7/10 vs. Teahenzilla

[High Mileage]

Fun piece of trivia:

 

Jon Lester is one of only 3 Red Sox lefties to record 15 wins, 200 innings and 150 strikeouts in a season with an ERA under 3.50. Anyone know the other two?

 

Lefty Grove, and Babe Ruth...?

[Dutchy]

Casey Fossum?

 

in all seriousness, I assume one of them is Lefty Grove

 

Yup, one of them is Lefty Grove. The other one is the most famous lefty to ever play baseball.

[Dipre]

f*** Teahen.

Yup. Are you listening to the radio as well?

I said Babe Ruth.

[Spudboy]

I like Green's arm but have visions of Nomar when he makes throws like that. Close, though.

[High Mileage]

Yup. Are you listening to the radio as well?

 

No, our affiliate has local baseball on tonight. I'm about to head out and watch the game though...

[Dutchy]

I said Babe Ruth.

 

And I told you that you were correct

[Dipre]

What the f*** is Lester doing?

 

He needs to watch the baserunners!

[Spudboy]

Not lately.

 

No job= not much money= not much poon.

 

I hear ya bro. Unless you lower your standards dramatically. Which I do not endorse.

[High Mileage]

And I told you that you were correct

 

Yeah I saw we posted at almost the exact same time. Mark Teahen is now batting .667 against the Sox...

[Dipre]

I hear ya bro. Unless you lower your standards dramatically. Which I do not endorse.

 

That is a solid non-endorsement.

[BoSox21]

crazy, I still never think of Ruth as a pitcher in trivia questions

[Spudboy]

That is a solid non-endorsement.

 

Glad I could be of assistance.

well he pitched the majority of his time with the Sox.

[VA Sox Fan]

Alright...time for some OFFENSE!

That's what makes them good trivia questions

[Spudboy]

Yeah, about a century before our lives.

well its not like Bill Lee was a bad guess but looking back i should have guessed both of em.

[Spudboy]

Alright...time for some OFFENSE!

 

I second that motion.

[Dutchy]

well he pitched the majority of his time with the Sox.

 

I wonder if he kept a cabbage leaf under his hat when he pitched as well.

That's "above my head". What do you mean?

[Dipre]

f***, Olivo was definitely sniffing bunt if he got him on that one.

[Spudboy]

Racist.

 

I had to think about that. KKK?

Hey Coco, why doesn't your name appear in the list of connected people anymore?

[Dutchy]

That's "above my head". What do you mean?

 

When he was with the Yankees he'd keep a cabbage leaf inside his hat to keep him cool and between innings he'd change the leaf.
