On baseball

It doesn't always have to be Ortiz, Pedroia, Youkilis, Bay, or Drew. During the course of 162 games, it can also be someone named Van Every. And last night it was. (Boston Globe)
Baseball Heads View: this is the 2nd game in a week where the sox were down and almost out. They trailed the yankees at fenway on Saturday 6-0 and were down after a poor start by Lester last night 5-0. The plucked away and tied things up - went to extras. BUT - it would never happen without the best bull pen in baseball. Great work boyz. Keep on rockin.

Sox & Yanks - No Pitcher's Duel Today!














Saturday (April 25) - I attended my 4th Red Sox home game of 2009. It seemed as though I was attended a pitching duel between Josh Beckett 7 AJ Burnett at the old ball yahd. Well -- I was wrong. The Yanks took an early 6-0 lead, but thanks to some great sox hitting 7 the Grand Slam by Jason VTeck the Sox tied it up and went on to a 16-11 old barn burner win.
The Red Sox won their 9th game as their prime rivals look like a team in shambles. Sans - AROID - the Yanks lineup is disjointed and leaderless. Te bull pen is a joke. It looked like the old Yawkey league - Chelsea National Team that won only one game in their cup of coffee in the league a few years back.
It is a long year and the Yanks will come around, but until ARoid returns and they get HELP in the pen!

We were treated during a 12:35PM start of the double header to a Tim Wakefield masterpiece and a 10-1 Sox victory. here are some of the pics I took. CLICK on the PIC for a larger image.

I AM WICKED PISSED AT THE RED SOX!

I am PISSED off at the Sox! You are our man on the inside and I hope you can make these facts clear.

The fweather in Boston was awful today. The Twins game that was delayed and not called off until 8:15PM should have been PPD at noon.

This is school vacations week. Families are being blocked out of Fenway by HUGE ticket prices and HUGE scalping on the streets and internet. I spoke to many fathers who were irate that they were forced to go to Fenway and wait for a game that was never going to be played. they paid for parking - food and memorabilia.

Many have to work at NOON today. Thus, they and their kids lose the opportunity to be a part of the Fenway Experience. FOR THEIR ONLY TIME in 2009.

Shame on The Red Sox. Money is the root of all evil and the Sox have been forced to forget their fans and care more about the almighty buck.

I attended 10 Spring Training games at City of Palms Park in March. I hold tickets for 21 Sox games in top priced seats for this season.

I defend the Sox and promote them every day on my Blog in my person and on TV. BUT - not tonight! Shame on the TRIO. They need to be more sensative to FANS not MONEY!
