Nice stop Pedey!

Happy 72nd Birthday Yaz!! :thumbsup:

Offense

Damn it Reddick caught the fk'n ball!!!!

Was just thinking the same thing. Bedard does work slowly......pitching well so far though, I like it.

No doubt:lol:

The Rangers announcers are fine so far. Cool.

I've heard the rumor about the Jays but hadn't heard that about the Rangers...hmmmm...

I heard today that Fielder is a vegetarian. Made me giggle. He seems cool but don't think we need him.

I wonder if our game was like a "back up" game in case it rained in Philly b/c their game started at 7 and ours at 8. Who knows.

My MLB Network is showing the Mets v Phillies. At least I have MLB Extra Innings but the Texas broadcast. Don't remember their announcers just hope they suck.

Chill man it's over.

Apology accepted. GO RED SOX!!!

Me too but damn :thumbdown

Plenty of pre-game news from Texas Posted by Peter Abraham, Globe Staff August 22, 2011 05:17 PM By Peter Abraham, Globe Staff ARLINGTON, Texas — Here's the latest from Terry Francona: • Andrew Miller will pitch here on Thursday with Tim Wakefield going on Friday back home against Oakland. The immediate benefit is giving the other starters an extra day of rest. It also will allow the Sox to have John Lackey, Josh Beckett and Jon Lester pitch against the Yankees in the series that starts Aug. 30. • Jacoby Ellsbury should be able to play tomorrow. He came in early and did some hitting in the cage today and was feeling better. • J.D. Drew will play for Single-A Lowell on Friday and Saturday. Then he'll work out with the Sox on Sunday. Games with Class AAA Pawtucket will follow on Aug. 29 and 30 and he'll be activated on Sept. 1. • David Ortiz will take regular BP today as he continues to make progress. The earliest he would play, at least by the way it sounds, is Wednesday and that may be a stretch.
