Now we will see if the kid has cajones.

It was a routine groundball

Huff=Yankee killer

I can. I got over Mays, Mantle, Yaz, Gibson, Seaver, Rose, Bench and Rice leaving the game. Jeter hasn't made anywhere near the impression upon me as have each of those other guys.

Why I love the Red Sox? I was 8 years old and 1967 happened. It still is the most captivating pennant race I can remember. It brought baseball back to life in New England as the joy of that summer swept over the entire region that had been in the doldrums since for a couple of decades. Two heroes were born-- Yaz and Lonborg. Lonborg's flame went out too fast, but we had Yaz to watch for another 15 or 16 years. That summer set the franchise on an upward trajectory that continues until today. Every overpaid multi-millionaire that passes through the Fenway's home clubhouse should pay homage to that team. As for Nomar, he was a pure joy to watch play the game with all his energy and quirkiness until the bitch Mia Hamm got hold of him and he turned into a sour puss that had no intention of re-signing with Boston before the ARod fiasco. He screwed himself passing on 4years/$60 million. He must really regret that. As much as some spoiled brats complain about playing in Boston, I think most of those who leave regret leaving. In his heart of hearts, I think Damon misses the place. He's just another player in NY. He doesn't have his trademark long hair or beard, and most of all no legions of fans wearing beards and wigs following him from town to town.

He took a foul ball of the toe of his back foot. Even if he broke some toes, they heal very fast. I've played with broken toes. It's no big deal once the swelling goes down. He misses one game at most even if the toes are broken. I expect that he'll be in the lineup tomorrow. He has been losing speed and range for the last couple of years. It's just becoming very noticeable. His range up the middle is nill. I hope he plays there for 3 or 4 more years. The middle will be a gaping hole.

Thuuuhhh Yankees lose!!! Thuuuhhh Yankees lose!!!

Moose was horrible tonight against the Oriokles tonight. His velocity was around 85-86, and everything hit off him was a rope.

Where's JSinger? Did he leave with mark Loretta?

NESN has been pulling some underhanded s*** last year and this year. In the middle of last year, they were balcking out the pre- and post-game shows. Then the signed a contract with DirectV and it was back. Last week they had an all Sox Friday night with a special on 1967, which I was dying to see, because that is the team that made me into the lunatic fan that I am. They blacked out that and the Remy Report the entire weekend out of market. I just don't understand that. If I am paying for NESN why would they black out their own programming? I can understand when they have to abide by MLB restrictions, but this seemed to be unecessary ballbusting. I'd really like to get my hands on a copy of that Impossible Dream show. Any suggestions?

Jackson's absence is conspicuous.

The forecast on line did not look that bad. This guy Drew is very, very smooth. I know I have said it before, but he makes it look effortless in the field.

I think he made 3 errors in the Spring.

I have MLB on Direct TV. Direct TV has the sportspack too which allows you to get the NESN pre and post-game shows. Does cable have that option?

I think Piniero might finish a lot of games that are not save situations. They'll help him hit his incentives so he doesn't become disgruntled. He looked good tonight, but it's hard to judge anything against KC.

My biggest criticism was that the FO had no backup plan if he wasn't ready. Look at the young pitchers. They are still not ready, but we had other options. OMG, Lowell with 3 errors in one game. Will he go on the DL? The KC announcers at the start of the game mentioned how he rarely makes an error. Now they are saying that it is hard to believe that they could have jinxed him that much. He looks like Yaz at 3rd tonight.

Piniero... the forgotten man. This will count towards his incentive.
