Mike Lowell reached base five times: single, three doubles, walk;
Dustin Pedroia had two singles, one home run, three runs scored;
JD Drew and Julio Lugo each had two hits; and
Brandon Moss got his first career hit and scored his first career run.
Tonight's game tied the Angels record for longest nine-inning home game: 4:02 (also set on September 30, 2000 against Seattle).
***
Jon Lester (5.09 ERA) / Dustin Moseley (4.43 ERA)
JD Drew will play center field tonight.
And Brandon Moss gets the start in right.
It's hard to argue with WMP:
I want to be traded. I want to play. They know I want to play. I'm surprised I wasn't traded before the deadline. ... They want me to perform, but how can I perform when I have just a couple of at-bats, then they take me out, and I don't play again for days? They said I would be given a chance to play, but it hasn't happened. ... I am not a guy who has caused any trouble, but I want to play.Check out Pena's home/road split this year:
PA AVG OBP SLG OPS
Home 90 .138 .233 .200 .433
Away 74 .324 .378 .632 1.010

yes yes. YES!!!! hehe
3 hits for Dubya. I mean the Doobler. Or whatever.
He can just Moseley on off the mound!
And fittingly the DOUBLE-u B commercial comes on.
i think this wb ad is a bit much.
Right?
Nice! Lowell gives us the lead again! Great job of hitting by Lowell. I think he's 3 for 3 tonight.
And fittingly the DOUBLE-u B commercial comes on.
lmao, saw that. good ol' nesn bonding.
actually, yah, good on ya jere. totally fitting :)
still. i'm reminded of like sister act or something and whoopi goldberg's fro when it comes on.
WTF? Darren Oliver? Did a zombie movie just cut in?
haha tdcg...i was thinking more Home Alone, just because of that scene near the end with the choir.
It's the Like a Prayer of commercials.
come on captain tekski...do something useful!
not useful for reggie willits!
Bonds: 757. Pulling away from A-Rod.
I hate how she waits so long to say "Yes!" That's something you say spontaneously. You can't run across the room, holding it in, and then say it.
Some crappy team should bring back Aaron and have the opposing pitchers throw meatballs to him so he can pass Bonds.
Drew looks awesome in center.
Gotta get up real early tomorrow, so good night everyone. Go Sox!
It's the Like a Prayer of commercials.
haha! it is...*spastic madonna flourish*
there was a choir scene in home alone?? (choir scenes ftw!) ;)
ps. goddamnit!!! this game...
OK, lets suffer through SL for this inning and hope that Vlad doesn't come around and score. Then the amazing quad of DelOkaGagPap can come in and finish off the Obtuse Angles.
That shows you that the Jeter play in Oakland was just fundamental play, not a miracle. (In both plays the runner didn't slide and barely beat the throw--this one the ump got right.)
goodnight matty :)
White Flag being raised in the pen.
PS: re: home alone choir scene, there definately is, when he goes to the church on xmas eve (near the end of the movie) - he meets scary old dude with shovel there.
should he have tried to get vlad?
*not acute!*
i'm still here. l's asleep on the couch.
so we win this, 18-15, right?
PS: re: home alone choir scene, there definately is, when he goes to the church on xmas eve (near the end of the movie) - he meets scary old dude with shovel there.
yeah i remember that, i just don't recall a rousing gospel choir.
dude, you walked mrs. garret.
hook 'em tito.
so we win this, 18-15, right?
it's shaping up that way isn't it? i can't believe it's just the 5th.
i wouldn't say it was rousing. just the church choir thing. if you're going for a rousing church choir, then hell yeah, sister act all the way.
---------------
glass half full view: potential DP now available.
timlin in with guys on 1st and 3rd and 1 out, up by 1. ... what could go wrong?
Nothing at all.
(if this was 93)
Waste one, Mike.
i'm trying to think of other church choir scenes to distract myself from this timlin moment.
hmmm...
(yah waste one)
good pitch. why'd he have to go and get a piece.
I just got home from doing my show and am taking a quick scan of the comments...
C'mon folks - where is the love? (obviously not between Yugo and Look) but let's give the sox some.
sheisserrr.
That was a really nice play. Too bad we didn't get that swing call.
it's the 40th anniversary of the summer of love. yeah, more love!
Wow, Michael did far better than I could have hoped for with inherited runners.
Time of Game (5 innings): 2:21
Here's some luv: I'm calling a HR for WMP here.
