July 24th @ Cleveland

[TheKilo]

Joe West sucks.

[schillingouttheks]

Yes, yes he does.

 

Coco batting 5th is the weirdest thing I've ever seen.

[jacksonianmarch]

Coco batting fifth is a joke.

[TheKilo]

Coco batting fifth is a joke.

 

Probably.

[TheKilo]

This is gonna be a long night, methinks.

[CrespoBlows]

That looked gone. What the f*** happened to that ball?

[schillingouttheks]

Matsuzaka is getting spanked. Looooooooooooooooooooong outs.

[MANNYHOF24]

Dicek is giving up rockets right now, this feels like one of those games where he battles in and out of trouble for a few innings but then finally gives it up in the like the 4th or 5th inning. This has happened quite a bit lately.

[Cocos Disciples]

When was the last time a game thread was started after the start time when we were still in the race?

[CrespoBlows]

BC Youkilis with the only two hits.

[Sox Fan In Indy]

It seems like Joe West umpires every freaking game I watch. And that's usually not a good thing.

[TheKilo]

So, Coco in the 5th spot = not the best idea.

[MANNYHOF24]

What a good idea it was to put Crisp in that 5th spot. Seriously though Crisp should be batting first or second right now, Ortiz being out really does screw with the lineup. When is he coming back anyways?

[Cocos Disciples]

Niiice Lowell 1-0.

Tomorrow.

 

Awful defense by Cleveland results in a run. I'm OK with that.

[MANNYHOF24]

Mike Lowell is the RBI f***ing machine!

[jacksonianmarch]

That should have been an out.

[MANNYHOF24]

That should have been an out.

 

Really??

[TheKilo]

That should have been an out.

 

No s***.

 

Go watch your team beat the s*** out of Scott Elarton.

[TheKilo]

Daisuke dancing between raindrops all night.

[ORS]

No s***.

 

Go watch your team beat the s*** out of Scott Elarton.

Why? He seems to love his Tokyo Rose role so much.

[schillingouttheks]

It's partly my fault because I claimed rights to the thread, but I never got around to my computer until after Kilo had started it.

[schillingouttheks]

Sabathia is giving Drew absolute fits.

[schillingouttheks]

Alrighty. Even though he's thrown a shutout, Matsuzaka has been hit pretty hard at times tonight. Oh well. I'll take it. Okajima then Papelbon to hold the 1-run lead? Yes please.

 

Insurance would be nice though.

[ThirdBase]

14! Way to go Lugo!

[schillingouttheks]

I love this team. Paps for the ninth. Some insurance would be nice though.

[RedSoxRooter]

Wow. A two page game thread in the 9th?????

 

Anyway, great game so far. I'm really not looking forward to Paps though. No heart attack saves please. Not against this team.

 

Please?

[schillingouttheks]

I'm absolutely looking forward to Paps. Unlike last time, he pitched recently and in that outing he shook off the rust and dominated Thome and Konerko.

 

I happen to think he'll be money this time around.

[Cocos Disciples]

Wow, f*** this. NESN stops working in the 9th. Every other channel works except the one I'm watching. f***.

[schillingouttheks]

Wow' date=' f*** this. NESN stops working in the 9th. Every other channel works except the one I'm watching. f***.[/quote']

 

Huh? It's gotta be you. NESN HD is working fine for me. Are you watching HD?
