time to put up or shut up. lets go uncle trot!

[jsinger121]

come on Trot

[SchillingIsTheNatural]

Mike Lowell just can't buy a homer at Fenway haha....I'll gladly take the doubles though

[example1]

I love to see Papelbon warming up in the pen. Let's go trot.

[a700hitter]

Rally, Rally.

[TheKilo]

If AGonz is up (and I think he is) he needs to lay another one down.

[BeanTown33]

nixon on with a walk. all we need is a single...

 

the rays gotta be running out of pitchers soon, no?

[example1]

They certainly COULD have sacrificed there, but they went with power instead and drew a walk.

 

It's similar to the Moneyball philosophy, but I think the sox practice POWERBALL, which is the philosophy of intimidating people with your potential power and drawing walks. Good stuff Christopher Trotman Nixon.

[example1]

It's stern, I believe, but yes, bunt.

[ACL BoSox]

now batting Canadian All-Star Adam Stern

[yankeessuck013]

f***...lead runner?

[TheKilo]

That....was pretty weak.

[ACL BoSox]

bad bunt... or good fielding?

 

either way, no advance

[example1]

Lowell is slowell

[a700hitter]

JT should PH

[yankeessuck013]

lets go a-gonz

[TheKilo]

Let's go Gonzo.

[ACL BoSox]

Lowell is slowell

 

it doesn't help when the other team knows your bunting

[example1]

must be a bad bunt over good fielding. It was very routine. Loretta has to be more aggressive taking his lead when that play is on. especially when he sees the 3rd baseman coming home. He should know that at worst it is a footrace with the SS to 3rd and there likely isn't anyone covering 2nd since the 1B was charging too. Oh well..

[ACL BoSox]

come on gonzo, I wanna see flashes of 2003!

[example1]

it doesn't help when the other team knows your bunting

 

Absolutely does not help that they know; that being said, he was out by a country mile.

[example1]

Doh! come on Youk

[jsinger121]

this will be a pathetic squander if we don't score

[ACL BoSox]

Youks the man

[example1]

hell yeah YOUK!!!!

[yankeessuck013]

Youuuuuuuuuuuk

[BeanTown33]

Yooooooouuuuuuuuuuk

[ORS]

You just can't give up an out when the guy on deck is an out making machine......Youk saves Tito's ass though. Atta boy YOUK!!!!

[TheKilo]

Word to that, Kevin Youkilis.

[riverside sluggers]

again I happily chant Yoooooouuuk

 

He's really having a great start
