I see no one made a game thread, so I'll make one. Sorry there's no pictures, I'm not on my laptop.

 

Lester 6-4 ERA 4.37 vs Fister 6-4 ERA 3.21

 

Lets get this win please. The site is much more enjoyable when we do.

That's debatable.

[mvp 78]

@PeteAbe: David Ross had been shut down indefinitely because of a second concussion. Went home to Florida. #redsox

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

That's debatable.

 

It is, but there's a lot less to complain about when you win

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Lester going to turn it around tonight.

[italstallianion]

No he's not.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

No he's not.

 

You shut the f*** up. Enjoy that double play :lol:

[Station 13]

Bradford is a joke. Shut up whore.

I wonder when push comes to shove on this closer thing if the Sox end up doing what the had at one point announced with Bailey. Ueh is the closer but Taz gets some closing assignments. I cannot see the Sox just relying on Ueh to close every game.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Almost a really nice play by Iggy

[jung]

Last night Bradford tried to compare WMB to Iggy at 3rd. That is a joke. As much as I commend WMB for having improved his defense over this offseason, Iggy's physical attributes are so much better than WMB's that even at 3rd, Iggy is clearly the superior fielder.

Nice K Jon. Jackson out of the Tiger's lineup is a huge break for the Sox. Jackson provides them with the only speed option they have at the top of the lineup.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Whack

[Station 13]

it's so tiring to watch lester these days. Two out hits? f*** that, make better pitches and quit falling behind counts.

[jung]

Come on Sox..This we are going to need a few runs to have a shot at winning this game. Doubt 2-3 is going to get it done.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Man, Pedroia really turned down a great pitch to hit.

Could be interesting to see if Fister is going to continue to groove strike 1 like that. If so, the Sox need to get more aggressive and jump on that thing.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Intentionally walking Ortiz? We've seen good things from Napoli when that happens...crush that s***

[jung]

Naps may have been planning on Fister grooving strike 1 there. If not I have no idea what Naps was swinging at.

[mvp 78]

Wine? Don't give a s***.

[jung]

Starting to worry much more about Naps. The argument that his K rate was acceptable with his production was a good argument. But now his production has fallen off and his swing does not look good at all.

[WMB16]

Is Lester capable of going more than 5 innings

 

He's nibbling a lot and throwing so many damn pitches

[Station 13]

Lester is throwing a ton of pitches again. It's like Dice-K out there, except Dice-K usually strikeout batters.

[jung]

While Farrell made a big deal out of it....this does not look like "attacking the strike zone" to me. This is a tough line up though. Lester doing OK so far. This could be much worse though if Jackson was out there wrecking havoc on the base paths. Jackson makes a big dif in the Tigers offense.

Following the A-Gon path, no good.

[jung]

Wow that Tiiger outfield looks like a bunch of lumbering oxen without Jackson out there.

[iortiz]

Right now, u just can't sit down Iglesias.

[iortiz]

Ells!

[jung]

Sox are getting more aggressive with Fister's strike 1....way to adapt...Sox

[jung]

I love it when the Sox little guys go nuts like this. all we need now is another Nava bomb when he comes up to make it perfect
