    Just watching archive now.

    Theres no way he'd do it twice in a row. He couldn't be that thick. The commentator says its "clearly intentional" but c'mon. One behind the back would send whatever message you want. Why go straight back and mill him.

    Now my screensaver - the crowd's reaction, AJ's forlorn look, Doc's smirky stare, Wells' glance over at Doc (what's he thinking) and look at Scooter! Talk about a "f*** you, keep walking" glare! :D

    Love it...

    It does look like some (can't stress some enough :pac:) fans are applauding him.

    Strange, last year this was mainly a bosox forum + yankee fan.. this year I seem heavily outnumbered by Jays fans..

    Good thing I have a soft spot for Toronto (as a city) :P

    David Ortiz is really having one sick season. There I tempted fate, now let it rain!

    Nice throw to get Rios out trying to steal second, after getting on base with a slow-roller infield hit.

    Solid start by Wakefield.

    Yeah I hate watching Wakefield. Terrible awkward swings everywhere.

    Don Orsillo is the King of baseball commentators.

    EDIT: After Vin Scully obviously!

    Ended up being a real pitchers duel tonight, and Wakefield takes the win as the BoSox win 2-1. Papelbon goes 1-2-3 to get his eleventh save of the season.

    Yankees look to be continuing their streak as they hold a comfortable lead in the Bronx against the Orioles. Hopefully that will end tomorrow! I'd love to see both the Red Sox and the Blue Jays make the postseason this year.

    Another ugly game for Toronto. I would been happy to take one away from this series, so it'll have to be tonight. Things are getting awful tough at the top now. Hope they can keep rolling along, even though it looks like cracks are starting to appear :(

    Now now, don't jump off the bandwagon as quick as you got on :)

    All seriousness though if they're to stick it out they can't drop many more series to division rivals. Yanks and Sox won both series against them now.

    Come on Zuut, I thought better of you. :p It's just two games mate, at Fenway. Long ways to go yet. Tallet actually pitched well the other night, and it was close. Never judge your team on one performance against a knuckleballer! As for last night, Cecil was bound to slip up. As a rookie I'd say the pressure got to him, he's human. Not the end of the world, he'll bounce back. We still have tonight's game, and if we win, we take one off them on the road. Even if they sweep, we're still top of the division. We gotta hope that the first six weeks will be the norm going forward, and we'll take later series off the Yanks and Sox (especially at home). Wells has to start hitting soon, and with Janssen and Litsch (and possibly Romero) back shortly, we'll be alright. ;)

    OK, over-reaction maybe...but getting swept out of Fenway and being 1-5 vs Yankees and Sox wouldn't exactly bode well!
    Watching Wells has been horrible.....

    Rios has looked completely disinterested since day one - I hope he's traded. Terrible attitude imo. Pity the Lincecum/Rios trade wasn't pulled off by J.P. :(

    They've looked horrible the whole series. Hopefully it picks up against the Braves and the O's and we pay the Sox back at the Dome end of the month. :D
