Nice. Clement did well (6-6-3-2-5); Gonzalez, Youkilis, Ortiz and Ramirez all homered; and Varitek had three hits. ... Plus Baltimore beat the Yankees 11-4, so we're back atop the East with four big games in the Bronx -- starting tomorrow.

I'm off at a wedding in Geneva, New York today, so you're on your own.
Please be nice to Matt Clement and hope that Zach Miner (making his major league debut) doesn't pitch as well as Cy Bonderman. About pitching to Manny and Papi, Miner says "I've gotten them out on video games. Hopefully, it'll transfer over."
The fun -- after which the regular season is exactly one-third complete -- starts at 1 PM.
Enjoy Switzerland!
ReplyDeleteSo the wedding party will be convening in Geneva?
ReplyDeleteWho's tied for #3 in HRs on the Sox?
ReplyDeleteYOOOUK!
Clement = solid? It's the West Coast, so the game started in the AM and I kind of slept in...or am I still dreaming?
Of course, I have spoken too soon before.
While you're in Geneva, just remember that you only have to give your name, rank, and serial number.
ReplyDeleteNot dreaming, Zenslinger, but typically Clement, it was a good news-bad news: he pitched well enough to win but left the game suddenly with an unspecified ailment.
I've *been* to Geneva, New York. There's a dive bar called "Pinky's" there with 2 dollar bottles of PBR...just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason the reception was not at Pinky's. ... Bourgeois mf-ers had it at some joint called Belhurst Castle.
ReplyDeleteThe PBR might be $2 a bottle, but the New York State cabernet was free.
