Angels - 000 000 000 - 0 7 0Clay Buchholz (7-5-0-2-3, 113) lowered his league-leading ERA to 2.36 and Ryan Kalish hit his second career home run -- a grand slam -- in the fourth inning.
Red Sox - 001 410 00x - 6 8 1
Boston began a nine-game homestand with a relaxing win. Darnell McDonald homered with two outs in the third to get the Sox on the board. In the fourth, David Ortiz singled -- one of his two opposite-field hits -- but Victor Martinez and Adrian Beltre both struck out. Weaver then walked both J.D. Drew and Mike Lowell on full counts and Kalish muscled a change-up into the Red Sox bullpen for the salami dong. Back-to-back doubles from Ortiz and Martinez in the fifth brought in the sixth run.
Buchholz got out of an early jam in the first inning, when Bobby Abreu doubled and took third on a groundout. Alberto Callaspo chopped back to the mound and Abreu was caught off the bag and tagged out 1-2-5. The Angels loaded the bases with two two-out singles and a walk in the sixth, but Buchholz got Erick Aybar to ground out to Lowell at first.
Felix Doubront escaped a bases loaded situation in the eighth. With one out and a runner on first, Torii Hunter and Hideki Matsui singled. After a visit from John Farrell, Doubront struck out Aybar on three pitches. (Aybar also GIDP in the second; thanks, Erick!)
Hunter robbed Beltre of a solo home run in the second inning with a leaping catch over the short bullpen wall in right-center, nearly toppling over into the pen. ... Pedroia went 0-for-4, with a strikeout looking, two groundouts and a pop to center, though he made a few nice plays in the field.
The Yankees beat the Tigers 6-2 and the Rays beat the Rangers 10-1.Jered Weaver / Clay Buchholz
Dustin Pedroia returns to the lineup -- on his 27th birthday! -- after missing 44 games with a broken left foot. He went 1-for-6 in a two-game rehab stint with Pawtucket last weekend. Boston went 23-21 while he was out. Our other Dustin -- Richardson -- was sent down to Pawtucket.Scutaro, SS

Johnny Damon just said on Michael Kay , by far hands down NY was the best place to play, Boston wasn't even close, he wonders why he gets booed
If he does wonder, he's a bigger idiot than I thought.
I'm in some shocking attire tonight. I painted more this afternoon, needed an old t-shirt that could get wrecked. Guess what. Something I never threw out.
Should I change before game time?
Change ... Yes.
Yay: Daniel Nava is back as Eric Patterson goes on the DL with a strained neck.
I think you should keep the tee and be Tangerine Laura for the evening.
I was painting blue (the trim) today, but it's funny you say that. During a night of music and dancing in Peru, some folks were referring to me as La Madarina because I was wearing an orange-ish t-shirt.
But you got why the attire is shocking, right? It's not the colour. It's the logo. Something old from the bottom of the drawer...
Uh-oh, back from your dark days as a MFY fan?
Better change--
That is correct.
Dark days, 1975-June 2003
Sox need to go 7-2 on this home stand, imho, to put the pressure on the Rays
Well, have you changed??? Or are you trolling with a tee that should not be on JOS?
Welcome back, Fuck Yeah! Happy Birthday!
I have not changed. I'm not superstitious. :)
I knew what the T-shirt would be before scrolling down!
I have lots of t-shirts that are really old, but no NYY shirts...
Yay, FY is back! Something I can cheer about!
And Damon sucks.
Not how I like to see a game start.
Oh, shit. Oh, shit.
Why would you have an NYY t-shirt? NYM maybe.
Oh shit HH. Don't be hurt pls.
crap - not what we needed to start off the game.
oh fuck
I used to have a '21 Ways to Use "Fuck"' tee that I threatened to wear to school if my wife didn't give me my way in every little thing.
I would never have a NYY shirt. I was just commenting on how long I also hold on to t-shirts.
OK, two outs, no score.
Amy, that makes more sense. :)
I have tee shirts from races I ran in the late 70s. I can't fit into them, but I have them. Great rags.
Bobby Thomson died, and Lou Gehrig may not have had ALS.
