    3-2 to Cano and my San Antonio affiliate just cut to racing. WTF was up with that?! Took me 30 seconds to find FX and got to see Cano out at first. I hate FOX Sports. Gotta love Papelbon when he's into the role!

    Same thing happened to me Barndog. That was a modern day Heidi game moment if I ever saw one.

    BTW the Perkdog Factor obviously decided this contest tonight.

    another good matchup tomorrow! It is easier to watch early season Sox-NYY contests without aggravating the ulcer image

    and I knew the Sox would lose the moment I saw Timlin last night.

    Same thing happened to us in Florida. Fortunately we were ready for it!
    As wonderful as it was to see the Sox win, I was equally pleased to hear McCarver shut his yap when Papelbon came out for the bottom of the 9th. They made it sound like the Sox were acutally going to bring someone else in to close the game.

    Buck and McCarver just suck, I hate them

    Ughhhh!

    Manny killed us last night ! , I don't know why they pitch to him when nobody is on base !

    Joe Girardi is a fool !
  • perkdogperkdog Posts: 30,661 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Great job fellas! Papelbon just locking tit down!!!!!!

    It is image anytime the Sox bust one off in the Yanks!! image

    Ok, everyone BRACE yourselves.. I cannot believe Im going to suggest this.......... Seriously Brace yourself- youve been warned....










































    I think it might be a good idea to have JD Drew take Papi's place in the batting order- at least until Papi gets out of his funk. Any thoughts?
  • BarndogBarndog Posts: 20,492 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I do think Drew should be moved to #5 in the order...best maintains the R-L-R thing that Francona prefers. Also, with Manny hitting the way he has been, Ortiz is in the best spot to get the pitches he needs to see in order to break out.
  • ConnecticoinConnecticoin Posts: 12,868 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Fox pulled a Heidi, way to go, douchebags.

    WTF was Fox thinking? It's not like you miss much at the start of a freakin' NASCAR race anyway.

    Give baseball back to NBC or CBS, please!!!

    Thoughts....I think you're a prophet!!! Here's tonight's lineup:

    1. Jacoby Ellsbury, LF
    2. Dustin Pedroia, 2B
    3. J.D. Drew, RF
    4. Manny Ramirez, DH
    5. Kevin Youkilis, 3B
    6. Sean Casey, 1B
    7. Jason Varitek, C
    8. Coco Crisp, CF
    9. Julio Lugo, SS

    Good call Perk. Maybe the day off will help Papi
  • perkdogperkdog Posts: 30,661 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Sweeet! image Obviously its not cool having Papi take in some pine time but he is really struggling so hopefully this will take care of that. Let him chill out and get his confidence back- he is a veteran so it shouldnt take long.
  • I was thinking the same thing, so Francona and the guys on this board must be geniuses image
    Mr. Clutch needs a night off. Go get 'em Coco !
  • What's the matter with Lowell image
  • RipublicaninMassRipublicaninMass Posts: 10,051 ✭✭✭
    guess Lowell's Thumb is funnked
  • BarndogBarndog Posts: 20,492 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I thought Lowell was on the 15-day DL and the Sox brought up Lowrie. Sprained thumb must be pretty bad. I think thumbs are important for hitting, no?
  • Dang Dice.... coem on buddy... I know you're a lsow starter... but come on!

    BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! DOUBLE PLAY! I can dig it!

    Take it easy fellas. Hughes has electric stuff. He's 21 pitching at Fenway for the first time, and his control is off tonight. You will all learn in time!!!!!!!!

    Just not tonight apparently image
