UGH. It’s bad enough he hit Sal “Marvelous Moustache” Fasano. Then that last at-bat was painful.

I’m way late on commenting, jenny – but totally agree. He also did a nice job avoiding divulging any of the specific details of the arrangement. He’s crafty, that one!

Thanks for the update! WHEW!
Good for them. Shows a lot about who they are as a team and family.

Shark- Its assumed, that, since they are playing, everything was resolved and they are going. Youk is going to give a PC in a little bit where he should confirm this.

Casey makes an out at 1st! Lugo and Cashie team up for a putout at the plate!

And, yes – per the Herald, they’re going to Japan.

Jacoby would have caught that ball hit by Wells.

Ok..I am surrounded by 8th graders who will not give me a second’s peace. Are they or are they not leaving today after this game?

It’ll be interesting to see how many Jays pitchers the Sox eat their way through today.

BTW – Manny’s little sad face addition makes me smile.

They have Poland Sprigs water in the dugout…I SEARCHED for that in FL and was never able to find it.

And JD- wear eyeblack so you don’t have to squint!

Nothing like a little unexpected controversy to liven things up.

I’m glad this is happening. Not because of any principles or anything like that. Just because it adds some spice to my day.

I want to say– I’m proud of my Sox. Standing up for the right thing. Always love a game, but seeing this sort of thing makes me happy.

I’m very very proud. They were doing the right thing.

Apparently when Dice-K left to go pitch in the minor league game, as he was walking out, he told the Japanese press, “I’ve been cut.” Awesome.

Interesting photos of the whole thing. http://www.beloblog.com/ProJo_Blogs/SoxBlog/archives/2008/03/photos_tension.html

Gotta love Manny(the sad face is what makes it)

By: Texas Gal

Texas Gal — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 17:27:04 +0000

Dice-K FTW!

Also: it is no coincidence that my new favorite Phillie is Casey Smith, I don’t think. I love all the Caseys!
