Roid Boy grounds out to first baseman Paul Konerko.

Top 2ND B:0 S:1 O:0 Jermaine Dye singles on a ground ball to shortstop Derek Jeter. Top 2ND B:1 S:1 O:1 Geoff Blum flies out to left fielder Hideki Matsui. Top 2ND B:2 S:0 O:2 Chris Widger pops out to catcher John Flaherty in foul territory. Top 2ND B:2 S:3 O:3 Juan Uribe strikes out swingin

Only 1 run in the first is not bad for Freddy. Now he needs to kick it in gear the rest of the way.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:19 AM) (Unless the ball is at Jeeters head) You mean Sheffield.

Still no 2 out clutch hit.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:11 AM) Let's go Freddy. By the way, did you see the quote from an unamed Sox player calling A-Rod's play on Monday night "bush"? I'm so glad that plunked that tool. That unnamed player was Konerko.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 09:11 AM) Pods, LF Ozuna, 2B Everett, DH Konerko, 1B Rowand, CF Dye, RF Blum, 3B Widger, C Uribe, SS Garcia, RHP No Gooch? Interesting.... In any case, nice to see Carl back in the lineup.

QUOTE(GASHWOUND @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 10:30 PM) Jeez, Moron of the morons.. Well, he is in New York. Couldn't expect anything less. :headshake

f*** You Royals!!

KONERKO IGUCHI CONTRERAS BLUM - NICE GRAB This is only the regular season and my nerves can't take this. I don't know how I can handle the post-season!!! Magic # 38, soon to be 37

Top 2ND B:3 S:2 O:1 Paul Konerko pops out to second baseman Robinson Cano. Top 2ND B:1 S:2 O:3 Jermaine Dye pops out to pitcher Shawn Chacon. Top 3RD B:2 S:0 O:1 Aaron Rowand pops out to first baseman Tino Martinez. Top 3RD B:2 S:2 O:2 Joe Crede pops out to catcher Jorge Posada in foul territory. Juan Uribe pops out to ....

Womack grounds out. End of the inning.

They must be using the Joe Crede 2004 Special Edition Bats for today's game, with all the pop-ups.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 05:34 PM) Nope, they will rule its unintentional. But if Jose even farts the wrong way he will be rung. Atkins will be in this game. I agree. They'll say Chacon lost his grip or something.

6 pickoff attempts so far. Some close calls. Pods better stay put.

All right, Scott. How about we steal a base this time.

YES is right. It's the exact same lineups from last night.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 11:52 AM) Neither of those teams needs a bat. They are both fairly desperate for pitching...both starting and relief for the Yankees and relief in particular for the BoSox. If it's someone who'd obviously fill a need for either team they might grab them, but in a lot of cases, there's no good reason for them to make a pickup. You know the Red Sox are in need of serious bullpen help when they pick up Mike Remlinger. Hitting is the least of their worries, anyway. Now back to the Game Thread..... I was very surprised w/how El Duque pitched last night. Considering how that 1st inning went. If not for Aaron, it could have been a lot worse. If Contreras gives up 3 runs or less, the Sox will be in good shape.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 11:42 AM) That's f***ing horses***. Now I really hope we hit one of their players...and hard. It would've been sweet for Jenks to throw some heat at Arod's melon yesterday. f***ing Yankee fan. :finger I actually was hoping for Jenks to drill Sheffield. I hate that jag more than anyone on the Yanks.

Relief Pitchers who have won the Cy Young: AL: 1992 Dennis Eckersley Oakland 1984 Willie Hernandez Detroit 1981 Rollie Fingers Milwaukee NL: 2003 Eric Gagne Los Angeles 1989 Mark Davis San Diego 1987 Steve Bedrosian Philadelphia 1979 Bruce Sutter Chicago 1974 Mike Marshall Los Angeles

I'm sure he'll be back. At least I hope so. Going to a new station, rated #1 in the AL among radio broadcasters. It would make sense. Then again, money talks.

It is the smart way to go. Needing 52 HRs for 500, and with his foot/ankle a question mark the rest of the way, he would need at least 2 or maybe even 3 seasons to accomplish it. I don't think the Sox would commit to him for that long. The way his #'s stand he a 1st balloter right now anyway.

27 pitches through 1 inning for El Puque.

walk him, too. Just put him on.

Adkins in the bullpen? Please.