Lots of baseball related news.
We use old t-shirts as rags, too.
But for whatever reason, my NYY shirts sit neatly folded at the bottom of my t-shirt drawer. It was many years, and many many good times. Can't just trash those.
That is better!!!
I heard about Bobby Thomson, but what is that about Gehrig? Are they saying they didn't know how to diagnose ALS in those days?
"Can't just trash those."
Just daub them down in trim blue.
I know I have a t-shirt from the early 90s of the Beatles and one from a restaurant in Provincetown that also has to be about 20 years old. And one from my alma mater that may be even older. I still wear all three.
I found the story on Gehrig.
You can wear a 20y/o t? That's impressive! I sure can't. I looked very different 20 years ago!
if we win tonight, laura has to keep wearing the shirt.
They are saying that many athletes that suffer several concussions have symptoms similar to ALS but that are not caused by ALS. They speculate that the same might have been true of Gehrig who suffered many concussions and continued to play after injury.
Like Jason Bay just did as well.
short hair on the bonger's brother
Gehrig: I sent JOS a link to a NYTimes article. Could possibly have been sequelae of many concussions rather than ALS, but no way of knowing now.
I thought the article as a whole made the implicit point that 'toughness' about sports injuries is probably a bad cultural hangover from some macho era.
WELCOME BACK PEDEY!!!!
These are VERY large t-shirts!! I bought them big enough to wear over bathing suits.
So good to see FY!
Concussions, like hockey playes and boxers do constantly.
Thanks for the info, Amy & John. I'll read the story soon.
Gehrig is my all-time favourite player. I like to read everything I can about him. Plus I know something about ALS from my disability work.
Already FY is getting feisty with the ump.
These are VERY large t-shirts!! I bought them big enough to wear over bathing suits.
Whew. :>)
I recently found (in a box of my "archives") a Rolling Stones t-shirt from my freshman year of college. I was amazed at how small it was. Tiny! And of course I thought I was fat.
Boxers often get Parkinson's-like symptoms. I wonder if this is a similar thing.
Although he could have had ALS, right? I mean, whatever he had attacked his organs and killed him.
I wonder if Aybar will dance for us tonight.
Yes, they do not know for sure whether he had ALS or not. Apparently he was cremated so there is no way to find out even if they were to disinter him.
Tiny! And of course I thought I was fat.
Uch, our sick crazy world. I also thought I was fat as a teenager, and when I look at photos now, I am just bewildered. How could I have thought I was fat then?
Amy, yes indeed. I have the same reaction when I see pictures of my young self. That distored self-image that so many of us have/had is what prompted me to research and write about eating disorders.
Great off-topic stuff today. :)
anyone notice how victor was half-jogging on that grounder? time for chb to get to work ...
OMFG HE DID NOT DO THAT!
yes he did that
Sad thing is that despite all the awareness and attempts to overcome those body image issues, adolescent and adults (mostly women, but more and more for men as well) still suffer from the "Do I look fat?" issue.
HOLY SHIT...He caught that???
I hate when my daughters talk about looking or feeling fat. We did our damnedest to counter that stuff, but to no avail.
Hmm. Jared Weaver said what I said.
Bonger Jr says read my lips!
Amy, it may not be to no avail. You weren't the only influence, so it still happened - but had you and Harvey been different, it could have been much much worse.
Hey s1c!
True. We are fortunate that they are not overly obsessed. They both eat pretty normally also.
Fortunately, not a problem we have had with B-fly, of course I'm always telling her she needs to eat more.
s1c! How are you? Long time, no see.
that catch reminds me that i do not like terrence long
Hey - finally have a chance to sit and chat. Been spending most of summer, watching the games with B-fly and chatting about this and that. She's off to the movies tonight though, so a little chat and watching games!!!
Eating normally, that's a big thing. It's amazing how many women (and increasingly men/boys) don't. People a long way from full-blown ED but still with a lot of body image/eating issues. It's SO common.
I was like that myself for a long time. I traded it in for being heavier and happier.
s1c, I was thinking of Bfly, because she's a dancer, right? That's a risk.
