5/17 vs. Milwaukee Brewers - Game 1

[Jayhawk Bill]

Leadoff walk on 5 pitches. Nothing close' date=' one grooved FB at 3-0. He really kind of sucks.[/quote']

 

Daisuke Matsuzaka doesn't suck--he's 6-0.

 

He does aggravate cardiac conditions.

Hmmmm...a 2-1-3 inning for Matsuzaka.

 

Edit: Hey, VA Sox Fan, how'd you like the way I quoted your lineups posts two posts before you made it?

[VA Sox Fan]

Thanks for the lineups' date=' VA Sox Fan! [/quote']

 

No problem and opps! Can't delete my mistake thread. Will have to be done by a mod.

 

Sorry.

[The Dustball]

He's throwing pretty much all fastballs right now. 12 of his 13 pitches have been FB's.

[The Prodigy]

Anyone think Ells is gonna go yard today??

[ORS]

Anyone think Ells is gonna go yard today??

I'll take the under.

[Jayhawk Bill]

Anyone think Ells is gonna go yard today??

 

No.

 

I also don't think that, individually, Manny, Papi, Youk, Prince Fielder or Ryan Braun will go yard...but I think that somebody will.

[The Dustball]

Wow it might be time for the mute button already. Thanks to McCarver I now know that Manny cannot climb the green monster. Thanks Timmy

[The Prodigy]

ouch

[The Prodigy]

McCarver is just a dumbass he likes to hear his own voice

[The Prodigy]

ortiz you fatty

[ORS]

JD, I won't call you a china doll if you do something big here. For like, at least a month, or so.

[ORS]

That should be good for a week, maybe longer.

[The Dustball]

Varitek can't get it done. Luckily, they made Suppan work pretty hard, throwing 31 pitches, hopefully helping us get into the Brewer's pen early and tire them out.

[The Prodigy]

What a great effort from JD!!!

[Jayhawk Bill]

That should be good for a week' date=' maybe longer.[/quote']

 

Week up?

 

Lousy play in RF by Drew to allow the ground-rule double.

[Jayhawk Bill]

Not a bad throw by Matsuzaka to get Hart.

 

Dice-K may spend too many pitches playing the edges of the corners of the strike zone, but the guy can field. I remember Jim Kaat...he's better than Kaat, IMHO.

[The Dustball]

Nice job working out of it Dice-K. Now the lineup needs to keep working Suppan and score some runs.

[The Dustball]

While i like that Lugo is acutally batting above .200 this year, it really seems that he has NO power. 0 HR in 124 at bats this season. No idea how the guy hit 8 homers last year.

[Jayhawk Bill]

Ellsbury puts on a bunting clinic. Lesson: run like hell.

[Jayhawk Bill]

I like home runs.

[The Prodigy]

Ortiz puts on a show= about god damn time he gets a fire lit under his ass

[The Dustball]

:ortiz: Hell Yes. I didn't think that had a chance of getting over the wall. I'll take it. 4-0

[The Prodigy]

great catch

[Jayhawk Bill]

great catch

 

Concur: Weeks had to understand that it was his to catch, sprint over from a shaded-to-left second baseman's position, and the catch the ball while sliding.

 

Great replay.
