4/10 vs Baltimore

[jung]

Arrietta was lucky to get outta' that inning. He never did calm down after the calls at home plate and the missplay in LF. Stark dif between how he handled that and the way Dempster handled the error in the outfield.

[VA Sox Fan]

Yep. I have to watch on MASN also and I hate these announcers.

 

So, you know exactly what I mean. Ugh!

[redsoxbeatz]

I said Drew would get a triple but I obviously meant Ellsbury.

[jung]

That looked like a pitch from the first start.

[Lucienbel]

He just put that one in a really bad spot. Gotta get that down or off the plate.

[jung]

How did the MASN guys handle those last two pitched to JBJ that were called balls. Did they go ballistic?

[TylerD]

Ugh. Just as you start to pull away.

[RedSoxNC84]

So, you know exactly what I mean. Ugh!

 

Same here, nesn is blacked out whenever they play the o's

[jung]

Come on Dempster...playing with trouble here

[Lucienbel]

He's gotta start getting those pitches down. And not middle in on a lefty.

[Palodios]

Just two more, two more.

[jung]

Can I not hear anymore about a AA CF who really is our future at CF somehow providing some kind of advantage in LF at this stage of his career?

[TylerD]

Just two more, two more.

 

Sometimes two more feels like an eternity

[TylerD]

Oh boy..... Falling apart a bit. Not a kind inning.

[RedSoxNC84]

Dempster implosion imminent

[jung]

Dempster really does remind me of Cook. The dif is that while Cook MUST stay down in the zone when he is down he induces ground balls. When Dempster is down he induces swing and miss. But if Dempster is up in the zone at all he gets the same result that Cook gets.

[RedSoxNC84]

Needed that k

[RedSoxNC84]

I do like his swing and miss stuff, he just needs to stay in that location always

[Quinny]

They don't have Aceves in the pen available to go multiple innings early in this game with Dempster's pitch count already very high.

[Lucienbel]

Ended up looking pretty good against Flaherty and Reimold. He needs to pitch like that to the guys that matter though.

[User Name]

Stephen Drew is good at baseball.

[Jasonbay44]

Dempster not getting much help from his outfielders

[Lucienbel]

They don't have Aceves in the pen available to go multiple innings early in this game with Dempster's pitch count already very high.

 

Mortensen is definitely capable of taking on some innings for them if need be.

[RedSoxNC84]

Arrieta needs to walk the entire lineup again this inning

[jung]

Where the two are really similar is that I used to comment how "down" for Cook meant below the upper part of the knee joint. Dempster seems similar is that not only must he keep the ball down but his margin for error is very small. Above the middle of the knee is dangerous ground for both of them.

Time for my annual bitching and moaning post about the game being blacked out on the Baseball Package b/c I live in the Orioles broadcast area (Baltimore is 2 hours away). So I'm forced to watch the game on MASN. At least Jim Palmer isn't in the booth which I hope he will never be again. He's a homer/douche. :thumbdown

 

At least I still get the game, but hate the MASN guys. Waahhhh and booo hooo. :angry

 

Done and done with the whining. Sorry, not my style. But you know.....

 

Way to go Jacoby!!

 

Rain coming down. May be tough to get through 6 innings.

 

2-1 Sox! YAY!!!

 

Lately, I've been busy with school and work and haven't been able to use MLB.TV. I'd gladly lend you my info so you can use it whenever you want, as long as I'm not using it. Let me know if you want it and I'll PM it to you.

Salty with 2 doubles

[User Name]

Yeah, OF defense is important.

[jung]

If Salty could have gotten under that at all it was gone.

[RedSoxNC84]

Nice K
