DeMichele and Hawkins K in their first AB's.

First AB"s off lefty Gilmartin Mitchell--single up the middle Sanchez- K Morel- ground out, fielder's choice Danks -single

Feel good about the Sox holding the Royals to 5 runs in a series, and then see them put up a 10 spot on the Phillies.

http://www.milb.com/scoreboard/index.jsp?s...mp;ymd=20130405 OD Lineups: Charlotte- Mitchell, Sanchez, Morel, Danks, Greene, Phegley, Loman, Tolleson, Durango Winston-Salem- Rice, DeMichele, Hawkins, Smith, Tracy, Haddow, Buckner, Curley, Herbek

Nick Giarraputo was released. I think he was originally going to W-S. Maybe this makes room for Eric Grabe?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 03:51 PM) ok let me get this straight. You hope the Nationals, an NL team, lose a game this weekend before they play the Sox out of fear that they'll become a national (ala the Heat winning streak?) story and the Sox, I guess, get overwhelmed and not be able to handle the pressure? #WhatThef***??? I don't want the Nationals to be 6-0 when the Sox play them on Tuesday. So sue me. Things bother you too much.

Pedro Hernandez will start for the Twins on Sunday. That's how bad the Twins are.

I got one that I thought of with the homerun the other day that Alex Gordon almost caught. When the ball is in the stands in foul territory, a fan can interfere with it because that's their domain. Does the same hold true for homeruns? Could a guy in the Sox bullpen actually interfere as long as the ball is already past the fence line? I can't imagine it's allowed, but how is it any different than a fan interfering if the ball is past the plane of the fence?

First game of a series rubber match. Go Jose.

QUOTE (baseball17 @ Apr 5, 2013 -> 12:42 PM) Leesman's ETA for Charlotte is May 1st. Was hitting 92 on the radar yesterday. Good to hear.

Indians lose. Sox have the best record in the AL (tied with 5). Nationals only team in baseball 3-0. They go to Cincinnati. Hopefully they lose this weekend before they play the Sox. I don't want them to become a story at 7-0, 8-0, etc.

Crazy Jays -Indians game. Lots of action. Indians with over 20 base runners, and may lose. If they come back to win, they'll be the only undefeated AL team, unless Mo blows a save here.

QUOTE (Cali @ Apr 4, 2013 -> 08:23 PM) Buehrle getting rocked by the Indians... don't miss that. Also he looked more "round" than usual. Maybe hit the Tim Horton's too much already... I noticed that during spring training. When you're carrying extra weight in baseball, you better be good. Buehrle looks like if he just gave up, he could be 300 pounds within a year.

Saladino grand slam.

Trayce Thompson homer.

Not a good Toronto debut for Buehrle against Cleveland. That Indians offense is going to be pretty good.

Mariners better not load the bases this weekend.

2 out of 3 this weekend followed by a 5-5 road trip and 6-4 homestand would be a good April. Need to play better defense and manufacture runs when given the opportunities.

"Tip your Cap" Alert. Robin just said it twice about Guthrie. I hate that.

If De Aza hits a bomb here, a lot of you...

Stone hasn't got the memo about Gillaspie. It's pronounced Gillespie.

Royals are in that category that if you don't have a lead after 7 innings, it probably isn't your day.
