5/31 @ the Bronx Zoo

[RabbitIYH]

Looks like rabbit mojo is pretty good.

 

Right, so let's try to keep this one going, at least for the next 3 days

 

Tonight it's a duel of lefties with Jon Lester (6-1, 3.34 ERA) taking on CC Sabathia (4-4, 3.96 ERA). It's Red Sox and Yankees, with their respective aces, in a tight division. End of May/ early June baseball doesn't get any better than that.

 

Trash those clowns!

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Rip these bitches apart in their own house.

[mvp 78]

Ells out tonight, JBJ in!

[mvp 78]

@Sean_McAdam: Ellsbury was in original lineup, but then scratched. Had groin and calf wrapped in ice last night after game, but unsure what issue is.

 

Update:

@Sean_McAdam: Ellsbury scratched with tightness in left groin, which he first felt on last stolen base. Considered day-to-day.

Well, we all know where Sabathia's going to pitch Bradley. Let's see if he learned anything in AAA.

Opening Day all over again... Wait, that wasn't a good thing.

Too bad that Victorino is on the shelf. He is a tough out for lefty pitchers.

[CaliSoxFan04]

Hopefully getting some distance between them in the standings this weekend

[BostonRookies]

Almost time to get started! Gotta jump on them quick tonight and never loo back. Lester will do the rest. Go Sox!

[Thunder]

Great AB by Nava to start, bad result.

Wow

[Thunder]

The PC Richard and Son's jingle is already pissing me off.

[Thunder]

Thank you Dustin!

[BornToRun]

Squeezing him a bit.

[BornToRun]

f*** your mother, Bob Costas. Goddamn jinx.

[User Name]

Lester, for the love of God.

[Thunder]

Come on Jonny

[BornToRun]

Sit down, bitches.

[User Name]

Aaaaand that's why Ross was a good sign.

[Thunder]

Ross should play more often.

[BornToRun]

I've already decided that I don't like Jim Kaat.

[MJantomaso]

This umpire is a god damn mongaloid.

[Thunder]

Since Remy's not here, I'm dealing with Michael Kay and YES.

You have my sympathy.

[Thunder]

You have my sympathy.

 

Not as bad as Harrelson, and they are actually more professional than NESN although Remy brings Orsillo down.

[MJantomaso]

Nap gases by a 90 mph fastball. Jesus

[Thunder]

Ross should really play more.

[BornToRun]

I'm not a fan of either, really. I don't want Don to go full Hawk but he gets too excited for the opposition sometimes, at least for my tastes.
