4/26 @ Toronto

[Lester82]

I love that Josh Buckett / Bombs Away Josh is still called the Red Sox ace - not saying anyone here keeps uttering it, just that the media often will call him that to this day.

 

As soon as Lester gets fully past his usual slow start, he will reinforce the true acehood of this team that he holds.

Beltre flailing away

 

yeah he f***ing sucks. he should be 3 for 3 with 10 RBI's

 

1 for 3 with 2 RBI's is useless

[redsoxrules]

oh f*** , heart of the order comming up for toronto

I'd expect him to be as good as Varitek.

[redsoxrules]

Nice going beckett

[ORS]

Beltre isn't the problem in this game. The problem just left for a, likely, better pitcher, Scott Atchison.

[Northern Star]

Goddamn Beckett. My favorite player, and he's terrible.

[Lester82]

Josh Beckett is simply an overrated pitcher. He's had one truely great (" ace ") season with the Red Sox. Of course, 2007.

 

The worst though that I remember was his 2006 year.

[a700hitter]

Bill Hall is useless

[Lester82]

Enjoy the contract extension though, Beckett. I can see why this guy doesn't head to free agency... he's a better businessman than consistent pitcher.

[transcam21]

2 hours, 4 innings, and 16 runs.

 

Awful

[italstallianion]

If only Joe West was umpiring this game.

[jacksonianmarch]

all is well, Scott Schoeneweis is in the pen

[jacksonianmarch]

wow, he swung

[jacksonianmarch]

Red Sox get a break after getting jobbed in inning #1

[Jasonbay44]

This game is starting to remind me of the game vs Texas a few years ago. The game were the Sox won something like 19-17.

[Jasonbay44]

Smart managing by Francona, every pitcher is getting rocked so waste Atchison and Schoeneweis early.

It doesnt hurt that all pitchers involved in this game were a big bucket o' suck. Beckett has absolutely nothing. It's either mechanical or injury. I have never seen him top out at 94 and sit 90-91, except when he pitched with that ripped oblique

[a700hitter]

What a comfort having McDonald up in a key spot!

[TedWilliams101]

Just got home and McDONALDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

WTF happened this game. Holy crap.

[jacksonianmarch]

I smell a Red Sock 9th inning win, 15-14, on a Darnell McDonald 2 run homer. Papelbon will promptly give up 3 singles, then strike out the side after starting each hitter 3-0.

I can totally see that happening

[Spudboy]

What a comfort having McDonald up in a key spot!

 

I am at one with the universe. Nothing matters.

[Jasonbay44]

Scutaro!

[jacksonianmarch]

The sox are gonna take this one now. Even with how bad they have been, you just cannot give them THAT many runs and opportunities without paying for it. Toronto absolutely and totally sucks

[TedWilliams101]

So what happened with Beckett, did he just not have anything tonight?

[ORS]

Wow, just saw Melky on a highlight on BBTN. Did he spend the entire winter eating bacon and marshmallow sandwiches?

[redsoxrules]

So what happened with Beckett' date=' did he just not have anything tonight?[/quote']

[Spudboy]
