Scoreless first inning for both sides.

Sorry about the lateness. I spent the last fifteen minutes trying to get this up. Apparently the site doesn’t like Firefox.

g'day all

It’d be nice to take 3 out of 4 here. Where’s manny and when the hell does Papi get back?
Losing 2-1 yesterday was frutrating.

I’m pretty sure strike 3 was ball 4, but whatever.

I figured

Casey has a pretty good eye, for him to let strike 3 go by would be pretty rare if it wasn’t close.

Wake is throwing another great game

And the bets have yet to do anything. We’ve had a real hard time scoring with him on the mound, and we have for a while. This year it’s clearly not the absence of Tek that’s hurting us during his games… so what’s the problem?

Get rid of Crisp and Lugo.

Why are the sox running with Youk? It’s like running with Giambi for petes sake.

Little Man (Pedroia) is a stud. Talk about reliable.

by sox-inda-south on Jul 6, 2008 9:44 PM EDT reply actions  

Joba threw behind Youkilis

Almost hit him. Evokes memories of last season, with Joba’s headhunting escapades with Youk that got him suspended. If you’re gonna throw 97 mph, it better be over the plate.

By the way, Casey has to be among the top three slowest players in the league, right next to Hafner and the Big Hurt. Not a knock against him – he is batting .356 after all – but just pointing it out.

Joba?

I see him as a major league bullpen guy. His starts and stuff remind me of Papelbon’s, although Pap’s fastball has better movement. But I don’t think Joba is going to be a guy that pitches 7+ innings with any regularity for the NYY.
