I was watching the Rays game
How did Dice-K look in the first?
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

Okay
Walked Kinsler, who got caught stealing, then got a GB out and a K.

Go Sox!
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."

Just wondering
What would our record be if our schedule was composed entirely of home games against the Mariners? I’m thinking like 152-10.

I don't know
Seattle might win 11 games. :-)

Tampa doesn't score in the 11th
They had 1st and 3rd and no outs.

Ziegler
Great time for him to give up his first runs

3 walks; 2nd inning
Dice-K is flirting with disaster
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."

We prefer to call it: strike zone challanged

That's a crazy stat
Opponents are now 0 for 12 with the bases loaded this season against Daisuke.
Dice-K has had a lot of practice pitching with the bases loaded.

Dice-K
Has he walked in any runs this year? I don’t think he has, which can be classified as a miracle.
by Gnick on Aug 14, 2008 7:36 PM EDT reply actions
I think he did
In Tampa, earlier in the season.

On the corners for The Rally Killer (Tek)
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
Wow ... tha was ugly
But it’s an RBI single for Coco
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
Tek & CoCo get on base in the same inning
I’ve seen it all now
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."

Now add Cora
Clutch RBI HBP

Now I've seen it all
Tek, CoCo & Cora on base at the same time
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
Is it drizzling at Fenway
or is the Rangers pitcher just a really slimy dude?
Manny ain't the only bad man.
No rain

"Youkilis is so hot, they are going to pitch to Ortiz"
Love it!!!!
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
Papi is hot.
Is it just me, or could the Rangers’ pitching staff be the worst in the history of baseball? I’ve covered 9-10 year old little league this summer with better pitchers.
They're pretty bad
They lead the AL in runs scored, but have a negative run differential.
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

The again, they pitched fairly well against the MFY
I think the Rangers won the season’s series.

no we had an even worse staff around 2003
i think the starters ERA was in the 6s.
Feliz and Hurley. The 1-2 punch of the future
Feels like it should be the 6th inning

Just saw this on the new widget on the left sidebar:
http://wbztv.com/sports/redsox/jason.varitek.divorce.2.794824.html
Is THIS the reason he’s been struggling? Perhaps…
I saw that earlier and thought the same thing
Look at Drew’s first half stats last year. Personal problems can affect a player’s performance. BTW, rumors have Tek and a sideline reporter together (shades on DLowe).

I’m not sure where I first heard it. It has been circulating, and made it’s way onto a few blogs.

I heard a similiar rumor last year, except it was with Tina. So I’m not sure how true these rumors really can be when there’s a new rumor with every new sideline reporter…
True. But some—like with DLowe—turn out to be true. I just hope Tek’s bed performance has more to do with his personal life than with age. Only time will tell.

That was just too funny
I liked it the way it was

Tek comes off as a wet blanket in interviews
if true she should have held out for someone on the Sox with some flair but I guess Tito’s not avail
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
Ok, how the hell does THIS happen?
If you go to LoneStarBall.com, they’re not on the boat — they’re jumping!
Interesting
I’m surprise the Blue Jays weren’t mentioned. In the late 80s/early 90s they regularly drew 4 million. Now …

I would have thought they'd be higher
I saw a game there once. They had whole sections closed.

the pic of the Cardinal fan with the painted face was disturbing
I would never have guessed that the Pirates & Rangers have a consistent draw…I know baseball isn’t just played on Tuesdays but ever time I go to Toronto they have some kinda $2 Tuesday ticket promo

Dice-K @ 93 pitches
Does he come out for the 7th?

I'd bring him out
but Francona WWDDD do?

No promises

Just got home
How good would be a team with the Rangers pitching, and the A’s offense? Just think about it. :)

Dice-K WHIP this season is higher than the one he posted last season
Meanwhile, his ERA is nearly the half. Okay, his HR numbers dropped very well, but I just can’t believe any sort of luck lasts more than 115 IP. Picture just how good would he be if he didn’t walk that many guys…
