Yeah, but in Fenway LF, the balls that you'd be scared of letting behind you would bounce high and come back.

conservative in fenway takes on so many meanings not just on the field
On Sunday, we sat with a bunch of stiffs! Sox didn’t play well but man oh man were my seat mates pi$$ers.

BORING!!

I think Paps was being the opposite of conservative.
He was putting it all out there, instead of taking control of the situation himself.

love the pic!
this game? not so much. not yet anyway.

How many more #'s do they have space for?
Looks like 7 spaces to me.
@bs_uf15bosox9be:OverTheMonster-ALLERGEN WARNING:May contain PB.
The bar is pretty high. You have to have at least 10 years with the Sox AND be in Cooperstown. The only ones that don’t fit that are Robinson and Pesky.
by Randy Booth on Jul 28, 2009 11:10 PM EDT up reply actions
We'll let Robinson pass on that for now...
Pesky might have made it into the HoF if not for losing some of his best years to the war.
@bs_uf15bosox9be:OverTheMonster-ALLERGEN WARNING:May contain PB.
Of course he did.
It wouldn’t be that hard to convince me that Ted Williams was actually the first man to make contact with the moon.

Continuing from the last thread,
I am a huge supporter of female participation in sports. I was just pointing out that Nomar and Mia have girls, and thus the kids should be referred to with female pronouns. Sorry about the badly worded original post.
ZING! ZANG! ZUNG!
don't worry about it make a crabby patty

I think Dave meant that Nomah would be willing to co-coach EVERY kid on the team.

Nah, just BadMDC.

MDC wants you to fear him
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
Are 1,2,3 innings too much to ask?
I told ya!!
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
Pfffffft
Paps and Green started it but MDC is just lame.
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
Yeah, but he should be having dinner by now,
… and instead, (thanks to P&G) he’s struggling with this.
BC14
well, he kinda got served
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."

Great, MassGal, you gonna defend yourself on the murder charges?

Unless you hit them in the ear...

And when we fail to score...
The cries for a Big Bat will be deafening.
by South Coast Ghost on Jul 28, 2009 11:11 PM EDT up reply actions
Not necessarily. We scored 7 runs (so far). The bullpen just blew it (for once).
by Randy Booth on Jul 28, 2009 11:13 PM EDT up reply actions
yup we wated a 7 run effort
"Man that ball got outta here in a hurry, you know anything that travels that far oughta have a damn stewardess on it, don't you think?" - Crash Davis
We have 12 hits and 7 runs.
They will be slapped for suggesting that.
@bs_uf15bosox9be:OverTheMonster-ALLERGEN WARNING:May contain PB.
Oh this absolutely isn't a loss for the offense
But that won’t stop some people, we both know it. They’ll say “If we had 10 runs we’d win!”

Spaceman...
… never forget the time he wandered out to the bullpen one Saturday afternoon… must have been bored… and started a fire in the toilet.
BC14
that was hilarious he must been one helluva teammate

not to be ALL NGish
but MDC must go. I don’t get it, I do not. Is he someone’s nephew?
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."

What? Why? Look at his numbers. They’re good. Just a bad night tonight.
by Randy Booth on Jul 28, 2009 11:14 PM EDT up reply actions
overall I am not impressed
to me his is average. He is no bridge. I find him to be average.
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
2nd/3rd best stuff on the team, depending if Buch's on the team at the moment.
According to some, he’s right behind Beck. I’d place Lester before either, but whatever.

"Stats from the spring," he said when handed the numbers. "I can take those down to the spare bathroom in the house. We can put them to use down there."
- Paul Rhoads
Lowrie should've been playing this whole game
That’s just my opinion.
by South Coast Ghost on Jul 28, 2009 11:23 PM EDT reply actions
could we go back in time
& have Lowrie pinch field for Green?
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
or defense substitution for 9th inning
worked for the pale hose in the perfecto
"Stats from the spring," he said when handed the numbers. "I can take those down to the spare bathroom in the house. We can put them to use down there."
- Paul Rhoads
I didn't realize Buch was working on blowing his reputation up like a balloon...
@bs_uf15bosox9be:OverTheMonster-ALLERGEN WARNING:May contain PB.
not for him
i think at this point we need to have the best defensive alignment whenever paps enters the game

OK
about MFY fans—they have been silent all season. Silent since 2000. “Silent all these years” as sung by a rather thin woman ( Tori Amos). Tell them to zip it.
"You know," Girardi said, shrugging his shoulders, "it didn't work."
( Joe Girardi on pitching to Manny Ramirez with first base open)
Well at least we didn't lose any ground to the MFY

Tex wins though
we’re losing ground in Wild Card Race!

I don't even care about what happens outside of the AL East
I completely forget the other WC teams, I just assume second place in the East gets you a playoff berth.

Good Night All!
tomorrow , tomorrow.
