They're rotating guys from inning to inning
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.

Hey guys
I’m not getting the audio for the game. :(

Are you using Gameday audio?

You aren't missing much.

They've been interviewing Sox PR staff.
Very boring.

Twins off to a quiet 3-0 lead.
Wake had poor command. Hits from Pedroia and Youkilis. Not much else. Oh, and Remy is sick.

Mr. Quad-A gets the Sox on the board
Bailey has two hits.

Bailey knocks in Youk.
RBI single off Joe Nathan, who has uncharacteristically poor command.

Pedroia scorches one, bounces it off the fielder.
Reaches base for a single, and his night is done.

Missing Remy. Don does a good job though.
Josh Bard makes me nervous.

Is Ramon Ramirez already in? Wake me up when he’s in then, please.

I didn’t see him pitch, but the results look fine:
1 inning pitched, no hits, no runs, no walks, 2 K’s.

I caught a bit
He looked good from what I saw. He has a strange delivery and sort of short-arms the ball.

Heard about his delivery
Wish I had stay around to watch.
Good to see that Wake is sucking our momentum early on. :)

Probably just breaking in a "new catcher"
He’s trying not to overwhelm poor Bard a second time.
There might have been one well-hit ball off of him in those two innings—statistically, about what you’d expect. What killed them was the “Keystone Kops”-worthy defensive performance they had going on behind him.
That, and “Tim Wakefield” syndrome: the bats somehow mysteriously grow cold whenever he takes the mound.
