O's at Sox 7/11

[MurphDogg]

Sherrill picks up the cheap save, we can all exhale.

[Scrat1]

Wow this team needed that.

[HeatherC12]

YES!! That's what needs to happen!! Flat breezy time and BOY did the O's need that one tonight!!

[El Gordo]

No flat breezy for Fahey, huh? I guess cause he screwed up?

[The Wedge]

I still would not have brought in Sherrill. Nice game overall though.

Most of us wouldn't. Not at that point, though. Maybe if JJ gives up a run or two. Not because Fahey has a brain fart.

Thank You My Beloved Os!:thumbsup1:

A 1-out save is just what the doctor ordered for Sherill, but he still made it interesting.

No doubt in my mind, he isn't our closer of the future... even if we don't trade him.

If Ray is healthy and effective next year, I'd like to see them try a co-closer approach. If the lineup has mostly lefties coming up, bring in Sherrill. Mostly righties, bring on Ray. Keep them fresh that way.

[The Wedge]

That final K couldn't happen to a better guy than Youkilis.

So, maybe we're not still doomed? ;-)

Oh, no, we're doomed.

[mdevito]

yeah, I'm with Tony. I really would have preferred to see Johnson finish there, but you knew as soon as it might be a save Sherril was coming in.

Nice overall win though.

[gallden]

It's punishment for blowing that easy play.

Yes, chastised.

I heart beating the Red Sox. I hope every phony, jerkneck, green shirt-wearing, pink-hat donning Sox fan in Maryland reads this and it makes you regret faking your lifelong allegiance to an out-of-town team. I'm looking at YOU! You know who you are!!!

Did you spit once you said that?
