Sox at Devil Rays 6/28

[mvp 78]

Fun times

[a700hitter]

Lol the Rays pitcher that shut us down yesterday was sent to the minors to make room for Grady Sizemore.

[a700hitter]

Okay, before the first inning starts, all I need to see is whether Masterson can hit 90 on the gun. If he cant, this is just a waste of time and Masterson is toast. Just cut him and move on.

[a700hitter]

I didn't notice anything hitting 90.

Fatty strokes a HR

[a700hitter]

Panda with the opposite field home run down the line inside the pole. That was a good tailing pitch by Archer that didn't look like it was hit very hard.

[a700hitter]

Napoli gets himself thrown out of the game - probably doesn't want to face Archer anymore.

[mvp 78]

Nap ejection sparks De Aza HR...

[RedSoxNC84]

De Aza > Rusney

[a700hitter]

d'Aza with a home run. Two home runs against Archer. That is rare. If you get a couple of 3 runs against this guy, that is about as good as you will do. Your pitching has to be good to beat the Rays when Archer pitches.

[NativeBostonian]

Jackie really needs to start hitting now. When Vic gets back, it's between him and De Aza and De Aza has been raking.

[RedSoxNC84]

When Vic comes back he'll be back in the revolving door to the dl shortly

[iortiz]

You better don't f*** this up, Masterson.

[jad]

Well, at least Napoli is a team guy and realizes the most effective way he can help is to stay out of the game.

[RedSoxNC84]

Masterson is terrifying to watch

[RedSoxNC84]

So far so good but I know the implosion is coming soon

[NativeBostonian]

Panda should take notes. That's what a good third basemen looks like.

[NativeBostonian]

There you go Ortiz!

Archer pitching the HR derby today

[a700hitter]

Three home runs and 4 runs of Archer. The offense did its job. It is up to our pitching now. I noticed that Masterson hit 91 last inning.

[a700hitter]

Ortiz takes Archer deep! He will hit close to 30 bombs. He is not the problem.

Archer pitching the HR derby today

 

He's matched the amount home runs today to what he's given up all year. Doesn't seem like he has it today. Need to capitalize on that.

Its nice to see that his power came back this month. He's got six now this month which is very solid.

I think the hitters deserve the credit. Archer has 8 k's in the 5 th inning. It's hard to say that he doesn't have it today.

I agree. It's not like the sox are gettinf hits left and right. They have just hit 3 huge hrs.

[Bellhorn04]

Ortiz's best months have always been June and July (and October).

[a700hitter]

I agree. It's not like the sox are gettinf hits left and right. They have just hit 3 huge hrs.

 

Yep, Archer is carving up the rest of them pretty good. He has 9 k's now.

[a700hitter]

Archer is in a tough spot with Panda at the plate and 1st and 3rd with 1 out. We could break it open here.

[a700hitter]

Good hitting by Panda. Nice base running by Ortiz.

[a700hitter]

5 runs against Archer is a very good job by the offense. Their D didn't give away anything.
