White Sox at Rays - 3:07PM
M. Buehrle v. S. Kazmir
Rays lead series 1-0
South Side Sox
DRays Bay
Most of AN is pulling for the Rays in the race; and despite its lousy TV schedule, I think Game One yesterday was far and away the most interesting of the playoffs so far. Between Longoria's rookie postseason performance and Balfour's amazing back-to-back strikeouts, highlighted by ordering O-Cab back to the dugout after answering his challenge, that game kept me entertained from first to last pitch. I look for more of the same today, but any way the Rays want to win is fine by me. Lineups have just been posted; looks like Pena is back and will be starting at first, and there is a reported Swisher sighting.
Red Sox at Angels - 6:37PM
D. Matsuzaka v. E. Santana
Red Sox lead series 1-0
Over the Monster
Halos Heaven
If you aren't a fan of the Angels (and hello, this is AN!), the only way Game One could have been more satisfying would have been to see K-rod giving up a slam to lose the game. But errors in the field and on the bases are almost just as fun, as the Angels are poised to lose their eleventh straight post-season game against the Red Sox, and ninth overall. With a straight series loss, I think we may be able to shed the "Choke-land" moniker over at Halos Heaven; at least we won a lot of playoff games before losing the clinchers. But there is a long way to go; I would say that the despite how good Dice-K has been this year, the pitching matchup favors Santana and the Angels tonight. They are a good team; and they haven't owned the Red Sox this year only to be dispatched so easily in the playoffs...have they?
Almost all of AN in agreement now: GO RAYS GO!

Well, the bad news is I lost my job today.
My former employer lost a major contract and, well, I had the least seniority. I’m not that upset… the meds I’m on ROCK, btw.
The good news is I can now watch the playoffs all day and not worry about my productivity at work.

Isn't it really weird watching a team like the Rays
And when they’re down two runs, it’s conceivable and almost likely that they will come back, because their offense doesn’t consist of Jack Hannahan and you know… Bobby Crosby, Cliff Pennington, Eric Patterson, Matt Murton, Daric Barton.
Maybe it’s just me.

This costume party commercial (for Captain Morgan I think)
reminds me of Swish and Cupcakes—plug and socket. Heh heh.

Good battle.
I forgot how much of a submariner Chad is. Scraping knuckles, etc.

I like Rocco Baldelli.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.

Do you think that if Carlos Quentin hadn’t broken his hand, the White Sox might actually be dominating right now?

No
One guy isn’t enough. Rays have too much going for them right now.

Whoa, weird play.
He was completely out, too.

wohhhh
DUDE. that was the WORST call ever

The catwalk obviously.
Trying to see if it was interfering in any way.
by thesteve9x on Oct 3, 2008 6:14 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
WOW
He hit him so hard on the back with that. Clearly Aybar nailed him.

Bad call.
Very bad call. Dye is going to have leather marks from where he was hit with the glove.

Oh Harold
stop making excuses for that horrible call.

Dye is really slow.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.

hm admittedly,
from that angle in real time it is a bit more difficult. all about the angle on that one

Nice DP!
Konerko must be really slow too.
by whiteshoes40 on Oct 3, 2008 6:16 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Dye, Konerko, and Thome
must be the slowest guys in the league right now.

If I'm ever able to afford new glasses,
I’m getting glasses just like Joe Maddon’s.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.

Those are sexy.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.

Joe Maddon's
yes they are. You’re still a nerd. :)

Oh, way to slip in the 03 reference.
Thanks TBS.
by thesteve9x on Oct 3, 2008 6:18 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
yeah, I caught that too
and started brooding on it…
by OaklandSi on Oct 3, 2008 6:18 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Wooo!
Okay, I’m glad the Rays are up 2-0, but now with 3 of the series at 2-0, we’re getting about 76 mentions per hour of the ’03 ALDS. Brutal.

Now it's time to watch the Angels FAIL! Yeah

Does anyone else think
A Phillies/Dodgers NLCS sounds boring? But I’m biased and like the AL much better.

uh-oh!
Cialis commercial! Competition!
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.

But no catchy song.
Thank goodness.
