…when I said I would be perfectly OK with the Sox taking 2 of 3 from the Skanks. It should have been a sweep. I wanted a sweep, and I know that probably everyone in the Nation wanted a sweep too…But, alas, there was not sweep, so we have to be happy with 2 out […]

Honestly, the 4th inning is becoming Daisuke’s nemesis–remember the weirdo inning where he walked a bunch of people in the 2-1 loss against Toronto last week? That was the 4th inning too…
So here is how the 4th inning of THIS game played out….walk, walk, walk, single (1st run scores) strikeout, pop out, single (two more […]

In my in-game blog during the Friday nite Skankees game, a potentially game-winning situation came up for Wily Mo, which he was unable to capitalize on–But last night, in a similar situation, Wily Mo Pena did what he could not do last Friday–hit his 3rd career Grand Slam to win the game…
With that grand slam, […]

I don’t think I need to tell you that the 2 games against Toronto did nothing for the migraine that ravaged my brain for about 36 hours…Fortunately, the Skankees going 0-5 on their road trip, and being AT THE BOTTOM of the AL East Standings, as well as the spectacular win last night, did more […]

At work, I have a calendar on the wall (right next to the picture of ‘Tek giving A-Fraud a catcher’s mitt sandwich) of the 2007 Red Sox Schedule. And for every game, I put a red dot for a win, and a black dot for a loss. Can I just tell you how freakin COOL […]

When talking about Schilling in the YES Pitching profile: “Preperation”–spelled wrong–morons–have I mentioned I cannot STAND the YES Network??
Petttittte hits Youk with a pitch and then walks Big Papi on 4 pitches…what’s up with THAT? Too bad Manny did a GIDP. My motto is–if you are going to make an out–do it solo–don’t take someone […]

When the match up for yesterday was announced, there was a collective “Ugh” that ran though Red Sox Nation–I heard it….As I said to someone the other day, unless the reverse lock happens, there in no way Wacky Julian Tavarez is going to beat Toronto ace (and really good pitcher) Roy Halladay. NEVER…
Well, thanks to […]

So, once again Daisuke is good enough to win–doing even better than his last game against Seattle. This time he struck out 10 in 6 innings of 105 pitch ball, 68 for strikes, and only gave up 2 runs–But scary-looking Gustavo Chasin only gave up the 1 run on a home run by Wily Mo, […]

I know we still have one more game to play to finish out this series–but its not until freaking AUGUST–the world could be over by August, hell, I’ll be MARRIED by August! So I think we can call this a sweep and move on.
I have not seen the Angels play this poorly in a VERY […]

While I do live smack dab in the middle of the Yankeeland, there is still a decent contingent of Red Sox fans–although I would say the breakdown is probably 45% Skankee, 30% Phillies, 15% Red Sox and 10% Anybody Else. Case in point. For nearly 20 years the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Red Barons (the Phillies AAA Club) […]
