Anyone here?
Hey all!
Hi Cathy! I think we’re the only ones in here so far.
Are not.
Please do not start walking people, Dice!
Hey all…just leaving the office. Will be joining you for the game shortly. Go Sox!
Dice already had 1 walk. But thankfull Kinsler was erased by Tek.
Ugh. Nothing is more frustrating than Dice-k pitching! 3 walks in 1 2/3 innings!
Hi everyone!!
Hi Bethie!
Yay Bases loaded!
Come on, Coco!
I’m really glad that the Rangers have mediocre pitching.
And that our guys have decided to start scoring runs…in succession.
PEDIE!
This is just silly. In a good way.
And Papi just made it ridiculous.
PAPI!
I almost feel sorry for the Rangers’ pitching. Almost.
JED!!!
new nickname for Jed= Jeddy Ballgame
Disturbing but true stat of the day–Lowrie now needs just 3 RBI’s to match Tek’s total for the year.
I missed the first inning and a half and I turn on to mlb.tv to a 8-0 lead. I’m speechless.
It’s awfully quiet here, tonight.
I finally got home and turned the computer on and found 9-0, Mac. I was just as speechless. Had to sit down and read the plays on Gameday so I could comprehend what in the world happened (in a good way, of course).
Yeah, Cathy, it is. I have a good excuse — worked late, but as for the others? No clue.
I thought I’d try something new: not commenting unless I have something to say.
I don’t like it much. Expect the drivel to continue.
Well, as for me, I’m trying to avoid commenting too much because I’m frakkin’ pissed at finding out that the Rangers have blocked my viewing the game from 417 miles away–in spite of the fact that none of the cable stations in a 150-mile radius carry their games. . . .
I see that Texas has both of its long Italian names in action tonight. I have no problem remembering Saltalamacchia, but I work with someone named Coladonato, so I get mixed up and tongue tied with Catalanotto.
fc, drivel on. I sure am, after spending yet another day in “solitary confinement” in a room full of cubicles (long story). Now that I’m here, I feel like I just got out of prison!
lone1c, that sucks about the blackout. Ridiculous!
417 miles from Arlington, TX, lone1c? Where are you?
Carlsbad, NM. (Yeah, it’s in the middle of nowhere. The nearest larger town–75 miles away–is Roswell. Yes, that Roswell.
That was a nice inning by Dice. No walks.
As in Carlsbad Caverns, lone1c?
I think lone1 has been abducted by aliens.
One and the same, ecl.
Jeddy Ballgame!
Take that, Lowrie heckler!
(A guy in the stands was yelling “Hey, Lowrie, SIDDOWN!!)
And Jed continues to be awesome.
Comparisons to Ted Williams may be a wee bit premature.
Haven’t been abducted–unfortunately, I do have to run off to rehearsal now, and tomorrow I leave for an extended trip, so I’ll see you guys in a while.
Go Jed!
HA! to both fc and Cathy…
lone1c — have heard of it many times but have never been there or anywhere in that part of the country.
I was joking, fc. I know he’s nowhere near, and will probably never be near, Ted Williams.
Julian Tavarez is pitching right now for the Braves, against the Cubs.
Nice play, Pedie!
And I’m sorry if that post came out as sounding a bit snotty.
Hey guys, just turned on mlbtv – my god 9-0. It’s getting to the point where I almost feel bad for Ranger pitching.
And then I remember the first game of the series.
Weird to see Tavarez coming in to relieve Tom Glavine.
Jacoby!!
I’m fried and spaced out…is there some reason why Jacoby replaced JD? Not that I mind, of course…
I missed that too. Is JD hurt? He’s very fragile you know.
ecl, I was wondering that myself.
I didn’t hear them say anything, so I’m hoping Francona just wanted to give Drew the rest of the night off.
I wasn’t paying attention…but based on when Jacoby came in, I’m wondering if JD pulled something while making the third out of the previous inning.
