Woe is Riverside, the thrilling conclusion Act 5, Scene 3. Scene 3. A churchyard; in it a tomb belonging to the Lugos. Friar Francona Riverside! Advances Alack, alack, what blood is this, which stains The stony entrance of this sepulchre? What mean these masterless and gory swords To lie discolour'd by this place of peace? Enters the tomb Riverside! O, pale! Who else? what, GIARSF too? And steep'd in blood? Ah, what an unkind hour Is guilty of this lamentable chance! The shortstop stirs. JULIO wakes JULIO Go, get thee hence, for I will not away. Exit FRIAR FRANCONA What's here? a cup, closed in my true love's hand? Poison, I see, hath been his timeless end: O churl! drunk all, and left no friendly drop To help me after? I will kiss thy lips; Haply some poison yet doth hang on them, To make die with a restorative. Kisses him Thy lips are warm. First Baseman Youkilis Lead, boy: which way? JULIO Yea, noise? then I'll be brief. O happy dagger! Snatching RIVERSIDE's dagger This is thy sheath; Stabs himself there rust, and let me die. Falls on RIVERSIDE's body, and dies

Stay tuned for the thrilling conclusion!

13 GB outs. Well done, again. How do they give Julio Lugo an error?

This is possibly the most historic moment in the history of the game. I think 25 years from now, you'll be the only person to remember that Julio Lugo doubled on the 21st of July, in the 3rd inning of a 2-1 game.

After today’s missed catch, Pena made back-to-back plays on fly balls to end the inning, prompting a mock cheer from the sellout crowd. Pena didn’t get the sarcasm. http://www.boston.com/sports/nesn/wilbur/sports_blog/blog/2006/04/11/mo_problems/index.html

Wily Mo needs to tear up his contract and go to the minors.

Sorry, but Bonds AB's > This game.

I like that Gabbard keeps the ball on the ground, if he keeps throwing strikes, he'll be OK.

What the f*** is this, the Family Circus? Burn in hell, *******.

A little early to be calling him another Paul O'Neil?

I'd trade Ellsbury, if we could keep Bowden.

I want to, but I'll be unhappy when I have to clean that s*** up, when that's exposed as a fabricated rumor.

Who were the prospects? Did they actually say that they had a deal with the Phillies? They asked the FO, about Dontrelle Willis, Barry Zito, Jon Lieber. They were never on those guys.

I have a hard time buying that the Red Sox were even remotely close to an Abreu deal. They had a Nixon in RF, with Wily Mo on the bench, at the time of the deal. The last place the Red Sox needed an upgrade was RF.

They've actually gone down. He was tearing the s*** out of the ball in May, then his luck normalized. He peaked at .397, now he's at .308. What do you see in this guy that makes you think he isn't a product of his environment? His ISOP was actually higher last year. If you want ISOP's of around .150, we have that in Kevin Youkilis. He makes $16,000,000 fewer dollars than Todd Helton. He's going to come to Fenway, and produce at the same level? Have you not seen what's happened with J.D. Drew and David Ortiz? He's signed until he's 41, and he's going to be paid to perform like he did in 2001. I'd rather take a look at a free agent SP. It's actually: Helton - .839 Youkilis - .856

Could be that quad injury? No, he's milking it. Billy Beane likes him, so he sucks.
