10/19: Lester On The Hill For All The Marbles!

[Cocos Disciples]

The last stand of the 2008 Boston Red Sox, redux.

 

Why not?

[Dojji]

Why does there need to be fault?

 

The better team is about to lose.

[MANNYHOF24]

Tek against anyone is never the best option.

 

I can't believe a baseball team has cheerleaders. Talk about embarrassment.

 

Who is a better option?

[Cocos Disciples]

Who is a better option?

 

My mother.

 

EDIT: If Price stays in for Tek, you let him hit. But I'd guess Balfour comes in before then.

[Dojji]

Who is a better option?

 

 

Vtek will be batting from the right side. Lowrie PH's for Kotsay we can line up 3 righties against Price. That's a fighting chance I guess.

 

(if you want to line up theD for a Lowrie switch for Kotsay in the event of a tie, move Jed to third and Youk to first)

[silvercreekcc2006]

Need a crooked number, or it's see ya in Ft Myers

[NomahsHammSammich]

Well Bay/Kotsay/Tek? I see a 1, 2, 3 inning coming. I will be s***ing the TV off before the Rays celebrate. Congrats to the 2008 AL Champion Tampa Bay Rays. They will smoke Philly.

 

We need to get a real catcher, sign Teixiera, and perhaps trade for Peavy or sign a #3 type pitcher.. We will be back.

 

The Sox fought like Champs.

Yeah' date=' replay confirms he went.[/quote']

 

It's only my opinion, but I don't think he called that based on the swing. He'd have checked with third. He was calling it a stike all the way. It was not.

The better team is about to lose.

 

The Red Sox, as currently constructed, are about on par with the Tampa Bay Rays.

 

100% healthy, I agree with you. But right now, I won't.

No. Look at it again. Ump points at him and calls it. That's a swinging strike.

[soxfan17881]

Is Caray talking about games or runs? These guys blow.

[Cocos Disciples]

I think he called it swinging. That's what Gameday says at least.

[silvercreekcc2006]

Hate to mention it, but Manny might have come in handy. Sorry.

with price in the rotation, I dont think you can make that assumption. Also, consider that Upton and Longoria missed significant time with injury. Upton especially. We are seeing what he can do when his shoulder isnt hurting.

 

BTW, Bay went way far

[Cocos Disciples]

Looked like he went there too. 3-2 count, let's get some life.

[TheKilo]

The head of the bat went around on Drew's AB. It was a swing.

 

Bay just got away with one.

[Dojji]

Bay has come in handy in this series though, and we can only have one or the other.

[Cocos Disciples]

Leadoff walk. Tying run at the plate. Not over yet.

[silvercreekcc2006]

OK. A runner.

A happy and healthy manny puts this team over the top . A pissed off Manny does nothing for you.

 

BTW, the sox got a lucky break

Price wasn't in the rotation.

 

Longoria and Upton had otherworldy series.

 

And the Sox still got it to Game 7.

[Dojji]

PINCH HIT FOR KOTSAY OMG!!!! AAARRRGGGHHH!

 

9TH INNING OF GAME SEVEN!!!

I guess, but you know what I mean...:dunno:

[jacksonianmarch]

Leaving Kotsay in? Really?

[Cocos Disciples]

Not a fan of the bunt.

[TheKilo]

PINCH HIT FOR KOTSAY OMG!!!! AAARRRGGGHHH!

 

9TH INNING OF GAME SEVEN!!!

 

With who? "I've hit .220 since August" Sean Casey?

[Cocos Disciples]

Save your bench for Varitek and Cora.

[Dojji]

I guess' date=' but you know what I mean...:dunno:[/quote']

 

I hear ya, but remember, Manny didn't make it this far with his new team.

[Cocos Disciples]

2-2. Work it.

[jacksonianmarch]

That rookie moment you mentioned....
