8/8 vs Texas

[Station 13]

Middlebrooks took a good pitch to clean out.

Beckett is just getting away with murder right now...everybody has to have some good fortune sometime though. I can't imagine him getting away with this to much longer. Sox have got to post up some runs and put some distance between them and the Rangers today.

[jung]

So much for getting away with murder. Luckily, nobody on base for that dinger

[jung]

This was only a matter of time today. Hamilton cleans out 89 mph like it was nothing....because....it is nothing.

[SemperFi Sox]

f*** beckett

[jung]

Without that curve ball....Beckett would have been crunched to the tune of double digits today. Did you ever think you would see the day when Beckett was being bailed out by a curve ball....then again, 6 runs in 4 and 2/3 innings is not exactly getting bailed out.

[a700hitter]

Same old story--- no pitching. There is no way that this team has enough pitching to go on any sort of run.

[kapsis21]

beckett, lackey need to get the hell outa here..

Salty needs to be traded straight up to Nationals maybe for Lannan or Detwiler.. they need a potent bat.

[Thunder]

Hey! Oswalt's coming in! He sucks! Go Ciriaco! Assuming everyone else gets on...

[Bellhorn04]

Roy Ass-walt...please can we do some damage to this guy.

[kapsis21]

watch him plow through our offense now..

[a700hitter]

Beckett just stinks.

[NativeBostonian]

Ace no more.

Here in Texas, there is a special with Papa John's pizza where you get half off on your order when the Rangers score more 7 or more runs in a game. At work, pizza is ordered from Papa John's Atleast once per week.

 

Thanks for the pizza Josh! :thumbsup:

Papa Johns sucks.

Papa Johns sucks.

 

^s*** nobody says

[kapsis21]

watch clayton rock them rangers now..

[DocHolliday]

Im glad his ass got booed off the field. All he has to do is go out there and do what Lester did last night- keep this team in the game.

 

Instead, he gives up 8 runs and can't get out of the 6th inning. 3 runs before the team even came to bat. The offense tried to bail him out multiple times and he just gave the lead right back.

 

I don't care if they are facing the back to back AL champs. He has to keep us in the game today.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

"Stretch..stretch...you cannnn put it on the boarddddddddd YES! YES!"

 

f***ing Rangers and their offense.

[wyo-sox]

Hello all. So what do the Sox even do with a guy like Beckett at this point? Next year is really scary as they have to figure how to use him and Lackey.

[DocHolliday]

I swear they don't score like this against the rest of the league. It's our terrible pitching staff. Look at the guys in their lineup our pitchers have no answer for:

 

- Kinsler

- Hamilton

- Cruz

- Murphy

- Napoli

 

At times, Beltre and Andrus can be put in that category. That is almost every single guy they bring up to the plate.

 

They can't be this good all the time against us if our pitching isn't terrible.

 

 

But the pitching sucks, it has for 3 years, and it MUST be addressed in the offense. Even if it is an expensive fix, it is clear this group collectively will not work.

[wyo-sox]

Adrian !!!!!!

[NC Sox Fan]

Holy cow! Middlebrooks!!!

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

PUT IT ON THE MOTHERf***ING BOARD!!!!!!!!!!!

[Thunder]

Middlebrooks for president!

[wyo-sox]

Nice shot Will. I guess this game is the perfect example...... THE PROBLEM IS OUR STARTING PITCHING!!!

[kapsis21]

another 3 run jack.. i think he loves 3 run jacks and Grand slams.. but who doesnt..

[DocHolliday]

Beckett's terrible outing highlighted even more now. If he had given up a more modest 4-5 runs, we'd have a comfortable lead.

 

Instead, 8 ER.

 

What a joke.

[NativeBostonian]

It's good to see WMB adjusting to the game.

It's hard to stick up for the guy anymore. He just isn't what he use to be.
