This looks like a clinic on how not to do things on the baseball field.

Now, the show that Red Sox Nation turns to her first.

This is Boston's most listened to nightly baseball show.

The Baseball Reporters with Tony Mazz.

Brought you by Big Wide Grocery Store, Team Mobile, Ram Bouchard's Auto Stores, Integrity from Marvin Windows and Doors,

test strips.com, Accura of Auburn, Anderson-Niquet, direct federal credit union, acetit.com, WFXT TV, and Mohegan's son. On Boston's home for sports, 985, the Sports Hub. Gastro off first, the 2-2. foul tipped into the mid, and that's the ball game.

The Red Sox win it in 13.

Final score, 4 to 2.

That's the bow you were looking for.

Four or hours, 27 minutes, and the Red Sox sweep the series.

They win five consecutive games after opening day and come home with a five game winning streak.

So you know, the problem is they should be six and oh, right? That's the problem is that they're five and one and they should be six and oh.

And the reality is that five and one is perfectly fine. And the Red Sox come home, five and one. they open tomorrow against the Tampa Bay Rays, the home opener, here at Fenway Park. Jimmy, let's open the phone lines right away here on the baseball reporter. 617-779-0-985 is your phone number. And you know what the problem is with me, Murray? You know what the problem is, Jim, Mary, really? You're a pessimist? Well, there's that. I mean, you know, ultimately it's a long list, Marie.

I know, and you're being kind there because you've sat next to me now for, is there almost three years? That is three years now. Holy crap. Three years. So you know about all my little quirks, insecurities. Ideosyncrasies. Out of all the mediosyncrasies is the word I'm looking for, yes. And you know what my problem is? What's that?

That's it. know about all my little quirks, insecurities. All of all the mediosyncrasies is the word I'm looking for. Yes. And you know what my problem is? What's that? Aside from being a perfectionist. I'm conflicted. See, I'm conflicted because I watch the Red Sox and I say, five and one, what's not to like? Five and one, of course, it's a bottom line business. We all know it's about winning games. Five and one.

Five and one matters. Five and one is good. You win five out of six every year. You're going to win a ton of games. I mean, what's that? 125 wins or something stupid like that? We all know that won't keep up, but that's a good pace. you don't find whether you're playing bad teams or good teams.

But I'm conflicted because I don't find whether you're playing bad teams or good teams.

But I'm conflicted because I don't think they can maintain that pace playing the way they're playing. And that's what the issue is for me with the Red Sox right now. I don't think that

they can maintain that pace playing the way they are playing. In fact, if they play the way they play, they are, you know, they'll be better than 500,

but they're not going to be what we want them to be.

They're not going to be anywhere close.

Which brings me to a comment that Alex Korra made after the game last night.
