Use the comments to this entry as your own personal Gameday open thread. These open threads have been fun so far – so I’ll keep ‘em up as long as y’all are interested in having them.






Ian, have I told you I love you recently?
DP DP, woot.
Has anyone on the Angels even reached second safely besides the homer?
Choco – Nope!
MasKKKKerson looked fantastic today. I love him.
Awesome debut for the young sinkerballer
Nice debut for Masterson! Now bullpen, hold the game for him please.
Nice job, Justin!
I’ll leave the video of the bullpen band for our absent hostess.
Awww, Rick looks like a baby.
Wow. The Tigers won a game?
Wow… Justin is AWESOME!!
I think he’s already married though.
Holy Coco puffs
Nice move by Hunter.
I wish they’d show all the footage of Rick walking down the tunnel…
WOW, he gave that one a ride.
Haha, you know Manny would’ve probably only made a single off of that one.
Choco – Justin’s married, openly very religious, and is on par with Wake and Casey in terms of niceness.
I see we have similar taste–Jacoby and Justin…
Masterson’s debut:
6 IP, 2 hits, 1 run, 1 earned, 4 walks, 4 strikeouts, 1 HR allowed, 95 pitches of which 58 were for strikes.
Coco Puffs like stealing third
10 groundballs (including one DP), 3 flyballs, 4 Ks (all swinging).
Coco steals third… again?
Coco sure is making himself valuable today.
is this on Gameday right now?
i thought every game was on gameday
Oh, LOOGY…
GET BATTERS OUT. If they blow this for Masterson, I’ll be sad.
Nice to see Francona pull the trigger when needed.
Exactly, fc. I’m sure he’d love to get this W for Masterson.
Come on, MDC!
can someone send me the link? I’m a little lost here…
Bootcheck? I know a girl whose last name is Butichek (pronounced, unfortunately, “booty-check”).
Hey, Bootcheck is up in the bullpen!
Geez. Please get some people out!
Okay, I was gone for a couple minutes.
Liza- Who else do you like? We can compare notes. ;) Justin Masterson is like my dream boy. Since he’s married and I respect that then I want a guy just like him. :)
That is some EPIC chin hair on MDC there. I didn’t notice it before…
Lyndsay: here you go
Boo. A 1 run game now.
I come home from school to see bases loaded, nobody out. :[
but Oki is up!
Choco – Outfielders and pitchers, mainly–on the Sox, Jacoby, Drew, Jed (!), Clay, Justin (!!), Okie, and Pap; from the Sox farm system, Kielty, Moss, Wagner, Jackson, and Bowden; and on other MLB teams, Vladi Guerrero, Roy Halladay, Jesse Litsch, and Huston Street.
Mostly just Jacoby and Justin, though. (And Street.)
Back to the game, though, this is kind of horrifying. C’mon, Okieee!
wait – whats MDC doing in? I thought he came down with the plague too?
Figgins is definitely one batter I would not want in this situation…
NOT HAVING FUN
FUG.
Lyndsay – He’s better now.
FUG FUG FUG FUG FUG FUG FUG FUG.
Because Piney’s not here–I totally don’t trust Okie in the clutch…
Vladi, this is the part where you ground out.
Damn.
…I lied. I thought the bases were already loaded.
COME ON BULLPEN!
There you go, Oki. Big K!
OKIEEEE
Fugging FINALLY.
THANK YOU OKI
CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP!!!!!!!!!
Favorite Red Sox/ MLB players in general: 1. Jacoby 2. Justin 3. Lowell
Favorite MLB player that’s never been on the Red Sox: 1. Vlad Guererro 2. Grady Sizemore 3. Jack Hannahan
Favorite Paw Sox/MiLB players in general: 1. George Kottaras 2. Brandon Moss 3. Junior Spivey
C’mon guys! Double play maybe? Anything to end this inning…. Ugh.
this plague is confusing me. MDC misses one game, meanwhile Varitek is apparently on his deathbed still. how long has he been out, like 2 weeks?
um…ok i went away for like 2 minutes and they scored FOUR runs???
Good grief…I almost wish I hadn’t peeked back in. (sighs and goes back to her medical charts…)
Oh crap! I hope Yoouk is okay!!
That looked PAINFUL… both knees, the ankle, and the shoulder?
OUCH
