This is your only chance to watch the Sox take on the Yanks this weekend without having to endure Tim McCarver or Joe Morgan. Enjoy it while it lasts. Anyone else hoping for a repeat appearance from the hawk?
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.
GREAT. Clay, calm down and get through it – you’ll be okay.
Devils – Agreed. NOT at Fenway. Anywhere else but Fenway.
AH.
no, stoppp.
calm down Clay.
Oh fuck. STOP THROWING BALLS.
This happens far too often. Once he gets stuck in one of these jam situations, he gets nervous and his control suffers.
Lopez..in the pen?!
oh no..
Javy’s up in the pen, according to the radio…
It never ceases to amaze me how a fabulous pitching outing can go SO wrong SO quickly.
NO LOPEZ. NOOOO LOPEZZZZ.
YES DP. Yay Casey!
(That was a lot of caps…)
(waves back) Hi! YEAH! Double play!
Nicee Casey!
If I were Tek, I wouldn’t have Clay use that fastball too much. He doesn’t have great command of it in comparison to his breaking balls. On the other hand, I wouldn’t want to overuse the changeup and the curveball as strikeout pitches because the hitters would then learn them…
THANK GOD FOR SEAN CASEY.
Thank you Casey!
SEAN CASEY! all is forgiven from saturday in toronto. ;D
1863, the Devs are on a 4-min power-play, but it’s still tied 0-0. Zach Parise is so awesome. Someone just whacked him in the face with a stick and his two front teeth fell out (seriously, he was holding them in his hand!) Now (two minutes later), he is back on the ice! This reminds me of Dustin with his broken hand…brave little players!
I heart Sean Casey.
I wonder what kind of dental plan the NHL has?
They are? (crosses her fingers) Goals would be nice, guys…
I love it when players go out there like that – it shows effort. (I’ve taken tests terribly sick, but that’s not even close!)
Oregon State is up 5-0 in the bottom of the first inning. If Clay needs to relax, he could probably get a good laugh from the inevitable Jacoby-Jed banter.
Pirate flag sighting in the bullpen!!!
Nice try Youk!
I’m keeping track of the OSU/Stanford game, too–the funniest part is how Stanford sent three to the plate and then OSU got five runs.
The starter was out after pitching 0.2 innings, too.
now might be a good time to point out that WANG IS THROWING A NO-HITTER! did you all hear that? NO HITS!
;P
JD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DREWWWWWWWWWW
Yeah!
JAY DEE DREWWWWWWWWWWWW
JD JD JD….on fire!
YES! TIE GAME!
Way to mention it was a no-no! That works every single time!
Timlin almost caught that with his towel.
YEAH! Way to go JD!
WORKS EVERY TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D
Hey, thanks, Jenny!
Also, I absolutely love JD Drew. I think I have to shout that to the rooftops now. Maybe nobody’ll glare at me/look at me disbelieving me this year.
HBD to the big guy
PAPELASS COMMERCIAL
Cocoooo
Things aren’t looking too good for Bowden…Portland down 3-0. Here’s his line:
Player IP H R ER BB SO HR ERA
Bowden 4.1 5 3 2 2 4 1 3.00
Yeah Buch!
Stanford in the process of coming back in the top of the second. It’s now 5-3 OSU.
This game is making me laugh so freaking hard, if only for the mental images it’s giving me of Jed and Jacoby bickering.
Tek’s face!!!
FUG. Oh well.
Timlin, yea!!!!!!
Timlin up in the pen! LOVE.
Hideki Matsui.
HATEINTENSE, INTENSE DISLIKE.oi, no scoring.
No one knows that wall like Manny :)
(facepalms) Clay needs to be pulled. He’s tiring.
Thank goodness for a precipitous bounce off the Monster.
c’mon stickbug, CALM DOWN. you’re OK!
Ah, I really, really like Matsui.
Come on Stickbug!!

HATEIt’s not doing the strikethrough thing. Oh well.
YES. That’s the way to get it done, Clay.
If he makes it through six with only one run, I’ll be very pleased…
*wipes brow*
