Never thought I'd live to see a militant lesbian quoted admiringly on this board. Oh wait, you guys quote Lucchino all the time.

See what I did there?

Flo Kennedy sez: a woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.

I say: it really all depends on the salinity and the derailleur.

[Kilgore A. Trout]

I would give anything for one of these kids to ask something like "Was Manny a huge asshole like my Daddy says he was?"

[judyb]

70 pitches to get 10 outs?

At what point does Bob McClure's seat get warm?

Lester's been doing this since long before McClure got here.

[Snowplow]

Jon has become Joe Saunders.

[SoxScout]

Bring in Atchison, he is the only guy with balls.

[BunnzMcGinty]

Get yourself sacrificed to BABIP?

If it gets us a win against these assholes, sacrifice away.

[deconstruction]

"That's the punch-out pitch, 3-2 cutter"

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhahahahahah

It was a good pitch, but, yeah...

DOUBLE PLAY pitch though!

[Turrable]

What the hell were Thorn and Palmer just doing? I flipped back from the Celtics game and they're laughing while showing Don and Eck?

[ngruz25]

That's why he throws the cutter! Why strike people out when you can walk them and then get a double play!

[Savin Hillbilly]

So did the ump just tell Lester to stuff it?

[Kilgore A. Trout]

Bring in Atchison, he is the only guy with balls.

Oh, Lester's had plenty of his own tonight.

[Rudy Pemberton]

Jon has become Joe Saunders.

We wish

Anybody who knows Mona gets a reprieve. Adrienne Rich agrees, fwiw.

Not my call, and it appears Sprowl is feeling merciful this evening.

May his good will please BABIP and find space in the gaps for our hitters.

[deconstruction]

Guy was at 10 K/9 a few years ago. Yup.

Merciful??? He offed someone before the game started

This is a good point I hadn't thought of. A complex set of posts full of tension, and contradictions. It offers hope even as it is frustrating in execution.

Reminds me of a certain team.

Suicide by Dope.

Who is this McClure you speak of?

I've heard talk of him before.

[SoxScout]

I've heard talk of him before.

ask this guy

[Reverend]

SOmeone more knowledgable about the international game:

Do Asians really all have some sort of hesitation in their windup or is some producer freaking out about Eck right now?

Or is that not an "or" question?

[Sprowl]

Who is this McClure you speak of?

I've heard talk of him before.

He is the dugout's resident 'stache.

[Gene Conleys Plane Ticket]

Only the bottom of the 4th.

Feels like it's about the 7th.

[kieckeredinthehead]

Why don't any of the Red Sox pitcher's have swing-and-miss stuff? Besides Bard, I suppose. It's gotta be the cutter, right?

Doubront leads the league in K/9

[LeoCarrillo]

Shoppach has a .250 BA and .358 OBP. Who knew.

[Sprowl]

Andino looked positively Pedroian on that play.

[SoxScout]

Shoppach has a .250 BA and .358 OBP. Who knew.

Wait till his BABIP drops below .470

[deconstruction]

pedroia wouldn't have made that play.

To quote Billy Madison when talking to the Lunch Lady, "Lady, stop! You're scaring us."
But that's just because I had to look up derailleur.

[SoxScout]

OMG AGAIN

AVILES IS THE WORST BASE RUNNER IN BASEBALL HISTORY

[fineyoungarm]

Dan Akroyd is GM of the O's?

[InsideTheParker]

The Red Sox stink, for the most part.

[kieckeredinthehead]

Is that the third time this year?

[kartvelo]

This fucking team.

[Eck'sSneakyCheese]

His calves weigh him down

[AimingForYoko]

I missed it, what happened? I presume it sucked.

[kieckeredinthehead]

Doubront leads the league in K/9

Also, Hill, Mortensen, Padilla and Aceves are top 30

[judyb]

Doubront leads the league in K/9

He's still new, though, whatever this team does to ruin their pitchers hasn't gotten him yet.

[budcrew08]

Listening to the radio at work, and Joe gets so disappointed. Aviles gets picked off and his voice is like, 'you stupid idiot!'

[fineyoungarm]

I missed it, what happened? I presume it sucked.

Sox refusing to allow O's to throw game.

[SoxScout]

Mike Aviles has 14 SB and 5 CS the last 2 years.

Aviles was picked off base 7 times last year, that is #3 already this.

[PhilPlantier]

Now that this abortion of a shortstop is coming back down to earth, are we allowed to stop washing his balls?

[Sprowl]

MiddleB knocks it down, picks it up, throws it over. He's like Beltre without the happy feet.

[budcrew08]

pedroia wouldn't have made that play.

/cccppad guy

I think it was pccp.

That's Latin, Doll.

Sprowl is an educated man.

Glad you're not feeling too hyperbolic.

nice change

Oh. Aviles refusing to let me like him again.

[dwainw]

Eck: "I watch so much baseball now, I get confused." Gotta love it.

Thank you, Jon, that inning was desperately needed.

It is my object in life to send y'all running for the Google.

Not until they're clean, really clean.
