That was the suck.

Go Jays.

what a joke, Papelbon can’t pitch 2 days in a row, Sox can’t hit the immortal Garrett Olson. Lose a series to the amazing Mariners, pathetic.

Better luck tomorrow? One can only hope.

@lone1c: I know...it's been bizarre.

@ecl1958: Unlike us, I think they can actually pull off a win. Sorry, I'm being Adam today. :(

@Jennie: They're tied in the bottom of the ninth, so there's still hope.

I was looking at the Yankees score for consolation but I’m not finding it and I’m afraid to look now. Please don’t anyone answer the question unless it’s something I want to hear.

Great. Now the Sox need to manufacture a run starting with Ellsbury, Kotsay, and Lugo.

@ecl1958: Normally Tito is pretty good in his use of the bullpen, but this past week has made literally NO SENSE. He left in Masterson after giving up two runs to an enormous string of lefties. He's pulled the hook on guys after one out and one hit. And now he's left Saito in after walking the bases loaded.

This game sucks ass, as have the majority of the games this week. This is pissing me off.

@jules: Hey, no need to apologize -- I feel exactly the same way about him!

@lone1c: Thanks! I've heard all the other nicks, but not Giraffe.

By: lone1c

@jules: Yes, the Giraffe is Masterson. Around here, he's also known as the Windmill, Masty, J-Mast, and Mr. Clean-Up. But he was saying a lot---how nice a guy he is, how competitive he is, how his arm slot deceives hitters, his versatility, etc., etc.

@ecl1958: Masterson is one of my favorites--just adorable and seems like the nicest guy. /fangirl

@jules: I spaced out for a moment because I was busy WATCHING the Giraffe, but he's entirely gushworthy!

@lone1c: Giraffe? Would that be Masterson? What is Casey saying?

By: lone1c

The Giraffe: Inducing sweet inning-ending DPs since 2008.

Turning DP?!?!!?

YAAAAAAAAY

Go Jays!

Sean Casey is absolutely gushing over the Giraffe.

By: ecl1958

ecl1958 — Sat, 04 Jul 2009 19:08:32 +0000

Okay, Giraffe, c’mon and be awesome.

This is not funny, guys. First and third, no outs, and you get nothing?
