    @shelley1005: Good stuff! They showed some of that during the pre-game.

  9. 2009 September 29 at 7:18 pm

    @fc: I have no idea what any of that means.

    Oh, Clay. Clay, Clay, Clay.

    nice, I turn it on, it’s already 4-0. Well Texas will probably lose again, maybe they can wait around later to clinch.

    @shelley1005: Things are looking up, then. I pulled up the game and Gameday and wondered if Clay was pitching for a home run derby.

    Cute pic of you and Pedey, by the way.

    Off to cook dinner.

  21. 2009 September 29 at 7:55 pm

    I’ll take runs any way we can get them!!!

  22. 2009 September 29 at 8:03 pm

    Agreed. I do not care how they appear on the board, I only care that they appear on the board.

  23. 2009 September 29 at 8:04 pm

    Every time we get a run…Clay gives it right back. STOP DOING THAT CLAY!!!!!

  28. 2009 September 29 at 8:22 pm

    Nice K Clay. I am ignoring the rest of the suck that Clay is doing on the mound.

    Um, what is THIS (sorry, I just go home – hi!)?

  32. 2009 September 29 at 8:34 pm

    @luvmysoxboys: @Ava Lacci: Thanks! I lucked out. I write sometimes over at Fenwaywest.com and the site got an invite to go to the event. Matt who runs the site….lives in CA, so he asked if I wanted to go. I said YES…then my boss nicely gave me the day off. And off I went.

    I wrote a photo blog of the day and posted it…. Check it out if you wanna see more pics. http://tinyurl.com/ycleupp

    I am going to post a full entry on everything…including Pedey’s Q&A. It was an awesome day.

    Would be awesomer….if the Sox could win!

    BULLPEN BAND!!!!

    @shelley1005: “I’m standing on this side…so I can touch you.” Ha ha – loves it; congrats, lucky lady.

    What the HELL is happening to our 1-2-3 starters?

    Heheh…..

    “Inside the Monster. I could have taken a million different pictures. I wish I had hours to just read everything. A cute little kid asked where the bathroom was that Manny used. I had to break it to him that there is in fact…no bathroom in the Monster…..just the lingering smell of Manny’s juice.”

  37. 2009 September 29 at 8:54 pm

    @Becks0823: Yep. I want completely up front that I planned on touching the boy. Plus…I have to say…I am between 5′8″ and 5′9″ so I now believe Pedey’s 5′9″ stat line since in the pic…I am slouching a smidge, but we are basically the same height.

    @Seamus: Yeah…the woman who worked at Fenway who was inside the monster…told the kid that he wasn’t standing any where near the “spot” that Manny used. LOL.

    What is going on with our bats tonight? Lets go boys. You can’t possibly loose 2 in a row to TORANTO.

    @shelley1005: Wow Shelley! I love your picture! And for referring to yourself as “being old enough to be everyone’s Mom”, you look super young. I woulda guessed upper 20s.

    @shelley1005: I love how open Dustin was to your honesty & I look forward to your post on the Q&A. He seems like an easy-going, affable guy.

    Meeting of the 15’s; all I can think of is Pedey’s shit talk about/to Millar.

    What an awesome day. Pedi is so cute. I would have done the same thing that you did.

    I’ve always wanted to go inside the Green Monster … not so sure now that I know it was Manny’s private urinal. Gross.

    @shelley1005:

    Yay Justin is pitching. What a nice way to end the regular season. I love Masterson.

  47. 2009 September 29 at 9:07 pm

    @Jennie: I’m 31…I’ll be 32 on Monday. And on Sunday…for my birthday…going to Fenway…and going to see Masty pitch…Clay too. Swoons. Happy happy day….

    @Becks0823: Yeah, he was adorable…tonight, I’ll work on the whole post. I was dorky enough to take some notes during his Q&A. He had some great answers…funny ones…and even got a little snarky at the media coverage in Boston. Good times….good times!!
