I'm ready to get this game started. I'm getting nothing done. Let's go Matt, step up and pitch well.

to borrow from some Chicago history, Score Early and Score Often!

[Chemistry Schmemistry]

Lineup per Jon Wallach EEI from Chicago

Damon
Edgar
Ortiz
Ramirez

Sorry - I typed what I heard. No excuse for failing to notice the lack of a 3B.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Mueller is batting eighth.

For Chicago...

Podsednik lf
Iguchi 2b
Dye rf
Konerko 1b
Everett dh
Rowand cf
Pierzynski c
Crede 3b

Contreras pitching. He has an even split, and Millar has just killed him in the past (1.867 OPS in only 14 plate appearances).

[YAZ]

I fear getting S & M'd today (Sveum'd and Millar'd).

[Maalox]

I'm ready-ready-ready to rock n' roll.

Win today.

[BoSoxLady]

Just win.

[SoxScout]

Papi Up

[LateRally]

Uh, so where the fuck is this game? LaRussa's dicking around with his pen, and poker is on as scheduled on ESPN2. Hello? ESPN? Anyone?

[gcapalbo]

Nice combover for Berman.

[Deweys New Stance]

Remember how much fun last year was?



WIN

[PaulinMyrBch]

Channel please.

[joyofsox]

get that last out izzy -- i wanna watch the real game

[mr guido]

In Boston area, channel 5 / ABC is carrying the game as well as ESPN (but is not showing the Cards/Pads game). Though it's kind of interesting to watch this little Padres comeback...

[15'sCementShoes]

What an awful at bat. Now let's go to Chicago.

[gcapalbo]

First inning and they're already all waving the white flag ? ^_^

[OilCanShotTupac]

KILL

[mr guido]

Don't feel bad San Diego. At least you have Pedro Astacio staring game 2.

Time to get our game started. Padres fans, stay on the line if you'd like to see what a real baseball team looks like.

[joyofsox]

berman discussing "big pappy"

what a douche.

[FungosWithJimy]

Let's grab the early momentum here and keep this crowd out of it.

[mr guido]

Shadows start about 10 feed in front of home plate. Should be an interesting day... to cream Jose Contreras.

[jtn46]

Don't hit balls at people. It turns out MLB calls those outs.

[LateRally]

Who's the color guy? He just said "if you give Chicago more than 3 outs per inning, you're going to be in trouble." Really?? No fucking way!

[Smiling Joe Hesketh]

Damons lines out to first on the second pitch.

Work the count please.

[jayclerm]

Let's give credit where credit is due...

Contreras is one great pitcher....


FOR ME TO POOP ON

[jtn46]

Phew. A little luck there.

[ragecage]

SAFE! Edgah with the bloop double.

[LateRally]

Nice, Renteria with a Jeter-esque bloop double just inside the RF line.

[CSteinhardt]

Is that zero, one, or two errors?

[Smiling Joe Hesketh]

RENT!

[gcapalbo]

Agressive move by Edgar... but he made it!

[Pearl Wilson]

Contreras and I have the same birthday! And he is probably older than me

Renteria!!!

[Angel Santos in Red]

SAFE!

Edgah gets it!

C'mon boys, don't squander it.

[CaptainLaddie]

The Rent was due.

[OilCanShotTupac]

WOW. My heart stopped when ER went for two. He shouldn't have gone - he should've been out.

[Wingo6]

Double on a blopper to right down the line. Come on Papi.

[TimNJsoxfan]

Know what pisses me off??

CBS gamecenter doesnt show season stats for pitchers and players. That pisses me off!

[mr guido]

Damon with a smash caught for an out, Renteria with a weak popup that goes for a double. They gonna walk Papi here?

[Joe D Reid]

[Titans Bastard]

Damons lines out to first on the second pitch.

Work the count please.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

If he finds a pitch he can hit that hard - please, swing away.

[Stu Nahan]

This is announcing crew is going to be incredibly bad.

[DLew On Roids]

Piazza's said more intelligent things in three batters than Sutcliffe has all season. Someone remind me why the Sutcliffes and Morgans still get work.

[OilCanShotTupac]

3-1 ORTIZ KILL

[LateRally]

Adebisi nibbling here. "Unintentional intentional walk" coming up.

BTW Guillen is a moron for openly discussing his strategy to pitch around Papi.

[joyofsox]

how hard is it to say "pop - e"

people have been calling him this for more than a year

[Joe D Reid]

Damn splitter.

[CaptainLaddie]

Contreras is lookin' nasty.

[jtn46]

Man, nasty pitch there.

[Smiling Joe Hesketh]

Dammit.

[LateRally]

Fuck, Papi K's on ball 4.

[gharper]

Papi goes down on ball 4.
