7/20 @ Baltimore

[Thunder]

RHP Big Dick Rick (7-7, 5.37) vs RHP Tom Eshelman (0-1, 5.06)

 

A win tonight would be one small step for Red Sox, one giant leap for Red Sox Nation. Haters will say its fake.

 

Win. Dance. Repeat.

 

(See what I did there?)

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Here's an interesting comparison.

With RISP Beni is batting .342.

With RISP JD is batting .275.

I see what you did there. You posted that anyone who questions if the moon landing was real is a hater. Personally, I don't care if it was real or fake. I do know that our government has a long history of lying. 4 relatively recent examples would be Pearl Harbor, Vietnam, LH Oswald, and WMD.

Get it done Big dick

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I've been watching a few different games on Xtra innings and found reenforcement to what I already knew. Bad starting pitching isn't the exception to the rule, it is the rule.

Go get 'em, Tyler, but as both you and I know "get it done Big Dick" very seldom works. Maybe today?

Ya he’s due for a good game though!!!! Where did that damn Minnesota start go??

[bosoxmal]

If piching is 75% of the game (Connie Mack, for the young folks), then we are realy in touble. Wht has happened to alost an entire staff (and it only takes 3 o4 stiffs to make it a bad pitchong staff).

 

Coaching is my guess

Excellent. Hard the believe it’s been 50 years since I heard those immortal words. I was just shy of my 11th birthday that Sunday afternoon and evening. I was reflecting a couple days ago on how much has changed over that time. One was that they took that journey with a computer with less power than the phone I’m typing this on. Then it hit me that my grandmother, born in 1889, came into the world about the time of the invention of the automobile and lived to see a man walk on the moon.

 

To keep this baseball related, that was before the DH and it was the first year of divisional play.

Chris Davis? The O's are bringing out the heavy artillery.

Good movie, The Right Stuff.

Ed Harris was excellent in that movie.

[OH FOY]

Saw this kid Pitching for O's, then with Reading he was with the Phillies, 2 years ago. We got this.

We got this as long as we score 10 or more runs. The stiff on the mound for us actually has a higher ERA than their guy. Well over 5.

[jung]

Chavis should love this guy.

[Station 13]

Damn two hard hit all for naught

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Yankems faced a s***** starter today and clubbed him, which is what you're supposed to do against a s***** pitcher.

[OH FOY]

Sweet, Rick!

[Station 13]

Mancini missed a meatball from meathead.

[Station 13]

Rick will get blasted with 3 center cut pitch like that next time.

[OH FOY]

That was BAD!!!

[OH FOY]

Raffy!!!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Great play on both ends. Kept Rick under 20 pitches which for SOX starters is nothing short of a miracle.

Yes sir!

JD loves weak cheese. So he should love this guy too.

Big at bat early in game for CV.
