This is a simple game.

You throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball.

You got it.

on Boston's Home for Sports, 985, the Sports Hub. Every series for us is big, so I know where we had. I know where they had, so, you know, the goal is always win the series and move on. We win this series, we have a great week. We went to Tampa, two out of three. We win this series is five, five, seven, or six and one. So that's a good

week. We got to have great weeks, you know, the rest of the season. We know where we

at. So it's a big series. Got to have great weeks the rest of the season.

That is Alex Cora, manager of the Red Sox at Fenway Park just a short time ago,

where the Red Sox opened a four-game series against the New York Yankees.

Tonight with Rick Porcelo on the mound, and he is opposed by Masahiro Tanaka.

That's right.

So I always like watching Tanaka pitch.

I mean, when he's not on, he can get absolutely hammered. When he is on, he's a joy to watch. So, you know, to me there's a – and obviously the Red Sox have a lot at stake right now. I do find Koras comments kind of comical. And when I say comical, here's what I mean. if we have a good series, a good week. If we win the series, we can have a good week.

Five and two, six and one. Okay, so this is me just being me. But six and one, you're going to win all four of them? Like, who are you kidding? You're not winning all four. Have the Yankees lost four in a row all year?

I'd be one to bet they haven't.

I should check that out. I don't think they have, but let me check that, maz.

So, but before you do that, here is my question to you. Is this a big series for the Yankees? No. No, but I think they're treating it like one, but ultimately it is not a big series for the Yankees mass.

It's not even close.
