G145: Orioles 4, Red Sox 0

Two hits.

Singles from WM Pena and Krapler in the second inning. Two runners as far as second base. ... Errors from Gonzo and Belli help the Birds get two in the second and Cabin Mirror pops a two-run shot in the fourth. ... At least the game zipped by (ending at 9:37).

Tim Wakefield (4.14) / Erik Bedard (3.91), 7 PM

Wakefield returns to the mound for the first time since July 17.

Sorry for not having anything new today. Busy working on some non-baseball writing.

Hey, we had hits, pural, tonight.

(2)

I'd like to see us not be eliminated until after the Yankees series. Please.

Jere said...

Plural. Sorry.

The MFY's magic number is now 7.

But who really cares when it happens at this point?

I'm sure that this weekend the classy fans in the Bronx will give our boys a sincere round of applause for being such a formidable opponent that ran into a nearly unprecedented run of bad luck regarding injuries and thus fell out of what would have been a thrilling and exciting race.

Because they're all about the love up there. ... In the Bronx. ... The Yankee fans.

Yup.

It'll be fine.

Ahhhh, life in RSN ... where we feel worse after a 6-5 win than we do after a 4-0 loss.

Off to bed, to dream of Truck Day 2007 ...

This kind of plural we DO NOT need.

Just meant I don't want them to clinch with us in the opposing dugout. I would've said I wanted them to clinch after OR before we play in the Bronx, but before isn't quite possible...unless we lose 4 games tonight alone and they win 3. And that somehow does seem possible right about now.

But you really nailed it about those Yankee fans, heh heh.

We all know it's going to end Sunday night with Joe Morgan munching on his own words in the background. Sad to say, but the way the Sox are looking now, I only look forward to Papi/Willie Mo at-bats and AGon vacuuming at shortstop. The rest is just Morgan-munching.

"what possible difference does it make how the team does in the Stadium? Playing for pride? Baloney."

Is this referring to me? Because all I'm saying is that I don't want to see the Yanks celebrate the division with a win over us. That's it. All I'm sayin'. Like, several times now.

Jere said...

You said it right after my comment. I didn't see anyone else around. So I figured, you must be talkin' to me. You talkin' to me?
