G69: Red Sox 9, Orioles 2

Orioles - 000 002 000 - 2  7  0
Red Sox - 010 400 22x - 9 9 1
Lester (7-7-2-1-3, 101) was smooth (save for a sixth-inning stumble) and the Sox hit three home runs.

In the fourth, Baltimore walked Manny to load the bases for Mike Lowell -- who lofted a grand slam into the Monster Seats. Kevin Youkilis and J.D. Drew each hit two-run dongs to make it a laugher.

2.5 GA!

***

Jeremy Guthrie (3.40, 125 ERA+) / Jon Lester (3.50, 125 ERA+)

Another early start -- assuming this guy is wrong.

Red Sox vs Guthrie
&
Orioles vs Lester

  2. Last night at the Bar (Ace's in San Francisco), all the Yankee fans were loading up to get ready to get on the bus (where they could have all the Bud and Bud Light the could drink) for Oakland. I came in and the pre-bus ride madness was brewing, although not as mad as previous years. We Sox fans quietly enjoyed our team cruising to a victory, certain the Yanks would lose. They always seem to when the Bar sends the Bus over to Oakland.

    And so it was.

    A Sox fan and fellow regular pointed out a guy in a green hat. He told me that the guy had "spoken to a scout", who said that there would be press conference Monday annoucing that Bonds was coming to DH for the Sox (and, presumably, that Ortiz was out for the season).

    I did not ask the guy in the green hat about his rumor for two reasons. One, I didn't think it worth investigating -- way too random. And for another, I could not face the utter horror of the (very, very slim) possibility that it might be true.

    I'm sure it isn't. Very, very certain.

  3. ACID!

    Thanks. Then there's the game Ellis pitched against the Reds -- May 1, 1974 -- where he hit the first 3 batters and tried to hit the 4th guy, but walked him and was pulled (or ejected, the box doesn't say).

  5. Bot the Warrior (video):
    "Obviously as you can see it's a war when we go play those guys [Tampa]. In my opinion it is a bunch of bull what they did. All I got to say is what comes around goes around. Payback is a bitch. In my opinion, and the way I feel right now, this thing isn't all settled and done. We still got to play them a few more times and I know when we go into Tropicana things will be a little different than when went in there last time."

  6. Wow, I really enjoyed reading about Dock Ellis.

    "Dock, you're pitching tonight!"

  7. Good evening folks. I'm at press row at Fraser Field - I have an hour to follow GDGD until the Navs game starts.

    If you wanna see my photos from the team's road trip to Sanford, ME last night, Click here. It was a charming little ballpark in the middle of nowhere.

  9. MASN misses the first two pitches. Amazing.

    ReplyDelete
  10. and either masn or rogers screws up and misses the first two pitches of the game, which included the first batter.

    how hard is it to show a game?

    ReplyDelete
  11. L: NESN barely got back in time for the first pitch. But that's still better than missing two.

    ReplyDelete
  12. masn fucked up -- thorne quickly recapped what we missed once they were on.

    so much for the "home team gets the feed" theory.

    now, when we're gone on vacation, it'll probably be all nesn.

    ReplyDelete
  13. NESN used to be horrible that way, often missing pitches to finish their ads. They must have gotten a lot of complaints, b/c now they'll often cut off an ad mid-sentence in order to get back for the game.

  14. Perhaps Ellis' most startling act occurred on May 1, 1974 when he tied the major league record by hitting three batters in a row. In spring training that year, Ellis sensed the Pirates had lost the aggressiveness that drove them to three straight division titles from 1970 to 1972. Furthermore, the team now seemed intimidated by Cincinnati's "Big Red Machine." "Cincinnati will bullshit with us and kick our ass and laugh at us," Ellis said. "They're the only team that talk about us like a dog." Ellis single-handedly decided to break the Pirates out of their emotional slump, announcing that "We gonna get down. We gonna do the do. I'm going to hit these motherfuckers." True to his word, in the first inning of the first regular season game he pitched against the Reds, Ellis hit leadoff batter Pete Rose in the ribs, then plunked Joe Morgan in the kidney, and loaded the bases by hitting Dan Driessen in the back. Tony Perez, batting cleanup, dodged a succession of Ellis' pitches to walk and force in a run. The next hitter was Johnny Bench. "I tried to deck him twice," Ellis recalled. "I threw at his jaw, and he moved. I threw at the back of his head, and he moved." At this point, Pittsburgh manager Danny Murtaugh removed Ellis from the game. But the strategy worked: the Pirates snapped out of their lethargy to win a division title in 1974, while the Reds failed to win their division for the first time in three years.

