    This is pure awesome. You could hardly have scripted the last couple of weeks better. Well, OK, you'd have skipped the part about Ellsbury fouling the ball off his foot, but other than that it's been a beautiful stretch of baseball.

    I guess it's semantics. I don't see Middlebrooks as an established major leaguer, seeing as he's spent a huge chunk of this season in Pawtucket. It's not just that he's a product of the farm -- Pedroia, Ellsbury, and Lester are products of the farm and they're hardly farmhands anymore. I'm thinking that Nava doesn't qualify any more either. Anyway, it's still beautiful to beat the Yanks with contributions from a bunch of young homegrown talent. Bogaerts and The One I Call Brooksie will be leading us to wins next year while the Yanks continue to cart their various decomposing cash-stuffed corpses onto the field.

    I just watched all 4 HRs from yesterday. Naps is smoking. He's got that Beltre-esque thing of going down on the back knee when he takes a big cut. Gomes' swing looks like barely controlled violence. It's not pretty, but when it connects, ouch. Bogaerts, though... that swing looked almost nonchalant. I mean, there was lots of bat speed through the zone, but it didn't look like he was muscling up or anything. And that ball just went and went and went. And then went some more. Second longest HR at Yankee Stadium this year, eh? And that's our AAA shortshop, suckas! Beautiful to see us beating the Yanks with so many farmhands contributing: Bogaerts, Brooksie, Bradley, Lavarnway... Only one thing left: Bogaerts and Bradley have got to see how much of a beard they can grow from here on out.

    Did anyone bump this yet? SFF hit the nail on the head, except for the 4-5 run lead part.
  5. Beaneater
    OK, I'm happy to shut up for a win.
  6. Beaneater
    Dirty orange juice!
  7. Beaneater
    One more.

    Kudos for getting Jennings after starting off 3-0. But seriously, one BB and he needs to be gone, pitching mop-up until he can get his act together.
  9. Beaneater
    That's it. I'm serious, Farrell. Someone else needs to be in this game already. No messing around.
  10. Beaneater
    Why? WHY??? I have a sinking feeling that this game is already as good as over.
  11. Beaneater
    I might cry if I see Bailey in the 9th. Especially if he even goes to a 2-ball count on one solitary batter.
  12. Beaneater
    Ugh. Off to bed.
  13. Beaneater
    Time for the Salty steal!
  14. Beaneater
    Is Salty really batting lefty against a LHP like Gamecast says?
  15. Beaneater
    If Uehara only throws 7 pitches per inning, we might be able to squeeze 5-6 innings out of him .
  16. Beaneater
    Dude, it's not that bad!
  17. Beaneater
    I thought it was pretty good. I'm a cat-hater, though... and come to think of it, I work in a country where people eat cats since they're made of meat.
  18. Beaneater
    That's what Bailey was supposed to do, if I'm understanding this "closer" thing correctly.
  19. Beaneater
    That was Chase Wright, no?
  20. Beaneater
    Kind of what I figured.
  21. Beaneater
    Never mind, it just caught up.
  22. Beaneater
    Can anyone summarize how we got out of that? Gamecast and Gameday are both frozen for me, with an 0-2 count on Longoria.
  23. Beaneater
    And that's why I prefer a 2-run lead.
  24. Beaneater
    I hate defensive indifference. I really really want to see a game that ends with the catcher gunning some poor sap down at 2B. That would make me very happy. As it is, yes, that's a huge run. I'd feel pretty nervous about the bottom of the 10th with a 1-run lead, but 2 runs is a whole different ballgame. Course, it would have been even better if Brooksie had launched one and made it a 4-run lead... but that's getting greedy.
  25. Beaneater
    Sounds like he's all All-Star this year if it were done by merit and not popularity.
