G20-21-22: Red Sox at Cleveland

0427, 6 PM - Was hoping to find a bar with the Sox game on ESPN, but it turns out we have to get up at about 4:45 tomorrow/Friday morning to take a four-hour train from Cuzco to Machu Picchu. So it´ll be an early night.

0426, 7 PM: We are in Cuzco tonight and Thursday. Maybe we´ll find a bar with ESPN for tomorrow nights game.

Nice to see Manny come through last night, after Schilling was left in for the seventh. I was following along for the 7th via Gameday and it seemed like a mistake even before the game-tying hits. 133 pitches -- WTF? ... Tonight: Go Timmy!

0425, 9:30 AM - We have landed safely in Peru. I thought the country was in the eastern time zone, but apparently it is one hour west/earlier. And you know what time that is, right?



Probables:
Tuesday: Red Sox 8,Cleveland 6
Wednesday: Cleveland 7, Red Sox 1
Thursday: Cleveland 15, Red Sox 3
Schilling:
          IP  H  R ER BB  K  PIT

0408 @BAL 7 3 1 1 2 4 114
0414 SEA 8 3 1 1 0 7 104
0419 TB 6 6 1 1 1 7 108

28 17 5 5 4 23 443 1.61
Keep it going.

4 walks, and 23 K's. Wow. I guess he's feeling okay.

Clemens to Yanks just about a done deal. That's what I heard on the Sox Htfd. radio station. Details at my blog, linked here. Cannot believe it, if true.

NY Post now saying it's not true, but... Well, there's no guarantee he'll pitch all that well, anyway. Though I'd prefer it be for us than for them, it will be a risk for whoever gets him.

i don't like him, but i'd rather he be with us than the yankees.

but obviously the yankees need yet another royal in their hand, cause ya know. only 26 world championships and they haven't won one in 6 years. *steinbrenner panic button tantrum*

anyone else watch the classic game on nesn last night where roger got 20 strike-outs? gd there were alot of empty seats at fenway..

only two sox pitchers to win five games in april? babe ruth in 1917 and pedro martinez in 2000.

and schilling if he gets a win tonight - though he´s trailing after 6 and has thrown 100 pitches. sox have to score in the 7th.

....... and as i type ortiz ties the game with a solo HR!!!!! fucking amazing!!!

I watched some of the game from the bar in the stadium before watching the Giants play the Mets. The Mets are pulling an extreme shift on Bonds, and the Giants did on Delgado.

can't blame bard tonight for the inoppurtune passed balls..wake's knuckler wasn't there, he put us in a hole early and, uh, no offense again.

lee took care of ortiz twice, once with the bases loaded (doh). that sucked. but willy mo homered at least :)

;( i hate it when we lose.


hope yr having fun down there, red sock. i'm jealous ;)

Only encouraging number from last night was the 32 team LOB for the Yanks. O, and Mariano Rivera's 4.91 ERA.

You're in Peru, right? Keep an eye peeled. Broussard's first homer should be landing any time now.
