[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Friday evening, 5 PM. Tina says:


http://redsoxchick.mlblogs.com/red_sox_chick/images/tinasept272006.jpgWhat's that smell?


Hazel says:
http://callofthegreenmonster.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/hm.jpgI don't know, Tina, I don't smell anything.


But Tina insists:
http://redsoxchick.mlblogs.com/red_sox_chick/images/tinasept272006.jpgNo, seriously, it smells....rancid!


Hazel thinks about it and replies:
http://callofthegreenmonster.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/hm.jpgWell, I don't know,Tina, I can't match you schnozz for schnozz, but, now that you mention it, something does smell off.

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

http://i.a.cnn.net/si/images/baseball/mlb/players/4906.jpg Tim Wakefield sits in the corner, trying not to be noticed.

But it's too late
http://yourphotos.boston.com/images/photos/1/2006/04/17/thumbnail/28844.jpg Tina saw him...


....and then she put 2 and 2 together....

That horrible essence which so offended her nasal cavity was none other than the infamous "floater"
http://www.rivingtonarms.com/rarms/artists/john_finneran/images/UntitledBlackCloud.jpg <-------Tim's floater

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Now, while the floater may present significant problems for Miss Tina Cervasio, it signals great things for Red Sox Nation. Minnesota's sluggers may think they are good. They think Wakefield is an old man, and no match for them. But all their bravado will do them no good tonight, as they stand at the plate, helplessly whiffing at farts.

Go Tim, and GO SOX!






Note: This maximum of 4 images per post is quite a drag. Can we get that changed UT?

[southcarolina]

Nice.

I dont have any kids games tonight, for the first time all week, and i dont have to work. So i should be here for the duration tonight.

[Fully Tilted]

Classic.


Ok, here's one of the rare nights when I don't cringe at all watching Wake pitch. Indoors.

Over the last three seasons (04-06) his numbers in a dome are as follows:

10G / 6W / 2L / 3.51ERA / 66.2IP / 41K / 8HR / .227AVG

In the Metordome:

2G / 1W / 1L / 3.21ERA / 14IP / 15K / 1HR / .255AVG


He's notoriously a better pitcher indoors because he can better control the uncontrollable pitch.

GO SOX!!!

[soxin07080910]

go sox tonight

[SamBam39]

Alex back in the line up. Jul-E-o is too. :( Hope he hits because if he doesn't he is a huge liability. Thank you Theo. Cap'n gets a much needed breather with Wakes pitching. Hope Manny is out of his funk and continues to tear up the ball.

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

I'm looking forward to seeing Manny play. This is how he started last season, too, barely keeping his head above water in April, then proceeding to tear it up once he got going.

[southcarolina]

Im thinking of running to the store to get some beer. Ive been trying new kinds lately. Any suggestions? Ive tried Newcastle Brown Ale and Killians Red recently, and liked both ok.

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

As I always do, I'll recommend Widmer Hefeweizen. Fat tyre, too, if they carry it in your area, I don't know how far afield it can be found.

[southcarolina]

Hmmm i dont know if ive ever heard of those.

[SamBam39]

What kind of beer do you like?

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

http://beeradvocate.com/im/articles/684-1.jpg http://www.corbinstreehouse.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/fat_tire_IMG_1189-tm.jpg

[southcarolina]

What kind of beer do you like?

Well mostly i drink cheap stuff like Icehouse. My sister got me hooked on Yuengling Black and Tan, and so recently i have been trying to expand my horizons. I do not like light beer.

[SamBam39]

The Fat Tire that ETOE is talking about is good. If you like the black and Tan try an ale or an IPA (India Pale Ale). There are lots of good brands. You could stay with a New England theme and go with Sam Adams or Harpoon. Arrogant Bastard brewery makes a good beer. Dog Fishhead has an excellent product. Try their 60 minute IPA it's great!

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Well, SC? What did you end up getting?

[#1Patsfan_chica]

Go Sox!!!

[oldskool138]

The Sox are hitting the ball hard...If they were playing outside, the Sox would have been up 2-0.

Still a good sign!

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Good Patience, Papi, make him work. Manny's hot right now, let's make him pay!

[SamBam39]

What's Wake doing hitting somebody?

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Crap! They must be letting Tavarez talk to Wakes on the bench.

[oldskool138]

Good job by Lowell. :rolleyes:

There's no way that thing was going foul.

Luckily nothing bad comes out of it.

[SamBam39]

Nice start for Wakes

[southcarolina]

Back from the store. I ended up buying a 12 pack of JW Dundee's Honey Brown Ale. Ive had it before, but it was on sale for 8.99 a 12 pack, so i couldnt pass it up :)

[southcarolina]

Safe.

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Nice, good price for a dozen.

Now, tell Drew and Manny not to swing at the first pitch, please.

