Hello all!
Hey Erin!
Any idea if the weather has cleared out of there yet?
Hello!
Happy Friday! I had the day off and spent the day plastering and running errands. woot.
DO just said a start time would be announced soon–amazing considering all the rain.
I’ll trade you my 90 sun so we can get a weekend of Yankee bum-kicking in.
Hey, Erin: According to Don and Remy, it just stopped raining in the last 5-10 minutes. They’re trying to figure out how much of a window they have.
The mantra for tonight: Score early, and relatively often (but not so often that we can’t get through four-and-a-half with a lead!).
lone, how are you getting the Don and Remy pregame waaaay out there where you live? Are you on something other than mlb.tv?
The radar that I just checked shows another area of rain coming north from Nantucket and points south, so the window isn’t terribly large. :::crosses fingers:::
I hope they can play tonight. Its my birthday and a win from the Sox would be awesome.
The game is scheduled to start at 8.
ProJo says the game will start at 8:05 PM ET.
by the way, hi all.
ecl: No, it was with MLB.tv–they were showing a few minutes of Don and Remy telling us about the forecast. . . .
Happy birthday, Erin!
Happy birthday, Erin!
Happy Birthday, Erin!!!!!!
I hope they can deliver a Yankee beating for you. That would be a wonderful gift, eh?
enjoy the game tonight if it starts when they say it will. I’ve got UConn football duty tonight ESPN2 at 8.
Happy Birthday Erin!!
Hopefully they can get a game in.
Another wonderful gift would be to see Damon and A-Rod strike out.
I’m being TOTALLY selfish, but the plus side of rain delays is that NESN shows these Sox-related shows that I don’t get to see.
“sure-handed short-stop Julio Lugo”
bwaaahaaahaaahaaahaaaa
That made me laugh too Jules.
Happy Birthday, Erin!
jules: WTF? “sure-handed” and LUGO?
Hey Erin, Happy Birthday from one September baby to another!
Is Josh pitching on Sunday by any chance? That’s Trish’s birthday…
Lone, the Don and Remy discussion must have occurred before I fired up all my websites.
Jules, the plus side of rain delays is that I actually get to eat dinner! :::runs to start fixing it, will be back after awhile:::
Awwww heck, they were probably being sarcastic. Poor Lugo.
ecl – Beckett’s scheduled to pitch tomorrow. Wake on Sunday, I think.
I was at that opening day game in 2007
Mac, that’s okay, she can have an early birthday present.
If they get rained out tonight, Beckett will not pitch until Wednesday or Thursday. Same thing if they get rained out tomorrow.
Ian- I was home sick on opening day.
And happy bday erin
Thanks for the bday wishes everyone!
Ah yes the first Sox Yankee Series of 2007.
The two times i went to Fenway in 2007 Beckett pitched both games. Opening day and game 1 of the World Series.
Stiil here for a moment — Ian, are they actually talking rainouts for tonight AND tomorrow???
I’m so jealous of y’all NESN-ers who are getting to watch whatever it is you’re talking about.
Beckett was amazing in game one of the WS. Then again he was amazing during the whole playoffs.
They were earlier ecl and that was what I heard if they were rained out that Beckett would just end up starting Game 1 and throwing a light side instead
Just to let you know. It’s raining there again and the tarp is back on the field.
At least with mlb.tv, I can watch other games. Watching Tampa now. Navarro cleated a tiger player when the tiger slide into home. Looks painful.
Detroit up 2-0 over tampa
Karen, thanks for the info.
Ian, that’s so strange…the radar I’m looking at shows virtually no rain over Boston right now!

Detroit now up 3-0.
TC is talking about it now. He’s saying it’s still an 8:05 start. ALthough I think that’s unlikely.
WRKO is saying that Daisuke has been scratched and Pauley will be starting instead, if the game is played.
Dice-K has been scratched from the start. David Pauley is now pitching
Mac: Huh. Don’t know what to make of that.
Ian and ecl: I believe that the game tonight should be playable. It might have to wait until 8.30 or 9.00, but there should be a couple of hours to get the game in (there’s almost nothing in Southern New England right now).
I can tell you it hasn’t rained here where in live in CT since about 4 PM.
How come Dice-K was scratched?
No reason has been given about Dice-K yet.
None of the Boston media thinks they are going to play this game tonight.
Tigers up 5-0 now.
I have been following updates on boston.com, since I have no nesn. I am enjoying watching tigers beating tampa.
first pitch is now scheduled for 8:35 PM
PTSD…showing Gagne in a Sox uni.
LET’S GO TIGERS!
8:35…okay, now I really SHOULD be a good girl and fix this supper. I’m ravenous. Maybe I’ll switch to TB/DET for awhile. It’s getting too quiet in this house.
