WS 3: Red Sox 10, Rockies 5

Red Sox - 006 000 031 - 10  15  1
Rockies - 000 002 300 - 5 11 0

Red Sox lead series 3-0
For the first time in World Series history, two rookies had at least three hits each in a World Series game. Ellsbury went 4-for-5, with three doubles, two RBI and two runs scored, while Pedroia was 3-for-5, with one double and 2 RBI.

Lowell singled twice and drive in two runs, Lugo doubled and walked twice, and Matsuzaka knocked in two runs with a single in the six-run third.

Colorado closed the Red Sox's lead to 6-5 in the seventh when Holliday blasted a three-run home run to dead center of Hideki Okajima's first pitch. Jeemer then allowed a single, but got three straight outs to end the threat. Boston answered with three of their own in the top of the eighth -- with one out, Lugo walked, Coco Crisp singled, Ellsbury doubled in one run, and Pedroia doubled in two more.

Jon Lester takes the hill tomorrow night as Boston goes for its second straight World Series sweep. ... (Did I just type that?!!?)

"big papi eats big boogers"

???

Colin said...

You may have taken Flo down, but now MHMBM is up.

thatdietcokegirl said...

papi = not bothered.

s1c said...

nixon33 said...

laura k said...

Let's go MHMBM!

nixon33 said...

nixon33 said...

ok doc. up to you, baby!

Colin said...

It's all right Manny. We're wearing him down for the doc.

s1c said...

Crap!

Dear Doctor,

We are requesting your specialty.

Thanx,
RSN
Joy Nation

allan said...

yo doctor!

you know this dump, get a hit.

Colin said...

These fans are interesting. I saw a Teletubby (looking like he was choking btw), the Jolly Green Giant, and a guy with a Stormtrooper helmet.

laura k said...

Look at that 2-out stat. Amazing.

Ofer said...

Come on, Doc, don't let me leave the house without a lead.

laura k said...

Yeah, it's Halloween there tonight.

Erin said...

Colin,

I think they're just celebrating Halloween a little early.

s1c said...

I sure hope Daisuke gets these same calls. That wasn't close to being a strike.

laura k said...

Who'd want to be a storm trooper? Bad karma there.

SoSock said...

Shit - guess I'd better go get the right shirt on - NOW!

JOSH FOGG IS NOT PITCHING A PERFECT GAME !!

nixon33 said...

fuck. worked some counts. but fuck.

laura k said...

Rats. Oh well. Here we go Dice-K.

Colin said...

It's ok guys. We gave him some trouble and we'll keep pressing on him.

s1c said...

Crap. Fragging sox. Stupid car commercial, fragging Fox.

Colin said...

Oh yeah I forgot Halloween was around the corner. Silly me.

allan said...

Speaking of Halloween.

Rob said...

Rats. Oh well. Here we go Dice-K.

27 pitches in the first inning is a'ok for me.

nixon33 said...

redsock said...
did i see that correctly?

"big papi eats big boogers"

???


hahaha, thats what i thought it said too!
that cant be right!

Colin said...

Samurai showdown! Let's do it.

laura k said...

27 pitches in the first inning is a'ok for me.

I concur. But still, rats.

allan said...

we have set new postseason records for GIDP.

yet at the same time we set a new alcs record for runs scored.

we get guys on.
we leave guys on.
we get a boat load of runs.
we win.

Colin said...

And with Fogg, at least we're learning how he's pitching so we can rock the shit later on.

Colin said...

Nuts.

Colin said...

Double nuts.

laura k said...

I don't think the sign said that!

nixon33 said...

fuck. come on dicek, hang a zero.
drew gt yr glove down!

allan said...

Buck: WHAT A START FOR COLORADO!!

yeah, a single. oooooohhhh.

(and an E)

Ofer said...

Alright, I'm gone. Enjoy the game, everybody!

laura k said...

Bye Ofer, have fun :)

Erin said...

It definitely said "Big Papi Eats Big Boogers."

Colin said...

Don't get frazzled by Matsui Dice-K. Just throw the strikes and lay off the nibbling.

laura k said...

that sign = crazy

Colin said...

that sign = stupid

nixon33 said...

fuck you! CI jr.

Colin said...

Good K!

laura k said...

DICE K

nixon33 said...

dicek breaking stuff looking good.

allan said...

fox gun says 92 and TT was late on that fb. nice.

WHAT A START FOR MATSUZAKA!!!!

SoSock said...

