vs. RED SOX 5/04

[The Rick]

I think we're agreeing that it was an honest mistake, no? Just didn't see him.

That's certainly what it looked like to me.

Thats what I thought. Head down and unaware.

Davey Johnson says hello.

Johnny Oates was one of my personal favs as well.

He was a great manager too, but he was handed some pretty amazing players to work with too Wire to wire baby!

That looked like a pretty bad strike call to Markakis, but pitch fx on MLB Gameday thinks it was a strike too, so I guess I wont't get too worked up.

I don't understand the Tejada signing at all, but it doesn't really hurt us either, so meh... whatever.

I'm sure it's probably a skinny deal. I doubt they make a move on the 25-man to accomodate but you never know.

Very strange strike zone by this ump.

[LA2]

Wow, they actually did sign Miggy up. Palmer talking about Reynolds spelling out the letters of Miggy's name as he rounds the bases.

I just got in. I saw a thread on the main board saying that our defense is playing like total s***, and that he (the OP) hopes we can straighten it out, and that we always seems to "tighten' up" when we play at Fenway.

I was hoping that we weren't down by 4 or 5 runs. I was surprised (and thrilled) that it's a tie game.

Are we playing that badly on defense so far in this game ??? Thanks.

Good inning.

I agree but good managers typically have good players to work with. I can't even figure out how to make jet fuel from peanut oil.

I can't really complain about that half-inning too much. We (well, Reynolds) tied the score, and we made Jon Lester labor a little bit -- at least, he labored a lot more than he had in the previous two innings. Overall that's about as successful of a third inning as you can ask for, short of scoring some tack-on runs.

Three errors and a passed ball in two innings? You decide.
