I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
Beat me to it.
Funny how the Sox lineup is numbered but the Royals’ isn’t. Hope Lowell and Ortiz are okay – they’re both dealing with injuries.
Scored a double
Nice start

Tied at 1
Tampa and Cleveland tied at 3
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
Not starting well.
Beckett throws a fastball right down the middle of the plate to KC’s 2nd best hitter. Run scoring double, after Drew misplay.
Becks is also missing with his breaking ball location.
damn
I was hoping Beckett could make that 1 run hold up, after all its more then what we gave him against NY.
Too all Sox players, THEY ARE KANSAS CITY, LET’S JUST WAKE UP AND BEAT THESE GUYS 6-2 LIKE WE ARE SUPPOSED TO.
Beckett's fast ball in the low 90s
He usually throws harder

The offense will have to score more than 1 run to win

I don’t see how they continue to win games. Now with Joba going down and Wang still missing, their starting pitching is as thin as a supermodel.

The gameday
Also has him up to 95mph. He seems to be settling a bit, now if we can just get him some runs. I think I said 6 would be nice.
Visitng from LetsGoTribe ...
Only eight minutes left to submit an online endorsement for RSN Governor.
Please take a moment to endorse my buddy Jason for Maryland.
If you do this for him, I guarantee the Indians will come back to beat the Rays.
Thank you.

Edwin Jackson isn't going to make it out of the sixth inning in Tampa.
They have Howell warming up with one out.
No
But he has a good 2-seamer tonight. He hasn’t gotten the call. But it’s important to throw to both sides of the plate.

Lowell gets HBP.
On the shirt. Anyone else think balls off the shirt that don’t hit the body shouldn’t count?
remember buch yesterday
with that inside HBP?
He who hesitates is tagged out between first and second base.
Not good Lowrie
I can’t believe I just said that.
Or Tek
par for the course …

He's been pretty good for us with RISP.
But he won’t produce every time. Especially since nearly every plate appearance lately has seen him hitting with RISP.
4-0, Texas
I think Andy needs some special vitamins.
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
The Tribe have the bases loaded, 2 out
Grant Ball-Four on the mound …
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
Don't know if that's the greatest nickname for him.
A couple of weeks ago he was pitching pissed off about something and throwing great strikes very fast.
I'm betting on bad news for the MFY
From MLB.com:
Chamberlain underwent an MRI on his stiff right shoulder Tuesday in New York, but the Yankees did not immediately announce what that exam showed. The team revealed only that Chamberlain will travel to Birmingham, Ala., on Wednesday to receive a second opinion from renowned orthopedic surgeon Dr. James Andrews
.

yeah that can't be good
he’s an obnoxious SOB but hope it isn’t serious

Steven Seagal made the best scene ever
I don’t recall which of his movies, but he kicks a dude, like, he barely lifts his leg and the guy just fly. He is very funny, for sure. :)

My favorite Seagal scene
is in “Glimmer Man” when he offers to bribe a bunch of Russian mafia, and then pulls out a razor-tipped credit card and slices their necks open. Link.
Drew
I know someone pointed out that they didn’t like him hitting first, but let’s say it again, the dude is an OBP machine.
Pedroia gets his first hit.
He’s such a good hitter. I expect him to get at least two hits almost every night.
What happened to Bannister?
He had a nice season last year, didn’t he? He was TOP 5 or so on ROY if I’m not mistaken.

runners on 1st and 2nd with our 3,4,5 guys coming up and we go nothing out of that. That’s just sh*t. I agree with MGbyebye, Bay needs to bat 5th or higher
Bay has a career OPS+ of 131
That’s wonderful. People talk a lot that he’s a fine player, he isn’t just a fine player. He’s fucking great!

Cliff Floyd with the HR in Tampa, now 7-3.

Full count on the New Guy.
Should we just say Baywatch every time he comes up?
Or better yet, “Pamela Anderson/Carmen Electra sighting at (insert ballpark)”
PS:singled
I like both puns
but sadly can imagine McCarver saying them

Lowrie is tired of batting against mortals.
He wants to prove his glove is better than Wholio now. He likes to set low goals to bring his other achievements to human level. Let’s go lefty cap pitcher
Chris Smith with the 'save'
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.
No
What article?

You mean the one about how overrated the closers are?
I read that one because ‘don believe the hype’ is a great Public Enemy track. :)
But if that’s not the one, then I don’t know.

I sort of agree with the guy
But most closers are so badass that it doesn’t matter if they’re overrated or not. Not K-Rod. K-Rod is not badass. K-Rod is just overrated. :)

I have a sad feeling that the Rangers don't wanna win that game

They'd better win
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

Good Night All

Game
Now, keep the fucking lead, Texas.

Great game.
Beckett stepped up big time, LowRBI and Bay got nice hits, Papi drove some in. Timlin didn’t blow a 7-run lead. Good times all around. Goodnight everyone!
And they ask Tiger about it:
“Ugh. I don’t think it’s gonna end…” A man of the people, that Tiger is.
For what it's worth!
Other than the chronic offensive weakness at catcher, which WILL have to be dealt with by the eventual removal of Varitek IMO, I thought the line up for Tuesday night’s game was about the best I have seen or could imagine for the sox. Exciting and strong to say the least.
Even if they leave Varitek in for now, this line-up can repeat as champions. I stress that Crisp and Lugo MUST be kept off the field as they just don’t have even the potential to allow momentum to gather and extend. They are truly momentum suckers of the first degree. Ellsburg and Lowrie and Bay can infuse and foster momentum as they did on Tuesday. If you keep Crisp and Lugo out of the lineup, that just leaves Varitek as the sole primary momentum sucker, and although not ideal, one momentum sucker can be likely tolerated for a while!!