So nice you're spending time together over the games.
I also thought of Terrence Long.
When does B-fly go back to school? Is she looking forward to it?
Laura, I still have some of those body image issues. But I find I prefer to eat!
Alan Schwarz is also writing about the Gehrig/ALS news.
One of the German girls I was riding with in Iceland talked and talked at meals about why she wasn't hungry, finally take a bite or two and then disappear for 10 or 15 minutes. Her mother was apparently unconcerned.
Yes she is a dancer, she's a very picky eater. She eats right but I'm always telling her she needs to eat more because she is so active.
Yep, most of the time we are up stairs in the no computer zone (the L.R.) just watching the games and doing the crossword puzzles that she brings home from lunch.
That's where I first read about the ALS news. Then saw a news report on TV before switching to the game.
Those issues are very persistent - and reinforced constantly by the fucked up world we live in. I worked really hard to get rid of them as much as possible. But I was miserable and messed up, I needed to change.
So now I like to eat. Eating is good!
DET - 10

Amy she goes back Friday the 27th (early since she is part of a campus group that helps get the school ready and moves in the freshmen).
Yes she is looking forward to it. She likes her roomie and her bedroom will overlook the hudson.
One of the German girls I was riding with in Iceland talked and talked at meals about why she wasn't hungry, finally take a bite or two and then disappear for 10 or 15 minutes. Her mother was apparently unconcerned.
Ugh.
The girls I interviewed - all of whom almost died - had families in complete denial.
When I started college back 40 years ago, there was a girl in our dorm who ate nothing but lettuce. We just thought she was strange. Back then, no one had heard of anorexia. (Maybe doctors had, but not ordinary people.) When that girl left half way through the year, we all wondered why and felt badly for thinking she was odd and never reaching out to her. I still feel badly about it. I think kids today would at least recognize that something was seriously wrong.
Sounds good, s1c! A room overlooking the Hudson---nice!!
nice perfect game jered has going.
Amy, if it's any comfort, even if you had known or suspected, as people would today, there would have been nothing you could do about it. Nothing. Outsiders cannot induce or motivate people with EDs to get help. It's like any other addiction. Intervention often only drives them further into the behaviour.
Try and catch THAT one!
MICROWAVE off the JOS jinx!
Microwave Baby!!!
She loves Marist. I just wish she would party a little.
YEAH BABY!!!
Microwave breaks a window!
A glass-shattering dong!
Did you see everyone around the car trying to figure out how to get the ball?
True, but we could have notified the health services staff or a dean. I have no idea what happened to her, but she went a whole semester eating nothing but iceberg lettuce.
And I do forgive myself. I was only 18 and pretty self-absorbed, like most people that age.
Time to call Giant Glass!!!
I'm glad you have forgiven yourself. I don't know what a dean or student health services could have done, either. That's what's so heartbreaking and frustrating. It either comes for within, or it doesn't come at all.
Careful what you wish for, S1C!
They could have called her parents and had her taken out of school to get care that might have helped her get to the point of helping herself.
LOL - I know Amy, it's just I keep on reminding her that College isn't just books and exams, it is time to make lifetime friends and oh, yeah, let your hair down at times.
All I can say is, having studied this a lot, interviewed more than a few experts, enough to write a book about it, is that it highly unlikely - next to impossible - you and fellow students could have done anything that would have helped.
Heh, I am feeling much better. I just googled her name (which I never forgot). She is an anesthesiologist in NYC!
She is an anesthesiologist in NYC!
Which of course doesn't mean she doesn't still have an ED.
If my brother was here, he'd tell you about all the anesthesiologists who are addicts. Of course, what would my brother be doing on a gamethread, I have no idea.
Well, I am just glad she is alive.
By the way, my brother (who would also not be caught dead on a game thread) is a pediatric anesthesiologist.
Uh-Oh I hope everyone is OK
And I'm sure he's not a drug addict. :)
My brother likes to talk about drugs and drug users, so he may be exaggerating. But supposedly there is a high incidence of anesthesiologists using their own stuff.