WHOA -- look at that hair!!!!!!!!!
silly me. and my crazy luv.
Jesus, Wily Mo, if ya can't hit Darren Oliver ....

Here's some luv: I'm calling a HR for WMP here.
I like that love. not reciprocal, though.
I thought '68 was the summer of love. Or was that the year of the pitcher?
I like the standing bat touch.
omg they re-made halloween? just stop hollywood. stopppp.
ps. jere, nope, it was 67 :)
ray manzarek just did a good show about it (in part) for bbc radio. right here
:)
tito sends timlin out for a 2nd inning -- AGAIN!
his blind devotion to white flag annoys me greatly.
ROB ZOMBIE remade Halloween....
Yeah, it was 67. I laid lots of sod that summer but some of my buddies did OK.
When was the Summer of George?
aha.
"I laid lots of sod"
Got laid lots: de Sade.
Sorry, I'll use the "it's late" excuse.
You got yer 1390, yer 1440, AND the 1550!
The house of pain! Oh yeah!
Let's do it, Okie!
Look at Tito over there, talkin it up with Timlin. Fucking chums.
If this game keeps up at the pace it's going, I just may have to pop open the bottle of chardonnay...haha, going classy tonight.
Great, defensive indifference to the go-ahead run.
OH YEAH! YOUVE BEEN BAT-DADDED!
Nice, Oak! This could be a 400-comment night....
looks the the two of us will have to carry the load!
i need that wb ad right now.
keep my spirits up.
Jeemer!!
Now Lugo, you have the perfect opportunity to show up your counterpart and become a true Red Sox.
scout-taylor compton as laurie strode.
no, just. no.
I feel some lurkers.... By the way, my drink of choice is Marshmallow Fluff, with pieces of chocolate in it. Fun.
OH!!!!
FUCK YEAH DUSTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
HR! Orsillo, didn't you see the ball bouncing behind him in the pen?? Woohoo!!
haha, clearly not....that def went off his glove
Off the glove. Bout time we caught a nice break like that.
Dustin!!!
Mrs. Garrett should have let the amazing Matthews fly over to get that. WOOHOO.
Youk having bad luck at the plate tonight. What's Remy talking about?
Manny's settin him up...
By the way, my drink of choice is Marshmallow Fluff, with pieces of chocolate in it. Fun.
Do go on...this sounds delicious. (it better involve that fluff marshmallow paste stuff!)
Is that what you drink at the punk rock shows while the kids are drinking 40s of Olde English and Rum and Cokes? hahaha
so remy blathers on about stuff, but curious stuff actually happening around the game. curious incident..let's just ignore it.
chown.
Exactly. My alcohol is junk food and candy and stuff.
were they playing a shift on drew there? or was aybar just that rangeful?
Chone, to me, looks like Grandmaster Flash. Who looks like Willie Randolph.
If Lowell triples and homers in this at bat, he's got a cycle.
So last night Remy mentions this mysterious fire near the Stadium, and tonight it's "everyone moving in the bullpen" or whatever. I think it's the Summer of Love for him if you know what I mean.

lmao, i remember that one. he wouldn't shut up about it...but can ya blame him for his own summer of love...(just had a wicked deja vu when i pasted that comment into this box...weird)
I thought I heard Teener suggesting on Sunday that they all go up to that famous Red Sox bar for a day trip. Maybe it was today. Maybe he's still giddy from a day out with Teener.
sob.
jaw-dins.
Man. Well, I feel safe with this one run lead.
Get Okie to chop through the 7th, Dim the 8th and Snuff the 9th and we're golden - back to 6 GA, and on the way up.
those red sock fans did not do their job right there.
hey jere, coco's in the game. lol.
chrissakes, i was about to say - is that coco in CF? so much for a day off...
WHA. Jesus, I was dozing off there and had a flash of an easy ground ball to Lugo. Scared the shit out of me. Oh.

Your TV must be broken...
TV should be fixed now.
God no. Now pop-ups are in the nightmare bank.
*invokes rousing church choir*
The only thing that would make that commercial better would be that frog at the front and center of the choir...
*froggy voice* "ON THE DOUBLE-U BEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"
(that reminds me of a Dave Chappelle live standup bit...not going to post the details here, but it's quite hilarious)
My power went out! Just got it back. Fortunately I found the radio and Geffner got me through that last inning. Acted like Lugo should've caught that ball....
lol, tim.
