You've got to be f'ing kidding me. Yankee Stadium may be a bigger joke than Coors Field. I'm gonna have to go take a look at the MFY home/road splits...

This place is a house of Horrors for Price. Start him in Game 2 at Fenway Park if we have to face these guys.

I don't blame Price one bit for this. Not one bit. What a stupid f*cking stadium.
If the Green Monster were 3 feet tall, Fenway would be comparable to Yankee Stadium.

HAHAHA>You just have to laugh now, because this is a JOKE.
I just don't know how a Major Leaguer can get excited about hitting a ROUTINE Fly Ball that goes 340-345 Feet that SHOULD be outs. Embarrassing , really.

Mookie Betts would have not even had to move back to catch all three of those home runs if they were in Fenway.

Just start him in Game 2 in a playoff series. The MFY have hit probably 6-8 of those kind of homeruns in Yankee stadium to RF like that this year against Price.

I'm tired of hearing the complaining about the park. They don't move the fences back when the Sox hit, do they? How about the Red Sox hit some cheap joke home runs? Are they incapable of hitting 340 foot pop flies?
The Red Sox have played like absolute crap this series.
I was hoping they'd party at the Bronx. All they had to do is not get swept and instead they can't hit with runners in scoring position, they made a hideous error and they're giving up the long ball but can't hit it themselves.
Everybody with an IQ above 0 knows the Sox will win the East. That's already settled, but partying at the Bronx is special for those of us who still really hate the MFYs. The Sox are messing this up big-time, kind of like they did 2 years ago.

Even though Price wasn't as sharp as he has been, i'm blame Price either. Game should probably be 1-1 right now.

That is a huge advantage, no matter how much you make excuses for it.

And I would prefer to take my chances with the A's in the post-season. They're a great team but that starting pitching is terrible, they don't have Manaea, and although their bullpen has been good, I'll take my chances with the Sox going up against Rodney or Familia, especially with the HFA.

His command was iffy tonight, at best. Should they have hung a 6 on him? Clearly no. However, he wasn't #2 starter good by any sane standard.

Boston media is going to be brutal on him, with many reporters not mentioning that he gave up 3 home runs that were 340, 341 and 343 feet.

That is a huge advantage, no matter how much you make excuses for it. That's ridiculous. Teams hit fly outs like that all the time. Christ, the Yankees won in 1978 because they beat the Red Sox with a pop fly over the Fenway wall. The 2004 Red Sox slammed 4 HRs to RF in the old Toilet during Game 7. I don't care how many games the Yankees get to prepare, the Red Sox should be able to loft some flies to shallow RF themselves. Does JDM not hit balls to RF? Are Moreland or Benintendi incapable of hitting the ball out to RF? C'mon. Just to be clear - I'm not even blaming Price here, but I'd want no part of him at Yankee Stadium in the playoffs. Fortunately, he'd start Game 2 at Fenway.

Red Sox are using multiple signs without a runner on 2nd. They think the Yankees may be stealing signs.

That was strike 3 to Judge.
Pitch framing should not be a skill. Its either a strike or its not, regardless how/where the catcher catches the ball.

Right, and Fenway is not an advantage to the Red Sox, despite building their team around players who hit to LF. Because it's the same park for both teams playing there.

Yeah, it's an advantage but that doesn't mean that other teams don't hit that wall, too. If a Sox pitcher hangs a pitch to a righty the monster is going to get a workout. The point I'm making is the Yanks have an advantage but that doesn't excuse the Sox from not hitting. They have the same chance. They have guys capable of finding the cheap seats in RF.

The MFY play a series of 4 in Tampa before coming to Boston while the A's play some crappy teams (Padres, LAAA) it will be a pleasure sending them to the Bay area.
