    We don’t like 2 out walks

    Walks are bad.

    It’s Dice-K. Expect the bases full before the end of the inning, then the out. Nothing will phase me tonight. I am prepared.

    Did anyone else’s TV go all slo-mo? It seems to do that once in a while.

    Jennie: Maybe…definitely a big clumsy character.

    If the announcers think that was trouble, they obviously haven’t watched Daisuke at all this year.

    Remember when Jacoby stole bases?

    I miss that.

    Dice did not work himself out of trouble Chip….Dice is only in trouble when there’s no one on base….he likes to make it interesting for us…ok…RUNS….NOW

    The ltitle things annoy me. “Dice-K out of a jam.” I really don’t think guy on 2nd with 2 outs is a “jam”

    Oh my god, I just realized this could be Tek’s last game in a Sox uniform. Whoa. I am not prepared to see Tek any place but behind the plate catching our guys.

    Jacoby would have to GET ON BASE to steal bases.

    Twinkie – You couldn’t tell that from how they pronounce his name?

    Am I the only one that pisses off? The Ortiz thing is annoying, but for some reason DaisuKAY gets under my skin.

    If Tek leaves the Sox, I will so cry.

  22. 2008 October 16 at 8:47 pm
    Kim permalink

    I’ll be incredibly sad if Tek leaves. I was equally as sad when it was time to resignt Lowell.

  23. 2008 October 16 at 8:47 pm

    Next year, they need to put the pronunciations in the media guide.

    I’ve been ignoring them as much as I can. I’ll have to listen closer next time (and promptly tune them out again).

    Late posts: Kristin, for a moment there I thought the announcers had changed their evil ways, but then they went right back to the Rays-kissing.

    Thanks for the clothing reminders, y’all. I am going to put on my new “Hot Coco” sweatshirt. It arrived yesterday and is just too cute.

    LOL Kristin! You’d think he would…

    “It may have clipped him”

    It deflected the other way. “May have”? Sure.

    Did Buck just say that now Coco “doesn’t have to hit like a leadoff hitter”?

    What the fuck does that mean. How about he just hits?

    Maybe I shouldn’t have changed into this sweatshirt. I jinxed Coco.
