April 14th vs. Anaheim

[schillingouttheks]

Well, last night was wonderful! Let's hope Schilling can continue his dominance against the weak-hitting Angels, and that the bats' hotness can carry over from last night into today. Carrasco can be a pest from time to time, but the Sox have to be patient and make him work. Let's get 'er done! Go Sox!

Im leaving soon!

[Youk Of The Nation]

Schilling kind of looks like George Wendt.

[v2freak]

I was gonna say Bruce Willis

[TheKilo]

Just win, f***ers.

[ORS]

Nice. Curt looks strong.

 

Now pound Carasco.

I hate the Fox game of the week. I hate it that they blackout other games and that FOX bought rights to every Saturday this season. I never get to watch the Red Sox. Instead I get (drum roll) Seattle vs. Texas.

Huh, the game appears to be on MLB.com. That's wonderful (until they realize my zip code... probably in 20 minutes).

[ORS]

No, they are showing the Fox coverage. I think they've adjusted to the complaints.

[TheKilo]

Ortiz is lucky he's not sitting on the bench right now. Maybe the missed call has rattled Carrasco?

No' date=' they are showing the Fox coverage. I think they've adjusted to the complaints.[/quote']

 

Again, wonderful. That was my biggest complaint for sure.

[TheKilo]

Man he's smooth with the glove.

[Rdsxmbnt]

schilling good so far

[ORS]

It will be nice when Manny's hot shots start finding holes. He's been spanking the ball, but he's been snakebit.

[TheKilo]

We want Mirabelli!

[ORS]

Tek and Coco: A baseball tragedy

[ORS]

McCarver: "Crisp is unique with the open to closed stance."

 

Yeah, that's unique. Only about half the league does that.

[TheKilo]

Coco Crisp works a walk? WTF?

 

Let's go Dusty.

[TheKilo]

Why is Crisp not on second?

[ORS]

Haha, suck it Molina. You weren't going to get him and now you gave him a base.

[TheKilo]

Nice job Pedroia. Couple of nice ABs for him the last two nights.

[CrespoBlows]

Wow.

 

Anyone see B.J. Ryan completely melt down in Toronto?

 

Doesn't look like we have to worry about them.

[ORS]

Did you guys know that major league hitters are good at hitting pitches in the middle of the plate? Where would we be without McCarver to tell us these things?

[TheKilo]

Swung at ball four.

[CrespoBlows]

"Turn him loose"

 

Score another point for McCarver.

 

CLUTCH TUFF GRIT!

[ORS]

Wow.

Didn't "see" it, but I noticed on Gameday. I have to worry. He's one of my closers. That's twice already this season.

No control. His velocity looked dimished, as well. I know he's in the low 90's, but he didn't touch it once in his appearance.
