I predict that Adam Dunn will strike out.

[BigPapiEnFuego]

Jake Peavey throws a perfect game.

[Navafan29]

Jake Peavey throws a perfect game.

 

Your prediction is slightly more bold than mine.

[Thunder]

Papi hits a grand slam in the first inning.

[Station 13]

Papi hits a grand slam in the first inning.

 

You're willing to put your soul on the line for that?

[Thunder]

You're willing to put your soul on the line for that?

 

My soul? No. A few bucks? Sure.

What does that mean exactly?

[Station 13]

What does that mean exactly?

 

when the time come you'll know.

[NativeBostonian]

Now that's just crazy talk.

[Station 13]

Now that's just crazy talk.

 

certain sacrifices need to be made to appease the BABIP god.

[Brennan]

The best part about it is 13's avatar staring you in the face as he lays claim to your soul.

[User Name]

I think that's the main reason for his current schtick.

[mvp 78]

Peavy throws a no hitter tonight.

[mvp 78]

I predict that Adam Dunn will strike out.

 

You jumped off that bandwagon pretty quick.

[Navafan29]

You jumped off that bandwagon pretty quick.

 

I always love making fun of Adam Dunn.

[Northern Star]

I predict a riot.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Peavy hits a grand slam in the first inning.

[Northern Star]

Joel Hanrahan was the closer for the Red Sox in name only.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Hanrahan thought he could impersonate Mark Melancon.

 

NO ONE can do a successful Mark Melancon impersonation. The Red Sox version anyway. Except for maybe Mike Remlinger or Rudy Seanez.

[Navafan29]

Who the heck is John Rish?

[Northern Star]

Who the heck is John Rish?

 

Just what I was thinking. He looks kinda.....odd.

[BigPapiEnFuego]

Dustin Pedroia runs a 3-2 pitch back for a touchdown

[Northern Star]

White Sox catcher is phlegmatic.

[BigPapiEnFuego]

Who the heck is John Rish?

 

I have no idea, this is my first time seeing him and my TV is on mute and even still I am annoyed by him.

[Northern Star]

Farrell will burn 2 time outs with a minute left in the 1st half trying to set up the full court press.
