INCREDIBLE Houck performance. LETS FUCKING GO SOX
Thank you Mr Houck
Houck with the *Maddux!*
What a bad motherfucker.
SHEESH, Houck had it tonight! Love to see it
We are so back
If our starting pitching can do that every game, we could win the World Series
Maddux
What an outstanding game for Houck. When was the last time you saw anyone throw a 3 hit shutout, much less a Sox pitcher?
And massive credit to Wong. That doesn’t happen without a great called game (and a dinger!)
Did you guys know Greg Maddux had 13 Houcks in his career?
This Andrew Bailey fella might be onto something!
Holy shit just tuning in Houck CGSO?? LFG!!
Houck dominated, Wong bomb, what else could you ask for. GOOD NIGHT
Can’t have a bullpen implosion if the bullpen isn’t needed!
Holy shit what the game is over??? I was just about to tune in
Good win! Congrats Tanner
What a fucking game from Tanner man – saved an exhausted bullpen who are now in great position to split the series tomorrow
It’s been doom and gloom and the frustating but also encouraging thing is that we are a few awful amateur mistakes away from being like 12-7 and a game back of the Yankees
Gotta hope this rotation gets healthy again but if they can, it’s only a matter of time before the offense heats back up
WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN HOUCKAMANIA RUNS WILD ON YOU, BROTHER
Our rotation continues to make baseball history.
1 hour, 49 minute game.
What an outing Tanner Houck.
Tanner saw what happened last night and said, “what if I just didn’t let the bullpen take the ball?”
What do I do with the rest of the night now?
That was awesome.
“LEMME TELL YOU MEAN GENE, WITH ALL THE LITTLE HOUCKAMANIACS OUT THERE CHEERING FOR ME, THAT MADDUX JOBBER DIDN’T STAND A CHANCE” –what the postgame interview *should* have been
We have the best rotation in the league (we are so back)
We might be the Iowa football of MLB
#OLD HOUCK RADBOURNE
I’ll be honest. I did not see Houck and Crawford battling it out for the cy young this year
Tanner. Houck.
This was nice. Let’s do it again soon.
What a masterclass
First pitch: 7:10
Game end: 9:01
I fucking love the pitch clock. Also, Tanner Houck is HIM.
For those of you who haven’t seen a sub-2:00 game before, well now you have.
The kids get to eat!!!
Let’s play two!
Immaculate game from Houck. Truly exciting to watch him deal tonight
THE Incredible Houck!
Just dealing, that splitter was nasty and the slider was moving. Hell of a pitching performance, and also I have to say that’s gotta be the fastest damn ball game I’ve ever watched in 30+ years of watching the sport, just wild, how rarely are you upset the game was too SHORT?
Tanner Houck and CGSO in the same sentence is genuinely something I’d never thought I’d see. What a game and massive shoutout to Andrew Bailey for this performances of the starters this year so far
[What a game](https://media.tenor.com/Vr5oMNMnNJIAAAAM/vince-vince-mcmahon.gif)
I’m so God damn proud of Houck. What a fuxking performance
Helluva game! great performance from Houck tonight.
What a great start, I’m too prepared to things to go south in recent years but it does feel like he might finally be putting it all together.
We are so back
We have never been more back than we are right now
And somehow the Red Sox are once again above .500. LFG!
I love houck and my man deserves all the praise
but wow how useless was dave bush lol
Kinda puts into question the “Can’t get through the lineup 3 times” thing doesn’t it?
So what’s the 2hr replay of this one going to look like? Do it all over again but make DOB talk extra slowly like he’s on Valium?
Y’know, it might be the 0BB that makes me the happiest.
