my favorite moment from yesterday (and beyond) so far – besides the EPIC tito/jonny hug right after the win last night – has been t.c. and eck interviewing jonny down on the field in the pregame tonight. eee. so calm, so collected, so loose about it all, the day after – unbelievably cute.
LESTER > SANTANA. ;D
Santana who?
My softball team lost yesterday and look what happened. We lost again today, so I’m hoping Masterson’s start is… good. ;)
Also, it’s deliciously ironic that it’s Lester who threw the no-no and Jacoby who saved it. I bet the Twins are mad right about now.
schill calls buchholz, pedroia, lester, and ellsbury the MOUNT RUSHMORE of “why the Red Sox have put themselves in a position to win, a lot, over the next decade.”
(!!!)
Dustin : Clay :: Jacoby : Jon
Masterson will have his work cut out for him, facing off against Meche – but I bet he and the rest of the team are jazzed up on an adrenaline high.
This is my first time seeing Masterson (I missed his first start because of Classes).
Hi all — this ought to be fun, despite my being so tired that I can hardly string a sentence together.
masterson-K! or something catchier! ;D
Darn it…
…
there goes the no-hitter.
That’s exactly what I was thinking, Jenny!
I think everyone’s a bit worn out from last night.
d.o., repeating his conversation with lester in the dugout before the game tonight:
d.o.: “did you sleep at all last night?:
jon lester: “not a wink.”
ME NEITHER, JONNY.
Hi everyone! I have had an absolutely horrible day and I won’t be able to watch the game. So, I’m saying Hi now before I give up and call it a night early!
So HI!!!
GO SOX!!
Hi Y’all!
Texy, I re-read (again) your beautiful piece on Lester’s no-no. It’s the best I’ve read on his achievement.
I’m excited to see Masterson tonight! And Colon tomorrow night! I was *really* hoping to see Beckett Friday, but it looks like Wake is getting the start.
DO/Remy said that Lester told them he didn’t sleep a wink last night. I bet! What a night!
I need to work, I’m sooooooooooooooooo far behind on my project, it’s not even funny.
Go Sox!
Curt on Tek…
It’s no coincidence that he’s now caught a record 4 no-hitters, trust me. I would BET, BIG MONEY, that I’d have been the 4th if I hadn’t shaken him off…
Schill, we’d bet right along with ya…
there goes gil meche’s no-hitter!
;D
Awww, Bethie — hugs to you. I hope the thunderstorms and tornadoes stayed away from you this time. I’m going to go to bed early too, i.e., right after the game.
Once more, I think Manny’s been jinxed by that huge 498 sign.
Ack, sorry I’m late…dinner! I apologize,
RickJustin…hey everyone….still tired from last nights extravaganza…so excited for Jon….and I love the reaction from his teamates, did anyone catch the article in the globe where Clay and Josh talked about how nervous they were….to cute….i love our team…..ok, on to tonight’s game =)
masterson-KK!
atta boy.
Yay! Rick Rolled! …er, I mean, two strikeouts?
jules – thank you!
dear baseball gods,
never let me take kevin youkilis for granted.
the end.
amen.
…dude, Tavarez actually accepted his assignment? I never would’ve guessed in a million years!
So Tavarez is going to Pawtucket. First I’d heard of that. WRKO just mentioned it.
Steph, GMTA! Or else you’re listening to WRKO too.
Yeah, I have WRKO…
YoYo in Pawtucket, huh? OK. That’s going to go well, I’m sure of it.
use cases are boring. ugh.
Tavarez is going to Pawtucket? That’s a shocker. really.
:: goes back to work ::
Blacked out of MLB.TV again. I can understand blacking out major games, but Kansas City? Why?

is there anything YOUK cannot do … ?
::adorations::
YoYo is going to the PawSox? Is this good or bad?
LOL! Yankees down 6-0 in the top of the FIRST!
Hi all. I’m a little late to the game but still riding very high from last night. Just incredible.
I’d love to see Masterson pitch for real. Instead of colored spheres from an invisible pitcher. With his Paperboy mugshot in the lefthand corner.
Kid’s a beast, isn’t he? Like… he’s massive!
Ouchie.
Dear Gameday,
Please be more specific. “Injury Delay” makes me nervous.
Love,
Jane
Whaaaa happahhh?
Haha, Stanford was pulled for Princeton in the Yankees game! (loves the irony) Those smart people just stick together…
HAHA Yankees. :)
J.D. Drew fouled one off his foot
ok, nesn, you can just leave that camera on lester all night. i’m fine w/ that. ;D ;D ;D
About time E-6 did something right
i am waiting for lester to yawn on camera, though. kid must finally be having that exhaustion seep in, right?
Hooray, we can has runs!
Oh, Lester was on ABC World News Tonight today, actually. I watched him with my family at dinner…he’s wonderful.
wow, only 1 of those 7 runs Mussina gave up was earned.
A double would have been better, Ian, but I’ll take a sac RBI.
I might have hollered “E6!” at Julio on Sunday at the game. I say “might” only because I honestly can’t remember.
Ian- I’m assuming there were some errors.
