Now Beckett will throw a no hitter and lose.

No, you can't have a Yankee-Red Sox game without bullpens blowing leads all night and Al Leiter making a random apperance.

Edit: Christ, here it comes.

 

[MrOctober]

I love you Mike Lowell. Will you go to the prom with me?

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

The rebirth of Mike Lowell has just been beautiful.

Varitek is quickly becoming a corpse. When you factor in the 4 years/$40 million contract... that makes me a bit worried.

 

[Y2Kev]

All right boys, let's get it back.

front office was right about Nomar and Lowe, maybe they should have stuck to their guns on Varitek.

 

[Y2Kev]

Holy shit andy phillips.

Beckett's fb is not working.

 

[vatstep]

Andy Phillips? You've gotta be shitting me.

 

[MrOctober]

Andy Phillips? Are you serious Josh? Can you stop giving up homeruns on the road please?

 

[Eminem]

Oh man Beckett is dying out there.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

The pitch selection has been atrocious this inning. STOP THROWING SO MANY GODDAMN FASTBALLS. Ugh.

 

[MrOctober]

:lol

Two posts in a row that start with "Andy Phillips?"

 

[Y2Kev]

Oh man Beckett is dying out there.

No control on the breaking ball and poor location on the fastball.

If he settles in it'll be trouble but right now it's just all over the place. Four straight hits.

So miguel cairo tries to bunt.

Holy christ.

 

[Eminem]

If he has to leave early, the Red Sox bullpen is ****ed with Pauley going tomorrow.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

This is why he gets killed by Toronto. They call nothing but fastballs to teams that clobber fastballs.

 

[Fifty]

Man, Beckett's pitching like he's facing the Jays.

 

[Y2Kev]

This is why he gets killed by Toronto. They call nothing but fastballs to teams that clobber fastballs.

Well, Tek is calling for breaking balls but they are just not getting over.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

This is a joke.

 

[vatstep]

6 hits, still no outs. Wow

 

[Eminem]

hahah holy shit

 

[Y2Kev]

OH MELKY. BAD MELKY.

come on giambi. Use your eye.

Holy. Tits.

 

[Eminem]

Well that about wraps this game up.

 

[MrOctober]

Well i'm going to go read comic books or something.

 

[vatstep]

****!!!

I'm turning this off now.

 

[Tamanon]

Huh....so the Sox aren't doing so hot right now. Beckett's looking horrid.

 

[Y2Kev]

I have an idea for the next Hitman game. A hit in a baseball stadium. Full of people. It'd be awesome.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Well, that's enough for me. Awful, awful performance.

 

[Wellington]

:lol

Great, I have both Beckett and Mussina on the GAF fantasy team. So much for a pitchers duel.

 

[Eminem]

I have an idea for the next Hitman game. A hit in a baseball stadium. Full of people. It'd be awesome.

Yeah, but you'd have to watch the pitcher you're rooting for give up like 7 runs first, then he gets capped before the manager can pull him.

 

[Y2Kev]

His line isn't complete yet but like...

1.1 IP 7 ER 7 H

Ouch.

Yeah, but you'd have to watch the pitcher you're rooting for give up like 7 runs first, then he gets capped before the manager can pull him.

You could have to do the hit before the pitcher is pulled. God I hope the manager is lou pinella. :lol

 

[MrOctober]

I thought that ****ing inning would never end.

 

[calder]

lol Beckett knew what he was getting into going from facing '7.5 batters' in a NL lineup to the AL. He's been tuned up by the Jays already (and cleveland right).

I have Mussina dressed, hope he doesn't follow suit.

 

[Triumph]

Beckett posted a Wandy Rodriguezesque 47.25 ERA after two innings. Ugh. I can't give him the Wandy treatment and boot him off my team, either. Maybe I'll trade him for a twelve pack or something.

 

[The Frankman]

Can the Red Sox overcome Cena-Like odds tonight?

 

[Eminem]

:lol Zambrano just hit a 3 run homer

 

[Link]

I actually like that Milledge went and high-fived people.

I think personable, young stars could really draw people into the game. Not that it matters, but baseball has enough Barry Bondses.

I completely agree, I don't see anything wrong with that kind of attitude... if you actually win the game. I don't think celebrating early like that is really the best thing to do.

• The Mets are still trying to acquire Lugo to play second base, but they have been frustrated trying to meet the Rays' asking price.

Heck, the way Valentin is producing, there's no rush.

 

[Y2Kev]

The Melk man!!!

 

[Tamanon]

So what I don't understand. It's an 8-run lead in the the 3rd inning. There's talk of going deeper into a shallow bullpen on the first game of the series.

Why not, just admit that you'd need an insane power hitting boost to win and not bother going into the bullpen more. Save those guys for the next 3 games.

If they were gonna do that they just woulda left Beckett in.

 

[The Frankman]

Boston fans, on behalf of the Mets fans I apologize. We started Andy Philips on this ricoculous hot streak 2 Saturdays ago. Don't blame your pitching, blame us.

 

[Fifty]

God dammit this game is frustrating. 4 innings in a row we end the inning with 2 men on base! Daniel Cabrera is just unhittable! I think he's almost done, so hopefully the jays can hit whoever comes out of the bullpen

 

[Desperado]

:lol Zambrano just hit a 3 run homer

astros are dying

 

[calder]

Cabrera has been good when he's needed to be tonight, a few times I thought the Jays were going to start putting some runs up against him.


*checks to see if I have any bosox relievers dressed in my yahoo leagues*
whew!

 

[Fifty]

Argh, nice error! This game makes me want to pull my hair out.

 

[Y2Kev]

A-Rod, we're up by a lot. You should be playing well.

He botched Moose's rhythm twice in his last two starts.

 

[Tedesco!]

Just to spread the Reds love... Reds tied it up, 2 all. A Red sweep of the Cardinals in underway!

 

[Fifty]

3 up, 3 down. The Jays fall to the mighty hand of CHRIS BRITTON--The Ugliest Man in the Majors

I would have preferred a blowout to this slow and painful death.

 

[Desperado]

HAY GUYS ZAMBRANO HAS A NO-HITTER THROUGH 6

YEAH, A NO-HITTER

 

[Y2Kev]

HAY GUYS ZAMBRANO HAS A NO-HITTER THROUGH 6

YEAH, A NO-HITTER

a WHAT?

 

[Desperado]

A NO-HITTER!

You know, when the opposing team doesn't have any hits? Yeah that!
