    Good, Ian, more baseball goodness for me to enjoy tonight!

  3. 2008 April 24 at 2:20 pm

    Very fancy, Ells.

    DID YOU SEE MY BOY’S SLIDING CATCH?! I’m victory dancing!! AHH I love him.

  5. 2008 April 24 at 2:22 pm

    Choco – Your boy? We may have to work out a deal here…

  6. 2008 April 24 at 2:22 pm

    Ells and Crisp chasing the same ball, Ells moves in front of Coco and grabs it with a sliding catch.

    Hm, pause for thought.

    LOL at Liza and Choco!

  8. 2008 April 24 at 2:23 pm

    Whoops, that wasn’t meant to sound so mean. :P

    Way to stay alive, Jacoby.

    I guess we can share… You get him on weekends and I get him on weekdays? Or something along those lines? ;)

    Ooh, good observation, fc. I hope that’s the way it turns out. Even though I wish no harm for Coco.

  12. 2008 April 24 at 2:26 pm

    Hm. I get Monday-Sunday, you get what’s left? ;)

    Pedieeee.

    Yeah, when fc said that I was going to post that the moment was rife with symbolism…but couldn’t think of the words at the time.

  14. 2008 April 24 at 2:28 pm

    C’mon, Mannyyyyyy.

  15. 2008 April 24 at 2:28 pm

    Or not.

  16. 2008 April 24 at 2:29 pm

    …well, this is a change from “MY NAME IS ERNIE BOCH JR COME ON DOWN”…

    (sigh)…and now I have to get back to the tasks at hand. Will keep these two windows going in the background and check in after a bit. Enjoy, those of you who have time to follow the whole thing.

    Monday through Sunday?! Ahahaha.
    I was going through the days of the week trying to figure out which days I get. It took me a while. But yeah, that was like the deal where we gave up Kason Gabbard and David Murphy (I think… was there another guy too?) for Gagne.

    You have to spit after you say that name.

    Gagne.

    Ptou. Ptou.

    That was a nice play by Masterson.

  21. 2008 April 24 at 2:37 pm

    I don’t believe it it’s Jim Rice.

    Jules and ecl, i’m working on it now. I’ll let y’all know when it’s up.

  22. 2008 April 24 at 2:38 pm

    This is four innings in a row that Masterson’s got two outs, allowed a baserunner to get to first, and got the third out.

    Not too shabby, Rick!

    My mother hadn’t seen the DP commercial yet and is still chuckling over it. “At least he’s still a pretty good baseball player.”

  24. 2008 April 24 at 2:39 pm

    Can you say “fastball to first”?

    C’mon, Lugie.

  25. 2008 April 24 at 2:41 pm

    THE RETURN OF THE BULLPEN BAND!

    Aardvark seems like a good addition…

  26. 2008 April 24 at 2:42 pm

    And the band keeps playing.

    Nice one Coco.

    Abby I have all 3 of Dustin’s commercials here.

  27. 2008 April 24 at 2:42 pm

    If that hadn’t bounced up it’d be three bases, easy.

    Coco! That was divine.

    As much as I love Jacoby, I really do like Coco and will be sad to see him go if he does indeed go.

    And then you go and steal third. Yay!

  29. 2008 April 24 at 2:42 pm

    Well someone seems healthy.

    I love the Bullpen Band!!

    They should make an album and use the money to buy Beckett the ice cream machine.

  33. 2008 April 24 at 2:43 pm

    Cash money there and someone was missing Tek.

  34. 2008 April 24 at 2:43 pm

    Cash? I mean–Cash!

    Very smart of them to mic the bullpen.

  36. 2008 April 24 at 2:45 pm

    Aw, Jacoby.

    Yay for runs, though!

  37. 2008 April 24 at 2:46 pm

    Look, Cash is fine, and he’s doing a nice job, but he’s no Tek.

  38. 2008 April 24 at 2:48 pm

    Oh. Bye.

  39. 2008 April 24 at 2:51 pm

    MasKKKerson.

  40. 2008 April 24 at 2:53 pm

    I love Jacoby… but I’m jealous of the ballgirl.

    Rick looking good through the fifth…

  41. 2008 April 24 at 2:55 pm

    79 pitches through five, ftr. He had his fewest (11) in the fifth.

    Aww.

    I got curbsided by my boss for a few…stopping back by. Nice to see a couple more runs on the board. I can’t wait to watch the archives so I can see the bullpen band!

  46. 2008 April 24 at 3:00 pm

    Here is the video of RemDawg talking about Don Orsillo losing his cubicle for the non-NESN viewers.

    Mr Belding in the crowd

    So I’m in this meeting about a meeting (oh yes, that happens) and I find myself wondering how Masterson is doing.

    I’d LOVE video of the bullpen band.

    hint…hint…hint…

    Hey, Mr. Belding!

  50. 2008 April 24 at 3:04 pm

    Rick back in… jeez. Don’t shave his chin, Justin.

    At least MDC’s healthy.
