Ok so I cheated. Besides, maybe breaking a law might help towards mojo.

[luso2kx]

Man law states NO GAME THREAD until day of game!!!!
Ah! But wait, I just forgot one thing. I DID post it on the day of the game.

I posted it at 8:35pm Eastern. Which is 12:35am Azorean time. Herego, I was already on July 2nd when I posted it.

Man law intact :)

[DarrylStingley]

I was at Fenway on Sunday. The place was dead. Time for a win and an offensive explosion. Please.

[oldskool138]

Uggghh! Juil-0-for is leading off...:mad: :blink:

[southcarolina]

Lugo walks. Something positive. Build on it Julio.

[southcarolina]

Stupid double plays.

[SamBam39]

This is real tiresome!

[southcarolina]

Im eating a cucumber

[SamBam39]

So once again the genius that is Terry Francona benches Youkilis in favor of a .203 hitter and leads off with Mr Juli-0-for June!!!

[southcarolina]

I think they said Kyook had a quad problem.

[southcarolina]

And, who was he supposed too use as the lead off batter? Ellsbury and his 3 major league at bats? And besides, Lugo did his job...he walked.

[SamBam39]

Yup!!! They are very consistent!!!!

[southcarolina]

Gabbard looks like a major league pitcher tonight.

[SamBam39]

And, who was he supposed too use as the lead off batter? Ellsbury and his 3 major league at bats? And besides, Lugo did his job...he walked.
No he was supposed to wish and hope and pray that a guy struggling with a horrific 0 for will suddenly come out of it and jump start an offense that is sluggish!! Make a wish before you blow out the candles Terry!!!:icon_hang

[SamBam39]

Gabbard throwing strikes staying within himself. So far so good!!!

[southcarolina]

No he was supposed to wish and hope and pray that a guy struggling with a horrific 0 for will suddenly come out of it and jump start an offense that is sluggish!! Make a wish before you blow out the candles Terry!!!:icon_hang

Sooooo......he should have used WHO as the leadoff hitter then?

[luso2kx]

So, where is the "Gabbard is worthless" talk from his last start?

I said every rookie lays an egg, and Gabbard was better than his last start. He's proving it tonight.

[SamBam39]

Sooooo......he should have used WHO as the leadoff hitter then?
He's batted Pedroia in that spot, Drew in that spot!!! They are both in the line up tonight.

[southcarolina]

Eric Hinske, table setter.

Cmon rook.

[SamBam39]

Hey a hit!!!! Do you believe in miracles?

[southcarolina]

Games not over yet :)

[SamBam39]

[southcarolina]

Attabot rook. Cmon Lugo.

[SamBam39]

Speed kills!!!! Rook gets on base!!!!

[southcarolina]

Attaboy Lugo. Cmon DP.

[luso2kx]

Don't you think it is a bit pre mature? ;)
He's already gone 3 scoreless AND hitless.

Statistically, he's already better than his last start :)

[SamBam39]

A positive! He can bunt better than Covelli!!!

[SamBam39]

He's already gone 3 scoreless AND hitless.

Statistically, he's already better than his last start :)You do have a point there!!:icon_supe

I do notice that you waited until Gabbard was past his third good inning before you came in here singing his praises. Where was your confindense in this years ROY?


:)

[southcarolina]

Attaboy DP!!!! Cmon DO. Keep it going.

[SamBam39]

Nice production!!!! DP with the double! 2-0

[SamBam39]

Let's go Tizzle. Your turn!!!

[luso2kx]

GODROIA could've turned 3 in that one had the knucklehead fan not touched it.

[southcarolina]

Stupid shift. Cmon Manny. Do it.

[SamBam39]

Not what I hoped for!!! Maybe Manny can plate DP!!

[SamBam39]

Yup. Just like they planned it!!!

[southcarolina]

Attaboy Manny!!! Cmon JD Drew. Keep it going

[luso2kx]

That didn't miss by that much. Maybe 3 feet.

[southcarolina]

Holy crap...that was my Aunt!!!!


Damn you Sox Appeal!!!!!!

[southcarolina]

Attaboy JD. Cmon Mike Lowell. Baserunners are good.

[southcarolina]

F*ck you Marlon Byrd.

[SamBam39]

Nancy with the walk!!!

[SamBam39]

At least it is a crooked number!!!

[luso2kx]

Marlon Byrd must die. This guy is like what Incaviglia and Balboni were: guys who weren't that good but always were a pain in the ass against the Sox.

[southcarolina]

Haha my dad just called...from about 20-25 rows behind first base in fenway. I heard the crowd roar about 5 seconds before i saw the caught stealing.

[EverettsTheoryOfEvolution]

Hey, check out Vtek with some arm down to 2nd!

[southcarolina]

Hey, check out Vtek with some arm down to 2nd!


Did the runner trip or something because it didnt even look close.

[luso2kx]

For those keeping score:

That's 4 hitless innings for Gabbo :)

[SamBam39]

Let's see if they can add to this!!!

[southcarolina]

For those keeping score:

Same time, I think Godsbury saw those 2 beauties and decided to get the F out of Dodge :)

[luso2kx]

Squibbler through short. Ah well.

[SamBam39]

Ah d@mn it!!!

[SamBam39]

Luso....you were saying!!!

[SamBam39]

When Gabbard loses it he loses it quickly. They should take him out.

[luso2kx]

5ip 3er

So, tell me how Tavarez is better...

[SamBam39]

Good save to get out of it!!!

[SamBam39]

Let's go Nancy!!!

[SamBam39]

[SamBam39]

[SamBam39]

[SamBam39]

Do they really need Okajima here?

[Mikiemo83]

I wonder just how much Papi's hammies are bothering him?
if it is he should offer his all-star spot to Youk

[SamBam39]

DIRTY WATER!!!!

[SamBam39]

if it is he should offer his all-star spot to Youk
Agreed. Heard he isn't going to participate in the HR contest. He should stay home!!!

[Redsoxfan57]

Hinske with the 3 bagger!!!! 6-3

Isn't that a thing of beauty. My boy gets a triple and gets three runs across the plate. Today is officially declared as no bagging on Hinske Day by RedsoxFan 57 after tonights performance:icon_supe .

Hinske is a stud. A better 4th OF you couldn't wish for. He's the new Kapler, and I hope he sticks around for awhile.

[Redsoxfan57]

Couldn't agree more with you ETOE. :) I hope that Francona keeps giving him those valuable opportunities and I hope that Hinske keeps the fire to play all out like he has been. Time will definitely tell if Hinske is the second coming of Kapler or not. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he will prove to be just as good or better.:icon_supe
