High pitch count or not, John did a really good job today.

Come on Joe, make it hurt.

IF single for Jim Thome to break up the no hitter. LOL

Jered Weaver no hitter through 4.2

Some crazy tornado footage on CNN

Oh my.

PABLOWNED

QUOTE (ROC Sox Fan @ May 24, 2008 -> 03:42 PM) Hawk joined them in the booth? No, they just started on a maple bat diatribe.

Danks just seems smart out there.

Oh dear God, Hawk got to the play by play guys.

Nice job Swish. Just go deep or something, Brian.

Come on Dirty 30

Nice job Johnny!!! Seems like he can reach back and put a little bit more on that fastball when he needs it.

Ok, Carlos. We like you. Do good stuff.

Yay for leadoff walks.

Oh my, Danks made that look EASY. 3 piddly groundouts.

Danks appears to have a little extra giddyup in the fastball today.

I hope Swish does our lineup again. Something tells me he's got something good for BA when he introduces him. Danks, too.

Is Speier high?

Angels starting lineup = 8 SB Orlando Cabrera = 7 SB Pierzynski + Thome + Quentin + Swisher = 7 SB

Let's see the Sox score 12 runs today.

I think this is the first time I've gotten to see Danksy actually pitch this year. I'm looking forward to it.

Despite his BA being 90 points lower, his OPS is still just 60 points lower. And I'm willing to bet there's a better chance of Nick improving substantially on his numbers than Ryan. In 42 games, Ryan has 13 walks. In 47 games, Nick has 32 walks. Swish is going to be fine.
