    Commander kickass will make everything better.

  3. 2008 June 29 at 2:08 pm

    Bethie, I know you’ll just LOVE it if that’s what The Commander provides! Won’t we all!

    Did that rain stay away from you last night? I went to bed at 1:something and it looked like it had broken up on the way east.

  4. 2008 June 29 at 2:10 pm

    Awwww, WRKO just said that Dustin was giggling as he reached first base, really pleased with himself.

    I will love it! Just wish I could see it or listen to it! LOL

    Oh well, I’ll stay on game day until I run out of time to give to it.

    And you guys will have to keep me updated after that. :)

    Hey, all–can’t stick around for the whole game because we’re going to my next door neighbor’s birthday BBQ, but hopefully Commander Kickass will be in full command of the Fuck Yeah Brigade today.

    Crap, I meant to say ‘one’

  9. 2008 June 29 at 2:13 pm

    Apparently so, Erin. Bethie, I forgot you’re at work. Guess you can’t listen there… :(

  10. 2008 June 29 at 2:14 pm

    Hiya Trish! Hey, a birthday BBQ sounds divine. Hope you have a great time! Don’t worry, we’ll keep The Commander in line for ya.

    I guess I have to keep you guys updated on anything the cameras pick up.

    HOLY CRAP!! The baseball god’s have decided to have mercy on me!! I just tried to pull up the live feed on my work computer and it is working!!!

    OH MY GOD!!!

  13. 2008 June 29 at 2:17 pm

    Bethie…now let’s hope you have a very slow day at work so you can enjoy it! :-D

    Bethie- Which feed are you getting?

  15. 2008 June 29 at 2:18 pm
    Trish permalink

    WOO HOO!

    This is the first time I’ve watched a Josh start on MLB.TV in forever–his recent starts have all been nationally televised.

    I’m getting the FSN channel out of Houston, Erin.

    I wish MLB let us choose, cause I would choose NESN. But right now I will not complain, keep my mouth shut, and be grateful I can watch Beckett kick ass. :)

  17. 2008 June 29 at 2:20 pm
    Erin permalink

    How do they determine which feed you get when watching MLB.tv?

  18. 2008 June 29 at 2:21 pm
    Trish permalink

    I think it’s regular FOX out of Houston, there seems to be a station logo in the score line.

    And y’all know what I’m going to say about who’s up so I’ll save myself the keystrokes. ;)

    Erin–you always get the home team’s feed.

  20. 2008 June 29 at 2:22 pm

    Hmph. I was hoping that Mr. Anger Management Issues would come through in the clutch. Hide the helmets.

    Trish- Thats what I thought.

    Nnnnggghhh… There is just about too much awesome on that pitcher’s mound.

    Nice 1-2-3 inning!

  26. 2008 June 29 at 2:31 pm

    That sounded good from the other room! Now c’mon bats…

  27. 2008 June 29 at 2:36 pm

    Did Julio just hurt himself? WRKO said he was “in a heap at home plate.” :(

  28. 2008 June 29 at 2:37 pm
    Erin permalink

    He fouled a ball of his foot. He seems to be fine now.

    Beckett is at bat!

  30. 2008 June 29 at 2:38 pm

    Okay, Josh…I’ve heard that you can hit…

  31. 2008 June 29 at 2:41 pm

    Lots of pro-Josh signs in the stands.

  32. 2008 June 29 at 2:42 pm

    BecKett the other way. :(

    And I’m sitting here with a big silly smile on my face.

  44. 2008 June 29 at 2:54 pm

    Yeah Manny! Get that bat workin’!

    I missed the first 2 innings, but got online in time to see Beckett bat. Was loving it, yum.

    Ah, the joys of interleague play, watching Josh’s ass while he bats. Did I say that out loud?

  48. 2008 June 29 at 2:58 pm

    Howdy everyone! I’ve been without internet and baseball for 5 days. I’m glad it’s back. Lightning struck our cable.

    I do have some pics of my Fenway visit on my blog. It’s the 2nd entry.

    I think Varitek needs to go and give Pedey another hug. Maybe some of that awesome hitting power will rub off on the captain.

    Bethie- It might work.