Just catching up with the thread. Interesting off topic. Amy, we do work hard as parents to counter the "skinny" culture. I, too, am fortunate that my daughter doesn't stress over it. She gained a few pounds this summer eating pasta in Italy, but it hasn't bothered her or changed her eating habits.
L, that had to be hard research to do. It is such an unforgiving disorder.
I have some t-shirts from over 30 years ago. I just wore one the other day. Yes, it's a little tight.
Nah, not my brother.
Is your brother a doctor? Or does he treat addicts?
I'm sure that Giant Glass is already on the way there
30 year old t-shirts! I don't think I can make that claim. :)
Papi!
much improved AB for tiz.
well thirty years ago I had a 29 inch waist then I joined the navy and put on 40 pounds. Can still get into my Navy stuff though after 23 years.
30 years, that IS impressive!
It was great research, but I got too emotionally involved with the girls and there were also editorial problems. It was very tough. But great experience and I can hope I contributed something somewhere.
My brother is an oral surgeon, he does facial reconstruction, working on a team with an ears/nose/throat doc and a plastic surgeon. Cleft palates, facial deformities, gunshots to the face, car accidents. And also less exciting stuff like wisdom teeth.
In his younger days he enjoyed drugs quite a bit (like his younger sister) and he still enjoys helping people with his access to pain meds.
29 inch waist--you needed those 40 pounds!
s1c, I agree about college life. It is such a fun time and yes, you do make life long friends. My husband just turned 50. He didn't want a party, he just wanted his college buddies (who are my best friends too) to come for the weekend. It was great. Our friends from Michigan even made it.
I am very glad my daughter is having fun at college. Now, if she would just study maybe a little more?
That sounds like very rewarding work.
My brother did Operation Smile many years ago, going to Vietnam and other Asian countries to operate on children with cleft palates (he obviously was doing the anesthesia work, not the surgery).
I am sure my brother also had his wilder days, but not as a doctor. Too much at stake to risk getting caught.
Sounds like MrsG's daughter and S1C's daughter should meet in the middle!
I found my daughters both had much more fun after their first year. So watch out, S1C!
Oh cool, my brother is an Op Smile mainstay. He's gone all over the world with them, several continents. He also works with another similar groups. It lets him travel to places my sister-in-law doesn't really want to go. (He's a travel nut like me.) But he loves the surgery work too.
would love to see a solid base hit here with 2 outs.
It sounds like heart-breaking work, Laura, especially given that you found that nothing really can help, no one can really help, the kids suffering from ED. Of course, your job was not to help, but nevertheless it must just be heart-breaking.
Grand Slam - YEAH BABY!!!
KALISH GRAND DONG!
Actually she is doing just fine. I think she has found a very good balance. It was just funny the other day when her younger brother, who will be off to college next year, asked her how much work college really was. Her response? Well, if I would just do about two hours of work a week, I'd be better off at exam time. Two hours a week? I thought she was going to say two hours a day!
KALISH GRANNY!!!! Get outtta town!!!
OMG!!! GRAND DONG!!!
The girls I interviewed were all healthy and in recovery - or else they would never have spoken to me about their feelings. So in that respect it was very rewarding, as they were all survivors who wanted to reach out and help others.
HOLY SHIT RYAN KALISH GRAND SLAM!!!!!!
GRAND SLAM
enjoy the view, torii?
ULTRA DONG!!!
Another two out rally. Maybe they are back with FY.
I love beating Weavers.
Maybe your brother and my brother crossed paths at some point. My brother found the experience so rewarding. He is also a travel nut. Now he mostly travels to conferences to give papers. He also does lots of travel on his own. I get the vicarious pleasure. He has been to so many amazing places that I know I will never see.
The grades have never been the problem with her. I think this year though she will do a little of the party stuff. Last year she didn't really get along with her room mates, but this year she was able to pick her group and they all have similar interests. Also her hardest class this coming semester is her computer class.
TWO hours a WEEK? Is she kidding? I hope so...
Wouldn't it be funny if our brothers had worked together?
My brother's travel drives me nuts with envy. But he travels very differently than me - skims the surface, very fast.
