Yankees - 000 000 100 - 1 12 0Tazawa was brilliant (6-8-0-2-2, 99), pitching out of several jams. He stranded four Yankees at third base and another two at second.
Red Sox - 340 023 02x - 14 15 0
Comparing Tazawa's outing and Brad Penny's Friday night BP session -- and knowing that Tim Wakefield will start on Wednesday against the White Sox -- it would seem that Penny might lose his spot in the rotation.
Kevin Youkilis knocked in a career-high six runs with two home runs and a double. Dustin Pedroia had two doubles, a single, walk, stolen base and four runs scored. David Ortiz doubled and homered and drove in three. Hell, Alex Gonzalez hit a solo dong in the second inning!
Thirteen of the Red Sox 14 runs came with two outs.
Burnett allowed nine runs for the first time in his career (5-9-9-2-6, 97).

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 338 of 338I know....Harv forgot when he invited them (or maybe he knew the Yankees would be losing 7-0). Oh, well, I will be keeping one eye on the game while trying to be sociable.
And I get 201!
Gotta leave too. Going to watch Distric 9 with my friend who really needs some company.
I leave this to you, JOSers.
Excellent
Taz = Houdini Jr
Who is post-polio?
Joba's father. That's why we have to suffer through mid-inning hagiographies of the fellow replete with fistpumps.
Harv forgot when he invited them (or maybe he knew the Yankees would be losing 7-0)
Ask Harvey who is going to win the division.
Except it isn't Joba's father that's so awesome. It's Joba, whose father's sacrifices made his awesomeness possible. JOBA'S AWESOME AND IT'S TIME EVERYONE KNEW IT.
Who is post-polio?
Joba's father.
Oh big deal. I thought it was a player. That would be something (although not unique). His father? Pffft.
Harv keeps telling me not to assume the Red Sox cannot win the division. I think he likes to be nice, or he is just torturing me with fake hope.
OK, gtg! GO SOX!
HIS IS THE WHEELCHAIR OF POWER YOU MUST ALL BOW TO HIS MOBILITY ENHANCING MECHANICAL CONVEYANCE
Rolly Polio
Harv is correct. You should not assume. Hope is not fake. The results may not work out, but the hope is real.
HIS IS THE WHEELCHAIR OF POWER YOU MUST ALL BOW TO HIS MOBILITY ENHANCING MECHANICAL CONVEYANCE
Pfft.
Joni Mitchell is post-polio.
Just thought I'd mention that.
Taz at 85.
Will Tito try to buy a few outs -- and maybe pull Taz if a guy gets on or at a round # of pitches?
Why are you talking about dog-abusing USian football players. This is baseball. We do not want to discuss such matters.
I hope that the MFYs go down in a plane crash en route to Anaheim. This is my hope.
What if Manny ran a dog-fighting operation and tortured and murdered tons of dogs?
Or *Bonds*?
Allan, you would love the radio right now. Completely fixated on college sports - what cities are best, where you want to see college games, blah blah blah
Is that your hopes and dreams?
Well then dog fighting would be topically relevant to BASEBALL.
QUADRANGULAR!!!!!!!!!!!
PAPI DONG!!!!!!
FLO!!
SUCK ON THAT I'M USING CAPS BECAUSE ORTIZ JUST DONGED
And not for any other reason.
bench this
Come on, gotta get Burnett out of the fucking game to tax their bullpen for tomorrow...

OMG, can you imagine.
It would only confirm many people's opinions of them. You can be sure they wouldn't be working this soon after their friggin conviction.
AJ on mound as ball sails out:
"WHY? Why would you throw that?"
:>)
Thunder Double
9-0!!!!
More! More! More!
IF ONLY HE CARED ...........
dong double double
new drink at tim hortons
Truped on that
Still, I'll take a GRD
"It's very difficult to figure out this game."
Perhaps you can shut up about it, then. Just show the action. We can compose our own thoughts.
Good evening. And how much better an evening it is to be greeted by this score!
Just got an email:
My wife and I are watching the game right now. After the close up of Burnett after he gave up Ortiz homer, she pipes up and says "he looks beavis from beavis and butthead". Hahaha!! You must call Burnett "beavis" on the blog Lol!!
(Sent from my BlackBerry device on the Rogers Wireless Network)
I can't BELIEVE I'm missing this nirvana!! I HATE Fox more than I hate Teixiera. Guess I'll have to watch each Sox dong five times apiece on MLB.com later...
AJ's expressions this inning have been priceless.
I say give the kid a coupla more outs.
bard up
I wouldn't mind winning 17-1. For old times' sake.
farrell out
bard is ready
i guess they can "spare" a run to see if taz can get out of it.
i mean i guess that is the thinking
Alright, DP time
I love that email!
I thought we already called someone Beavis - at least you do, A.
i used to call the brother that, no?
dp!
FUCK YEAH!
oh yeah, that was it. the brother.
never mind.
There it is!
6-8-0-2-2, 99
excellent, more than we could have hoped for!

