Well, at least Tek got in, and I give Jacoby an E for effort.
Yea we got lucky with that bobble at 3B so I’ll take the run.
No reason to be saying “Well, at least” anything – Tek and Jacoby are hitting, Jacoby’s stealing, Josh is getting K’s and we’re up by 4.
That was a nice quick inning!
Sorry, fc. My bad.
No one’s “bad” ecl – just good times, people, good times.
Yeah, Sox fans ‘all of a sudden” showed up!
Youk!
Aw Erin, I saw your post before the hit and thought Youk had hit a HR. Though, a double ain’t too bad either!
Well Youk is on my fantasy team so I’m happy when he gets a hit.
What was that?
Bay!!! That was soooo weird.
They think that Damon play was bizarre, this will be showed on ESPN til the night ends.
Wow.
Wow! Crazy play!
That was Jason Bay’s Youk impression. Sans wounding Johnny Damon. And I’ll take it.
Uh, that was very weird.
That was interesting…..but J BAY!…and JED
Jed!
I think I’m in love with him.
Ok that worked out well. I am perfectly fine with Lowrie hitting a triple and bringing in two runs.
Now we know what happened–Jason wanted to save a few RBI’s for Jed. :-)
Sweeeet!
Also, I NEVER want to see Lugo play again.
JED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jason and Jed – deadly combo.
J-Bay has love for his long lost little brother
I know this been said before but from a distance Jason and Jed look like brothers.
That figures. I go take a shower and they score 3 runs while I’m gone. :)
I’ll take it though.
Bethie, you may need to take a shower at this exact same time every game day.
Cathy, I’ll do whatever I have to if it means a win.
BecKKKKKKett!
Did I see Timlin without his high socks?
I’m so happy to see Josh have a good outing and have the run support at the same time.
I love seeing Timlin pitch when we have a 7-run lead. It makes everything so much easier.
Though I have to admit he has been better recently.
good bounce back for BecKKKKKKKett after that crazyness against LA…..
Why isn’t Timlin wearing the high socks? I love high socks.
Looks like I’m stuck with just Gameday graphics for the duration. Media player froze up and wouldn’t refresh, I exited in the manner that the techies had directed, even logged out of mlb.com, and am still being told I’m trying to log in on multiple computers. :::inserts a bunch of cuss words:::
So y’all will have to fill me in on any great visuals that I miss.
I HAD TO WORK LATE AND MISSED THE ENTIRETY OF BECKETT NIGHT.
I am not happy about this.
TEX!
We missed you.
Texas leads 8-2 in the bottom of the 7th.
And TB is up 8-4 in the top of the 9th.
I missed me, too.
I see the peptalk I gave to Joshua worked out ok.
“peptalk” eh?
Pep talk? You sure you didn’t give him a swift kick in the ass?
Cause he looked really good tonight.
TG – the peptalk was very much appreciated. Could you give one to Clay next time?
I reserve my peptalks for Josh and Jon.
And that explains why Jon as been so ace-like lately!
4 hits for Bay…yep, he’s a keeper!
So, I really like this kid called Jason Bay.
Four-hits? I think yes!
Lovely visual–Tito and Lester having a father-son moment on the dugout stairs.
Not-so-lovely audio: the @$)%*! KC announcers smacking down Manny.
