10/15: ALCS Game 3 at Comerica

[SoxFanForsyth]

Sunday night was more like it.

 

Homahs and walk offs. That's what Boston does. Homahs. And. Walk offs.

 

Lackey vs Verlander.

 

Game Time:

. (but seriously, 4:07).

 

It's simple. Win tonight. That's all. Just win.

I will go dark at 4 and catch it on DVR starting at 6:30. I hate that.

[a700hitter]

They need to follow the same approach that they used all season long. Get the starter out of the game and feast on the bullpen. IMON the Tiger pen is ready to implode.

[Thunder]

Sox have the momentum. We need a great start by Lackey so we can beat the s*** out of Verlander.

 

WIN

[MANNYHOF24]

I have a feeling Lackey is going to have a great game today. 8 innings, 2 runs, 5 k's. Sox win 4-2.

[Jasonbay44]

WIN! Lackey needs to have a good start.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Better be a fast game if I'm going to see all of it.

[Thunder]

Better be a fast game if I'm going to see all of it.

 

No chance at that.

[mvp 78]

No chance at that.

 

Why? Are you expecting Lackey to get bombed?

 

Verlander works quickly.

[Thunder]

Why? Are you expecting Lackey to get bombed?

 

Verlander works quickly.

 

We are going to work his PC and score some runs.

[Navafan29]

If Benoit is pronounced like benwah then are we supposed to say Detroit like detwaah?

 

Ortiz had 2 homers off Price who he never homered off of, and one against Benoit who he never homered off. Watch out for guys he has faced but not homered off, seriously.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

So glad I was able to get a 6 am shift. Sox have been winning lately when I watch and I have my Pedroia shirt ready to wear when I get home.

"The city's name originates from the Detroit River (French: le détroit du lac Érié, meaning the strait of Lake ..."

 

So you'd pronouce it like Day-trwah if you were eating poutine.

[Bellhorn04]

Hope you're right. But just in case, around the 5th inning the words 'short leash' will hopefully be somewhere in Farrell's thoughts.

Personally I think you Americans handle the French language the correct way - you generally ignore it.

Detwaah?

 

More like De-twat.

We hadn't have any lineups in game 2, why post them now?

[Station 13]

Score early and often. There's no f***ing time to wait around before collecting the first hit after the 7th.

What? Sure I did. See page 2 post 17 of that GT.

Are you playing hooky?

[Bellhorn04]

True that.

[Jasonbay44]

Gomes over Nava again? Hmm, interesting

"The city's name originates from the Detroit River (French: le détroit du lac Érié, meaning the strait of Lake ..."

Reminds me of Bosox21. Whatever happened to that guy?

 

Wherever you are, come back.

[Station 13]

I still vividly remember Nava taking Verlander's 100 mph fastball and line it to left field to win the game.

[SeanJohn93]

A win would be huge today

[BornToRun]

I give this thread the BTR seal of approval.

[BornToRun]

Yup. 3-1 pitch, Nava swings thru it at 99. JV comes back with the exact same pitch at 100 and Danny ropes it to left for a 3R 2B.

[SeanJohn93]

Beltran considering signing with the Yankees... interesting
