Quiet day, huh? Game is currently in a rain delay. Not sure for how long though.

Hey Piney (and anyone else)...I'm here at work until 8:15 so am posting on the fly.

How's the radar up there? Does it look hopeful? I don't have time to check, otherwise would take a look for myself. Anyway, if the delay lasts long enough I may not miss too much of the game. That would be nice. Will check in again before I leave the office...

I hate rain delays! But I guess it would be good if you got to watch more of the game, ecl.

Now mind you, I don't want y'all to have to wait on my account! I was thinking that I'd miss at least the first three innings with the regular start time, though, so depending on how long the delay is, I may only miss two innings, or even less. At least it's a Friday, so most of us don't have to worry about the game going until later in the evening...

:::gets back to the paperwork:::

Hey guys! Just got home, any word on a possible start time?

Hi All! Checking in from the Hartford Airport - on my way to Baltimore for some Sox/O's baseball (in a few days). ;D

How psyched am I that the Jimmy Fund telethon made its $4 million goal already!?

MLB.com says the game's postponed...

Postponed to be played at 12:35 tomorrow.

Not tomorrow---September 13th.

Ugh rain-outs suck. Oh well, Oympics tonight!

I knew that radar didn't look good.  Oh well...can catch up on my LJ and e-mail stuff tonight.  Thanks for the makeup date info, Mac and Cathy.  See you folks tomorrow evening.

Take two - use this thread again for tonight's game!

Pickoff!

Nice pickoff!

Hey all...getting some supper together but am here...

Crap!

Yay for the red jerseys

I agree, Angie. Our guys look just great in red!

Please no rain delay!

I'm gonna have to agree there, too. Love the red jerseys.

Woah I just noticed Pedie's scruff has gotten really thick! I was gone for a week and it looks totally different.

Hey everyone!! Pet sitting for the neighbors, so just popping in for a minute.

Woo hoo, red jersey night! Let's hope Halladay doesn't whoop our butts.

Have fun everybody!

They showed a closeup of Pedie's scruff in an interview, and i burt out laughing. it's 3x's more ridiculous closeup.

Looks like he's a tough old Byrd.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Cash used to be #36 right?

Yeah he did, but he gave it to Byrd. And byrd is going to buy him a pair of shoes or something in return.

Yup. Cash used to wear #36, but let Byrd have the number when the Sox got him. He's gonna be wearing #30 now. It's in the Globe, I think.

He was out!

52 pitches for Halladay? Something needs to be done about that.

I was worried that keeping the ball in the park here would be a problem for Byrd...and so far my fears don't seem to be unfounded:-(

Dammit.

This so does not bode well...

Runs would be nice.

quiet night here

Trying to multitask so haven't been posting much.

I really don't like Roy Halladay and his low pitch counts.

Crap!

I am out at my parents lakehouse and they are watching the olympics. I'm hooked the cable up to the computer out here to watch the game.

Ian, that sounds idyllic...watching a game "out here" by a lake.

I could swear that they were just playing zydeco music in the background on the NESN feed.

it's so relaxing out here. I'm ready for bed.

Ian, I'm jealous! I'm uploading a bunch of my old CDs onto my I-Tunes, and just got off the phone with my mom. My sister and family are in town from the West Coast, and tomorrow we'll be getting together for the first time since Christmas (so I'll miss the latter part of the game).

I'm actually upset though. My dad just filled the hot tub up after their vacation so I have to wait until the morning to use it.

Ian, if you go to sleep right after the game you won't miss it a bit!

the earliest i'm going to bed is at least 11:30 since phelps swims again for #8 at 10:58 PM.

DUSTIN!!!!

*SQUEAL*

PEDIE!!!!!!!!!!!

Pedieee!

Thanks for reminding me, Ian. I'll have to keep an eye on the news from the Olympics a little later this evening.

Gah, what a disappointing game. Hopefully tomorrow Red Sox do better. After all, I'm going to that game.

That last pitch to JD was not a strike!

Jacqueline - Wow, I was just going to type the same thing. I'm going to that game, too :D

Not our night. Jacqueline, I hope you enjoy tomorrow's game and that our guys come through for you.

You guys are so lucky you get to see Beckett pitch!

Wow that last post was supposed to be from me, not M.
Oopsie. Looks like I can't type.

Thanks guys!
I'll be wearing my Ellsbury jersey.

My parents are going to the game tomorrow as well. hence the reason why I'm here tonight so i can dog sit tomorrow

My 2 friends that I'm going with and I just made a big sign tonight. It says "Leominster loves NESN" and "Happy Birthday Dustin!"

It's also very glittery. :)

I'll have to look out for you on TV, then. I'm sure they'll show that sign at some point.

Where is today's open thread for the game? I'm lost. :(
