Sox -Yankee have faced each other 51 times

 

Sox have won 26

Yankee won 25

 

Kenny Lofton plays tonight...

 

Bucky Dent has just thrown out First Pitch.......

 

This is the end

Beautiful friend

This is the end

My only friend, the end

 

Of our elaborate plans, the end

Of everything that stands, the end

No safety or surprise, the end

I'll never look into your eyes...again

 

Can you picture what will be

So limitless and free

Desperately in need...of some...stranger's hand

In a...desperate land

 

Lost in a Roman...wilderness of pain

And all the children are insane

All the children are insane

Waiting for the summer rain, yeah

 

kick out the Jams Yankees

I have a question that has been bothering me for over a week now.

 

Can somebody please explain to me why the Yanks keep throwing strikes to Ortiz?!

Would somebody please display the brains and balls to pitch around this guy?

He's the entire boston offense yet the Yankees continue to feed him fastballs over the plate.

How f'ing long is it going to take these guys to figure it out?

8 games is my guess.

Ortiz is locked in along the similar line that Beltran is for Houston.

 

That guy is on fire........

Torre hasn't managed well throughout this series. The decision to leave Gordon in the game after starting the 8th by surrendering a HR to Ortiz on his second pitch only to go to Rivera for 2 innings after the game was terminally !@#$ed up told me all I needed to know.

 

Why not just go to Rivera from the start? That would have ended the series right there.

 

Maybe Grady Little touched him or something.

I'm not a big fan of leaving closers in for 2 full innings. Tonight Izzy got touched up in the 9th and almost blew it for us.

 

That's probably why Gordon pitched the 8th.

HE PITCHED 2 INNINGS ANYWAY.

 

Isringhausen isn't Mariano Rivera. Nowhere near a valid comparison.

Fox didn't give us a single close up replay of the play at the plate. How am I supposed to B word about a call if there is no close up???

You can complain about Dale Sveum's horrible decision to send Damon on that play.

 

BTW, is there anyone in the history of baseball whose name is pronounced more differently than it's spelled than that guy? Maybe Doug Mientkiewicz? Either way, he's the Sade of baseball.
