Red Sox (Crochet) vs Cubs (Horton): 7/20/25, 1:20pm

[JHBulls]

A GS will do here. 

[UMFan83]

I was worried Crochet would get through this inning with under 70 pitches but instead he has 80 now.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Just a single to keep the line moving and hopefully get Crochet out soon will suffice, Kelly 

[chibears55]

Need to cash in here, come on Kelly

[Geographyhater8888]

9 baserunners and 1 whole run. 

[UMFan83]

1 run on 9 baserunners in 5 innings blah

edit: guess I was late lol

Laaaaaame

[chibears55]

So Turner is 0 fer 2 with flyout and weak ground out, I dont know, I think I'll start taking my chances with Busch over this bum going forward.

[PeanutPunch33]

Hopefully Seiya not hurt. Didn't like that reaction 

[chibears55]

If Horton can  get through this inning  it'll be huge

[We Got The Whole 9]

Another brutal leadoff walk. Throw better pitches.

[UMFan83]

3rd time through the order, lost command, leadoff walk. Definitely want to get the pen up here

What the hell? 

[JHBulls]

I watch A LOT of Baseball and that is genuinely the first time I’ve seen a successful obstruction decision. Yay me! 😞

That whole play just felt weird from no one covering 2nd (I get that Nico thought Dansby wouldn’t get the ball) to Carson Kelly tagging out Duran at 3B

[Rcal10]

Nice start by Cade. I really like this kid. He is going to be very good. Too many walks today, but still a great start. 

[PeanutPunch33]

Great job Thielbar!

[Hot Sauce]

Thielbar has been such a stud all season.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Thielbar has been incredible this year. Jed had an A+ off-season. Would've been double plus with a PCA or Tucker extension.

There was that one probably 15 years ago now against the White Sox where it was a super obvious obstruction against the White Sox, the umps called it and Hawk completely lost his shit on air.

That doesn’t sound like Hawk Harrelson at all.

Two doubles off a tough lefty for PCA is very very nice
