"Sweep the leg (and series), Jose-y."

a sweep would definately make the start to the second half great and only being a half game out would be nice too go sox!

Pods7, Missile6, JD9, Thome dh, PK 3, Getz 4, Beckham 5, Wise 8, Castro 2. Contreras pitching. There is nothing Dewayne Wise can do that will lose him his spot in this lineup.

Quentin can't get here soon enough.

He'll probably wind up platooning with Wise anyway.

No offense to Getz, but why the hell is Beckham (a big-time RBI producer) after Getz? JD/Thome/Konerko have been on base a lot recently, so why not let your better RBI producer protect them.

Because everytime Getz gets on base, which has been a lot lately, Beckham drives him in. Those two have been on automatic for about 3 weeks

Great duo, they can almost pass for brothers

Brian Roberts just owns the Sox. Jose doesn't match up well against this Orioles lineup and 6 lefties.

Damnit, AJ. At least make a decent throw.

Stolen base and error on the throw into CF. Pretty weak effort by Getz in knocking that ball down.

It's Castro.

Huge out. Markakis kills us, nice play by Beckham too.

It's Castro.

Damnit, Castro!

We manufactured a run, however for the wrong team.

 

 

wild pitch scores the run. Just an awful effort by our defense so far, as Castro should have easily knocked that down. If you call a forkball with a runner on 3rd, you need to block that.

Bad inning by Castro.

I wonder if we'll call up CQ for tomorrow's game and let him DH against David Price?

Getz sucks in the field.

Totally agree, I'd give his defense a C- so far. He's also the worst 2nd baseman I've seen in a long time at anything involving turning a double play.