MFY LOB!
Great outing for Tazawa
No question anymore: he stays in the rotation and Penny goes when Wake comes back
4 runners on 3rd in 6 innings, and no runs. Tazawa has definitely affected the MFY's LOB numbers today.
Alfredo Assface in
Burnett: 5-9-9-2-6, 97
...
we need a good side by side comparison of Aj and beavis
No question anymore: he stays in the rotation and Penny goes when Wake comes back
I can't wait.
No question anymore: he stays in the rotation and Penny goes when Wake comes back
I'd guess there'll be another use of the phantom DL, in case Wake is reinjured. I don't think they'll get anything for him on the waiver wire...
LBJ wants to set the SB mark on the ESPN marquee game. None of this Fox shit for him!
FY with a SASAHE double.
Wheee!!! 10-0!!! Keep em coming!
Double Digits!
I won't be thrilled if we cough this game up!
MFY DROWNING IN SWEAT!!!!!!!!!
Make that 11!!!!
SWEAT POWER!!!!!!!
12-0!!!
This is nice....
Nope sorry make that 12! I'm all confused
Man, we gotta go for 20 runs
23 runs in 15 innings against these clowns
Papi trying to take out Dumbo there
tito saying something that is cracking tiz up. maybe it's about whacking dumbo!
taz = my hero
shakespeare, don't fuck it up
GAS!
Sit
i think you'll win more games scoring 11-12 runs a game than getting 20 and then 0.
i think you'll win more games scoring 11-12 runs a game than getting 20 and then 0.
Sure. If we always scored 11-12 runs a game, that would be great.
Remember when we were all here chanting and reciting for runs?
maybe rice was right. maybe jeter did ask out of this game.
No shut out today. Oh well.
fuck, i wanted a shutout.
Gah, no shutout today
BTW, anybody else think Smoltz will pitch great for St. Louis? It's like the Sox are the Cards' own reclamation project pool.
girardi waving the white flag.
Come on Bard, cut the crap
Bard has been giving up dongs all over the place.
I wonder how good Bard could be if he replaced his changeup with a splitter
Shakespeare can get all his dongs out now, then be brilliant in October.
10 NYY LOB
"Shakespeare can get all his dongs out now, then be brilliant in October."
Also why it's best for Beckett to get all of his crap out in Toronto before tomorrow night's game
Also why it's best for Beckett to get all of his crap out in Toronto before tomorrow night's game
No worries, it's gonna be the mythological Captain Jason tomorrow behind the plate.
Girardi takes a page out of Tito's book and puts the backup catcher at third
I never understood why Tito did that with Cash last season
No worries, it's gonna be the mythological Captain Jason tomorrow behind the plate.
...Which I guess would make the rest of the team the Argonauts...
Also why it's best for Beckett to get all of his crap out in Toronto before tomorrow night's game
Maybe so, but since that was 1 of only 3 times I saw the Sox this season, I wasn't so sure.
Obie hyping tomorrow's pitching matchup like crazy. I think I'd rather see another slugfest.
I'd like to see another one-sided slugfest
Oh yes, I forgot that crucial word: one-sided.
ftr, i was going to say "as long as the slugfest is one-sided".
Kevin - profile not available - hmmm - Allan's alter ego?
Green in LF again...ugh
"Kevin - profile not available - hmmm - Allan's alter ego?"
I've never bothered creating one for blogger, this is really the only site I where use blogger.
Radio guys comparing this pitcher to El Guapo.
Altho saying he has a few years to go until he's Garcesesque
Nice
Alright, I'm stepping out for a bit, not sure if I'll be back for the 9th
... and a few more buffet tables.
How is Joe Girardi's hearing? He might want to listen very carefully.
bot up - rut roh
bot up - rut roh

More! More! More!
mccarver says kotchman sacrified a lot in coming to boston.
umm, wasn't he traded?
Thanks! 13-1
And what did he sacrifice?
playing time
going from full-time to bench player
but unless he had some no-trade list he waived, he had no choice whatsoever
A lot of people would rather be on the bench on a contending team than play f-t for losers.
14-1!
YOOOOOOOOOOOOK
Come on, just 3 more for the 17-1.
Ho hum, we'll have to settle for 14-1.
fox only one full inning late in saying green is in left!!!
Obie giving Cactus credit for Taz
what's new
LYNDON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great catch by LBJ?
Sounds like most people have left Fenway. True?
Molina at 3B for 1st time in his career.
So tell me about Lyndon play??
behind the plate is full
line drive to right center, sprinted to his left and dived flat out to get it
The water is Muddy!!!
Filthiest Water!
[thanks]
Fun! Pick up another game tomorrow!
Footsteps, Joe. Footsteps...
Excellent game.
Thirteen of the Red Sox 14 runs came with two outs.
Love it.
I can't believe I wasn't here to share the rest of this game. I did catch a few more innings while making drinks for the neighbors. At least I felt we were safely in the lead when I couldn't watch.
2 out of 3 would feel SO good.
TEX: 002 001 00
FKR: 010 200 0
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I really hate I couldn't watch this. But then again, I didn't have to watch last night's debacle either, so I guess I'm even.
Took the grandkids to Trade St. for music. Melva Houston, jazz & blues singer, did the downtown block party tonight. Very good.
I left when it was 7-0, and had Bobby call me after it was over. When he gave me the final I mentioned that there once was a time when the Yankees had beaten us 3 games in a row, with the last one being an absolute humiliation. Seems the win that next night was the start of something kinda special.
Hey, not predicting, just saying, ya know?
TEX: 002 001 001 0 - 4 7 2
FKR: 010 200 010 1 - 5 9 0
This is good.
Our WC lead goes to 2.
FKR stay 3 behind us.
