People will downplay a bit Pivetta's game because it's against the A's, but dude HAD it today big time. Respect! Getting 13 strikeouts in 6 innings is damn impressive no matter who it’s against!

Clearly there has been an uptick in stuff since Pivetta moved into this role.

Ohtani 2-out, 2-run homer ties the Yankees game.

Bullpen game and 17 Ks. Well worth staying up for. And Oakland is not a good team - we really need to sweep away these guys.
make that 18Ks. 1 hitter. Wow.

Ugly K for Yoshida, haven’t seen much of those lately. I think of those as "take your hacks and get the game over with" strikeouts. Masa is a team-first guy.

18 Ks and 1 hit... They just bested Pedro's 17 K/1 hit game against the Yankees in 1999 (admittedly a, uh, slightly more potent offense).

So the Red Sox have finally matched their high water mark of the season, 7 games over. 500.
They were 21-14, and have been 30-30 since then, as they went 19-28, followed by 11-2 to even that out.
Pivetta was awesome. The Sox took fool advantage of a pathetic A's team. Fantastic.

Sox and Yankees seasons divide nicely.
Before they played one another
37-27 Yankees 31-32 Sox
After the first pitch head-to-head
13-18 Yankees 20-12 Sox
That's 2.5 games gained against 3rd parties in addition to the 4 gained head-to-head.

I put back my doctor's appointment so I could watch the start at least. Got to the strikeout looking in the 9th before drop dead to leave time. What a game by Pivetta. He had me worried in the second inning when he thought he had strike 3 to end the inning but the ump didn't think so. He totally lost it but recouped in the third. Duval is heating up and Casas looks like a new Casas, much more aggressive.

Pivetta is a gamer. Really excited to see his resurgence. This guy-who-follows-the-opener role was tailor made for him Considering his reticence to leaving the rotation he has played extremely well.
