Anyone remember
how Mirabelli was the only one who could catch Wakefield? Cash has done really well to silence those doubts.
Yeah, but Mirabelli could catch the knuckler with one hand
while holding a turkey drumstick in the other.
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

welcome to OTM!
Lets give a warm welcome by clinching a playoff spot tonight!
My last sig was too long, so my new one is: He who hesitates is a mediocre ambidextrious stupid person who thinks the Rays suck and stole Joe Maddon's shoes while thinking he was at a baseball game but was at church.
Nice play by Cora
But why throw to 3B?
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
Keep the runner close.
He probably didn’t have time to get the runner at 1st. Hey, we should be happy Cora made a play to his left. A lot of those balls seem to go right by him.
Oki was great last night
Let’s hope he is as good tonight

He has been much better with inherited runners lately

That he has.
Delcarmen’s been better lately also, but he still hasn’t put everything together as a reliever, as tonight indicates.
August: 3.21 ERA, Opposing batters against .196 / .283 / .294
September: 0.77 ERA, Opposing batters against .079 / .125 / .211
Who's leading?
Score?

Can't see it, either
The cable “Extra Innings package” where I am blacks out all Cleveland games, so I’m out of luck – looks like I’m missing a helluva game, but I am following it via the written word on the computer.
Hold on, Sox!!!

Hey
I thought there was a required number of words in a post. 75, or something like that. Or can 0157H7 waive that because his other blogs are usually so long?

Hey, was up?
Still don’t have the PC fixed?
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.

It's my mutant power.
I was bitten by a radioactive typewriter. Now I have the proportional strength of a copyeditor, and a special ‘Spellcheck sense.’
To answer your question, I have front-page privileges, and can compose stories, which have different characteristics than fanposts. That does allow me to avoid any limit on fanpost length. I kind of like short game thread intros.
I hope people aren’t put off by the length of my other posts.
I knew I would get a dramatic answer.
Thats cool.

Hey...
It would be just like the Sox to beat the best pitcher in the game this year to clinch, soooo very dramatic.
Nice to show the rest of the league just who will be the boss come playoff time.
Since the MFY are up 3-1, we will have to win to clinch tonight.

Rays won 4-2 i think

5-2 in the early game...
Down 2-1 right now…

pitching to the bottom of their order also
He should sail through this, then hand it over to paps to finish this thing off once and for all.
I said at the beginning of the season that this a 95 win team, and they’ll get close to that. If the Rays do better, good luck to them.
I'm sure your wife is happy you tell people she weighs 140+ pounds...
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
Ummm.... I weigh 190+.
Although I am 5’10 3/4" and a dude.
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
see...
now this is what you didn’t want. All they had to do was get 3 out of 4 guys out at the bottom of the order, how hard is it really?
For someone like Masterson with poor strike zone command
It’s difficult. I would’ve preferred Okajima to remain in.
Just got home
Paps in with the bases jacked… Big test for him, I think.
Mother---- him and John Wayne!
Two good news
Jamey Carroll still sucks, and Paps is still the game’s best closer. :)
Mother---- him and John Wayne!
Not at Yankee Stadium...
Good thing it’s being torn down…
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
I don't get the Sox, man
After being shut down by a crappy lefty, we knock around the one who’s having the best season…
Mother---- him and John Wayne!
Adrenaline rush!!!!!

Hey, take it as a good sign
We aren’t going to see too many crappy starters in October.

Well, unless we play the Rays...
E-Jax = FEAST

Yeah
I’m more scared of facing the Rays because of Sonny than I’m because of Garza, Kazmir or Shields. :)

Sorry, amend my comment to say:
Kazmir = FEAST

I'll worry about the Rays later
We have to beat the Angels first.

We need some more runs this inning...
Or I’m gonna need some saxophone therapy… : )

Lowrie looks lost at the plate
4 for his last 37.

Lugo coming back might be a good sign
Not that I wanna start him, but at least it’s a good option. Right now, the only other guy that can play SS is Cora. And I’m not sure I’d EVER start Cora over anyone.

As he is setting up for the tenth pitch...

Tek is a no-hit catcher in two aspects.

Tito loves the hit and run with a non contact hitter at the plate

A hit-and-run w/ Cash and Cora?!?!
That’s the ugliest—and stupidest thing—I’ve seen in a while.

Have you seen this lately?

That's prettier than the botched hit-and-run play I just saw

I need to see a vid to decide for myself.
Damn marketing rules.

Consult the Book of Armaments Baseball-Reference…
Over the last 28 games, we’ve had 8 CS, counting all innings.

That is the literal turn around of what Rays fans said to me on Monday.

We can relax for the rest of the week!
Great job, Sox!!!!
Nope, just a little crazy yoga praying:

We lost a game we shouldn’t have, and won another we couldn’t have. :)

Hey All
HURRAH!!
freakin profs kept us in class about 30 mins longer than normal
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."

I got off about 30 mins earlier
Funny, uh? :)

You lucky SOB.

I was BENT!! I kept thinking what the eff; let us go!!!!!

Always have one of these in your bag:

Are they perhaps Yankee fans trying to keep the illusion of their chances alive?
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
pfffffffffft!
I read Pinstripe Alley ; one comment was about the Sox self destructing
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
ALRIGHT!!!
Now we are totally them:
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
I was the only Sox fan in class
The others ( two) were MIA – it’s a small class but mostly Yankee fans— they should be well rested the rest of the semester as they wont be up late watching the games
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
Good for them.
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
I think your comment was deleted over in MFY-ville
oh well; they know…
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."

They know that we are the new Yankees...
Hurrah for being able to be an @$$ to other fans (with reason)!!!
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
That point should've been more powerful, but it isn't...
Not too many people over there compared to the beginning of the season.
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
After last night, the unthinkable scenario became thinkable. The sox really had to get rid of that over their heads and win this game tonight
I disagree
These aren’t my father’s Red Sox or the 70’s, 80’s or 90’s Sox. This team right now just kicks arse. Ever since overcoming the 0-3 deficit to NY in 2004, we are a different club, and its effing great, I waited 40 years for it to change.
Coming up soon: 3rd Birthday of the NEW Red Sox
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
So:
Should I go full out decked in Sox gear tomorrow? I don’t have to eat a hat, so I think that would be the appropriate response to winning the bet.
Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.
Go ahead.
Just stay away from the mobs of Rays fans. I hear that sometimes they have like four of five people together in one place. Could be dangerous.
I scare the hell out of most of the kids at my school.
If I don’t like them, they stay away. I yell loud too. : |

Night all...
