Pedroia Jacks one out of the park - knockin in 3 runs!!!!

AutomatedTeller · 05-08-2007, 09:16 PM

I am happy Dustin is hitting. I was getting tired of saying 'he'll come around'.

This is a good game for the Sox - they needed one like this - no drama, easy, in control pitching by Beckett. You need to be able blow people bad pitchers when you face them.

Congratulations on another sweep this series for you guys and I may as well congratulate you for winning every game against us for the rest of the season....

Zen653 · 05-08-2007, 10:23 PM

ofh, the Red Sox are only 3-3 against the Blue Jays this year. I'm not sure how you extrapolate that into Toronto getting swept.

Quad-MVPs (well, they all deserve it!):

Co-LVPs:

AutomatedTeller · 05-09-2007, 12:20 AM

Is that Youk? or Lowell? I assume Youk... but it doesn't really look like him.

AutomatedTeller · 05-09-2007, 12:27 AM

Is that Youk? looks a bit like Lowell...

Sox are missing Halladay and Burnett - that can't be a good sign for this series for the Jays...

seven straight losses. Worse starting pitching in the MLB. Can't even produce runs anymore. The Jays suck something HARD!

Red Sox

1. Julio Lugo, SS
2. Coco Crisp, CF
3. David Ortiz, DH
4. Manny Ramirez, LF
5. J.D. Drew, RF
6. Mike Lowell, 3B
7. Jason Varitek, C
8. Eric Hinske, 1B
9. Dustin Pedroia, 2B

Blue Jays

1. Alex Rios, RF
2. Adam Lind, LF
3. Vernon Wells, CF
4. Frank Thomas, DH
5. Troy Glaus, 3B
6. Lyle Overbay , 1B
7. Aaron Hill, 2B

Tomo Ohka P (2-3, 5.50 ERA)

Drury77 · 05-09-2007, 07:02 PM

This should be a good game with Dice K going against Ohka.

Hopefully DK will settle down and finally have a solid game from start to finish.

AutomatedTeller · 05-09-2007, 07:30 PM

Dice-K has a guy on and hasn't had a problem with control... that's good.

AutomatedTeller · 05-09-2007, 08:10 PM

3-0 Sox in the 3rd.

Dice-K walks Rios with 1 out. Lets see if he can keep from imploding.

Boy, I'm going to be happy after he has a few good outings and we don't have to worry that he's going to walk the bases loaded every time he lets 1 guy on....

AutomatedTeller · 05-09-2007, 08:30 PM

well, he's had a runner on in each inning, I think, so he's been working out of the stretch - it's good to see that he's not been imploding.