(dimmer is up)
It's really scary when you've got the AC running, all the lights, the TV, in the middle of the night, and then it's just quiet and dark. And my girlfriend has all these glow in the dark skulls, one of which I found myself face to face with while feeling for the radio.
He really should have caught it.
God no. Now pop-ups are in the nightmare bank.
Your nightmare bank doesn't have the google toolbar? that badboy has a pop-up blocker!
nice, coco.
WTG Moss!
First hit for Brandon "Arroyo" Moss.
hetfield gets a hit!
Here comes Remy talkin about the classic first hit prank.
he loves that.
Lugo's sac bunt attempt goes 20 rows back of the plate, jesus.
muahahaha! FINALLY!
Nice sacrifice, Lugo. Now just a fly ball, minimum.
Watch him find a way to make a triple play out of this.
lol those comments are making me giggle.
That'll do!
There's your minimum. Good enough.
ok guys he got it done ;p
Odds are Lugo makes an out from the dugout.
omg that was not a strike.
Are there ANY Angels fans left in the park?
my blogger connection was fucked up, but it seems good now.
huzzah for moss!!!
Lugo causing a forfeit would not surprise me at this point.
scioscia always looks childishly perplexed.
lol i had to look up his name spelling.
Are there ANY Angels fans left in the park?
They know they're about to be dimmed and snuffed.
Gagne with a spoon, Pap with a save.
it's a shame we wont get to see frod again tonight, hootin and hollerin, jumpin around pointing to the sky, doing cartwheels while fireworks come out of his fingers as he gets a save.
should be pap with a smear. (sorry, i couldn't let that go;))
Like I said, Youk with bad luck at the plate tonight. Did Lugo call timeout before that pitch?
thanks, tdcg...just puked a lil in my mouth.
Yeah, this game is due for its annual Smear.
ahahaa ;p
presents!
96 tears for the Angels.
RED SOX! - FUCK YEAH!
comin again to save the mothafuckin day, yeah!
(sidenote: sorry for all the profanity people, i've been in a swearing mood this week)
*tumbleweed*
lol, no i'm mutherfucking with you ;)
I'd love to hear what these dickhead Angel announcers are saying about their shittiness but I have an irrational fear of both balls hit to Lugo and jinxs.
*dim all the lights sweet darlin..*
My first view of Gagne...
"It's like a four-hour game." --George Louis Costanza
Get 2.
Maybe not with Figgins.
Did Orsillo just say "You guys wonderin? It's been awhile." ???
If so, then: That's what she said!
he looks all hot and uncomfortable. why wear long sleeves in socal heat?
oh i get it, gagne is the new 'let's make it interesting' guy.
Why is he wearing long sleeves when it's a pleasant 71 in Anaheim right now.
Nice K on Ch-own. I retract my previous statement.
Figgins takes the Newt out of Fig Newtons. But puts an extra I in there. I of Newt.
Nice K, Gagne
great minds think alike tdcg ;-)
Aight, its been dimmed. Time for some snuffage.
Dien Bien PHU! (Popped Him Up)
^5 ;)
71...but the humidity is at a flesh-toasting 59%. so.
I must say, it took me like 7-8 seconds to register the "^5"...the thought of googling it had crossed my mind when I was like "Ohhhh! Iiiiiii'm dumb."
haha ;)
What a night for Lowell.
tek: not as many butt-grabs for moving the runner over this time.
so much for getting up early and exercising before work tomorrow. quick bowl of corn flakes and i'm out the door....it used to be roll out of bed and into the car basically, so breakfast is an improvement.
not sure if im ready to jump right into this exercise thing just yet...baby steps.
yeeeaaa! don just gave us some props! 2am on the east coast!
And the Doctor slices that perfectly, just like the bat was a scalpel.
Too bad Tekczynski can't say the same.
(I love how his name gets more and more Polish each time i type it)
(so tired.)
get on so Moss can get his first ML HR
time for moss' first HR?
*church choir?*
i could totally go for cereal right now. mf....apple jacks.
oh man, we're all on the same track right now.
Ha! Random Irish dude on Globe commercial!
"Keeps ya in the forefront, politically!"
Oh man....i would love to serve up a cyber-trough of apple jacks right about now.
Oh man, I'm saying oh man so much! Oh man, that must mean I'm tired!
Quad posts, way to go tim.
(probably quint with this)....
