September 8, 201015 yr Surprised no one has posted this yet. Ozzie must have been drowning his sorrows last night, because around 1am, he sent out a salvo of tweets, all of which contained a link to the ESPN page that shows the Sox with an 11% chance of making the playoffs. Can anyone translate the Spanish better than a web engine can?

September 8, 201015 yr Yeah, that Mayor thing was already posted, that was before the game. I was referring to his bizarre late night posts.

Even when guys get hit repeatedly and on purpose and Hawk is sitting up in the booth saying "it will be dealt with", like after the Delmon Young/AJ play, and perfect opportunities to plunk Young come up (early in the game, nobody on base), we don't do it. That's true. Just like when he says, "No matter what, we will not let [insert former Sox slugger or current HR leader here] beat us." We then proceed to pitch to said slugger with two on and first base open. More often than not, game over. And it doesn't even take courage to put a guy on. Just more brains than ego.

Wasn't Cabrera intentionally walked last night with one runner on and first base open? The game was over after that anyway.

And speaking of Delmon Young, if we are buried by game 3 of the Twinkies series, we should be headhunting early and often. And a bench clearing brawl might be in order. Other teams have hurt our chances by hitting our guys all season. I'd rather just win, but if we don't, payback time.
