And Guardos castoff Big Willie Benson walks off the Doyers for a second night in a row. If the Reds can develop these young powerhitters they are gonna put up huge numbers in that ballpark (which is actually a fun place to see a game).

“That ball had a family!” Is a great call for that HR.

Lol @ that call.

I always liked sitting under the Smokestacks in Center cause you’re nearly guaranteed to have a ball hit your way and you get the better skyline view.

New SkyDome™ renovations are mint. They've added a bunch of general admission areas in the outfield, and they now sell a $20 ticket to get you in the stadium with no assigned seating so you can wander around wherever. Behind the visitors bullpen is the new bleachers section, no assigned seats it's all first-come-first-served. Went with a buddy and got the perfect spot right when the gates opened. I knew they were close to the players, but geez - they're right up in your face. Excellent view for the whole game - we never ended up leaving our seats.

Drunk asshole behind me with lame-ass heckles was bad, but the people actually laughing at his stupid shit were even worse imo. Maybe I'm getting old and soft, but to me it's just fuckin' mean to shout at a 24 year old kid who's making $700k trying to follow his dreams. My buddy and I encouraged him and told him to keep trying his best until he makes it big. Felt more wholesome, for sure!

Sox announcers: “Ramirez has been scuffling. This was a good time for the Sox to see him.”

Two minutes later he hits a bomb.

Nice job Dave.

Glad I switched to hockey! Haha.

**BmillsSkier** · 06-08-2023, 07:31 PM

It’s his 7th game where he’s hit at least one HR from both sides of the plate.

It’s Josey’s first 3-HR game, hitting career #s 199, 200 and 201.

It’s his 21st multi-HR game, moving him into 5th all time for franchise history behind Albert Belle (26), Jim Thome (26), Hal Trosky (25) and Manny Ramirez (22).

He is now 9th all time in Guardos/Tribe history.

Oh and he also had a web gem dig from 3rd.

The only part that isn’t awesome is he roughed up former Teammate and muti-Cy Young winning Indian, Corey Kluber in the process.

José Ramírez; good at baseball.

**Woodsy** · 06-08-2023, 07:34 PM

Jose is on top 5 list of "watch this guy" for my son.

Yeah. Him, Raffy and Vladdy Jr are going to be a fun next generation of players to watch

**Woodsy** · 06-08-2023, 07:40 PM

I mean right now
My kids a decent player, watching Mookie, Jose, etc only helps

**GimpToo** · 06-09-2023, 06:01 PM

I'm pissed - pay for MLBtv and Prime and cannot get Yank game in Vermont! Losing interest in baseball - glad the kids are enjoying to keep alive!

**Supermoon** · 06-09-2023, 07:58 PM

All Raffy needed to break out of his slump was juiced balls and Gerrit Cole on the mound.

**Woodsy** · 06-09-2023, 07:59 PM

Looking forward to seeing Dodgers in PHilly with boy tomorrow

**BmillsSkier** · 06-09-2023, 09:20 PM

Guardos come back 5 times to walk off the reigning champs in 14!

These damn Guards are starting to roll!

Schwarber showed off that ELITE athleticism on that triple, too.

**ex-powderbroker** · 06-11-2023, 02:53 PM

Guards beat the trashtros again in a nice win. I kinda feel for the Twins* though, they should have a cushion but just don't seem to win games.

* Not that one guy.