Dear Snuffer,
We'ed all like to see that good fastball of yours, you know, the one that explodes at the end. For strikes, of course. Thank you.
Signed,
The boys and girls still left at JoS.
Byung-Hyun Kim's back on the D-backs??--and the home fans booed him tonight, as well they should have. Good for them. I'll never forgive that guy for that '01 performance.
i didn't know wells was 44. he should be retired and getting a muscle-shirt tan somewhere.
That Globe commercial's funny--because they do an identical one for the NY Times.
(did i just say that? or am i dreaming...)
definitely said it.
take that, crotch man!
You may have said it.
it's super dorky. the dude mentioning reading the times w/his dad in his bed? i mean c'mon.
Nerf Crotchbat.
lmao, more comments from Remy on Jerry's Summer of Luv...
"I had no clue what I was saying - I was just pulling names up and throwin em out there!"
I'm almost sad to see it go.
It's been a slice, ladies and gents.
bam.
The 6-up store is open! And we go to Bal, while Yanks go to Cleveland. We'll put some space in there again.
Dear Snuffer,
Thanks bud, you're gold.
Ap-ple Jacks! Ap-ple Jacks!
/churchchoir
ok that was fun. nite guys! :))
Good night folks. It was in the bag. We all knew that statistically, 3 game series rarely end in sweeps. Had it all along.
Good night folks. It was in the bag. We all knew that statistically, 3 game series rarely end in sweeps. Had it all along.
Nothing like a game just ending, followed by a "SportsCenter" highlights show - the first series of highlights they show - the game that just ended! Brilliant.
fucking blogger -- sorry for being unable to post.
you should be sorry - you singlehandedly have to post to get this up to 400.
sidenote: heh, "marshmallow fluff" is still in my Firefox google search box.
Fuck you, Directv. Just scrolled through the guide and located Walker, Texas Ranger.
This episode looks golden already.
Some teacher: "What we consider punishment, the children consider cool."
Walker: "Don't worry, I'll find a way to wipe the smirks off their faces."
Looks like I'll be going to bed at 3.
Byung-Hyun Kim ... I'll never forgive that guy for that '01 performance.
That was all Brenley's fault. ALL.
What was Kim forced to throw, 70-80 pitches in 2 nights?
We don't blame Pedro or Wake for 2003, don't blame Kim for 2001.
Brenley did everything he could to blow that series, but his team was too resilent.
Oh man, this episode has Deion Sanders in it! If I have to post Walker updates to get this thread to 400, I'll do it! If thats what it takes...
That freakin' guy had 9 days off. He comes in and gives up a tying homer when three outs wins the game, and then comes back the next game and does the same thing. I'm not saying I love Brenley and he did a great job, but god, that Kim pissed me off. Especially right at that time. It's bad enough watching the Yanks in the World Series when everyone else is hating them, too. But that year, everybody talked into rooting for them--and me watching that game in some upstate NY bar-- I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone. Never will Kim be forgiven by me. And then we go and get him, when he proves he can't do the one thing we were trying to do, beat the Yanks. I was way madder about that than I was the Arroyo thing. No forgivey-givey.
Glad he didn't pitch in game 6 or 7....
And it wasn't like he was some random pitcher. He was touted, dude. This guy was supposed to shut the door! And even if he did what he did JUST ONE night, I'd have been pissed enough. And he comes back and repeats the feat!
Wait, and it was tying AND winning HR the first time, and tying HR the next game. 3.1 IP in the WS, 3 HR. All to tie or win games in ninth inning or later. Brenley himself could've done better.
Wow, I was really struggling to keep it together near the end there.
I definitely lost it by the time I found Walker, maybe even in the 8th.
Got a little weird last night, didn't it?
I was asleep on the West Coast before this was over...but happy to get up this morning with the good news. We needed this one.
Some teacher: "What we consider punishment, the children consider cool."
Walker: "Don't worry, I'll find a way to wipe the smirks off their faces."
lol. remember when conan obrien used to play random WTR clips on his show?
so hilarious. here's one on youtube
omg wait i found a better one. lol @ about 4:30 ;D
the lever! yes!
i plan to watch those when i get home from work - so good. not sure if this one is in there, but i love the one where they show the old guy (CD) then the villain, then the old guy, then the villain, old guy/villain/old guy/villain/old guy...then the old guy finally goes "It's HIM!"
The one where the old guy dumps a pot of chili on someone is classic, too.
400, with the triple post.
