May 4th @ Cleveland

[RedSox24]

Lets win one tonight what do you say?

[yawkeyway]

We better win, Lowe owns cleveland:

G	GS	W	L	SV	CG	SHO	IP	H	R	ER	HR	BB	K	ERA	WHIP	BAA
24	3	4	1	8	1	0	53.2	39	17	14	4	12	31	2.35	0.95	.201	

 

Davis against Boston, on the other hand, not so great:

	G	GS	W	L	SV	CG	SHO	IP	H	R	ER	HR	BB	K	ERA	WHIP	BAA	
1	1	1	0	0	0	0	7.2	6	4	4	0	0	4	4.70	0.78	.207	

 

We've scored a lot of runs off of him in the past, so I hope itll continue. Sorry the stats are a little off, but I have yet to find a good way to post them.

Man i hope your right maybe we can break out of that huge slump maybe put up 25 hits and 16 runs

That would be alright, I guess. But it would feel to me like we were wasting all of our alloted runs for a month in one game. That wouldn't be good.

The sox need to absolutely shell Davis. He's had an ERA for each of the last 3 years, consistently. He was in single A in 2002.

 

Going from single A to the big leagues and facing the Red Sox in two years is a big jump. Hopefully he'll falter and we can win one finally. Don't forget, including this one, there are 3 games left in the series. We cans till take 3/4, a good series by any stretch of the imagination!

[RedSox24]

all they need are some good rallies so they have faith in their bats and their team

[RedSox24]

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CRESPO ISNT STARTING!~~~~~~~~~

[Tek04]

Yes hopefully the redsox score the runners that are on base this time

[yeszir]

I don't see how the woes could possibly continue. Think about it. 12 LOB last night, 18 a few weeks ago, its pathetic if you think about it. Our batters hit, and they showed that last year.

 

Mueller, Manny, Millar, Ortiz. Those players alone are enough to win games. We don't need to be begging for Trot and Nomar to come back. They need to snap out of it and start hitting NOW. Manny needs to stop being friendly with the media and fans, and he needs to start hitting. I'd rather have a cold and reserved manny who occasionally doesnt run out ground balls but hits .350 with 130 RBI than the Manny we see today who has a website and talks to reporters.

 

They better cheer me up during this game, thats all I can say.

[Tek04]

Orscillo or Remy said it was 13 LOB last night, but they could have been wrong because you are all saying 12.

[RedSox24]

i think they had more than 18 LOB last week it was just they went 0-18 with runners in scoring posittion that one game

[YanksHater213]

the hitting has to perform tonight, no question

[RedSox24]

HERE WE GO!!

[YanksHater213]

good move by terry putting bellhorn 2nd

 

his obp is twice his batting average, bad but good at the same time

[RedSox24]

A HIT!!

[yagmaster]

This is the most important game of the young season.

[YanksHater213]

disagree, even though its time to break out of this slump, the most important games by far were the ones we swept in Yankees Stadium

[roary]

Damn. One hit sox, two hits Guardians. Matt Lauten scores on Vizquel's double. What the hell. This is going to be one more of those games.

 

As far as importance of this one goes, it really isnt that important if you think about it. It's just a matter of momentum. I'd say the most important game was all of the ones in the yankee series at new york. It scared yankee fans, and gave us some confidence when playing against them.

 

Now vizquel on 3rd one out. Damn, whats going on Lowe.

[RedSox24]

OMG wtf they already scored

[ACL BoSox]

If we can just do what we did in the top of the first in a more timely fashion, we should be in for a win, if not, get out the brooms.

 

On the other side, Derek Lowe needs to pitch well tonight, his ERA is iffy, but he tends to get run support when he pitches. Lets hope so tonight!

[RedSox24]

too early to quit on them?

You beat me too it.

 

And Derek Lowe has TERRIBLE stats this year, I hadn't noticed. He has about 12 hits per 9 innings given up so far this year, and about 4 walks per game. He has a 4.98 ERA. He needs to return back to no-hitter form if he wants to be resigned for a lot of money by the sox.

[yeszir]

DAMN! Two runs already in the first, only one out! This is PATHETIC. Our O better take this game to break out of thei craptacularly fantastic slump. Wow. Our momentum couldn't be any lower now, it'll be a tough crawl to get back up to speed.

[RedSox24]

TAKE OUT LOWE, lowe is having a great start of a season, especially good since next year his contract hasnt been renewed

[YanksHater213]

anyone know when the last time the sox lead in a game

[RedSox24]

cant remember

This is true, the sox have scored 7,11,3,10 runs in his outings this season. They're gonna need more runs now, as they just got ANOTHER hit. Today is not his best start for sure.

 

This doesnt count as bleeding for someone to stop. Its a serious wound with gushing blood. We need one big ass ace bandage to fix this thing.

[RedSox24]

cool

The sox lead by one run in the top of the 1st on may 1st at Texas. I'm pretty sure that was our last lead. That's pretty pathetic if you ask me.
