That’s a little better…

3 very good starts in a row….and the Sox finally win one of them.
Have to feel just a little bad for Halladay, who gets ANOTHER complete game without a win.  For those with trouble reading lips, you clearly saw Halladay shout as Wells bobbled Youks’ hit “You have got to be f’n SHITTING me!”  Wells […]

That was a cockpunch

Nice outing by Clay; nice Manny-esque styling by Iwomura.

Third spot starter in a row

In a getaway game this afternoon vs. the Halos, Sox prospect Justin Masterson gets the start at Fenway after Beckett and Dice-K both got scratched in the past two days. Masterson has pitched well in AA this year; I happened to catch his start against the New Britian Rock Cats earlier this month.
I was […]

Round 2 a Draw (slight edge to Sox)

Why the slight edge, you might ask?
Well, the Sox were very hard on Wang, and Beckett cruised last night despite not being at his best.
Yes, the play on words was intended.
Not sure why some of you are having a problem with chat….maybe your passwords need to be reset?
EDIT:  I reset one user’s password, and it […]

Round 1 to the Sox

Well, we got the overhyped 1st Sox/Yanks series out of the way this weekend, and for the most part they were good, entertaining games.  I can’t figure out how Wang threw a complete game 2 hitter when it seemed pretty obvious that his sinker wasn’t working the way it is supposed to (lots of fly-outs).  […]

Opening Day, Part IV: The One That Counts

A great day all around, eh?
Unlike 2005, I watched this one on TV.  And not even live; I had to watch it once I got home.  Good stuff, though…never gets old.

Was I the only one who thought when they introduced the reps for the 2004 Sox: “Brian Daubach?  He got a ring in 2004??”  They […]

Opening Day, Part III: Back on Foreign Soil

So the Sox get to participate in a THIRD Opening Day, in the land of the Great White North.  And for the first time, we East Coasters get to watch a game at a normal hour.  I don’t count the day game the other day…like most of you, my routine during baseball season largely revolves […]

Opening Day, Part II: Stateside

You know, I’d much rather have another 6 AM game than have a 10:30 PM game to start the season.  The plus side is this gets one of the West Coast trips out of the way; the negative is that I’m going to be pretty tired tomorrow morning.  Here’s hoping Matsuzaka picks up where he […]
