Time for Tex to choke as he has been for 2 weeks now

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Come on Tex. Double play right here.

He's facing a piece of garbage. Uehara makes Heathcliff Slocumb look like Mo Rivera.

[yankees228]

Wow, right down the middle.

[jacksonianmarch]

Choke you very much Tex. Well, ARod is up and the tying run is at 1st. I smell another choke.

 

From idiot Singleton. "Teixeira got good wood on that one, but hit it up the silo." Dumbass. He missed the ball and popped it up

[jacksonianmarch]

ARod overswinging as usual. Here comes a split for the K

Singleton is a good listen.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Come on Aroid strikeout just like you did on Wednesday against the Rays.

[jacksonianmarch]

That was strike 3. Whew

[jacksonianmarch]

ARODDDDD!!!!

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Home run wtf?

For the bulk of Singleton's career, that constituted "good wood". I just hope, for his wife's sake, that doesn't carry over into his retirement.

Reverse jinx worked!

[a700hitter]

Uehara --- lights out closer! He can nail the game down for the opposition every time!!!

[Station 13]

Hahaha wow LOLioles

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Uehara f***ing sucks.

[yankees228]

That was strike 3. Whew

 

That was even further inside than the bad call on strike one.

[a700hitter]

No it was a case of an AB between an all-time great slugger against a guy that will not even be a footnote in the game.

[jacksonianmarch]

well guys. Off to work. Have a good one

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I'll have a good one when the Orioles hit a walk off.

[a700hitter]

ARod was laughing because the pitch he took was a strike. Umps don't give calls like that to pieces of s*** like Uehara against an ARod. Umpire to rookie pitcher complaining about a call on Ted Williams: "Son, Mr. Williams will let you know when you throw a strike."

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

What are the chances they get a walk off against Rivera?

[a700hitter]

The Sox will characteristically drop 2 of 3 to Toronto. By the time the Sox face the Yanks' date=' they will be 8 games back and virtually eliminated[/quote']Remember this^

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Remember this^

 

Sucks when your right.

[a700hitter]

Sucks when your right.

It makes me miserable some times.

I get your point, but it really was a ball. Keep in mind that it isn't even as close as that link would make it seem, because they're showing a 24 inch strike zone, as opposed to the actual 17 inch strike zone.

 

According to A-Rod he was laughing because the entire O's dugout thought it was a strike, and they all almost jumped over the railing.

[yankees228]

Best part about the game might have been the way AJ looked. It wasn't great, but he does seem to be turning it around a bit.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

He's looking good against the O's. We'll put him to the test with a better offensive team.

[jacksonianmarch]

AJ looked very, very good. But his typical ******** was still there. A walk to lead off an inning that didnt score because he struck out 2 guys with a runner on 3rd. He hit a batter on 0-2 with nobody out who eventually scored without a hit. He gave up a homer to a guy who hadnt hit one all yr because he missed his spot by 2 feet. His stuff is so good that he gets away with a lot of s***. But his wildness, especially when it comes to leadoff hitters will not get by come playoff time. He was definitely impressive, but there is cause for concern

 

The other thing yesterdays big homers hid was the absolute abysmal RISP hitting. We left a boatload of runners on and still sucked at situational hitting. My hope is we can move Kearns back to 4th OFer tonight so Swisher can actually start for us. Kearns with RISP has been dreadful

[jacksonianmarch]

Why the f*** do you bat Gardner in front of a guy who isnt going to drive him in? It makes no sense. If you want to use Gardner at the bottom of the order, you need to have him followed by a guy who can drive him in or the top of the order.
