Boston fell again in the Juice Box, dropping a 6-2 decision in Tampa tonight. The big blow was a grand slam by the Desperate Third Baseman off of Bat Masterson, but it's not like the rest of the offense covered itself in garlands-lots of LOB. Double Sigh.
Boston faces these Naughty Fish again tomorrow.
Red Sox Nation turns its lonely eyes to you, Tim Wakefield.
I thought Bat looked great for the first 4 innings, but he started to elevate his pitches in the 5th....never a good idea against the Desperate third baseman (I really like that nickname) and Carlos "Boom Boom" Pena.
ReplyDeleteOn a side note......You think the Halos have a regret or 2 about not trying to re-sign K-Rod. I could have told them that Brian Fuentes was going to suck. But, they didn't ask. And you know what they say.......Don't ask, don't tell.
Sorry I missed the game today... I'll have to tune in and send my good vibes tomorrow. :<
ReplyDeleteKRod has always seemed to me an elbow operation waiting to happen. That being said, yeah, I'm sure they miss him.
ReplyDeleteThen again, we owned him, so maybe not so much.
The Fuentes thing is so true. It's like the Phillies with Chan Ho Park-they were expecting someone other than Chan Ho Park to show up when they signed Chan Ho Park?
I really think the DTB name is mine, originally. I have never seen anyone else use it before.