    Guess they had different suspension rules back then, eh.

  15. man, that must have really hurt cabin's knee.

    ...

    We gonna do the do.

    Hmmm, I sense Bot saying the same thing above.

    ReplyDelete
  16. The article from the '71 HBP game doesn't mention whether Ellis was ejected. Everyone just thought it was a coincidence--"wow, I've never seen anyone so wild." Stuff like that. Despite that he was trying to hit every guy!

    wikipedia says he was taken out: "The clean-up batter Tony Perez avoided Ellis' attempts, instead drawing a walk, and after two pitches aimed at the head of Johnny Bench, Ellis was removed from the game by manager Danny Murtaugh."

  17. buck martinez says this early start time means that most of field is in the sun.

    as he says this, masn shows the field and only parts of RF and RCF are in sun -- 85% of the field is in shade.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Yeah, 15%. Most. Come on, you gotta think like an Oriole announcer before you can truly understand and appreciate one.

    Nice play, Mora. Incredibly, the play was in the 85% shade portion of the field. What are the odds??

    ReplyDelete
  19. Youk's finally out of his slump, then?

    ReplyDelete
  20. buck also talking about what a special pitcher guthrie is -- he can make good pitches in an inning, then go back to the bench, and come back out for another inning and continue to make good pitches. consistency!

    how rare.

  21. Crowd of about 15 so far at the Navigators game LOL

  22. ken tremendous could tape one orioles broadcast and get six months worth of FJM material out of it.

  23. guthrie very consistent -- at going to 3-2 counts (6 of last 7 hitters)

  25. More strangers in my house right now, looking at apartment--I love how they always ask what's going on in the game!

  26. you should give them a recap in your old timey language.

    ReplyDelete
  27. BTW, jere, any suggestions for how to go about getting an apartment in Providence besides craiglist?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Jere, I missed it, where you are moving to?

    ReplyDelete
  29. These guys are obsessed with the Orioles hitting doubles. Is there a special prize at the end of the season for the team w/ the most doubles?

    ReplyDelete
  30. Oh, actually, we're buying a house, so I couldn't tell ya about apartment stuff---L, we're moving to Providence area. I'll give more specifics when the deal goes through....

    ReplyDelete
  31. But phil, maybe I could hook you up to somebody, somehow, like, through our agent.

    ReplyDelete
  32. thorne said last night that doubles were better than home runs because they keep a pitcher on edge.

    doubles > HR

    !!! pure idiocy.

    ...

    jere, you sure you'll get nesn there? :>)

    ReplyDelete
  33. Wow, congrats on buying a house! That's exciting. When do you close, or have you already?

    ReplyDelete
  34. Phil, what's your source for the italicized Dock Ellis quote you posted?

    ReplyDelete
  35. So Providence is the place to be, eh? Phil and Jere both moving there?

    ReplyDelete
  36. sock, I have been starting to think in those old-timey terms....

    The possible-renter just said he was a die-hard Sox fan, and I just got the galley of my book, so I plugged it to him! It's cool to actually have something physical to hold up to people.

    ReplyDelete
  37. L, the inspection is Saturday!

    Yes, I WILL get NESN.... I better..

    ReplyDelete
  38. Man, getting galleys to your book, that is one of the most exciting things in the world.

  39. Closing is in August. Book comes out in August. Looks like an exciting month for us, so we'll see what happens.

  41. we'll get the last coupla water fires of the season in Providence.

    That's the thing they do. Water fires. It's like, fire on the water. And everyone looks at them.

    ReplyDelete
  42. gotta go cook/eat pesto pasta. Later...

  44. masn has cabin's mom on the phone?!?!?

    ReplyDelete
  45. I've never been to these supposed fires, but we were there a few weekends ago as they were about to start, and everybody was out walkin' around, it did seem pretty cool. Nice weather does make everything seem more fun, though. Like, if I'm wearing shorts outside at night, I'm probably having a good time. That sounds weird. Okay, gotta go now.

    ReplyDelete
  46. zenslinger: just google parts of it. I'm at work, so I'm reluctant to keep looking at LSD-related sites.

