Red Sox, Indians. Why? It's OcTOOOOber!!!
· 7:10 – Ebay – shop “VICTORIOUSLY.” Is Dane Cook writing adds for them.
· 7 :11 – Top 1st Inning
• 7:13 – The Home Plate umpire will be determining balls and strikes. Thanks for the information Joe. I would not have known that.
· 7:14 – Lethal low-ball hitter. Excellent alliteration. Tim.
· 7:18 – Bottom 1st Inning
· 7:19 – Matsuzaka looks like he lost about 15l lbs since his last start.
· 7:21 – He also seems to have morphed into a dominating pitcher.
• 7:22 – QuesTech was implemented in 2003. One would assume that it is no longer radically affecting how umpires call the game. It is also in Fenway Park as well. Why are you bringing this up?
· 7:27 – Top 2nd Inning
• 7:30 – A useful comment would be that Manny adjusted after the first pitch and looked like he was seeing the ball well off Westbrook. This may come into play later. • 7:31 – Could have mentioned how Red Sox fans are not exactly mad at Drew right now because he had a great September. But, of course, that would actually involve watching baseball and doing homework. And, it is not like you get paid to do that or anything.
· 7:34 – Kenny Lofton looks like Kenny Lofton’s grandfather.
· 7:35 – The error still would have put runners on 2nd and 3rd with one out.
· 7:36 – Bases loaded with no one out. Runs produced zero. Awful.
• 7:38 – Does Dane Cook now have mini-dreadlocks? Also, since he has lost weight you can see his neck tendons bulge when he strains to do his extreme OcTOOOber voices. (courtesy of girlfriend)
· 7:39 – Bottom 2nd Inning
· 7:40 – I know have to reassess my sense of humor if Tim McCarver finds Curb Your Enthusiasm funny as well.
• 7:43 – Black face is an abomination but it is socially acceptable for white men to paint themselves red and wear headdresses? Good thing our forefathers had the forsight not to name a team the Negroes.
· 7:46 – Grandpa just hit a homerun 2-0 Cleveland. That curtain call is going to come back to bite him in the ass.
· 7:48 – Nixon looks about 20lbs lighter. He must’ve been “hitting the treadmill.”
· 7:49 – They already broke out the “Cleveland Rocks.”
· 7:51 – Top 3rd Inning
· 7:57 – Bottom 3rd Inning
· 7:59 – At least Royce Clayton has a bit more personality than Paul f---ing Byrd.
· 8:04 – The homerun ruined Dice K’s confidence. Look forward to a night of nibbling.
· 8:09 – And taking forever between pitches
· 8:13 – Top 4th Inning
• 8:16 – You could provide some analysis about why Manny Ramirez is so good with 2 strikes. His patience? His great eye? No, just let it stand and let people draw their own conclusions. It’s not like you are getting paid for this or anything. • 8:17 – “It’s a bad base-running play. Ortiz had nowhere to go there.” Good contradiction. No need to resolve that one, Timmy.
· 8:23 – Jason Varitek is 1-11. That’s great. Except it was J.D. Drew batting
'
· 8:26 – Bottom 4th Inning
· 8:29 – Another brilliant pitching coach interview. Please keep these going.
· 8:35 – Top 5th Inning
· 8:36 – Woah. The hitting coach. Changing it up on us.
• 8:37 – Five innings before a Grady Sizemore love fest? I’m sure Joe would love for him to have a “coming out party” on national television. Bah-zing! '
· 8:41 – Bottom 5th Inning
· 8:41 – Both times I have been to Jacobs Field, I have been able to walk up just before game time and buy a seat.
· 8:44 – Wow GMs retiring. Interesting.
· 8:54 – Cabrera singles in Blake. 3-0 Cleveland
· 8:56 – Hafner grounds into fielder’s choice. 4-0 Cleveland.
· 8:58 – So, Francona is paying attention and doing his job. Why is that note worthy?
'
· 8:58 – Matsuzaka leaves game. Mike Timlin to pitch.
· 9:04 – JUST GET OUT OF THIS INNING
· 9:06 – Cleveland Rocks #2
· 9:08 – Top 6th Inning
• 9:09 – It might be time to shuffle the lineup and move Pedroia down. He looks like a lost little boy every time he steps up to bat.
· 9:12 – F--- you! I don’t want to hear your shit anymore! (Girlfriend to McCarver)
• 9:14 – I think that when you are the best hitter in baseball discussion, you probably don’t get the take sign on 3-0. Contrary to McCarver wisdom, being down 4-2 is better than being down 4-0. They are more likely to tie the game by scoring runs than by having enough base-runners to get there in one fell swoop.
· 9:23 – Bottom 6th Inning
• 9:28 – Can we stop this running 3 games rest convorsation until one of the managers actually announces that they will start someone on three days rest. A hypothetical should not provide 3 games worth of filler.
· 9:31 – Top 7th Inning
· 9:35 – About F---ing time! Jason Varitek 2 run HR 4-2 Cleveland.
• 9:37 – Still talking about the damn three days rest argument. Beckett is not starting tomorrow. He’s not starting. Just shut up! He’s not starting. Just because it would be better for ratings to have Beckett does not mean it is going to happen.
· 9:39 – “Meanwhile, in this game” – My sentiments exactly.
· 9:39 – The top pitch velocity for two guys who are not really fastball pitchers. Thanks for the enlightening info.
· 9:41 – Borowski is coming up in the 9th. Borowski is coming up in the 9th.
· 9:42 – Westbrook leaves the game. Lewis pitching
· 9:54 – “Global Swarming” ba-boom tish
· 9:55 – Bottom 7th Inning
· 9:55 – Timlin leaves game. Okajima in.
· 10:04 – Top 8th Inning
• 10:09 – Does Betancourt have a pencil thin line halfway down his ear that passes for a sideburn? Or, did he miss a spot shaving?
· 10:16 – Joe Borowski is pitching in the 9th. Joe Borowski is pitching in the 9th.
· 10:17 – Bottom 8th Inning
· 10:20 – Okajima leaves game. Manny Delcarmen in.
· 10:23 – Yes, that is a knee. Thank you WebMD.
· 10:30 – Top of the 9th – Borowski In
· 10:30 – Borowski is like Todd Jones. There is no logical explanation for him being the closer. He just is.
· 10:38 – F---!
