Damn it Twinkies. Reminiscant of how the SOx lose. Keep that pitcher in nice and long.

[kbosox]

[kbosox]

[noonanberg]

THATTA BOY TEK

[yeszir]

Wow. I just turned the TV off too, evidently at a bad time.....

 

If we can win this game, and go to fenway up 2-0, it would be awesome.

[element1151]

3-3! Good 2 out hitting!

[kbosox]

TEK!!!!!!!

[RedSox24]

friggin tek clobbered that thing....lotys of little mental mistakes....

 

some nice fielding by don mattingly, er, I mean millar.

 

Pedro has got to do it now!

 

this innning is key!

[yeszir]

Ok, I can't make it much longer. I'll listen to this on the radio as I try to stop myself from falling asleep I guess.

[yagmaster]

Manny comes through of course! 4-3 Sox, now Pedro has to hold them again, get it to our bullpen.

[Beaneater]

Nice work, Petey. 3 runs and no extra-base hits through 7. Excellent. You're set up for the W. Now hit the showers.

 

Personal message for Tito: if we see Petey come out of the dugout for the 8th, I will personally hunt you down and... say unkind words to you. OK, I won't really even do that. But seriously, we've seen enough of Petey in the 8th inning to know that it's a bad idea to try to squeeze even one more measly K out of that arm. Get Timlin in. That's an order.

[Beaneater]

Thank you, Tito. I knew the threat of my wrathful unkind words would persuade your dulled intellect. Nice work in the 8th, Sox pen.

[Beaneater]

No one is here with me to exult in the fact that Cabrera just broke this game open. So I'll do the exulting for all of us.

 

 

.........

 

 

There. :thumbsup:

[nobeljeff]

Well, Beaneater, and all, sweet dreams! (of a World Series).

Let's sweep, rest everyone, and face a tired Yankmees or Twinkies team in ALCS. :thumbsup:

[mosox]

I still can't sleep. This was a great win. So many came up big. Tek (HR), Manny (sac fly on a great AB against KRod), Millar (defense, yes defense),Timlin, Myers, and Foulke, Cabrerra (3 RBI triple), even Tito managed a good game, inserting Roberts at the right time, and using the bullpen to perfection. But the biggest pat on the back goes to Pedro, who went out there and pitched a game that only he could pitch. I feel so good about this team. Coming home up 2-0.

[yeszir]

The only downside to this is that I may not go to the game on Saturday because there may be no game if the sox sweep. But I'd take it.

[sarasoxfan]

that was awesome--I am so tired and already at work. But I dont care about anything else, that was awesome.

 

Pedro stepped up. The whole team looks confident.

 

I am not sure what the stats are but in the last 6 games against the Angels plus these last two we have ripped them apart.

 

 

I thought they had a great bullpen, not so far they dont...not against us.

I know..I know...its not over until John Edwards' wife signs, but damn I love this team.

 

Damon, Orland, manny, do, tek, pedro...they just are all studs.

 

How about timlin...that loss must have hurt the angels a lot.

Back to boston and lest keep it going.

[elsrbueno]

I'm shocked that not one person here mentioned Pedro Martinez' velocity. Maybe it's because I listen to the radio (and they didn't mention it on TV), but Pedro his 95 on the radar gun...IN THE SEVENTH INNING!

 

Considering this is as hard as he's thrown in a while, I take that as a good sign. He seemed to be pitching very well (and if it wasn't for a defensive blunder by Cabrera/Ramirez, he may have only given up 1 run... who knows) and was the key to this game.

 

Yes, thanks to Tek and Manny we scored the necessary runs... But Pedro really battled (especially in the seventh) and kept us in the game. A well deserved win for Mr. Martinez.

 

I'm so excited. Not even the Yankees winning last night can get me down!

Honestly, when are the Sox gonna learn how to run the flippin bases. This is getting ridiculous. I've never seen a team make so many boneheaded decisions/plays on the basepaths. What makes it even worse was that Bellhorn was at second, the farthest base from home.

 

WAKE UP YOU A**HOLES

you guys are insane, i finished the game, walked to my girlfriends, went to bed, woke up at 7 am for class and then walked back home. how you guys stay up to post, that's beyond me.

 

in responce to the quotes i made:

 

i've always seen pedro hit 93-94. 95 was just pretty. he's been saving it, petey is by far my fav. pitcher. i'm glad he had a great outing considering i argued for over an hour with a girl that petey rocks. she says he sucks cus of his season and his attitude. dumb bitch doesn't know s*** about baseball, nor does she know petey.

 

post 2:

did anyone notice in the herald that it said OC got a 3 run double? i did, very uncool. it had the chance to be a in the park HR.

 

post 3:

bellhorn was trying to score off a single. i would have been that far off too. he was just trying to put some numbers up there for pedro. he might have been safe if he had not slipped. it happens, i'm not going to hate on him for it. i was more upset to see OC bunt for an out. he's not that bad of a hitter, he should have swung the bat.
