So from 10am to 2pm you have a show that reinforces every negative stereotype about Boston Sports?

well, both shows are the #1 rated show, in all markets, all demographics, throughout new england.

the 10-2 show is Gresh and Zo, andy gresh & scott zolak. they're pretty football focused, hard to describe their show.

Homer Bailey has had the last two no hitters in baseball. Dude is either lights out or balls. Went to Monday night's game and going tonight. Seeing a no hitter would've been awesome.

Hopefully this is the kind of momentum shift the Reds need to play as mercilessly as the Pirates have.

Plus Homer Bailey is just such a great GD name for a baseball player. It just sounds like someone who would have played in the 20's. Sort of like Woody Dantzler III in football, except he never amounted to shit. Man was I pulling for him just for the name.

I was at that game, it was a pretty cool moment though a lot of Twins fans were bothered at honoriong a Yankee player, which was dumb I thought.

Also I was shocked at how many Yankee fans flew in for the game. A full 1/3 if not more than that that were in attenddence were Yankee fans. I know many of them were local but I talked to probably a few hundred people that were from different areas in New York that came out for the game. (I was working at the game) Crazy.

Fuckin' Max Scherzer.

First pitcher in 27 years to be 13-0 before July 4th and now 1 of 5 in MLB.

I mean, wins mean dick really but still, pretty impressive.

Really impressive. With that lineup and 1-2 of Verlander and Scherzer, Tigers should be killing it more than they are. Bullpen suck or back end of the rotation? What's the deal?

Speaking of bullpens!

Being realistic, Pirates will still probably be lucky to get a Wildcard. They've got the best top to bottom pitching in the league I think, but the bats are just too GD mediocre. It's not impossible that the pitching can carry them deep, their rotation is stupid deep and the relief is outstanding, but it's a really big ask over a whole season. Scoring just enough to win is great come playoff time, but trying to get there you'd like to have some games that aren't so reliant on the pitchers.

Pirates have scored 6 total runs in this 4 game losing streak. Pitchers have to hold a team to 1 run max to get a win right now. Elite pitching + Mediocre batting is a recipe for streakiness and disappointment.

Homeslice thems is facts. I posted about it days before the slide started=P

My team is relevant to the league for the first time since before Miley Cyrus was born, I get to talk about them all I want=P


Plus it's just me, I can't possibly do as much damage as our massive Texas contingent.





And yes, I googled "famous twenty year olds" to find a famous example.

Welcome to this year's San Fransisco Giants. The hitting, especially with RISP, has been atrocious.

Why did they have to wait till they played Oakland to stink it up?
