10/18: Beckett Between Us And Elimination

[Dojji]

Whew.

 

Give Upton a quality pitch please!

[ORS]

Hah, thanks for hacking at ball 4.

[Youk Of The Nation]

WHERE DID THAT MISS

[Dojji]

WHERE DID THAT MISS

 

An inch outside. It really did miss.

[Dojji]

Challenge him, Becks.

 

You are Josh Beckett. This is the playoffs. You can beat the best.

[a700hitter]

Keep dropping hooks on him

[MANNYHOF24]

That was huge.

[PATS12RULE]

awesome

[Cocos Disciples]

Much better inning this time, less hard hit balls. Score runs?

[Dojji]

Awesome.

[riverside sluggers]

Beckett looking good last 2 innings

 

Now onto Big Game, more runs please

[a700hitter]

I wish Lowrie and Varitek would stick out their elbows a bit more.

[Dojji]

Rays fans have to be praying that Shields settles down. Boston is controlling this game right now. This game is not as close as the 2-1 score makes it look.

[Cocos Disciples]

Hrm, Cousins leaving the game with a jaw injury. This will change the strike zone.

[Dojji]

Hrm' date=' Cousins leaving the game with a jaw injury. This will change the strike zone.[/quote']

 

Kinda bad news. Now Shields might get a more generous zone.

[riverside sluggers]

the strike zone has changed for tonights game

[The Dustball]

I liked the tight zone. It put the pressure on Shields.

[Cocos Disciples]

Beckett's doing pretty well in his version of the epic "bloody oblique" Game 6.

[a700hitter]

What's taking so long? Does the ump need warmups?

[Dojji]

What's taking so long? Does the ump need warmups?

 

Gotta get ump's pads in the replacement umpire's size.

[ORS]

Texas is taking Mizzou out behind the woodshed. This team can play.

[a700hitter]

Gotta get ump's pads in the replacement umpire's size.

They wear a light chest protector, have a ball bag, shin guards, and a mask.

[NomahsHammSammich]

that ump getting hurt may have screwed the Sox....he was squeezing the s*** out of Shields and giving Beckett the corners.

 

What a clusterf*** this game has been. TBS screws up and these umps take 20 minutes to get another HP ump ready...hurry th f*** up already.

[a700hitter]

Is the new ump looking for his lucky ball strike indicator?

[MANNYHOF24]

Wow, this is a major embarrasment to MLB. How can they not have this contingency all sorted out before hand.

[riverside sluggers]

ah so the hp umpire will be the one that called shields game 1

[a700hitter]

This is ridiculous. The make the change faster in the regular season and they have less available umpires.

[Dojji]

What an umpire circus.

[Cocos Disciples]

No more LF ump.

[riverside sluggers]

15 minute delay for an umpire change lol
