    Long story short–treated my friend like crap for pretty much no reason whatsoever. Not a dating issue. Out of respect for my friend that’s all I’ll say. You wanna throw down, be prepared for the pain.

    (hate beating people up so don’t go there, kthx)

    AW DAMMIT JOSH

    If I’m not mistaken, Josh is VERY close to getting his 1000th career strikeout.

  31. 2008 May 8 at 8:41 pm

    I heard that from the other room. Way to go, Youk!

  32. 2008 May 8 at 8:41 pm

    Youkilis is a Tigers Killer. I swear he LOVES playing against them.

  33. 2008 May 8 at 8:42 pm
    Kasey permalink

    Bethie permalink

    And their reliever Dolsi has an ERA over 5. Hmmmm.

  44. 2008 May 8 at 9:05 pm
    Bethie permalink

    Ah, this is the guy that had his first major league pitch end up being a HR by Manny. Ah….ouch.

  45. 2008 May 8 at 9:07 pm
    Texas Gal permalink

    Yes- the Tiggies bullpen is their weakness. Once you get to their pen, you’ve got a shot.

  46. 2008 May 8 at 9:08 pm

    Mmph. I haven’t been paying any attention here. And Gameday is frozen up.

    Okay, Pleats at 3rd on Papi’s double, is that where we are?

  47. 2008 May 8 at 9:10 pm
    Texas Gal permalink

    Yep. And a K for Youk.

  48. 2008 May 8 at 9:10 pm
    Bethie permalink

    That sounds about right ecl.

    I’m going to have to e-mail someone at MLB.com tomorrow about gameday and MLB tv. They’ve been giving me a fit the last few weeks. And after today and having to restart it 5 times during a Beckett game because it’s locked up. Let’s just say Bethie not happy.

    I am old–I remember Dave Magadan playing.
