heyy. im soo excited for the game=]
Good afternoon.
Hi all. I am still on a high from last night’s game…..having both Becks and DLowe on a mound and Becks pitching like the rock star ace that is he. What a game.
I hope Wake continues his dominance….and that this weather doesn’t mess him all up. It seems fitting that our “father” type is pitching today on Father’s day.
Let’s GO SOX….and bats….could ya give Wake crazy types of run support, it would be appreciated.
Isn’t the game at 1:35– not 7:10?
Hey all !
Dice-K is placed on DL !
Hopefully, Wake’s knuckle will flutter this afternoon.
and Happy Fathers Day to all !
@shelley1005: The problem is the wind is going the wrong way for Wake’s preferences.
I have this feeling it is going to be a long game today
Wake. Outs…please make them your friend. That is all.
WaKefield!
Nice Wake
WaKe. First out….took a while, but got it.
Damn
Dangit. Not what I wanted to see.
Aurgh. Why couldn’t that ball carry foul? Sighs.
uum .. wake, outs please.
come on wake we need outs.
Wake gets those two outs, but not before some damage is done.
Come on Sox bats, and show your love for Wakey.
Hey folks — Wakey, what’s going on here?
I’ve got not one but TWO channels carrying the game on my cable. I’m opting for the one that is not TBS.
This site has been loading E-X-T-R-E-M-E-L-Y slowly for me over the past couple of days (it’s not my computer or my broadband connection…everything else is just as it should be). Makes it hard to post, so I may be even more scarce than I would normally be when watching the game in a different room.
GO SOX!
@ecl1958: Wakefield is facing his biggest nemesis—strong gusts blowing towards the plate.
GO, ELF!
Pedey !
@lone1c: Yeah, I’ve heard tell that the weather is not the best up there this afternoon…
@ecl1958: You can hear the wind on the TBS broadcast.
How did Youk get dirty already?
Hey all!
I read it was quite a game last night–we were at the beach and missed it.
just got back from grocery shopping for the Father’s Day party tonight and see Wake’s given up two. Let’s hope that’s all they get and our bats wake up.
Off to bake brownies. I got a new cake pan set that is shaped like Oreo cookies and am going to put ice cream in the middle of the brownies. yummmmmmmmmmmmm
Go Sox!
yay!
Yay, Youk!
Good sac fly by Bay scores the Elf.
@jules: I want some cookies now. ha.
Sac fly baby….would have liked a homer or a sweet double, but I’ll take it.
PAPI!!!!!!
Ortiz!
I love you, Papi!
Papi. Umm….you are a mother trucking rock star!
P.S. Wake says thanks!
@shelley1005: Ortíz hears your request and answers.
I love it when you hit homers Big Papi!
David Ortiz is amazing.
Go, Kots!
WHOO HOO KOTS….keep this inning going…..
PAPI !
Yay Kotsay! (also, that rhymes)
@lone1c: I can’t hear wind on my broadcast, but per Gameday and my trusty favorite weather site, the wind is around 20 mph in the area, which is rather impressive.
Better inning now Wake
@Jacobybabe46: And just like that Im proven very wrong
Come on Wake. Get some outs….and get the game back to the bats.
Wake is making JD work so far this afternoon.
Nice catch, Kots!
Nice snag there Kots.
And I am half worried and half relieved by the Mikey Lowell news.
And thank you, Snowflake, for bailing Wakefield out of a leadoff double.
@shelley1005: It’s better that they are addressing now before it gets worse
Eck. Please discontinue mention of “getting rid of Buchholz.” It hurts my feelings.
@Jacobybabe46: Yes, which is why I am relieved….also saying it is normal and now an re-injury of the hip area. I think with Kots on the team, they can be a lot more kind and gentle when it comes to Mikey and his playing time.
