Red Sox - 001 001 001 - 3 10 1Terry Francona wears the goat's horns for this loss, as he dozed while Lackey slowly fell apart in the seventh. By the time Daniel Bard had thrown even a handful of warm-up pitches, Lackey (7-6-3-0-6, 111) had allowed a double, two singles, and two runs.

Then Boston's ninth-inning rally against Andrew Bailey -- a couple of two-out doubles from Victor Martinez and Adrian Beltre -- was aborted when home plate umpire Mike Winters called David Ortiz out on pitch #9 to end the game.
Brooks has similar information. It should have been ball 4, putting two men on for Jed Lowrie.The Rangers beat the Yankees 7-6 when Mariano Rivera hit Jeff Francoeur with the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth. Fruitbat came into the game with the Yankees up 6-5: BB, 1B, 2B (6-6), BBI, P3, HBP. The Rays beat the Blue Jays 13-1 this afternoon.
Anderson has had a very good year -- 2.97 ERA in 14 starts -- despite missing most of May, June and July with elbow tendinitis. Ummm, I guess that means he's had a good April and August!Scutaro,SS2B

About a week ago, in his look at Boston's Top 25 prospects (end of 2010 edition), Jimmy at The House That Dewey Built referred to the Red Sox as a team that "continues to twitch and convulse like a car-struck deer begging to be put out of its misery".
That is pretty accurate. Things look horrific for awhile, but ... wait ... now the deer is up and walking (sort of) .... oh, shit, he fell down again and coughed up some blood. Looks like the end. But, maybe ... look! ... nope ...
AL East:

1974 - The Cardinals beat the Mets 4-3 in 25 innings at Shea Stadium. The Mets have 103 plate appearances, the only time in the 20th century a team had 100+ PA. St. Louis has 99 in this game. The game lasts 7:04 and ends at 3:13 AM.

changes from the lineup posted at extra bases. (no idea if the original post was wrong or there were actual changes.)
scutaro ss to 2b
lowrie 2b to ss
victor dh to 1b
lowell 1b to dh
don says the switch was made a few minutes before the game
loaded with one out
Thinking about the upcoming 7th inning strech muting moment made me wonder out of morbid curiosity what if anything when on at that time in the Jays game.
Id be surprised if GBA was played in Toronto.
bah.
sox strand a pair and a half.
I saw Rickey Henderson Thursday, coaching 1st base for Sacramento.
The grandparent CM for an SCM is the CCM.
goooonnneeeee!!!!
Marco has left the building.
Uch, that sounds dreadful. Mind-numbing.
OK, I am too tired to watch baseball. Enjoy the game...and the proofing.
hexayowsa.
Note that a NOMAR is a child of the RAMON ...
I think I spend too much time on facebook. my first inclination was to "like" your Nomar comment. Now I actually have to say, "I like your Nomar comment."
Oh jeez the silly hats again.
lackey looking good -- so far....

kalish with the baltimore dong.
I'm not loving the hats, for sure. Maybe instead of the sexist bullshit of referring to the pink hat fans, we can mock the jingoistic white hatters.
hustles to 3rd!
Hermida with the .264 OBP.
lackey still not shitty!
16 BF in 5 innings, 70 pitches
close! I demand no squander.
KALISH!
one more notch and another stranded pair.
If a lead-off double falls on NESN, does anyone see it?
still 2-2 in texas, rain delay in bot 5th
Is this guy 90 years old or something?
I didn't see it.
Red Sox with AL-best* 100 road dongs.
Suck on that, Blue Jays!!
(*: MLB-best?)
get farrell on that phone, tito.
god fuckin dammit -- PEN!
before lackey allows 4 runs.
don: "no action in the sox pen, as lackey nears 100 pitches"
bard up, finally.
oh jesus fucking christ - who COULD NOT HAVE SEEN THIS with the leadoff double?
fuck me.
Is it that Lackey can't hold leads of that manager's don't take him out in time?
fuckin four-chin wearing excuse maker.
tito boffed the boxer in this inning, for sure.
okay, 2 outs, david dong will = the 4 runs i feared. .. maybe lackey will get an out
fastball right down the pipe.
"that wasn't really a triple"
Maybe instead of the sexist bullshit of referring to the pink hat fans, we can mock the jingoistic white hatters.
I like this.
Just got home from work, not really threading.
Allan, not a good idea to put that patent stuff in comments. Srsly. That's a good thing to avoid.
Yeah. Deleted a few comments.
If I ever see this Frankie Caterro -- or whoever he is, this "two minute drill" dickface on mlbtv -- I'm gonna kick his fuckin head in.
Deleted a few comments.
Good idear.
That now makes sense as to why things weren't making sense, but sounds like deleting was a good idea.
fuckin' a's.
loaded for cust - not good.
dp pls
did he even tag him? looked like he missed his helmet?
looked to me like he missed, but I need glasses.
4 walks for the bard. fark.
I was feeling good with this game through two, maybe three innings.
and on that replay, remy of course said the tag was before his hand got in.
seems like the usual "i'll say what i was going to say even though the replay is showing the exact opposite or at least something inconclusive" trick.
OK, 4-run top of the 9th. Go!
top of the order in the 9th, with tiz and drew available.
i figured i'd ask for 2.
I will certainly accept 2.
Victor on 2nd, Beltre at the plate. ... We need Victor to rub that head! Do it!
oh, belTRE, please. Let me see Papi bat.
whooop! I want some fatherly love!
time to bedazzle these mofos.
c'mon 30-90.
2 to get loose
1 to produce
balls.
... as in ball 4.
fuckin ump.
Fail.
fuck knob.
Three 1-0 games today.
MFYs lose on a Fruitbat HBP. At least we have that.
