Fire up the big guns
Christ they still have the podium out? Who is responsible for scheduling shit for the Rays bc they suck.
We probably missed you more than you missed us, Gaudin and Green.
Sean with a 2 run HR in game 1, a 3 run HR in game 2. Grand slam today?
Never thought I’d say this but I’m so glad to be back on Bally. Those fox guys last night sucked!
First pitch homer, who says no?
At risk of sounding like a shithead….. Isn’t this what pregame is for? Condolences and all, but seriously
People keep attributing the Bud Light fall from America’s number 1 beer to number 14 to the Dylan Mulvaney and homophobic boomers type thing, but really it’s all because Wade Boggs died and his consumption is finally zero.
Lol Braves radio guys eviscerating Boggs and the Rays as a franchise
Do they not schedule shit in Tampa? Their analytics department needs to find a new event director.
could boggs not afford a better toupee?
My husband made pancakes and bacon for a late breakfast before heading to the golf course for the afternoon. Me and the pup are lounging around hoping for a sweep.
Just give the man a bucket of chicken and start the game already.
That feeling of absolute dread and horror when you realize the season is already halfway over 🙁
Long ass ceremony for a dude that played there a whopping 2 years
travis denard
travis d’nard
Did Boggs try to break his own drinking record on the way to the ceremony?
The late, great Wade Boggs?
#STOP CALLING THAT LOW SHIT A STRIKE
Leadoff man Ronald “Michael Harris II” Acuña Jr.
You’d think being a superstar ronnie would get a more favorable zone. He’s been getting screwed at the bottom this whole series.
Every AB they steal a strike from Ronald. Imagine his numbers if he didn’t have to fight the umps too.
Ah, ump already on his bullshit
I have no qualms about them pushing the start back two weeks ago but they could have told us since everything still said 1:40.
Let’s get the sweep
May he rest in peace.
RIP Wade Boggs
