8/18 v Orioles

[YastrzemskI]

Wow.. two f***in innings and it’s 5-0 Birds... gimme a break.

[OH FOY]

5 is a very bad number for the Red Sox this year, we have a terrible record when we give 5 runs or more, this year.

[YastrzemskI]

Two away

[jung]

Well this is going well so far.....NOT!!!!!!

[YastrzemskI]

This pitcher strikes me as a batting practice thrower if I ever saw one. Come on guys.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That was probably the worst opening act since Rick Astley.

[jung]

Ah yes....walks one of our catchers to get to the other one. Blach might not have an arm but he does have a brain.

[oldtimer]

Well this is going well so far.....NOT!!!!!!

 

This has been a bugaboo for us this year. Starting pitchers giving up 5 in less than 5 innings. What can Cora do? Bring up the youngsters? Could they be much worse?

[OH FOY]

When Chris Davis is not having a problem taking Pitches, your Pitcher don't have it.

[jung]

Natives getting restless in Fenway after that mighty Sandy hack.

 

Might not be hard to elicit a chorus of boos for the rest of this season.

[YastrzemskI]

And queue the organ.. the Sox are clueless against Tom Glavine today.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Sandy Leon, not to be confused with Sergio Leone.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

This has been a bugaboo for us this year. Starting pitchers giving up 5 in less than 5 innings. What can Cora do? Bring up the youngsters? Could they be much worse?

 

I don't believe the SOX farm has any pitching youngsters left.

[jung]

If DHern can just keep his motion together for a whole inning (yes you read that right....A WHOLE INNING) we might have something.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

And queue the organ.. the Sox are clueless against Tom Glavine today.

 

Ty Blach? Does anyone here remember a TV actor named Ty Hardin of BRONCO LAYNE fame?

Geezus D, were you aiming for his foot? That could be a real interesting way to intimidate hitters. "Geez will you stop hitting us in the foot."

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

D-hern is still young. That's all I got.

[YastrzemskI]

So the SOX haven’t given up a run in every inning of a game so far this year. Something to root for??

[TylerD]

Well the win streak was nice while it lasted.

[jung]

Epic matchup: Blach v Owings.

 

Jim Palmer is probably sweating it out up in the booth

[jung]

I take what I said about Blach's brains back. Walks Owings to get to Mookie. Real bright kid that Ty.

[YastrzemskI]

Hey we’re on the board!!! How’da ya like that?!?

[TylerD]

The bats are trying!

[jung]

New mark for MLB starting pitchers. "Can they get to 50 f***ing pitches? Can they even do that?"

 

Blach relieved....he got to 50.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

It appears Ty is human after all.

[YastrzemskI]

New mark for MLB starting pitchers. "Can they get to 50 f***ing pitches? Can they even do that?"

 

Blach relieved....he got to 50.

 

“I can do that... but I won’t do THAT.”

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I think the SOX will score more than 6 runs. Unfortunately, I believe the O's will too.

[jung]

Villar has certainly had an inspiring inning of base running hasn't he!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

That was lame. Big break for the SOX.

[jung]

Villar talking to the ump. "What was that rule? Huh....what...."