Yeah, those Red Sox outfielders have got to cover so much ground.
Of course, the outfield gets smaller when the Rockies bat, so it won't help the Sox hitters

huh.

allan said...

hell of a play by dice!!!!!!!!!

Colin said...

Fucking awesome Dice-K!

nixon33 said...

"DICEK FLASHING SOME LEATHAH!"
-remy

laura k said...

All week they've been acting like the Rockies are 81-0 at home.

Ron said...

Wow, very cool Dice.

laura k said...

Nice going Dice!

allan said...

WHAT A START FOR THE ROCKIES!!!!

shut up, buck

Colin said...

Wow Tulowitski is really getting his knickers in a twist.

nixon33 said...

dicek!

s1c said...

Fragging Dog, decides he has to go out so I miss the single error, the K and the good play by dice K, the good news I've got WTIC, the bad news, they aren't carrying uncle joe.

Good start for Daisuke!!

Rob said...

fox gun says 92 and TT was late on that fb. nice.

Joe Morgan said LBJ was overmatched by the pitch he hit up the third-base line from Fogg.

Rob said...

15 pitches for Dice-K in the first inning.

Sounds much nicer than, ya know. 27.

laura k said...

s1c, you're a good daddy, missing a play for the dog

Colin said...

No first pitch swings On Fire. Remember 3-1 is your golden moment.

laura k said...

way to work the count, drew. not.

Colin said...

Damn...damn...damn...

laura k said...

wtf is mcc going on about, varitek as a sergeant major.

wow, he was pissed off there.

s1c said...

s1c, you're a good daddy, missing a play for the dog

;)


Tek looks pissed there and here comes the oh we love tt orgasms.

Colin said...

Sergeant Major? What the fuck are those Fux Sports guys talking about again?

allan said...

mcmoron being mcmoron - sgt major??? in rare form.

will tim transfer his crush from jetes to tulowitzki? stay tuned.

laura k said...

SLUUUUGO

Colin said...

Nice work Lugo.

allan said...

slügö

Ron said...

Wow that right field is huge when the Sox are at bat too!

s1c said...

Yeah, Yerry wouldn't know about having the pitcher lead off, would he mcmoron. After all he only managed for the phillies. You do know that don't you?

Slugo!!!!

SoSock said...

Lugie !!!!
Question (I should know this already) - Do pitchers hit in Japan?

Colin said...

Come on Dice-K! Show up your Colorado counterpart!

s1c said...

Yes pitchers hit in japan!

allan said...

i think they have a DH there too.

laura k said...

During the WS, the announcers always act like the AL manager won't be able to figure it out, not having the DH. I remember hearing Torre tell someone the double switch is not quantum physics.

Colin said...

Damn. Oh well...we'll show 'em next round.

nixon33 said...

well at least dick wont lead off the 3rd. ugh.

SoSock said...

Dice - NOT a hitter

s1c said...

Well blow me down, they have a split dh there also. Central doesn't the Pacific does. I thought it was only our leagues with the split personalties.

allan said...

GUMP is employed as a manager in the NL.

it can't be that hard. jesus.

laura k said...

s1c, i was really surprised by that too! i thought all of japan had the dh.

s1c said...

Hey if you listen to the rumours, Gump is on his way out of LA. Supposedly the Dodgers want to interview Girardi.

laura k said...

well at least dick wont lead off the 3rd. ugh.

did you mean to call him dick or was that a typo? :)

Colin said...

Ouchies...hopefully it leads to a DP.

laura k said...

I thought the rumours have Girardi in the Bronx. Not that I care about rumours, I don't.

Rob said...

Fastball at the neck. Got away from him? Maybe. Maybe not.

Watch out for some retaliation. I heard rumblings that Manny might have been targeted anyway, if the Red Sox scored big the other night.

s1c said...

A little head hunting there?

Hawpe, this series Hafner.

allan said...

Fastball at the neck. Got away from him? Maybe. Maybe not.

What??????

No.

laura k said...

No way that was intentional, IMO.

Colin said...

A K always puts a smile on Boston's face.

laura k said...

Thanks Manny!

allan said...

manny drifts back - no problem.

s1c said...

Watch out for some retaliation. I heard rumblings that Manny might have been targeted anyway, if the Red Sox scored big the other night

Heard that also. Still, rules say you go after a comparable player, not one of the Stars in a retalation move.

nixon33 said...

MANNY CANT FEILD??
whatever fuck faces!

