Rookie mistake by Middlebrooks. There was zero reason to be moving toward the plate before that ball got through the IF.

 

True but replay showed he was safe. Bad base running certainly but he was safe

This is the type of games we need real middle relievers not to burn out the BP. Mortensen isn't good at all.

 

They keep throwing this guy out there and he keeps giving up runs. ERA 5.6.

Damn I wish we did not have to use Ueh and Taz tonight. Well we still have two with this team. So I think it just means we need to get along without them at least for one. Monday is a day off.

And to think Erik Bedard used to own the Sox. He sucks now, so let's hammer this chump!

 

6-3 Red Sox with a 2-run big fly from Thor. You read it here first.

By the way, if WMB did become one of the great mistake pitch hitters, that would be huge. The reason I would be willing to give up opposite field hits for that is probably obvious.

- opposite field for half WMB's games would be Fenway RF. A big playground out there where he would likely end up with a bunch of singles and a few doubles

- WMB is a strong enough guy that when he jumps on mistakes, they are going over the monster in LF or over and out of just about any other LF in MLB. So I will take extra base hits and HR's to LF over opposite field hits and let guys like Vic and Ells and Pedey take care of the singles.

Victory!!!!!! This has been a blast so far. How refreshing.

 

I never complain about a win so I go to bed happy again, but is it me or did this game just drag along? It looked to me like Don and Jerry were running out of things to say as the contest just droned on and on. I can't multi-task like my wife can so I don't get on the game thread during the game. It would hard to watch the game and then transfer over to the thread. I wonder how you guys do it.

 

Oh yea, a couple more things. Mortensen is not an answer to our bullpen. The guy is the RH version of Miller and usually gets pasted. Of course I said the same thing about Ross with the bat a few days ago and tonight we went ballistic. With him, was it just inept Astros pitching or does this guy have more hitting ability than I give him credit for. He sure looked potent tonight and so did the whole team.

 

USER is starting to fall down on the job. He was off by one run tonight, but he must still start the game thread tomorrow.
