So the game starts at 7
and we can watch it at 10?
We have lingered in the chambers of the sea /
By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown /
Till human voices wake us, and we drown.
i'm watching now
and in the bottom of the first so far we have 2 wild pitches and a throwing error by pedroia.
Pitching and defense is what we were working on, yes.
i'll do a bit till i lose focus
sox went down 1-2-3. Span singled, and advanced on a wild pitch. Hudson walked and then both advanced on another wild pitch. Span scored on Mauer’s ground out. Morneau struck out looking.
Weird camera angle
It’s hard to pick up the pitches.
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
play by play recap:
Span reaches on a trowing error by pedroia, after a great dive by pedroia
span gets to second on a wild pitch
Hudson walks on 4 straight balls
Span to 3rd on a wild pitch
mauer groundout – Span scores
Morneau strikes out
Cuddyer strikes out
1st inning over

youk doubles
announcer says “I’m not sure why they boo him here”
that was what i thought when i first saw him too.
Beltre singles, just over Hardy's glove
Youk doesn’t advance.
Tek, the rally killer, is up …
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
Pavano is pounding the zone pretty well
his pitches that are off seem barely off. Of course the second base ump’s head is in the way so i could be wrong. Terrible angle. You’d think if they could afford $184 for mauer they could get someone who isn’t an idiot to direct the broadcast.
True to form
Tek kills the rally with a DP.
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
i was thinking about that to watch on my big TV
but i decided to be impatient and watch on my computer.
ouch
punto singles past pedroia. Young scores and Hardy makes it to third. Runners on the corners with one out.
maybe hurt on the dive in the play were he made the error

That's what I'm thinking

From boston.com:
… the absence of Dustin Pedroia is more puzzling. Angel Sanchez came out to start the second inning at second base, after Pedroia started the game. Pedroia did dive on a ball by Denard Span to lead off the game, and throw the ball wildly to first for an error. It’s possible his departure is connected to that. No updates on him yet.

I don't know
(1) I can’t tell what Buchholz’s stuff looks like because the 2nd base ump is in the way most of the time.
(2) Most of the hits are GBs.
(3) Buchholz has never pitched well with Tek behind the plate.
(4) And, most importantly, it’s ST.

True on #3
But there’s too many misses with the fastball to make me feel good about his control. It’s been that way all spring, too.

span steals a base
actually looked like a good throw from Tek, but he had a great jump.
Then hudson singles off of first and scores two more.
Ramirez allows one run, then gets Young to Fly out to Sanchez
This play by play is depressing. Me and my beer are heading back to my couch to watch, i’ll tune back in here if something wonderful happens.
I think this is "pitch in the dirt" catcher practice.
That, or we’ve got some really wild young guys…

What next !
OK i know it is s/t and i am not a doom and gloom guy but we have to play better then this !