He also teaches once a week at NY Presby, hands-on stuff, he loves it.
I asked her if she was kidding. She said pretty much, no. She is at a hard school, too. Maybe being a Philosophy/Business major makes for less work. She says her bio/chem major friends have a lot more work to do.
Well, your brother's name (assuming the same as yours) is more unusual than my brother's, so I will ask him of he ever met a Kaminker!
Operation Smile must be a great way to spend time. Again, it could be heartbreaking, though. I admire people who give of their time and comfort in such ways. Very neat that both of your brothers do/did this.
Wow, two hours a week. Perhaps that explains why so many law students these days find it so hard to adjust to the work load in law school. We tell them to expect to work at least 30-40 hours a week outside of class time.
Actually, I think Operation Smile has mostly happy results so it is not heart-breaking at all.
Law school, ugh. I remember those days with my husband (then boyfriend). His first year of law school was my senior year of college. Needless to say, that didn't mesh too well. Looking back on it, I wasn't too sympathetic.
But, I do remember typing his briefs for him (yes, on a typewriter!!).
I'm sure the rewards are great with the patients. I just mean being in places where so many people are needy and only being able to help a few.
Happy outcomes - but for people who depend on charity for health care. Who often don't have access to clean water, adequate nutrition, etc. It is very sobering, I think - englarges one's worldview.
MrsG and L---yeah, you are right. I was thinking too narrowly.
First year of law school---definitely one of the most unhappy of times. So stressful and so little feedback.
Yes, our last names are the same, so definitely ask him. I imagine my brother knows quite a few Cohens!
It's Marty Kaminker, oral surgeon from NJ.
People offer to pay in chickens and donkeys.
My brother also likes it because he gets to do new surgeries that he's not licensed for in the US. MASH-style!
I will definitely ask him. He has an excellent memory so chances are if he met him, he would remember.
heidi's report a not-so-subtle new balance commercial.
That would be hilarious, wouldn't it?
So you think FY is running full force? Or was that throw really that good?
Oh I think there was plenty of feedback his first year. He still remembers what professors had to say to some of those first years (including him). I think something along the lines of..."You, a first year law student, has the audacity to question a judge's decision?" Of course, this was after asking for comments on the case.
I would say that was not subtle at all. So I blocked it out as a commercial. :)
PAPI AGAIN!
Don, you can't ride a 8-game hitting streak. It's too small to ride.
Half dong is nice!
Been watching this one - LOL to the homer through the car window, and FUCKIN EH KALISH!!!!!!!! (delayed)
mmmm, loving the way papi is going oppo.
good times to the opposite field!!!
That throw was very good.
LOL, MrsG! Not exactly the kind of feedback most students are looking for!
My friend who is a prosecutor in L.A. *loved* law school. But she went as an adult for a second career. She's the only person I know who liked law school.
BLUE LIGHT DOUBLE!!!!!!
VMART!
I like this game.
Half dongs all around!
Well, my son is in Boston this week at Berklee College's summer guitar session. He's thinking he can get to Fenway on Thursday.
I am finding this out before he leaves next year: boys don't call home as often as girls! They need to find a happy medium.
Double, double. Way to go guys. Weaver is getting hit hard!!
2 bases for 1 hit @ the v-mart.
I actually know quite a few who liked law school. Hopefully even some of my students.
But most people...not so much. I sure did not.
Ooh, I think he was out. I think the tag was still on when he lifted his hand off the bag.
I fucking HATE that life insurance commercial that comes with doubles. HAAAATE.
Tim, what are you brining to wmtc5?
I'm in that stage where I'm having minor waking nightmares that no one brings any food and there is nothing to eat.
(No rational reason for that, of course. Last year, first time it was a potluck, we had TONS of great food, huge variety, everyone was so generous. But still... it is a little scary!)
We were thinking crab dip, but may also bring another salad or something...I was actually going to ask you about it, cause no point in bringing the crab dip if no one likes seafood!
MrsG, VMart?
MGR: i thought that too.
Well, just so you know. No eating disorder here. I am headed to the kitchen to fix a hot fudge sundae.