SoSock said...

OMG _ someone caught a ball in the outfield. HOW???
AND - it was a Red Sox player.
Impossible I tell you

allan said...

if that was intentional, then so was ortiz's strikeout -- you know, to make the game close and exciting.

nixon33 said...

1-2-3
ASSOLES!

laura k said...

And lookee there, they failed to score again.

nixon33 said...

wow maybe i am a bad typer! or maybe my keyboard is just broken from me smashing it so many times!

s1c said...

Was just thinking, Daisuke and Jeemer both mentioned this year numerous times that they were struggling getting used to the balls here compared to the ones in Japan. I wonder if the humidored ones are closer to the japanese balls.

Another good inning, give me 4 more just like it and I will be happy.

Rob said...

Heard that also. Still, rules say you go after a comparable player, not one of the Stars in a retalation move.

Then watch out, Pedroia.

HOLY CRAP LOLZZZZ MANNY CAUGHT A BALL AT COORS! SO SURPRISING!!!!!

Rob said...

No way that was intentional, IMO.

I don't think it was intentional. But it doesn't mean there won't be any after-effects.

Anyways, back to the actual game.

nixon33 said...

dicek looking pretty damn good, so far.

Rob said...

Through 2 innings:

Fogg: 39 pitches
Dice: 24

allan said...

dice - 24 pitches thru 2. and 7 of those were to tulo.

laura k said...

i figure with the control problems that have dogged him, dice-k doesn't need to put any more men on base than he has to

he does look sharp. i'm feeling good about this.

laura k said...

that's my boy!!!!

nixon33 said...

LBJ!!!
FUCKING AWESOME!
was close though!

SoSock said...

ELL ON WHEELS !

s1c said...

LBJ!!!!!

Colin said...

Awesome LBJ! Let's keep the pressure on! Steal third and get us a second taco!

nixon33 said...

NICE FUCKING BUNT DROIA!!!

s1c said...

F*** Yeah!!!!

Will take that one!!!

Colin said...

Good bunting Dusty! That was a clutch move.

laura k said...

SAFE!!! Fuck yeah! 1st & 3rd & no outs. Love it.

allan said...

THE TABLE IS SET

s1c said...

PAPI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

laura k said...

LET IT FLO

nixon33 said...

FUCK YEAH! AND HEAR THOSE SOX FANS!!!!!!!

Colin said...

Wanna strike out Flo the first time Fogg? Oh little do you realize Flo comes back in spades!

allan said...

tïzzlë

thatdietcokegirl said...

2 ON IN SCORING POSITION + NO OUTS. I LIKE ;D

allan said...

loaded for lowell -- can the doctor deliver these triplets?

s1c said...

Ducks on the Pond for the Doctor!!!

I fully expect the dragon slayer to soon be slayed.

Colin said...

Well so much for a Manny hit. Let's fill that Rx with a nice hit Doc. Some Prozac (runs) would make us all happy.

Colin said...

loaded for lowell -- can the doctor deliver these triplets?

Awesome line.

laura k said...

doctor, doctor, give us the news...

SoSock said...

Wahhh, Wahhh.
I'm glad the Red Sox are the only ones hurt by that big outfield.

Bob (my friend who watches games with me and puts up with me chatting with you guys all night)says "know why they're walking Manny? cause it's a biiig outfield"
:)

Colin said...

Thanks for the Prozac doc!

thatdietcokegirl said...

'i got a baad case of lovin youu' ;D!

laura k said...

Thank you doctah!!! And still no outs!

allan said...

doc: "it's twins!"

nixon33 said...

THE DOCTAH!!!

s1c said...

Time for ON FIRE!!!! to produce some more runs here!!

I smell, brimstone coming from the dragon!!

Colin said...

I'll name them Dustin and David.

SoSock said...

Is the Fogg lifting, or being lifted?

allan said...

how does on's fire burn at altitude?

nixon33 said...

i love alicea wearing all the gear on his limbs!

laura k said...

Bob (my friend who watches games with me and puts up with me chatting with you guys all night)says "know why they're walking Manny? cause it's a biiig outfield"
:)


hee heee

Colin said...

Well he's slow burning right now. This calls for some gasoline!

allan said...

Is the Fogg lifting, or being lifted?

holy shit - during lowell's AB, i typed this exact phrase, then deleted it, thinking i'd save it for later on.

laura k said...

And the hits just keep coming!

Damn, Manny out. Crap.

