justBLAZE Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 7, 2008 -> 07:13 PM) They're holding their own so far. Nice pitchers duel in the 8th at Fenway. I'm also watching the game, Manny broke a 0-0 tie in bottom 8th, bringing someone home on a single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Parkman Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I don't see any way the cockroaches win this game. They have the bottom of the order with suckage like Punto against Papelbon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, they got it done tonight, hopefully they keep it up. Just think of it as rooting against Minnesota. The opposing teams uniform doesn't matter.

whitesoxbrian Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) 7-5 Sawx in the 6th. Twins get bases loaded with an out in the 7th and don't score. 8-5 now. Varitek looped a single. Gardenhire got tossed. 1st and 3rd, 0 outs, for the BoSox. 9-5 now. And now it's 12-5 after a 3 run Pedroia double.

LittleHurt05 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I gotta say though, I've hated rooting for Manny, Youkilis and the Red Sox the last few days, and its gonna be nice to root against them again when they stop playing the Twins... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxbrian Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) QUOTE (lord chas @ Jul 9, 2008 -> 02:15 PM) bout time the twins go on a losing streak I'd love to see Detroit split the series with Minnesota coming up. They have a fairly easy month of August, though. They play Seattle 9 times, Oakland 7 times, KC 3 times, Cleveland 3 times, and the Yankees 3 times (in Minnesota). They also have a pretty easy month of September. Cleveland 3 times, Baltimore 3 times, Toronto 3 times, KC 6 times (all in Minnesota), and Detroit 3 times. At least we get to play them (unfortunately those 3 are in Minnesota) and at least they have to go to Tampa for 4.

Pants Rowland Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I was walking to lunch when it was 3-0 MN after 1. I was a little annoyed but wishfully thought this will end up being one of those weird getaway day games that end up 12-5 Boston. I guess I didn't quite hit the nail on the head, but I am thrilled so far nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxbrian Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 (edited) Twins have 1st and 2nd, 0 outs. Here they come... EDIT- But the Sawx turn the 'ol 6-4-5 DP on Casilla and then they got Morneau to ground out. *Wipes forehead* Edited July 9, 2008 by whitesoxbrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justBLAZE Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Kevin Cash homers in bottom 8th and Brandon Moss follows with a triple, still no out in bottom 8th. 15-5 Boston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
