Ole Andy still has plenty left doesn't he? I really enjoy watching these two teams play each other.
Now if we could get rid of Morgan and Phillips we will be fine
Ellsbury straight steals home!
How does Petitte not check the runner at 3B?
Why ain't Posada and Berroa(3b) talkin'?
What in the world was Berroa watching while the runner on his bag straight steals home?
PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!!

She's the queen of the obvious. It's like having an average fan tell you what they saw and passing it off as analysis? I heard her once last year and thought the same.quote:Originally posted by zombywoof:

You want her back? She's from Beantown anyway..LOL....Man, she's pathetic...Take her back already!!!!
Remember Suzyn when "Rawjah" came back to rescue the Yankees? Here's the clip:

zomby,
"Ellsbury straight steals home!"
It's kind of amazing to me to watch this game with names like Petitte on the mound and Posada behind the plate - gamed tied 1-1 - and see that steal.
Red Sox sweep the Yankees!

Unbelievable, MN-Mom...What more can you say.
And the young Michael Bowden pitching 2 perfect innings.
And striking out Jeter! What a thrill!!!!!!
Bowden is apparently going back to his AAA club tomorrow, but I'm sure he'll be back up. Nice kid, inspirational story. I wish him the best.

The Sox also have a young pitcher by the name of Bard just about ready to arrive in the bigs
.
Bard?
Billy the Bard?
I'm familiar with some of his stuff...it's As You Like It!
He certainly won't be Much Ado About Nothing , unless of course he has a Comedy of Errors behind him!

I am talking about Dan Bard out of North Carolina
.
Oh that Bard.
Oh that Bard.
Jones, Bowden, Bard ...... Look at all the pitching even though DiceK is resting and Smoltz is ramping up. And the Sox just reacquired Kason Gabbard from the Rangers. Don't forget in the minors is a prospect who's already pitching a MLB no-hitter in Buckholtz. There's also the Japanese kid Tazawa. Why the Sox don't bundle some prospects for Teagarden or Saltamaccia is beyond me.

At this point I have no reason to second guess Theo's thinking

Gee, what half a billion bucks can't buy...
The next Mastercard commercial:
...overweight disappointing lefty ,161 million
...hometown forgetting underachieving first baseman, 180 million
....surly third baseman who shoots up, lies, and cheats on his wife, but signs contract on the date the Mitchell report is released, 275 million
....buying a pennant, priceless, we think-we'll call the Red Sox and get back to you on that.

A Red Sox fan liked to amuse himself by scaring every Yankees fan he saw strutting down the street in an obnoxious NY pinstripe shirt. He would swerve his van as if to hit them, then swerve back just missing them.
One day, while driving along, he saw a priest. He thought he would do a good deed, so he pulled over and asked the priest, "Where are you going, Father?" "I'm going to give Mass at St. Francis church, about two miles down the road," replied the priest. "Climb in, Father. I'll give you a lift!" The priest climbed into the passenger seat, and they continued down the road.
Suddenly, the driver saw a Yankees fan walking down the road, and he instinctively swerved as if to hit him. But, as usual, he swerved back onto the road just in time. Even though he was certain that he had missed the guy, he still heard a loud THUD. Not knowing where the noise came from, he glanced in his mirrors but still didn't see anything.
He then remembered the priest, and he turned to the priest and said, "Sorry, Father, I almost hit that Yankees fan."
"That's OK," replied the priest, "I got him with the door."

I care. My son cares he has practice Saturday and can't go.
Glad to know we're not the only ones who have forfeited Sox tix for practice. Last summer, my son was practicing for 13YO Babe Ruth All-Stars and positions hadn't been solidified yet. He was hoping to play 2B tho. He received 4 Sox tix (don't recall opponent) for having helped a neighbor out (fed his cat everyday while on vacation).
But when we saw the date, my son immediately said "I can't go; I don't want someone else to practice at 2B and catch up!". My wife and daughter were VERY unhappy w/ this decision, but I fully supported it. He ended up earning 2B and started every game there and played 5+ innings each game.
As it turned out, I later mentioned it to the coach and he said "Oh, you should've gone!". But who knows? If the other second baseman had a really great practice that day, my son might not have gotten the opportunity that he'd worked so hard for a few weeks of practice.
My wife and daughter got over it, and my son has another lifelong good baseball memory. I'll take THAT over attending a pro game any day.
Because I'm a loving, caring dad who would never tease his kid, I sent him several pictures from Fenway via cell phone. Poor kid. His sister did the same thing to him from the Super Bowl.
