  1. Ball Four is my favorite baseball book. I still have my paperback copy from when it was a big deal. On the cover it is endorsed by Howard Cosell" ..." Puts to route the idea that baseball is the sacred cow and that the only milk that it emits is pure". If it were not for this book I would never have known about beaver shooting!
  2. Hahahahahahahaha!1!1!
  3. I did not know any of this stuff except the Ruth days thing.
  4. Probably. But discussion is what Talksox is here for. As long as there is no flaming or s*** storms, this topic and thread are viable.
  5. Yeah. I see him as a real 1st baseman.
  6. Thee is no reason for this thread to be locked.
  7. Yes. Welcome.
  8. He is making productive contact. Not the hard contact in the gap or off the wall that we have seen in the past but I have confidence we will see it soon and often enough. This thread has run it's course.
  9. Let's drop it. No need to encourage a troll.
  10. Yeah I am sure the game would have been better served if Holt had pulled a Bible out of his pocket and prayed with Austin. Give us a f***ing break. This is not a case where all of us Sox fans are being homers. Most of us would have called out a Sox player for doing what Austin did.
  11. Of course you are. You know the score in these situations. I assume that you thought that the slide was "dirty"?
  12. For people that travel in Maine!!!!!
  13. Besides it is Maine. You can't get there from here.
  14. Now we just have to see the a700 "All Suck Team". Duda at 1st Leon at Catcher And?
  15. Lol. Yes it was. I am sure you are much too good looking and honest to be one.
  16. lol. Well said old dude!
  17. Harmony sounds like a White House spokesperson.
  18. Are you really so dense as to ask this question? Maybe it's just condescension?
  19. This post is a product of our times.
  20. Call me a homer but this is one case where "the eye test" is clearly important. There are no stats that support the idea that Austin's slide was anything but a deliberate attempt to interfere ( in this case spike ) with Holt. I've seen the replay 10 or so times from a variety of angles. From the back or from the front camera views parallel to the runner both show ( in slow motion ) Austin lifting his leg and moving toward Holt's leg. I don't know what was reviewed beyond weather the Sox were attempting the DP. The umps or MLB in New York f***ed this one up. I'd like to see Austin pull that s*** with Psycho Machollo. You know. Someone close to his size and just as f***ed in the head. Holt demonstrated a lot of self control.
  21. After a glorious sunny spring day it is 100% overcast and raining 35 miles south west of Fenway. I hope tonight's game is not rained out.
  22. Nonsense. He has said and done some dumb-ass things while here. He remains one of the most competitive starting pitchers in baseball.
