MLB Network 30/30: Sox featured tonight

Featured Replies

Thought there might be some comments warranting a thread; it will surely be re-broadcast over the next few days as well...

 

Looking forward to some MLB network love!

It's also on at midnight and 10 am tomorrow.

Last but certainly not least...

the Padres?

sweet! Thanks for the reminder! I'm definitely gonna have to tune on. :headbang:

how was this? can I get a recap?

i never get tired of hearing the absolute disappointment in Chris Berman's voice when El Duque got Damon to strike out for the 3rd out with bases juiced.

 

For me, still one of the greatest moments in Sox history.

ROFL at Ozzie about having a fake birth certificate. hilarious

So, the top ten highlights that they made didn't have the Konerko Grand Slam in game 2 of the World Series, or the Pods walk-off. I think either one of those was a bit more important then Carlton Fisk hitting a home run in his debut.

Don't forgot the Graffy error followed by the Iguchi home run.

 

he wasn't even TRYING to hold back his bias

I agree - that was amazing.

I think they wanted to get some older highlights so it didn't seem like the team has only existed since 2005.

Definitely felt the love from Plesac and Williams, who were genuinely behind at least a few reasons why this team is ready to compete. Naturally I am biased, but having watched several of the 30/30 shows, they seemed pretty bullish on our Sox:

--Dynamic starting 5 that should be among the best in the AL

--Pretty stocked bullpen with Putz and Thornton possessing closer stuff, although most likely unnecessary with a healthy Jenks

--a Balanced offense will make up for a seeming lack of power

 

Other highlights:

--Beckham's incredibly smooth 2 step dance in the footwork drill (gives the mancrush an uncomfortable new dimension?)

--Kotsay's sly behind the back catch, knowing the camera was on him

--Pierre's interview (he may be frustrating at times this year, but that certainly humanized him a bit for me)

 

Plesac used to work for CSN Chicago doing Cubs studio work; he's familiar with Hawk in that way.

Can't believe that there was no highlight of the 1983 AL West Clincher in the Prime 9.

I found a lot of the Prime 9 picks and the order strange, Fisk's debut over Buehrle's perfect game..........Oh well, it is a good show though.

So Matt Thornton added a cutter? Has this been known?

Moment #2 was flat out wrong. It should have been Podsednik.

I did not really agree with the order. 93 Bo was bigger than 83 as far as a moment goes but 83 team won by almost 20 games that was impressive and should have been noted.

 

I thought 2005 as a whole would have been a good moment the El Duque thing was big but they all should have been one great moment with either 83 or 93 replacing the El Duque one and then they should have been reordered. The Thomas HR thing was a little off and not a fan of the Banies HR but I think those were great player moments.

 

Glad they left off 1919.

 

I gotta say sometimes I forget how big a part of this organization Hawk Harrelson is.......I like that.

I agree with you, AJ's drop 3rd strike was not the #2 moment in Sox history...having that as #2 is just pathetic.

I can see that whole game making the list though. When I look back at my fondest memories, that inning ranks pretty high up there.
