Papi will sit, Manny will DH, Jacoby will take LF and Cora may come off the bench as the Sox try to take the series victory from the Yankees tonight.
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.
MLB MONTAGE MLB MONTAGE
I was hoping to catch a glimpse of Evan Longoria in there…he’s been called up, and I’m so excited!
Ahhhhhh…finally time for baseball. We had the Masters on this afternoon that my husband was watching while I was working. Now, baseball! I won’t be online much–going to BBQ some new york steaks (ha! just thought of the irony–going to torch new york…heehee…or am I just really, really tired?).
GO SOX!
OH, did anyone read the story of of the Yanks digging up Papi’s jersey? That is too funny.
Saw the SF Giants won. cool.
ha! They showed the shot of A-Rod trying to slap the ball.
Punk.
Hey, just checking in. Will be in the other room watching TV for the most part, just like last night, but will be back here intermittently.
I hope the rest does Papi some good.
They left out his purse
People make a lot more of the Sox/Yankees rivalry than they need to, I think, but I still love the montages and promos and stuff they do for the games.
BATEBAW GAM!
I just need to say this – if you haven’t read this article, read it now. It’s about Jacoby, one of his best friends in the system, and a mohawk, amongst other things.
I’ve seen that photoshop with A-Rod’s purse. heeheee
Great article, 1863, thanks.
Cracked me up the Jacoby called Jed “kid.”
so tempted to mute this …
GIDP … GIDP … GIDP …
(does her Japanese homework) What I wouldn’t do to grab Daisuke and get him to do this for me…writing kanji’s annoying.
A daburu purei would be awesome, Daisuke.
(grumbles)
dice! quit nibbling! GO AFTER THEM!
C’mon Dice, keep it together.
YES! Daburu purei! Nice!
yeah!
… and ARah GIDP’d. bless him.
I’m I the only one weird enough to be playing this right now? Or is anyone else just as crazy?

I have that song, but I’m not playing it right now…
Not to be shallow, but I always forget how pretty Jacoby is until I see him on TV.
JD’s hitting third. I’m totally loving this.
Jacoby: GET YOUR WEIGHT OFF YOUR HIND LEG. Uppercut swing, hun.
Cool…I seriously thought I was the only one.
Or, you know, walk.
If he gets walks like this, he’ll never hit below leadoff again.
hey all, yay for sunday night baseball…is antone else missing remdog and orsillo
I love the Pac-10 one-two (that is to say, Jacoby and Dustin). It’s so effective. (briefly fantasizes about Jed hitting third, but knows that J.D. is probably a better choice for now…)
FASTER THAN A DEER
YAY! Go Jacoby!
Hey, since this thing is sponsored by Taco Bell…nah.
What the HELL was that pitch?
I kinda like Hughes.
D’oh!
Pedroia’s striking out a lot more than he did last year.
I’ve noticed that, too. Someone check his eyes…
This J.D. batting third business is kind of cool. Such a turnaround from last year!
New to this blog, and I LOVE it!
…I’ll take it.
And heeere cooooomes Maaaanny!
Starlightmusic – Hi! :) We don’t bite. Are you a Sox fan?
Oh, I just remembered! Don’t be surprised to see Jacoby with an interesting hairstyle in a couple of days – Stanford swept Oregon State this weekend.
C’mon, Manny…
Of course. Is there any other kind of baseball?
Steph – seriously? If he does get that hairstyle…
Starlightmusic – Just checking. We wouldn’t bite even if you were a Yankees fan.
Yes. They swept them. I was a little surprised, too, but very, very amused.
Ooh, yay for new people! The more commenters here the better – it’s a quickly growing little community now!
mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnny
Manny!
Yes, YeS, YEEESSS!
MANNY! YES!
Nice one Manny!
LET ME SAY:
as fc is becoming acutely aware of in our private chat…
JOE FREAKIN MORGAN CALLING THIS GAME IS MAKING ME WANT TO BREAK STUFF.
OH MY GOD.
The inanity is dripping out of my tv screen, slithering across the floor, up my chair and choking the life out of me.
Super Man(ny)!
Yay, sac fly! Good job, Youk!
Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuk
