7/9 v. Mark Teahen

[High Mileage]

Well, I'm personally just hoping we don't get no hit in this series. Our offense is even worse than it was last year, and your pitching is even better, so I'm praying at this point. If we can make it through the first three games without getting no-hit, then I'll pray we don't get swept. I'm hoping we can win at least one before Sunday, because I don't like Bruce Chen's chances against Josh Beckett. Anyways, hope it's cool for the Royals fan to start a game thread, I think I did last year but I'm not sure...

 

 

ROYALS

Luke Hochevar (4-3, 5.08): battled to a victory Saturday against the Chicago White Sox, allowing four runs in six innings of a 6-4 win. The former No. 1 overall draft pick has been showing signs of progress lately, going 4-1 with a 3.40 ERA in his last six starts. He faced Boston twice last year, going 0-2 with a 6.94 ERA and 9 walks in 11.2 innings. His only appearance at Fenway Park came in a 7-0 loss opposite Jon Lester's no-hitter on May 19, 2008. The Royals are 7-14 since June 17, and their offense has average 3.2 runs in that span.

 

RED SOX

Brad Penny (6-3, 4.67 ERA): has just 1 win in his last 5 starts despite a 2.20 ERA over that span. He has allowed 2 runs and 6 hits in 6 innings in each of his last 2 outings, but is 0-1 in those games. The only time Penny faced the Royals, he allowed 3 runs in 7 innings of the Dodgers' 3-1 loss on June 15, 2005.

No problem, I made the same mistake last night and they didn't kill me... yet. I just wouldn't make a habit of it.

It's just what he is.

[The_Destroyah]

I think starting the game thread should be a privilege handed to someone, like throwing out the first pitch, therfore Gom shall never qualify...

[Paradisecity]

Wait so if a new poster accidentally broke the "game thread code" and then the sox won, wouldn't you superstitious people out there think that another person breaking said code would be a good thing?

They're already too set in their superstitious ways. I bet that somehow in their heads, the fact that the Red Sox only won by 1 run meant that it was bad luck and if MSU started the thread the game would have been a blowout and the Yankees would have lost.

 

I know, because I think the same demented way.
