April 3rd @ Texas

Good signs today from Schill and Lowell. Papelbon currently keeping the good run going.

[riverside sluggers]

that was a sick pitch for papelbon to get the K with

[a700hitter]

So far, Millar is 2 for 3 with a run scored and an RBI in his Oriole debut.

[RedSoxRooter]

Kev!!!!

[Sox fan in Tex]

This is great and sucks also. Here, the game isn't on the normal local Rangers channel. ESPN2 blacked out the game as well as MLB Extra Innings. Oh well, guess I will be watching a bunch of highlights from NESN online tonight.

[riverside sluggers]

um Foulke...

[stocker323]

Just got back from practice. Things looking excellent so far. Let's just hope Foulke doesn't make this closer than it needs to be.

[Sox fan in Tex]

Not another game one from Arlington like last year (Foulke blew the save). Surely we couldn't blow a five run lead with one out in the ninth.

[a700hitter]

Foulke hitting 86-87.

[riverside sluggers]

another amazing catch by Coco

 

again, um Foulke...

[a700hitter]

another bomb off Foulke, but foul

[riverside sluggers]

all pitches hit off foulke are going deep

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

Just wanted to say....Keith Foulke looks like crap....start thinking about Papelbon as the closer

 

Everything was hit hard....not impressed

[ORS]

Foulke's not looking so good. He needs that extra 3/4 mph on the heater to get the differential right for the change. He doesn't have it today. But, 7-3 win is now in the books. Good start.

[Sox fan in Tex]

Thank goodness.

[riverside sluggers]

good win, but troubling to see foulke of 2005 make an appearance. Importantly the Schilling of old made an appearance today

 

1-0 start

[a700hitter]

At 86-87, his location will have to be perfect, but when he is on his location is perfect.

Just keep papelbon in the rotation, Timlin will make a great closer, if Foulke keeps chokin up or doesn't get his groove back

[Varitek33]

Good game. Go Ortiz!!!

[jsinger121]

Troup on the radio thought the gun in texas was alittle fast and that foulke wasn't throwing as hard as it showed.

[Sox fan in Tex]

I know you guys can get the pitching stats anywhere, but I keep up with the Red Sox pitching numbers, so in my sig under "2006 Red Sox Pitching Report" you can find the pitching stats from the games, as well as sorted individual stats and batter-by-batter results for Foulke and Timlin. You may want to take a look at the "2005 Pitching Report" to see what it will begin to look like once we get some games logged.

[Teddyballgame10]

Keith foulk did not look good. If he is topping out at 86-87 we are in deep trouble. The Sox arnt going anywhere this year with that kind of Foulk I hope Theo has somthing in mind. On the good side they looked nice at the plate.

[Sox Fan on Cape]

A great game all around, told you Yeszir about the West Coast and breaking the the 5 game streak. I'm a little worried with Foulke. But all in all I'm a happy camper !

[YanksHater213]

Quitting on Foulke after one outing? <_>

[Sox fan in Tex]

I won't bash Foulke after today, but in defense of those who are, YanksHater213: They are bashing him after on full bad year and one bad outing.

[YanksHater213]

Yeah, I get that, but its just one outing. Everyone has a bad day. Wait till he has multiple in a row to bash him.

I feel your pain; i can look forward to that when they play baltimore this year! However you can watch "red sox in 2" (they replay the game, but cut it down to 2 hours--cutting out some non-important things) It will be on tonight at 12.00am EST and they don't black that out!

I have a feeling he doesn't get NESN down in Texas.

[Ray10]

Well I just finished watchin the game on mlb.tv which is the best purchase I have ever made in my life now I can see all the Sox games I want to. Well it was a good game Ortiz looked awesome like usual and Schilling looks like he might actually be 100% again and we all know what happened last time he was. Over all it was a great game and a great way to kick off the 2006 season.

[Sox fan in Tex]

Yeah, stocker is right. Maybe they will show the game in the early morning on ESPN2 and that won't be blacked out. I'd kill to get some of the special features on NESN. I know they were going to re-show the Sox game on NESN right after the postgame show ended. For now I rely on clips from NESN online.
