Weather getting better at Fenway Park

Two good things are happening at Fenway Park right now.

 

1. They're playing Thunder Road on the public address system.

 

2. It's not raining. Looks like they will start on time, although the tarp is still down.

[Spudboy]

It's been raining for about two hours here. Now it's really coming down.

Glad you aren't at Fenway.

[Spudboy]

I'm glad I'm not there either.

 

I'd be soaked.

Rain delay at Fenway Park

The rain has returned and the tarp is down. The game will not start on time.

 

We'll keep you posted here.

 

***************

 

Complete drag and a downer. Was looking forward to a normal start time. Oh well.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Raining over here in Miami as well. I hate rain.

[VA Sox Fan]

Overcast here, but no rain.

When I lived in Miami it rained twice a day.

 

Once on the way to work, once on the way home from work.

 

Stupid me. I thought I'd be able to ride my motorcycles all year long.

 

NOT.

Hahahahahahaha!

[WhiskeyBreath]

They haven't given a start time have they?

[WhiskeyBreath]

This rain delay is turning out to be more entertaining than actually watching the team lately. I don't mind having to watch Heidi

[VA Sox Fan]

They haven't given a start time have they?

 

Not yet.

[WhiskeyBreath]

I expect them to delay this game as long as possible. They gotta sell a lot of hot dogs and $8 beers to make up for the money that they won't be making during the post season.

New game time for Red Sox: 3:15 p.m.

The tarp is coming off and the Sox are saying the game will start at 3:15 p.m.

[WhiskeyBreath]

Buchholz is leaving way too many pitches up in the zone, especially his slider.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I don't know if anyone is still watching but the Sox still don't have a hit:thumbdown

[Spudboy]

I'm watching.

I am. It would be very nice to get a hit this inning. Nice defensive plays so far.

[VA Sox Fan]

Way to go PAPI!! 3B!!

[VA Sox Fan]

That was quick! Adrian! 1-0

[WhiskeyBreath]

Ortiz triple? http://tbhforums.com/images/smilies/aimshocked.gif

[Spudboy]

Papi with the triple!

 

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

 

There goes the no-no.

 

Beltre with the RBI single.

 

1-0 Sox.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Looks like we got a hit

[WhiskeyBreath]

You could really tell he wanted that. The big guy was motoring all the way.

Yeah, my face looked like that too. Haha!

[Spudboy]

The only other "Big Guy" I enjoy watching run (among Boston Athletes) is Vince.

 

That guy can motor.

[Spudboy]

Hall!

 

3-0.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Hall!!!