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Jeezus H. Let's make this guy's job easy for him, why don't we?

[SamBam39]

that was quick!

[oldskool138]

LOL! That was a make-up call! Nice pick by Youk!

[SamBam39]

Come on Wakie

[SamBam39]

Need a big play here

[SamBam39]

No way Jul-E-o made a play!!!!!

[oldskool138]

Bad decision by the third base coach. Dougie cut down at the plate... :mad:

[Mark_Henderson]

The main reason not to send Mirabelli on that play is that he's one of the slowest running people in professional sports.

[SamBam39]

How the heck is Belli going home on that?

[SamBam39]

Man on third 1 out and they blow that and score nothing oh boy another one of those nights

[oldskool138]

Wa-K-efield!

Gets Morneau!

[oldskool138]

How the heck is Belli going home on that?

Demarlo Hale told him to go on contact...What are you going to do?

[SamBam39]

Come on Papi!!!!

[SamBam39]

Demarlo Hale told him to go on contact...What are you going to do?Nothing just complain ;)

[SamBam39]

Come on Manny. Be Manny!

[SamBam39]

Maybe a 2 out rally?

[oldskool138]

Wa-KK-efield!

1-2-3 inning. Let's score some runs!

[SamBam39]

This game is going fast. Guess that happens when you can't hit the ball!

[oldskool138]

Alex SCORE-A!!! 3-bagger!

Why is 'Droia playing again?

[SamBam39]

Nice hit by Cora.S-cora!!!!

[SamBam39]

Come on Jul-E-o

[SamBam39]

Another wasted opportunity!!!

[oldskool138]

WOW! Yankees getting spanked by the M's 14-8! :icon_fU:

[oldskool138]

[SamBam39]

And manny with the double lets get another run!!!

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Awesome, Manuel is HOT!

[southcarolina]

OK im back again. had a couple of things to take care of.

[oldskool138]

So, what did I miss? Papi homer? Awesome!

Yeah, he C-R-U-S-H-E-D it. Nice to see him get some revenge on his old team. One of the biggest mistakes in Twins history!

[SamBam39]

Get him home gray man.

[southcarolina]

Dammit how many defensive plays are they gonna make

[oldskool138]

Dammit how many defensive plays are they gonna make

Yeah, if they were playing at Fenway this would be a one-sided blow-out.

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Dammit how many defensive plays are they gonna make


If I was a bettin' man, I'd say 27.:icon_eyes

[soxin07080910]

ortiz is starting to get his bat again

[SamBam39]

Well at least they got one!

[southcarolina]

Holy shit Mirribelli threw someone out

[SamBam39]

Belli

[SamBam39]

Hunter must have tripped and fell down!!

[SamBam39]

Covelli can't buy a hit tonight11

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Cora flashing that hot bat!

Edit: and his .387 average!

[oldskool138]

Alex Score-a is a double and HR away from the cycle.

Dustin who?

[southcarolina]

Pedroia would have stretched that into a double.

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Pfft! Way to follow that act, Lugo!

[SamBam39]

Let's go Wakes!

[SamBam39]

Pfft! Way to follow that act, Lugo!Sox got him for his glove not his bat!!!!:blink:

[oldskool138]

Yikes! BP Romero is up in the 'pen.

Man, they should get George Romero to pitch for them :icon_eyes

[Mikiemo83]

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

I think Dice-K and BP Romero have somehow swapped brains or soemthing

[SamBam39]

Come on you got to get out of this inning!

[oldskool138]

Is JC Romero the new set up guy?

Oki is getting 2 nights off. Paps is available tonight. Oki available tomorrow...I guess.

[SamBam39]

BP Romero out. Fighting Donnelly in!!!

[oldskool138]

Here comes the Fighting Donnelly against Torii! Buckle up!

EDIT: One pitch one out...That was easy. :)

[#1Patsfan_chica]

One pitch, one out for Donelly.

[SamBam39]

Nice 1 pitch 3rd out and on to the top of the 9th

[oldskool138]

Great JD Flu is up...:icon_eyes

EDIT: He must feel better! Lead off 3-bagger for JD!!!

[Mikiemo83]

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Drew with the triple! Fantastic. Get a run or two across and let Donnely finish it off.

[oldskool138]

Drew with the triple! Fantastic. Get a run or two across and let Donnely finish it off.

A win for Wake and a save for Paps.

[SamBam39]

WATAH!!!!!!!

[oldskool138]

Game Over! My boy Wake shut the Twins out through 7. Bullpen came through again. Bats were okay...

EToE puts his record on the line with a Tavarez/ Santana match up. Good luck :rolleyes:

[SamBam39]

Nice game all around!!!!

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

...and that's ballgame. Always feels good to win a close one like that after a game like yesterday's. Wouldn't complain if the offense got hot for a stretch tho.

[SamBam39]
