Game #31 GameThread: Jays @ Red Sox

MLB: Toronto Blue Jays at Boston Red Sox Bob DeChiara-USA TODAY Sports

Getting a late start on the GameThread. I joined a hiking club and had my first hike today. It was a wee bit on the warm side. My first time out in the sun each spring is hard on me. I have skin that was designed over centuries, for an island that never saw the sun.

This is cute:

Tonight Chapman gets the half day off as DH. Espinal plays third. Kirk is behind the plate.

Send me a note if you want to volunteer to hit cleanup for us and do the GameThreads.

We are glad you are here and hope you feel welcome. As a reminder, we have rules. Mostly it’s “Don’t be terrible.” If a moderator asks you to stop doing something, please stop. If you want to discuss the rules, don’t do it in the thread. Email Tom instead. He would love to see an email not offering him money to promote a sports betting site. We also have a BBB Glossary full of GameThread lingo you can find here.
