    Dustin’s college stats. I’m not seeing anything about catching here, but…

    I don’t trust Jacoby in the clutch….

    LOL at that pic of Dustin. He’s doing the “stick the chin at the camera” thing that I’ve seen so many “wee” guys do. Must make them think they look taller or something.

    Oh, I love that picture! It’s part of my “Jacoby Ellsbury picture slideshow” on my computer. I love it!

    C’mon Dustin!!!

    I like those last two pics, Steph. Really nice shots.

  10. 2008 April 23 at 9:57 pm

    Thanks! Wish I took them!

    Choco — I have a “Red Sox, mostly Dominicans” slideshow on mine. It keeps getting bigger and bigger…

  13. 2008 April 23 at 9:58 pm

    Those same Tigers?

    Nuuuuu, we lose. FAIL.

    18-6 HUH? Gotta check that box score.

    Dang…I can’t believe we…lost. Urgh. Well, there’s always tomorrow.

  15. 2008 April 23 at 9:59 pm

    awwww :(

  16. 2008 April 23 at 10:00 pm

    (is still in a ridiculously good mood) Masterson tomorrow – and my family’s coming to visit me for my birthday on Friday! Losing isn’t so bad when you’ve got your favorite pitching prospect making a start and you’re seeing people you haven’t seen in some time…

    You guys might wanna hold on, if Detroit just won 18 to 6 then the world may have stopped turning.

    Poo. We lose. Oh well. We did the best we could with everyone having the flu and achy body parts. :)

    Bethie, the scoreboard has that 18-6 in the 7th. So it could get more ridiculous.

  19. 2008 April 23 at 10:01 pm

    (goes off to finish up her homework, blasting Rick Astley) ‘Night, all!

    So Steph, in case I don’t get to poke my head in during tomorrow’s game (or you aren’t there either), have a wonderful birthday!

    Ahhhh…I see. That’s almost scary.

    I just saw the score pop up during the Yankees game and thought for sure it was over. Heh…..

  22. 2008 April 23 at 10:02 pm

    It’s actually on Friday…but thanks!

    Night Steph!

    Well, that’s what I meant — it will be your birthday before we’re both over here again, most likely. I’ll be here Friday night for sure.

  25. 2008 April 23 at 10:05 pm

    Ah, that makes sense! Sorry if I sound all stupid tonight – my sleep was limited last night. Thanks again!

    …and goodnight again, too!

    I do enjoy these game day chats. They are so enjoyable. :)

    Heading off to bed too. Gots lots of stuff to do tomorrow while I’m missing the ball game. :(

    Bye everyone!

    Too bad we lost the game. I wish tomorrow’s game were in the evening–will have to Gameday the game in between meetings.

    18…thanks for the Jacoby photos. I grabbed a copy for my daughter ;-)

    what the hell? I actually go to THE GAME and you guys are all postin pictures of Jacoby an’ shit?

    well…it was a subpar game. Every single game I take my 65 year old father to…they lose. what the hell?? and the biggest play of the game – Papi’s 2-run HR – what am I doing? it’s the one half-inning that I’m actually in the beer line, of course. I swear, every time there’s a big moment in a game…I’m, either in the bathroom or in some long food line. argghhh.

    oh, and I would like to report that during an Angels pitching change, Manny disappeared into the scoreboard. :-)

    well while I’m here…THIS is one my favorite Jacoby pictures.

    he’s just this beautiful superhuman he is….
