Didn't Tony LaRussa propose that games be split into 3 3-inning pitching sessions? Maybe he was on to something...

[Foulkey Reese]

I would really think a lot less of this team if they pissed this game away. It's practically a free win.

[Joe Shlabotnick]

Trembley could be on to something here. Pitch your shitty relievers for 2 or 3 innings each instead of your shitty starters. The confusion to the other team is palpable based on this performance today.

If I pulled this shit at work, I'd be fired on the spot. No one is even trying FFS.

YOU STILL SUCK

[Obscure Name]

He's no Jay Buhner.

[TFisNEXT]

WOW!!

What a catch by Jacoby!

[SoxScout]

How the fuck does he have one of these a game? FUCKING UNREAL

[RSN Diaspora]

Holy smokes. Jacoby!

[Nuf Ced]

At least Ellsbury is still awake in the outfield. Tremendous leaping catch.

[Foulkey Reese]

Did he take a HR away?

[SoxFanPJ]

Freaking awesome catch by Jacoby!

[NomarRS05]

Details please.

[Sprowl]

Jacoby Ellsbury is getting better around the walls, and he's definitely got the hops.

[Razor Shines]

You know, maybe his bat hasn't been great, but he's saved quite a few runs with his glove this year.

[Nuf Ced]

Ellsbury definitely robbed Huff of a home run. It was headed for the bullpen.

[Masamune42]

At least someone's kind of alive out there.

Wow, walked Salazar. Boo.

[Smiling Joe Hesketh]

Maybe that will make their lazy asses up today.

[TFisNEXT]

Did he take a HR away?

Yes. Pretty much caught it at the top of his leap with his arm fully extended.




fake edit: Nice job DiceK...you walked Salazar again, this time on 5 pitches.

[Foulkey Reese]

Walking that clown worked out so well last time.

[NYCSox]

Why is he afraid of Oscar fucking Salazar? Put it on the goddamn tee, he still can't hit worth shit.

[NomarRS05]

Hit the showers Dice K. Not your day.

Unless you had a union like the MLBPA, in which case your boss would be fined, apologize to you, give you a raise and promise not to collude with other bosses in the future.

[The Napkin]

Maybe that will make their lazy asses up today.

At least it took Daisuke 5 pitches to walkt a .217 hitter that time...

[Masamune42]

What's going to take to wake these guys up today? Because if it's punching Cora in the face, I'll do it.

[NickEsasky]

Enough with the fucking walks. When will we learn that pitchers from the Japanese leagues can't throw strikes?
no matter what their walk rates were in Japan they always suck balls in the US.

[Masamune42]

And then he strikes out scott on three pitches. I don't get it.

[Foulkey Reese]

Then a 3 pitch K.

Dicek is an enigma.

I'm Joe Shlabotnick, and I approve this message.

[rembrat]

With Matsuzaka's luck, the Sox will put up a 5 spot now and he'll end up with a win.

[Foulkey Reese]

Score some fucking runs.

[Bosoxen]

And then he strikes out scott on three pitches. I don't get it.

This made me laugh.

[Masamune42]

For fuck's sake. Get TWO this inning. Cut the lead in half. Someone hit a fucking double. DO SOMETHING!

[Foulkey Reese]

And just for the record I was mostly kidding about wanting Byrd to start a playoff game over DiceK. But having said that, I'm terrified of a typical Dicek 5IP 5BB start during the playoffs.

I don't know, I mean Dice-K's been pretty good (brushing away the hysteria and hyperbole surrounding this game, of course), and Nomo had a decent career for someone who started in the MLB at 26.

yeah, pretty much. I sense a big inning coming up though. They're going to get a guy all the way to second base...

[TFisNEXT]

Well we go from the weakly hit balls for outs to the "line it right at a fielder" offense.

[Harry Agganis]

We must get our shit together

[Smiling Joe Hesketh]

This is quickly turning into one of the worst games of the year. Facing a nothing team running out their shitbum relievers and one of the worst lineups they'll face all season, the Sox are getting their tits smoked off.

It's maddening.

[Nuf Ced]

The Bullpen Band can't even get it together. Sheesh.

[NomarRS05]

This game is absolutely miserable.

[Foulkey Reese]

*insane comment*

These are the kinds of games that the Mets pissed away in September last year.

/*insane comment*

[OilCanShotTupac]

I can't believe that this is a major-league team, let alone a playoff contender.

[Obscure Name]

This sucks. When's Manny getting back?

From a guy forever looking for the pony in a stall of shit.

[rembrat]

I'd rather watch the bullpen than the rest of this game.

sigh.

[Nuf Ced]

I never want to see Varitek batting from that side of the plate again.

[TFisNEXT]

At least they made him throw 19 pitches that time to retire them 1-2-3.
