - RED SOX FRANCHISE
Game #17 of Season

Boston Red Sox (9-7) @ Los Angeles Angels (8-9)
Pitching Matchup - David Price vs Matt Shoemaker

The Red Sox took a 1-0 lead in the top of the 1st when Matt Shoemaker left a fastball up in the zone to Andrew Benintendi who hammered it 429 feet for a solo HR to RF. Jackie Bradley went deep for a solo HR to CF in the top of the 3rd to make it 2-0 but the Angels would get on the board in the bottom half of the inning when Ian Kinsler picked up a RBI on a ground out to Bogaerts that scored Marte from 3rd and the score was 2-1 after 3 innings of play. Shoemaker got into a little bit of a groove and retired 7 in a row before Eduardo Nunez and Christian Vazquez each went deep in the top of the 5th to make it a 4-1 game as all four of the Red Sox hits in this game to this point have been solo home runs. The Angels stranded two runners in the bottom of the 5th as David Price would get Kinsler to fly out to end the threat and send the game to the 6th inning with Boston leading 4-1. Cam Bedrosian and Noe Ramirez would sit the Red Sox down in the 6th and 7th innings for LA and Price would get through the bottom of the 7th with a 1-2-3 inning to end his day after 105 pitches and the Red Sox leading 4-1. Matt Barnes pitched a perfect bottom of the 8th for Boston retiring Maldonado, Kinsler and Trout to send the game to the 9th with Boston leading 4-1. Noe Ramirez remained in and the Angels got great work from their pen to keep them in the game as Ramirez got through the top of the 9th and LA would come up trailing by 3 runs in the bottom of the 9th with Boston closer Craig Kimbrel on his way in to try and close this one out. Kimbrel would get Upton to fly out and then struck out Pujols on 97 mph gas as the Angels were down to their final out with Kole Calhoun coming up. Kimbrel would start Calhoun with fastballs before finishing him off on a nasty curveball for the K to end the game and pickup the save as Boston wins 4-1

* The Red Sox take the opener of this 3 game series in LA by a score of 4-1

* The Red Sox managed just 5 hits but hit 4 solo HR in the game as Benintendi, Bradley, Nunez and Vazquez all went deep to provide enough offense to win the game

* David Price turned in a great outing as he pitched 7 strong innings allowing 1 run on 5 hits with 6 K. Price improves to 2-0 with a 1.93 ERA on the season as the lefty looks to have a big bounce back year after an injury plagued 2017

* Matt Shoemaker lasted 5 innings in the loss allowing 4 hits that all were home runs as the Sox jumped on the mistake pitches he made in the game

* Xander Bogaerts continues to struggle as he went 0 for 3 with 2 Ks and is hitting just .242 on the season with 0 HR

* The Red Sox and Angels will play the second game of this 3 game series tomorrow with Boston sending Rick Porcello to the mound against Andrew Heaney who will be making his 2018 debut for Los Angeles after beginning the season on the DL
