I'm officially gonna be sad if we deal Luke.

BTW...this is from the Sox live blog on NESN

End 1st, Orioles 1-0: The Orioles keep the good times rolling, with Brian Roberts leading off with a walk, stealing second and scoring on Felix Pie’s single to left. But the Red Sox got a fairly big break when Pie tried stretching a double and was thrown out … or was he? On the replay, Pedroia can be seen taking the ball into his bare hand as he reached down to make the tag, swiping Pie’s leg with an empty glove. But only Don Orsillo noticed it –after looking at a replay — so Pedroia got away with it.

When you're thrown out by 5-10 feet, that's usually a good indicator.

He wasn't out by 5-10 feet. He was safe. Poor call. The guy has to make a good throw to get you. If he does you are out. If he makes a throw like Bay did you are safe.

You are right about Markakis. That double last night is what he does best when he is seeing the ball and putting good swings on it.

I also think Scott is about to go on another tear. He has been scuffling recently but those doubles last night were smoked off of good lefties.

Please allow me to toot my own horn. Toot toot. Thank you.

This is Major League Baseball. The fact that Pedroia made a bonehead play doesn't change the fact that it was a bad decision.

Another reason to hate Pedroia...because he is a filty, rotten cheater!

Another classic from the morons over as SOSH:

Can somebody please hit Luke Scott.

THROW INSIDE.

He was in under the tag regardless of whether or not he had the ball. Are you watching the game?

[Skeletor]

Luke's infamous cold streaks are getting shorter.

[lovetoaster]

Did Beckett stare down Scott??

I am wondering about this too...they mentioned it on the radio for a sec.

Yes. Pedroia screwed up. It doesn't mean it was a good play. If you think that was a smart move, we will just have to disagree.

[Mooreisbetter27]

Did.. he catch that?

[Skeletor]

Nolan stays with it and makes a good play.

[lovetoaster]

Gold Glove Reimold.

[mrbig1]

Nolan for ROY.
