Beyond (or in spite of) the pitcher battles, please start hitting the ball more often again.

 

Thanks.

[Cocos Disciples]

Baseball time soon. Rain is supposed to hold off for most of the game.

[Cocos Disciples]

That was strike three. f***ing miserable call. Good thing he got the pop-up the next pitch.

[Cocos Disciples]

Rough hop for Kotsay.

[Cocos Disciples]

thx lawrence

[Cocos Disciples]

Am I going to be JHBing it up tonight?

 

Huzzah for lucky DPs.

[ms_sox]

Nice DP indeed.

[Jasonbay44]

Lets get some runs.

That was literally right down the middle. Awful call.

 

Lets get the bats going.

[Cocos Disciples]

There's my AFL boy McLouth with the diving catch. I'll enjoy him in CF while it lasts...

[ms_sox]

Bay robbed of a good hit by a great catch.

[msubulldogs21]

Great catch. I thought that was a trap at first, but looks like he caught it now.

Nah, some people are here.

[Cocos Disciples]

That was a f***ing shot.

[msubulldogs21]

Soooooo close

[Jasonbay44]

That was ripped.

[Spudboy]

Almost a dinger for Ortiz.

[ms_sox]

Papi, we love you.

Now let's score him, guys.

[Cocos Disciples]

thx Kotsay

[ms_sox]

NEED MOAR HITS

[Cocos Disciples]

Snazzy grab, kid.

[msubulldogs21]

ARE YOU SERIOUS ELLSBURY

 

WOW

[Spudboy]

That's what speed CAN do for you.

[Cocos Disciples]

Beckett's solid through 3. Only 34 pitches.

[ms_sox]

Ellsbury makes me want to cry tears of joy.

[Cocos Disciples]

So do we pick up Varitek's option at this point? He's been better than expected with the SLG. I don't see Kottaras as a starter, but I'm for exploring the market first.

[Spudboy]

Beckett's solid through 3. Only 34 pitches.

 

It's early. Lowe has stymied the Sox order so far. Bats have to come alive after two nights of hibernation.

Is there any urgency? Can the FO wait? I see him back next year.
