Somebody Left The Barn Door Open

The morning after a game, I always scroll through the game action photos from the night before. When the Sox win, it's a fun reminder of the awesomeness. When the Sox lose, it's still a pick-me-up because most of the time there's a smiling Papi or an indignant Pedroia or something else fun to look at.

But looking through last night's game photos brought me a whole different kind of fun.

Josh- I know you were super psyched about returning to the mound again, and I know you were all pumped up to be pitching in Texas... but you gotta take that extra second or two to make sure everything's in its right place.

And I'd love to know which teammate risked the sound and fury to tell Josh in the dugout after the first inning that he was sharing a little too much of himself with the world. By the time he marched back out in the second, Josh had corrected the problem.

I have to admit, I giggled.

Maybe that was an intimidation tactic?

I saw that and yelled out "XYZ Josh!" No one else here believed me, though.

LOL!

No really, it took me a moment of looking at the picture to realize what the big deal was...and then I saw it.

Apropos of nothing, I'd like to apologize to anyone who was at certain sports bar in the greater Philadelphia area last night. With the Sox winning, Beckett and Lowell kicking ass, the losses by both the Rays and the Yankees AND the Phils' win over the Mets, I was one loud, obnoxious and happy sports fan last night.

Well, that is certainly a big, big bright spot in my day.

Big.

Well, HELLLOOOO JOSH.

I guess sometimes it's easy to overlook the details when someone is that excited to get back to work? Hmmmm.....

Okay, mind is trailing off into the gutter. I shall go now.

Thanks for the photographic evidence, Texy!

I thought I noticed it last night and then tried to see it again (LOL) and couldn't get a good look. That's hysterical!!

My money's on Lowell.

Sorry to double post, but my mom and I have also noticed that Dice-K always checks his between, like, every batter as he steps of the back of the mound.

Thank you, Texy!! I was doubting my own eyes last night, with all that exposure going on with Beckett.

Maybe we'll hear more about this faux pas moment in the post-post season.

Had to be Lowell--anyone else would have gotten punched in the face. And of course I could only find this picture here.

Beckett always puts a smile on my face
