Man...that was an incredible game. I almost passed out I was screaming so loud. Only way I was able to tell them apart was Jed's enormous grin, and the fact that his hair was longer.
I'm also watching the Yankee game and just saw one of the worst examples of base running by Bobby Abreau. Bases loaded, one out, and Nady hit a sac fly to left field. However, Bobby decided to tag up from second and go to third. He was tagged out and no runs were scored. Haha
Jed has been on a tear ever since we got Bay. I like to think this is because he was subconsciously missing his long lost brother, but now that they are re-united, he is finally truly happy.
It's hard to see where else you'd slot him. Wake and Lester are firing on all cylinders, Beckett's still doing well (if not exactly 2007-Becketty), and Dice-K is maddeningly uneven, yet still managing to do well.
Out here in New Mexico, we get thunderstorms with the sun out fairly often. We also have times where it's sunny where you're standing, but you can clearly see a thunderstorm off in the distance.
Ugh. While they do that we get Sox Appeal, instead of the rest of the Ultimate Red Sox Show where we could've watched Youk & Pedey holding their batting clinic for kids.
I want to meet the people who were chanting Jack Cust's average at him the whole game. They're my new heroes. I hate Cust so much and was bummed that he didn't play when I was there last night. Not like he would have heard anything I said, but still...
