June 1st vs. New York

[Cocos Disciples]

Lowell made a great play there.

[Thumper]

Good eye Papi 1-0 pitch coming.

[Thumper]

Good walk.

 

Now Manny can get us a nice early two shot.

[HeadOfSoxNation]

Has Lowell been moved up to 5th at all this year? I'd much rather have him up in this situation than Drew.

[Thumper]

This is where Drew shows he's truely good..

[Thumper]

Has Lowell been moved up to 5th at all this year? I'd much rather have him up in this situation than Drew.

 

Why? Drew's a left handed hitter. It's better to have him in this situation than Lowell really.

[HeadOfSoxNation]

Why? Drew's a left handed hitter. It's better to have him in this situation than Lowell really.

 

...because Drew is 17 of his last 117...

 

I'd rather have Lowell up without a bat in his hand.

[Thumper]

Well here we are, bases loaded, two outs, Mike Lowell for the clutch.

[Thumper]

Only the first inning. We've got a ways to go.

[riverside sluggers]

While Lowells bat has been hot, I wouldve much rather liked seeing Hinske with his good #s agaisnt Wang

[TedWilliams101]

I'm telling you, Lugo and JD Drew should be dropped down in the lineup.

 

Lets go Wake. And please give him some support, guys, no more leaving the bases load!

I wasn't just talking about this EXACT situation in particular...I just mean protecting Manny and batting in the 5 hole in general. It just seems like, with the ridiculous slump that Drew is in, he might benefit from less pressure hitting down in the lineup.

[riverside sluggers]

well thats ********, nesn came back to the game after arod was announced

[HeadOfSoxNation]

Is Thumper on pace to set the record for most useless posts in a gamethread? He posted that Ortiz was going to be receiving a 1-0 pitch...

I know I was just commenting on Hinske being 11 for 19 against Wang, you dont keep these numbers on the bench for a guy whos just now 3 for 19. I wasnt referring to the 5 hole predicament

[TedWilliams101]

That pitch to strike out Posada was just NASTY!

Gotcha. Good call. I didn't realize Hinske's numbers were that nasty against Wang.

[Cocos Disciples]

Cano-no. 2-0.

[TedWilliams101]

WTF Wake. Come on. You know you don't get enough run support to give up runs!

[Thumper]

I wanna smack that bitch who picked up the ball and cheered.

[TedWilliams101]

Come on Wake. Come on.

[riverside sluggers]

Wake's pitches are dead center this inning

[Thumper]

I hope we don't have to start the bullpen THIS early.

[Thumper]

Wake what are you doing?!

[kyahbean]

Uggghhhhhh

[TedWilliams101]

Wakefield can't find the plate. Come on.

[Cocos Disciples]

2 straight walks. Sacks full for Damon. Ugh.

[HeadOfSoxNation]

The Sox'll score 5 runs this game...we've gotta limit the inevitable damage from this inning...

[Cocos Disciples]

3 straight walks. 3-0.

[TedWilliams101]

Get Snyder ready.
