Get an elbow pad and stick out your arm.

 

honestly, he should do it

Nice one pitch out by Cora. Clutch.

[TheKilo]

Paps is insane...and you know what? I was at the game he blew the save..sitting in section 36 right above Coco...and it was HIS fault.. He took a tentative, circular route to the ball...He definitely should have had Blalock's gapper.

 

 

Blalock hit a shoulder high fastball. Not anyone's fault, Blalock just hit a tough pitch.

[Beckett95]

screw you Cora, swinging at the first pitch you bum

[CrespoBlows]

Well, we have no more Santana or Nathan to worry abuot, so I think Ortiz and Manny can do something big off of Rincon. It's late in the game and there's a lot of pressure on him right now. Papelbon is too f***ing intense to be disturbed by the pressure.

 

AHAH!

 

So you conceded that big hits are largely dependent on who is on the mound.

[Beckett95]

can either Ortiz or Manny untie this game please

[Youk Of The Nation]

Pitiful.

[Beckett95]

and theres your AL gold glove CF

 

that catch was ridiculous behind his head almost

[schillingouttheks]

KASJDBFKASDBFDKASJ! Can we PLEASE SCORE A f***ING RUN???

 

Nice catch by Hunter.

[db41]

I second that emotion. Tito should sit him down, have him look in the mirror, and make him say, "I'm Alex Cora. I'm Alex Cora."

[jsinger121]

just awful......i doubt we will see papelbon for another....they will need him for the other 2 games in this series.

[RedSoxRooter]

fast game. 10.5 in less than 3 hrs.

[DirtDog]

timlin coming in

[a700hitter]

WHo's next to take the hill?

[Beckett95]

6 pitch inning from our 2-3-4 hitters

[schillingouttheks]

AHAH!

Not really. I was just hoping it would play a part in getting a big hit this time around. I'm getting frustrated. Great game though.

 

EDIT: Actually, I guess it is largely dependent on that. It depends on who's hitting. For a guy like Cora it could work out like that, but not for a guy like Papi.

[Beckett95]

Timlin now pitching

 

LETS GO MIKEY welcome back of the DL

[DirtDog]

Sox need to take this game. It would be a huge moral boost. So many great performances today.

[TheKilo]

Let's go Timlin.

[jsinger121]

hopefully timlin won't show much rust

[db41]

6 pitch inning from our 2-3-4 hitters

I don't mind Papi and Manny being aggressive, but Cora on one pitch to lead off the inning? That's a case of whiskey.

[db41]

hopefully timlin won't show much rust

I'll take his typical inning-- O bb, 1k, 1 hit, 0 runs.

[jsinger121]

timlin showing good velocity so far

[CrespoBlows]

Not really. I was just hoping it would play a part in getting a big hit this time around. I'm getting frustrated. Great game though.

Not really. If David Ortiz can't hit a cutter, what makes you think he's going to be able to hit a cutter any time else?

 

Not to piss on Ortiz' accomplishment on Sunday, but he got an 86 mph fastball in his sweet spot. He should smash a pitch like that.

Or a shot of Jack if Kevin Millar is on your team....

[Youk Of The Nation]

Or straight wood alcohol if it's Bellhorn.

Rumor has it that Morgan Burkhart used to just punch himself in the nuts.

[TheKilo]

Youk = Gold Glove.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Youk = Gold Glove.

 

 

Duhhh.

[jsinger121]

i smell youk will win this game