But still only 2 outs.

allan said...

BULLSHIT

MBM SAFE.

thatdietcokegirl said...

ah. lol. he shoulda stayed at third. (love how manny can smile tho)

s1c said...

no way, no fragging way.

Gambrinus said...

BS call.

thatdietcokegirl said...

wait, from one angle he looks like he got his hand in before the tag.

laura k said...

Oh shit. We'll just have to beat them by 12 runs again.

nixon33 said...

why send him with ONE FUCKING OUT!
bad slide, missed tag.
bad fucking play.

Colin said...

Damn it. Good effort Manny. Damn ump and his hesitation.

allan said...

left hand in -- and alba did not touch manny's left asspocket.


fuck -- well, so we win by 1 less run.

laura k said...

what does his fucking hair have to do with it???

Colin said...

Give us another Lugo!

laura k said...

walking slugo, you suck fogg

Colin said...

Oh shit. This will be so awesome if there's a hit.

what does his fucking hair have to do with it???

I don't know. It's Fox.

allan said...

DICE -- 2 RUN SINGLE

Gambrinus said...

Wow. I didn't think Dice had it in him.

nixon33 said...

FUCKING DICE K!!!!!!

laura k said...

DICE K WE LOVE YOU!!!!

thatdietcokegirl said...

HE CAN HIT!!!! *HOWL*

Rob said...

WHO DA FUCK JUST SAID DICE-K CAN'T IT!!!!!

LMAO!!!! Wow. Very very awesome!

Colin said...

Holy shit!

Fucking awesome! Two-run hit from dice-K! Fucking awesome!

SoSock said...

I stand corrected -
Dice - a hitter!

s1c said...

Daisuke!!!!!!!

laura k said...

that is fucking fabulous. 1st pitch, gets his 1st ML hit and it's an RBI in the fucking world series!!

Rob said...

Little things like that... you know you've got something special. When your pitcher gets his first MLB hit... in the World Series! Scoring 2 runs!

laura k said...

and my language is a bit out of control

allan said...

buck says crowd trying to get rox back into it.

no, that is the sox fans cheering it up.

laura k said...

Action in the Rox bullpen already!

Colin said...

Tap the rockies motherfuckers!

s1c said...

LBJ yeah, boy!!!!

thatdietcokegirl said...

*happyjoyhappyjoyhappyjoyhappyjoyhappyjoyhappyjoy* ;D!!!

allan said...

oooooo -- coors is scary!!!!

s1c said...

Slayed by the dragon!!!!!!!!

Colin said...

And goodbye Fogg. It was a good effort...

SoSock said...

That sure is a biiiig outfield those poor Rockies' players have to cover
:)

laura k said...

love that dirty water...

nixon33 said...

IT'S...........

thatdietcokegirl said...

buck says crowd trying to get rox back into it.

no, that is the sox fans cheering it up.


exactly.

get it right buck!

Lord Lynch said...

I am struggling, and now we are 6-0 up, I am going to bed.

Night all.

Don't lose this for me.

laura k said...

....INEVITABLE!!!!!!!!!!!

allan said...

fogg faces 10 batters in the third -- and he needs help finishing it up.

Rob said...

Fogg finishes with 66 pitches through 2 2/3 innings!

Don't be surprised if Dice-K kinda labors next inning, though. Running the bases, having to stay out there, etc. But that's okay. We've got a large cushion, yo!

thatdietcokegirl said...

the fogg was just a light mist tonight. now comes the red dawn.

(lol that was cheesy)

Benjamin said...

Finally got to the tv and computer (visiting elderly relatives out of state), and I like what I see.

Still not sure about that Manny play at the plate.

allan said...

And Fogg is gone before he can get even one at-bat!!!!

Benjamin said...

Love that 94.50 era on Morales.

laura k said...

the fogg was just a light mist tonight. now comes the red dawn.

(lol that was cheesy)


cheesy but fun! light mist, i like it.

Colin said...

It's all right Dusty. We may be 6-0, but we've got a whole lotta time to make more. My free taco will be donated to Dice-K for the awesome hit.

allan said...

6 runs = 3 times as many runs as colorado has scored all series.

Benjamin said...

Morales just took 31.5 points off his ERA.

allan said...

ERA down to 63.00!

SoSock said...

Fogg - in a fog, as in Dazed and Confused

laura k said...

I wonder if we'll let them score their traditional one run in this game.

allan said...

how soon before the rox fans head home to their warm abodes?
