Works for me.

Oh, and you MFY lurkers:

Game 3 of the season-ending run is today.

Plan working perfectly so far.


But I would like to see that 2.5 game lead at some point that you promised us.

[Nuf Ced]

Play time is over.

Keep winning.

[5belongstoGeorge]

11:05 Pacific start time means I won't be tuning in to hear about Clement's gem until the end.

I'll throw in a clap, clap, clap-clap-clap while I'm at church.

[Joe D Reid]

I would like to note that the A's should continue eating the poop.

I guess Ellis has recovered from the hershey squirts. I hope the fucker is too weak to catch up with Matty's fastball. He's been Eckstein-like annoying this year.

[joyofsox]

Love the Pro hitting #2.

I say he scores at least twice today ahead of the big boys.

***

(oh, and blue jays, try to score a freaking run today, you losers. )

[SpinnersRock]

Forget yesterday focus on today, Clement and a win!

[joyofsox]

jays 1st and 3rd, 1 out, in the 3rd

grounder to CI, decides to take it himself and then throws wide to first, pulling HGH off the bag.

run scores, 2-0 toronto.

[joyofsox]

ha ha -- passedballa!

2nd and 3rd now. c'mon vernon.

[joyofsox]

wells lines a single to right -- sierra "plays it on a hop"

2 more in, 4-0 jays

nice.

[Who The Hell is Stan Papi]

I need picture-in-picture-in-picture.

Maybe the Jays can make having to check in on YES moot soon.

[pedroesmuymacho]

Clement is due. The bats are due. Any questions???

[normstalls]

thank u vernon...at least there is one guy on the Jays who isnt completely grabbing his ankles this series.

Come on MattyC!! We need a solid outing today. 3 of 4 from the Asshats would be nice.

[boxos]

had a great 3 days in Toronto this past week. two Ortiz-fueled wins and a sloppy game.

hope Toronto will respond in kind and take at least one from the Yankees.

at the game last night and what an atmosphere. play-offs start in september. for all the fans jumping on the David Ortiz bandwagon, remember, we also have the greatest hitter in baseball playing for us and he will take us through September

[joyofsox]

btw, "plays it on a hop" is code for a fielder slowing up on a line drive, making absoluetly no attempt to dive, and acting as though the ball simply fell too far in from of him to make any kind of play on.

most commonly used by sterling and kay in the late 90s for paul o'neill.

if i had a dime for everytime those jokers said "o'neill plays it on a hop" while i could see (on tv) him letting a catchable ball fall for a single, i'd be writing this post on a nice big mega-yacht somewhere.

i don't think i ever saw o'neill dive for a balll in like 6 years -- before EI came along, i watched the yanks almost every night.

Yah, need a split-screen or a screen divided into quarters, to be able to follow all the important games this afternoon. Sox v. A's, the Pats, the MFY's, and Cleveland/KC game (although most likely know the outcome of that).

Shit, Randall Gay just went down with an injury - ankle...

[Shea Hillenbagwell]

Jays give two right back on A-rod homerun. Watch Ted Lilly completely suck it up after dominating the Red Sox so many times.

[joyofsox]

shit -- no nesn. it's fox sports west with ray fosse and ?

[normstalls]

woulda been tempted to ibb mcslappy and let the lefty face HGHiambi...

of course hindsight is 20/20

come on lily you big puss, buckle down and protect this lead

[LateRally]

Cleveland/KC game (although most likely know the outcome of that)

It'd be nice if the Royals could just take one of these games. Is that too much to ask? ONE game?

Jays give two right back on A-rod homerun

Arod's making a hard charge for the MVP as well. He knows it's on the line.

[normstalls]

injury delay in TOR..anyone watching got details?

EDIT - wright out, Leiter in

Tee off Jays!

Edited by normstalls, 18 September 2005 - 01:10 PM.

[onesoxyladee]

Good way to start the game.

Come on Clement, damnit!

[mostman]

Wright out. What happened?

[NYCSox]

Damnit Clement - WTF?

Edit: Get someone up and ready NOW. Nice pitching Matt.

Edited by NYCSox, 18 September 2005 - 01:13 PM.

[CR67dream]

Nice fucking job, Clement. Cut the shit and end this NOW.

[reggiecleveland]

Clement continues to gag, pussy

[joyofsox]

yo, matt, why don't you try, um, GETTING AN OUT!

[Shea Hillenbagwell]

If the Sox make the playoffs- who would be in the rotation? Arroyo or Clement?

[bosox4283]

Great start to the game. It inspires confidence.

[reggiecleveland]

Wright hit by broken bat. Helps Yanks imho since they can bring in a lefty, jays p[latoon a lot.

We should yanks this pussy fucking guy is going to end this game in the 1st.

[scotian1]

Gawd, Clement look terrible right now. STOP THE BLEEDING!

[onesoxyladee]

Seems to me Nixon could have made that play. I'm sorry, but this has been a horrific inning, and there's still nobody out -- he needs to try to catch that.

[Pearl Wilson]

Please stop the bleeding!

[normstalls]

are you kidding me???

what a puss!!
get a pair of balls dude and learn how to pitch in a pennant race!!!

pathetic outing....i want DLowe back!!

[reggiecleveland]

He is doing a good job at getting those hammered foul strikes

[bosox4283]

Warm up Dinardo. Clement has nothing today.

[joyofsox]

A's treating Clement worse than John Wilkes Booth.

[CR67dream]

God damn sonofafucking bitch get some goddamn outs NOW.

[Worst Trade Evah]

Point Dusty Baker

[NYCSox]

Unfuckingreal. Nice way to choke on it guys. We need the lousy Jays to hold on just to stay 1 1/2 up.

Edit: Please bring in someone. Anyone.

Edited by NYCSox, 18 September 2005 - 01:17 PM.

[reggiecleveland]

Pull this fucking guy Tito we can't wait for this clown to find himself

[CR67dream]

All star my ass.....

[Shea Hillenbagwell]

5 hits to start the game. Nice. Is Clement coming out anytime soon? Where is Jeremi Gonzalez?

[CaptainLaddie]

Gahahhhjh.

[reggiecleveland]

Point Dusty Baker

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

So True.

He is this years Javier vasquez

[normstalls]

this is beyond pathetic

[DeltaForce]

This is painful. Thanks, Matt, for coming up huge when the heat was on.

Thank God we got rid of the Dominican guy.