Better than my nightmares about this accounting exam I have nightly now, where I forget to bring my computer.
why are swinging at that worm killer, beltre?
Well, A & I love seafood, I'm sure some other people do, too.
I'm not even gonna get involved in this discussion tonight, missed the boat from the start.
I'll just drink my cheap canadian beer (cheap for canada) and enjoy this game.
MrsG, good for you, enjoy!! :)
Tim, when is the exam?
MrsG's dessert reminds me we have yummy vanilla frozen yogurt and local blueberries in the fridge. One more inning.
Tim, is this about an exam you will be taking or one you have already taken?
I had dreams like that for years and years after finishing school. Not about computers though. Just that I had an exam for a course I never remembered registering for. I still have them every once in a while, but not as regularly as I once did.
I already had dessert. Now you are making me wish for more ice cream. But if I eat it this late, I will regret it at bedtime.
Tim, we did our LCBO/Beer Store run today. You might want Stephanie to drive home. :)
Sept 14-16, its the big final one and a lot different/more difficult than the one i had in june.
Alright, definitely will do the crab dip, its delicious, and still might do one other thing, since there is two of us.
Too bad dogs can't eat everything, otherwise I would've brought a doggy dish too!
Are you bringing Winston?
Sept 14-16, its the big final one and a lot different/more difficult than the one i had in june.
OUCH
haha amy! i've never had one before this exam coming up. need a computer to write it though, so i guess it'd be like forgetting your calculator for a calculus exam or something?
as for the booze, we'll just get winston to drive.
Poor Youk.
Ok, that answers my question! Winston is driving! :)
texas and detroit both proving to be useless tonight.
Calculus exam? Calculator? I wouldn't know! I did take it in high school, but we did not have calculators back then. Yeah, yeah, the dark ages. We used something called a sliderule??? I think?
It was not my best subject, regardless of the tools available.
ok, im done with analogies for the night! wtf is a sliderule???
Amy, I was going to ask Tim the same question. It's probably been five years or so since I've had the "OMG I have an exam in that class? I've never been to that class!!" nightmare.
Good luck Tim. Is this for licensure?
Isn't Winston just a puppy? Isn't he too young to drive? Or does Canada have a very young driving age?
"wtf is a sliderule"
:>)
I have seen one but never used it. Never took calculus, I am not ashamed to say!
It'd be so sweet to do a month-long baseball road trip
Slide rule
Oh yeah, wouldn't that be great. Jetblue from Buffalo to everywhere they are playing.
^ NOT advertising, just a cool thing i saw.
*secretly plotting to bring little jetblue souvenirs to distribute at the party*
I guess we used them in trig, not calculus.
Calculus is a complete blur. 20 boys, 3 girls. I had no clue what was going on when they got to those backward E's.
I gotta take a thread break. TTYL :)
yup, mrs. g - chartered accounting license, same as the CPA down in the states.
that device is outrageous. computers are so great.
Heh, was reading the thread about "EDs" and for some reason I was assuming erectile dysfunction instead of eating disorders. It sure did make Laura's and Amy's posts more interesting.
Time to listen to the game in the car on the way home - it's my son's 4th birthday.
Well, good luck. I imagine you'll be prepared and do fine.
C'mon HH, get out of this.
hey, happy birthday little wcs! sharing a bday with pedey, cool.
yes clay, whew.
Happy birthday to your son, WCS!
LOL about the ED confusion!!
Used the slide rule primarily in Physics class - Had a pocket circular one - was great. B-fly's senior year in high school her physics teacher had a six foot tall one in the class. Had a lot of fun with it on parents night.
anyone use protractors these days?
Protractors! And compasses (the ones to draw a circle, not the ones to find North)! You are making me nostalgic.
Happy Birthday little one.
Yes RS, I use a protractor just about every day. There is one assessment that I give that requires kids to copy figures. I have to measure some of the angles to make sure they meet criteria.
I always loved protractors.
What do you do, MrsG? Sounds interesting. Are you assessing kids for disabilities? Abilities?
sorry allan, i don't own a farm.
