GOOD WORK JUAN! C'Mon Pods, let's make this 3/3. If nothing else, just make Wells work...I want a shot at that Boston Bullpen.

Just remember everyone...Boston is the best offense in baseball, they're going to score runs. We're the best pitching in baseball...we just have to hope we can contain them.

Ground out to Iguchi, inning over. Ramirez doesn't drive in the guy from 2nd. Historic day.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 05:08 PM) Burly doesn't like Boston. Or Oakland. I think this inning is punishment for your spelling of his name. I blame you!

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 05:07 PM) These Red Sox hitters have a fantastic approach against Buehrle. How many guys do these hitters have a bad approach against?

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 05:07 PM) I dislike that guy a ton. I like him plenty...I just despise it when my team has to face him.

4-2.

Uh-oh, I don't like 2nd and 3rd with this guy coming up. Eek.

Farmer's score update is about 2 innigns behind, he just told us how the Devil Rays and Indians are tied 3-3.

Another lineout to pods, 2 down.

1 down. Line out to Podsednik.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 04:59 PM) No leadoff walks! Leadoff base hit.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 04:58 PM) Red Sox hitters are stepping out on Buehrle an awful lot, maybe he needs to throw them a little chin music B) Of course they are...this is a team that likes to slow the game down almost as much as Oakland.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 04:55 PM) We didn't score that inning, but we worked Wells, having some solid ABs, and have his pitch count up to 57. At this rate, he'll be lucky to go 6, maybe even 5. Salivating over that Red Sox bullpen...3rd worst bulpen ERA in the big leagues....

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 04:52 PM) He was crushing that slow stuff a month ago. He's getting too far out in front, and even when he makes good contact, he has nothing behind his swing. I'd much rather have him hit a slump in August than in October

QUOTE(Stocking @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 04:49 PM) i believe those 5 runs are all unearned too Gameday shows 4 earned runs for Westbrook right now (now 6-3)

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 04:49 PM) Ugh, shut up Chris Berman. Actually I grabbed that one from Nancy Faust (she played the song when he hit one day and it just stuck)

5-3 Tampa Bay on a single by (Anything you) Cantu (I Cantu better)

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 04:46 PM) Here's a question I was thinking about today: How many times have one of the Sox outfielders thrown someone out at home this year? There's nothing that really comes to mind. Help? I can immediately think of one at Oakland earlier this year where we actually had a guy out at home but the ump called him safe.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 04:46 PM) Now 3-3, bases loaded, nobody out. Good inning Buerhle. Now 1 out, same situation.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 04:38 PM) Yep. We were wrong about that one. Note to self...whenever those 2 agree on something...immediately disagree.

There you go Mark, that's 4 runs for you...and hopefully more.

SOMETHING GOOD HAPPENED!!!

Anyone know how many pitches David Wells usuall throws per outing? Just wondering how long he'll be in for assuming he doesn't fall apart, since our guys tend to not be amazingly patient.

All right, I get back from a 2 hour bike ride, and as soon as I sit down to catch my breath, ARow triples in 2 runs, and then MB takes them down 1-2-3 in the first. That's how I like to see games start.
