The Sox wasted another bases loaded situation in the first

Mikey must hate those, because he can’t even get a fucking fly ball.

It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.

Momentum sucking continues

LUGO kills momentum much too often with his striking out and especially his predictable hitting into double plays when it hurts the most. It is totally (IMHO) unjustifiable to defend this guy with his hitting into double play stats.

The YES network broadcast guys almost predicted he would hit into a DP his first time up today and presto, he does. It is not magic to make such predictions like this, only a simple observation of a momentum killing player who will hurt this team badly over the long run!

Tek got on base. Isn’t that enough?

Oh yeah

And Manny, Taco and Drew is already a pretty nice OF, so we didn’t need him. Still, while I get why many Sox fans hate him, I don’t. I think he’s a solid dude.

Me too!

I am in absoute awe of Lowell’s skills. You can’t pay him enough to compensate for the momentum generating force he provides. Too bad Lugo and Varitek couldn’t be taught a bit of Lowell’s know-how, at least when it comes to keeping a ball off the ground and not striking out!

I didn't want to say this earlier.

But Darrel Rasner is NOT a good pitcher. He’s throwing s(t)inking fastballs at 87, and his breaking stuff isn’t that great. And the walks attest to poor command.

That said, I hope the Yankees give him plenty of playing time.

The Yanks are most likely going to wait until his ERA goes up to 6.50 or something like that. He sucks.

Oki in to face Milky, Molina and Gardner

If he screws this one up, facing 3 really weak hitters, he needs his ass sent down to AA just like Francoeur.

Or they could call the game.

Sox up 6-3, > 5 innings in the book. Sounds fine to me. If this delay lasts too long, MDC won’t be available for the 8th, so we’d be looking at Hansen, Aardvark or J-Lo then.

People aren't there to watch baseball

is my main gripe. Vendors, “fans,” little kids – they’re all walking up and down the aisles every five minutes to get the ridiculously overpriced food and beer. I guess it’s like this everywhere now, but people have no respect for the game or other people around them who might be trying to enjoy it. Oh, and the Hip-Hip Jorge chants really need to stop.
