When the Sox had the bases loaded with no outs in the 7th inning, with Youk and Big Papi up (got what I expected from Coco) I would have expected at least a run or 2 to come in–even the Grand Slam that Big Papi missed hitting by mere feet–but it was 3 up, 3 […]

The 2nd half of my Batterymates for your blog-reading pleasure. Again, make sure you tell ‘em Christine E. sent you…
Enjoy!

Josh Beckett’s goes on the DL for 2 weeks and you expect less–a little rusty, a couple miles off the fast ball–just some stuff a little..off….but there was absolutely nothing off about his pitching–going 7 strong and throwing 91 pitches, he limited the Tribe to 3 hits, 1 walk, and 2 runs, while striking out […]

As any blogger knows, trading links with blogs you read and respect is the thing to do–and the blogs on under “Batterymates” to the right are the best of the best–at least I think so…and since its my Blogroll–I guess that matters huh?
I offer you some of my Batterymates for your blog-reading pleasure–and make sure […]

The last inside the park home run for the Sox was hit by, ironically enough, Trot Nixon, who made his return to the Fens last night as part of the Cleveland Indians and was the recipient of many joyous cheers throughout the park…Trot made this momentous event happen against the Skanks in 2005–and back in […]

The fact that the Sox actually LOST to that piece of crap team, or the fact that now they have an off-day, and everyone in the ‘Nation gets to stew about it until 8:05pm tomorrow, when the Sox play one of the few teams who actually beat them in a series this year–the Rangers…CRAP!
As a […]

See? The Sox beat the Skanks and I suddenly feel SO much better–although there were times in last night game when I thought I was breaking out into hives–that is what you get when Batsh*t Julian pitches–lots of entertainment–but a greater hive potential…
But, fortunately, Julian pitched well again last night, on his 34th birthday no […]

While Tim Wakefield did not not have the brilliance he has has in his previous starts, as he struggled through 5 innings, giving six runs on nine hits while walking 5, the offense, once again, could not generate any kind of run support to even make this an interesting game…
And WHY…T…F is Giambi even allowed […]

It’s always fun to win 2 out of 2–even if it doesn’t happen very often–It usually seems to work out that the game that the Sox has the least chance of winning (like game 1 yesterday) is the game they win, and then the other game, which the Sox have a much better chance of […]

OK, maybe I was a bit hasty with the “ace” moniker, but based on the way Tim Wakefield has been pitching, I think it’s appropriate–despite no run support, Tim Wakefield goes out in every 5 days and keeps the Sox in the game–it’s not his fault they give him little or no run support. Unfortunately, […]
