Game Thirty Six: Creeping Death

Until this losing crap is over with, we get Metallica song titles for blog posts.

Last night, in the Emerald City of Seattle, Boston climbed out to a 4-0 lead off of the immortal Chris Jauskasbauhausdailykosloslonelyboysosjosbaus (that may not be the real spelling).

Then, (say it with me, everybody) this guy who used to be Jon Lester gave up two home runs to Ichiro (?!?!?) (doubling his season total), one each in the fifth and sixth. Now comfortably behind again, Boston put the bats away, getting only one MORE BLEEDING hit the rest of the way.

Tonight, Boston, as if there is any point to it, sends out a guy who used to be Josh Beckett to face another of the immortals, swingman Garrett Olson of Seattle. Olson last started May 6 against Kansas City, only going 5 innings, and has an 0-4 record against Boston in his career, with an ERA that approaches a maximum SAT verbal score.

Of course, the way we're going, he'll throw a 5 hitter.

Sigh.

Here's the Baddest Band In The Land, bringing the exhausted, sweaty, furious noise at Woodstock '99.

  2. How would you like to be the guy or gal who has to sew the name Jakubauskas on the back of that guys uniform. I guess it's better than having to sew Saltalamacchia.

  3. Oh, indeed. Thats a uniform mistake anyone could excuse.

    You could go with the old school box score version: "Jaub's'k's"