  47. Phil: Yeah, I ought to wait until I get home as well.

    ReplyDelete
  48. But, thanks. I'm just laughing my butt off at both Dock stories. I don't know which one is funnier.

    ReplyDelete
  49. i wish there was video of the 3 HBP inning.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Water fires? Do they spill oil in a river then light it? Anybody know?

    Some disgustingly polluted rivers will catch fire spontaneously. You used to hear about that in the US - in Pittsburgh, or Newark, other industrial cities. (Not anymore - no industry anymore - everyone's poor but the rivers nice and clean!)

    But in Provindence they do this on purpose? Anybody know what's up with that?

    ReplyDelete
  51. okay, i can't cook without garlic, I have to wait til Kim gets back with it. So I'm back for now. I feel like Tim with all the personal updates. Where is Tim anyway?

    ReplyDelete
  52. i know how to spell providence. that is a typo.

    ReplyDelete
  53. Tim is working like a million hours a week b/c of his car accident.

    Good you cannot cook w/o garlic. I mean, what's the point.

    ReplyDelete
  54. They have these little pots on the river. Apparently they light 'em up.

    Castiglione often mentions the time the Cuyahoga caught fire.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Cuyohoga, good example. The rust belt.

    Pots on the water sound better. I was wondering if they actually pollute the water to light fires, but that would be very strange.

    ReplyDelete
  56. tag a little high, but we'll take the out call.

    ReplyDelete
  57. Thanks for the link, Jere. It's a sculpture installation, looks beautiful. I'd love to see it sometime.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Providence's rivers are basically channeled through what look like paved canals, and they have these little platforms that they build bonfires on. It's really undignified for the rivers.

    ReplyDelete
  59. 67 pitches through five innings. It isn't a no-hitter, but wow.

    ReplyDelete
  60. Yeah, you can see the platforms in the link Jere posted. It looks really pretty.

    I loved shared public events like that. I mean really love.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Good you cannot cook w/o garlic. I mean, what's the point.

    Evening, chaps. My sister did a study about the antibacterial properties of soaps and hand gel and some plants for a class she's taking. The conclusion she game told, which she told me on the phone, was the Purrell hand soap doesn't really do anything... and the best substance they studied for antibacterial properties was garlic.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Many Boston fans rooting for 'coby, against Kobe tonight.

  93. Buck: Another double!
    Thorne: Another double.

    Orioles are tied for 7th in the AL in doubles with about 4 other teams. Wow.

    ReplyDelete
  94. Phil, this is funny. I was about to answer that yes it was a Sox hat. Her mom is a huge fan. But I decided to check the real picture which is about a foot away from where I'm sitting, just to see if it's like one of those light blue Sox hats, or one of the other styles besides the basic one.

    I look at it to find out it's NOT a Sox hat. It's an Aruba hat. So like you, I saw that pic and thought it was a Sox hat, and only now am I realizing it's been an Aruba hat all along.

  97. DAMN IT - why couldn't salazar have hit a home run there?

    ReplyDelete
  98. Now I'm thinking I should try a product or two before I post. Then I could say how nice they are.

    I'll order a couple of things, then write about it when we get back from Nfld. Considering those products are handmade and not mass produced, they are not expensive at all.

    If you don't mind, tell Kim I will email her about this soon, like tomw.

  110. Hey guys, im Gareth, i'm from Ireland. Just wanted to say that the blog is fantastic. Baseball isn't so big in this country, so i will claim to be Ireland's biggest sox fan. I write the only sox blog in the whole country. Quick question if you don't mind, 2008 AL rookie of the year, Evan Longoria or Jacoby? My vote goes to Jacoby every time, Just because of what he adds to the team, His speed both on the bases, and in the outfield in phenomenal. I think it will be back to back rookie of the year for beantown.

    ReplyDelete
  111. Hi Gareth, I might be the biggest Ireland fan here. :)

    Jacoby is ROY. No contest.

    I think this guy is also an Ireland-based Sox fan. You guys may have to fight it out!

  113. why is lester out there? 90 pitches - tiring, possibly feeling the effects of the 130 pitch game a bit back.

    tito trying to squeeze an extra inning. with a 3-run lead, i guess it's okay, but they should not let lester go much over 100

  114. nice inning from sid. 11 pitches = 101 total.
