Milestones

Everyone’s got their eye on the countdown to 500 – but there are a few other Sox milestones that are fast approaching.
- J.D. Drew – needs 3 doubles to hit 200 on his career
Mike Lowell – needs 2 RBIs to reach 800 on his career
Sean Casey – needs 7 hits to reach 1,500 on his career
Other milestones the Sox should be closing in on soon? 200 spelling contests by Jonathan Papelbon, 500 calls argued by Kevin Youkilis, 750 different hairstyles by Daisuke Matsuzaka, 1000 cussfests by Josh Beckett and 1200 uses of the word “scrappy” to describe Dustin Pedroia. Oh, and 170 errors by Julio Lugo. That last one is not a joke, sadly.
I love the 200 spelling contests. I wonder how he would do on the Are you smarter than a 5th grader? show. Now that would be fun to watch. Also would Wakefield like to share some of his Just for Men with Lowell?
“500 calls argued by Kevin Youkilis”
that one is my personal favorite. he cannot walk away from that plate happy, ever. the best of the best though was when he was still arguing with the ump when he took the field at first.
No sharing the Just for Men!
Some of us love the silver fox look… its part of the charm.
mhc is spot on. Mikey is perfect just as he is.
Good luck tonight, guys!
Imagine if they all made them on the same day. That’d be fantastic.
Agreed on the no Just for Men, as well.
you forgot:
1000 Ortiz Clap-Claps at the plate
300 liters of sweat poured from Youk’s head
500 Clay Buchholz hand licks
500 times Dennis Eckersley says about Clay, “I just love this kid!”
500 references to Don Orsillo stealing PJs by Remy
1000 Orsillo gigglefests
1000 awkward Heidi Watney segues
one last one:
1000 times JD Drew’s status is referred to as “day to day”
