Hey everyone!
Good news on Jacoby from the radio – they said he played catch today and should be back tomorrow…
Hey Everyone!!!
So ready for this game. Havent seen the sox play since last week. I’ve missed them!
I’m just wondering something y’all.
Why can’t we be friends?
Oh shakey wakey. I love you dearly, but no.
Love,
Avery
To everyone else: Hello :)
Nicely done, Dustin!
Hiya folks. Just walked in the door after a very hectic day at the office. I am SO ready for a good game to help me unwind…
Ian, that was an awesome video :)
Spanks.
Is it me or does the camera angle from behind look different?
Steph they need Jacoby or JD back so Crisp can rest his knee
Hughes is out until July for the Yanks with a stress fracture in his rib.
Definitely. They said Jacoby will probably be in tomorrow – they were talking about him being healthy on the radio – so that should cover Coco. (I don’t want to think about having to go to Pawtucket again…)
Also, Phil Hughes is out until at least July, apparently…
Hey guys!
Hi everyone….no paper to write tonight, in fact, no more papers ever! (can you tell i’m excited)…..looking foward to a good game!
…wow, apparently the radio and the TV announced the Phil Hughes bit at exactly the same time.
Ooh, Kristina – congratulations! My English paper’s due date has been changed to Tuesday (he decided to make it the final), but I’m still working on my history one…
No Steph they haven’t said anything about it during the game. I saw it earlier this afternoon and was just saying it.
That’s funny though they said it at the same time on the radio.
Abreu just hit a 3-run jack in the 1st
They did – I was writing that one comment, and when I added the Phil Hughes bit as an afterthought and posted yours came up one comment before mine. Serendipity, I guess…
Nice goin’ Mikey!
yeah thank god, i would celebrate, but finishing the paper at 3:15 am + getting up at 6 am for work = very tired kristina….and on a baseball note, Yeah Mikey!
(ceases to function)
Lugo not in the lineup….hmmm…Jed looking to steal his job….go for it!
Damnit, Jed!
…I tend to tough-love him a bit. Yeeeaaah.
Okay, for any of you who score games, I have a question. (I’d ask my dad but he’s at work). If the first baseman catches a groundball and throws it to the pitcher who is covering the base, would it be scored as 3-1?
Yes choco that is the correct scoring
Thanks, Ian
RemDawg is all over Don again about not ironing his suits
Youkilis sweats out of his head more than any human being I’ve ever seen.
C’mon guys…let’s get something going here!
He’s got no hair to absorb it all
…or not.
TG- oh my goodness, I know!! when he was first up to bat he had beads of sweat coming down his face, and he took off his helmet and his head was like glistening.
Is he totally bald already at his age, or does he just choose to shave it all?
Dude- he came up to bat in the 1st, barely any time has gone by for him to work up a sweat, plus it’s 50 degrees out, and he’s sweating like a stuck pig.
Eeeeep, got a quick college obligation! Be back in a minute…
Tigers roared back to take 4-3 lead
Hey all. I just underwent a 5 hour media blackout(for one of my finals) and I’m kind of out of the loop. Anything happen? Oh and what in the hell is up with the centerfield camera?!
…or not. Apparently this college obligation is being delayed.
Yay Detroit!
Piney, how did the media blackout project go? Did you survive?
I was wondering the same thing Piney. My only guess would be that htey are doing this for the knuckleball.
College obligation on! (runs to her stupid floor meeting)
WOW! Did everyone else hear the Mike Nesmith acoustic/country version of “Listen To The Band” playing on the Fenway PA? The PA person has excellent taste in music.
oh Timmeah…please get out of this
Oh, and hi, Piney! Welcome back to the land of the living! :)
oh thank you Manny
Stop scaring us like that Manny.
IF i knew who Mike Nesmith is I’d say yes.
Yay Manny!
(is back)
