Wonder if Beckett is handing Youk a bat right now and showing him how to abuse a bench.
Youk needs no lessons on damaging things in anger.
…which I find strangely appealing. ;)
fc, soloing in harmony is called “overtone singing.” Interesting stuff. I only know about it because I was a voice major about a million years ago.
Bethie, funny, I used to drink Bud during my slumming days. I tend to go for nicer stuff these days on the rare occasions that I actually drink. My, how I’ve evolved. :)
Awww, Tek…
Okay Lugie, be a hero, please…
ecl – like the Tuva throat singers, right?
None o’ that going on here. Just hyperbole.
Lugo can’t hit in the clutch…
fc, I had to Google that. Yes, like the Tuva throat singers. I can do it just a little tiny bit (thanks to an exercise we did during choir practice in college), but I don’t know how to do it correctly. I blow my throat out very quickly when I try.
C’mon…battle baby battle…(hoping I’m not making a fool of myself due to radio delay)…
Awww, dammit, Julio…
Why couldn’t we have left the “we leave base runners stranded” habit in Houston??? Geez.
For some reason, I get the impression that the majority of the new Ray fans do not understand anything about baseball.
Sigh
B-E-E-R
I dunno Jessi, but maybe that guys sign about the Rays being a “real first place team” might be a good clue
Hi people,
anyone notice that anytime there are men on base that Tek comes up to the plate?

Lugo can’t hit in the clutch…
Who said Lugo could hit….at all? haha
Adam, that’s just a function of the hitting in the lineup ahead of Tek.
I can’t stop laughing at Smith’s hat.
Haha Adam – ok next time it will read:
“Lugo can’t hit the ball to save his life (or catch it)…”
ps I’m a huge Lugo-hater
umm I’m not sure you understood my point. Anytime there seems to be a rally, Varitek comes up and either K’s or grounds into a DP
I don’t feel well.
And no hating on our own.
I’m full of opinions about Lugo, but “hater”??? Sorry, not cool.
why not just make your point instead of asking a question that was barely understandable at best.
I can’t hate Lugo.
But I can hate his errors.
(tosses another beer down the mountain and across the Piedmont to Bethie…)
Thanks Faith.
Bases are loaded??? Think it’s time to move on to J-A-C-K.
Aw, ecl, when I read “tosses another beer down” I was ready to be so proud.
Sorry, but I honestly cannot stand him. If he could just play good offense or defense ..
Like Tek, he’s not htiting the ball well, but what he does behind the plate is amazing.
(make that two beers for Bethie…)
And thank you, fc…I agree, hating on Lugo is not cool. I get aggravated wth him, sure…but will never, ever hate him. But you already knew that.
BEAN GOMES iN THe FACe
lopez?
i might be a tad early but we need to get delcarmen in there.
or oki, but you know he will give up the granny
fc, I very well could make it two tonight. We’ll see. I do have to get up in the morning, though, and am no longer used to drinking.
Poor Bethie…I don’t have any hard liquor in the house.
I just cussed at my ‘puter…
Oh, but I do Faith. Jack and Jose are always on hand in case I need some company. :)
I just punched myself in the thigh. And said bad words.
LOL Bethie! I used to keep Jack around the house too. I forget who else…I think I was too fried at the time to remember anymore.
Ok one run out of bases loaded isn’t too bad.
So we hang here during games – what about a support group for after games?
fc, you’ll probably be amazed to know that back in the day I abso-freakin-lutely loved corn liquor AKA moonshine. Especially if peaches were embalmed in it. Straight outta the Carolina hills. Egads…so good.
A virtual after-hours bar, fc!
Does this support group involve 12 steps???
Okay, JD…
aww dammit.
We admitted that we were powerless over our addiction to the Red Sox…
This sucks ass.
Totally.
I may be drunk the entire Sox/Rays series. Oops. :)
Bethie, you ever had shine?
I can tell this half a beer is going to my head. I’m sitting here laughing out loud because I can’t believe I’m posting about moonshine on a gameday thread.
Oh yes ma’am. My cousin makes homemade peach brandy. Woah. If you take one sip of that and your insides don’t scramble, then you must be radioactive or something.
But after a few shots, eh…..who cares. :)
I prefer the clear, pure power of vodka, myself.
Well, we have to talk about something. Cause our bats aren’t exactly giving us anything at the moment.
Hey gross. You suck.
The End.
need 3 runs from manny, lowell and youk, but if they get on base and dont score, mossy tek and lugo wont do anything
