    I’m having problems with the site too, other Lindsay.

    ok I feel good…Lester is good thru 3. now let’s just see if the lineup can freakin get some runs in and not waste another good start.

  10. 2008 April 29 at 8:03 pm

    (would feel good if her exams didn’t start next week) I do like how Jon looks so far, but the offense is the key here…

    Just curious, those of you who are actually watching the game, does Tek look like he’s feeling better?

    I wish our guys wouldn’t swing at the first pitch.

  14. 2008 April 29 at 8:05 pm
    Lindsay permalink

    I dont think that he does. He still looks sick and weak. Just my opinion though. =P

    doc’s throwing first pitch strikes pretty consistently tonight, so i’m more ok w/ first pitch swings than i sometimes am. ;D doc’s only walked 6 in 40+ innings this year (thanks, remy). o.0

  16. 2008 April 29 at 8:06 pm

    Awww, Rochester’s finally on the board. Still 3-1 Pawtucket in the bottom of the sixth…

    Im not sure wat that video has to do with Red Sox. but that crash is pretty crazy! and only a broken ankle? wow, thats impressive!

    Mikey, please dont dive anymore! lol.

  19. 2008 April 29 at 8:08 pm

    Sunbeam in right!

  20. 2008 April 29 at 8:09 pm

    Moss is in the game for J.D. Drew

    god, that was a wicked cute cora/lowell moment we just witnessed. I LOVE NESN.

    1863– how do u watch the Paw Sox games?

  23. 2008 April 29 at 8:09 pm

    …ooh, lemme explain. Sunbeam is Brandon Moss. I read somewhere that he once tried to put a peanut butter sandwich in the toaster and earned himself the nickname ‘Sunbeam.’

    So what’s up with J.D.? Anyone know?

  24. 2008 April 29 at 8:10 pm
    Lindsay permalink

    Drew looked fine to me..but at least we get to see Moss! =P

    cold, wet weather cant be helping Tek much.

    and I thought the same thing about Mike…which is the same thign I think every time Tom Brady runs the ball. no don’t do that, you’ll get hurt!

    Neil Diamond on AI tonight. We always watch it (that’s the nice thing about the games starting at 4pm).

    JD hurt?

  27. 2008 April 29 at 8:10 pm

    I have them on Gameday (I hate that program, but it serves my purposes…). Go to MiLB.com (www.minorleaguebaseball.com) and check the International League games – you should be able to Gameday them.

    Finally, they pulled Tejera! I would’ve done that earlier…it’s 3-2 PawSox now.

  28. 2008 April 29 at 8:10 pm

    They haven’t announced anything yet Steph. The dynamic duo think it’s a leg issue

    JD Drew stubbed his toe, so he’s gonna go put a bandaid on it. he’s out for the night.

    For anyone else who is having troubles with this site. ( I am offering to relieve a bit of texas Gal’s bandwidth issues)

    Yup, David Archuleta’s singing “Sweet Caroline”.

  32. 2008 April 29 at 8:12 pm

    Hmmm. That would make sense, though. I’m hearing nothing on the radio so far…

    85% of the Blue Jays look like they’re taking a dump at the plate…

  35. 2008 April 29 at 8:13 pm

    How wonderful is Youk?

    Band-Aid – I wouldn’t be surprised!

  36. 2008 April 29 at 8:13 pm

    k so we got Pleats, Ortiz and Manny…lets get some baserunners!!!

  39. 2008 April 29 at 8:15 pm

    Oh – this is a bit random, but Clay graduates from prospectdom this Friday! (That means our top two prospects will be Justin Masterson and Jed Lowrie. Ph34r.)

  40. 2008 April 29 at 8:15 pm

    come on sox bats. BATS I SAY.

    hey, anyone see the Kelli Pedroia story in the Globe today? I’m just curious – do any of the Red Sox wives actually work? they seem to be omni-present and have a lot of free time on their hands.

    Wally cruelty.

  45. 2008 April 29 at 8:17 pm

    I read it last night on the Globe when it first went up. I linked to it earlier this morning.

  46. 2008 April 29 at 8:18 pm

    Youk is the only one with a hit so far tonight. The rest of the lineup needs to catch up…

  47. 2008 April 29 at 8:19 pm
    blood and whiskey permalink

    wtf.

  48. 2008 April 29 at 8:20 pm

    FAIL. At least Manny worked a count.

  49. 2008 April 29 at 8:20 pm
    Lyndsay permalink

    so since it seems like we may never get any hits off Holliday this season…I am hopeful that Toronto’s bullpen totallly sucks.
