5/4 VS Anaheim.

[redsoxrules]

Excellent double play to end the inning

[Dipre]

f*** YEAH LESTER!!!!!

[Beaneater]

I'm foreseeing the words "hard-luck loser" in tomorrow's sports page.

 

Or not. Jon Lester, ladies and gentlemen!

[italstallianion]

It's like the calendar switching to May has had a drastic effect on Lester's performance.

[yankees228]

Fantastic decision by Pedroia.

[Palodios]

Giambi was in the middle of a long term contract, Ortiz right now can be dropped whenever they feel like it. When you go from being a guy like him to getting booed, and when he wants a new contract next year, he'll need to do something or will only get a minimum value contract, and that only buys a couple thousand chickens.

[Beaneater]

... that only buys a couple thousand chickens.

 

That's like two weeks' supply for Papi.

There is a difference between the two situations, but I really believe that Giambi didn't accept the assignment because he thought it was beneath him. I'd imagine Ortiz probably feels the same way, and I'm sure he believes that he'll start hitting eventually, making the minor league assignment unnecessary.

[YeAuldBroade]

Lester has kicked ass tonight, what a boost to the club.

 

And great play Pedroia.

That's like two weeks' supply of milk for Papi.

 

Fixed.

[RedSoxRooter]

OK, I'm 2 hours behind and just fired up the game so I don't know the score. But f*** yeah, they got a damn pitch count graphic finally!! This is like a dream come true for me!

I think Drew is going to break that graphic during this at-bat.

[Spudboy]

Ortiz on deck.

 

Time for redemption.

 

 

Drew is still s*** hot!

[Dojji]

Please Papi, at least get only yourself out. A GIDP would be murder. Just murder.

[Youk Of The Nation]

They'd better score at least two.

[SCM33]

THANK YOU FOR HOLDING HIM.....

[Dipre]

JD Drew is awesome.

 

Let's go Papi, come through for us, earn your cows which you breed in your underground tunnel which YOTN dug for you!

[SCM33]

If Ortiz doesnt come through.....oh boy, im gunna hold my ears shut.

[Beaneater]

Oh crap. Ortiz won't really hit into a triple play here, will he?

[DirtDog331724632256]

Papi is due for a bit hit!

[Dojji]

As fail as you could possibly fail big guy.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Wow. You have to be f***ing kidding me Ortiz.

[Spudboy]

Oh well.

[Dojji]

Seriously, why the heck was Ortiz even swinging there???????? LET HIM WALK YOU FFS!

[SCM33]

WOW....just WOW

[Dipre]

Jesus f***ing Christ.

[Youk Of The Nation]

The guy just threw 500 consecutive balls. Why swing?

[SCM33]

Enough of this s***, f*** him.....bench his ass, this team is below .500, and hes hitting under .150.....enough with the f***ing coddling....see ya later Ortiz....enough is enough.

[YeAuldBroade]

Please don't hit into a triple play, just strike out Papi - think of the team.

[Youk Of The Nation]

PH Lowell. PH Lowell. PH Lowell.
