Open Game Thread: BoSox vs. Angels - Game 4

Well, the Phils moved on past the Brewers earlier today on the back of our own Bazooka Joe, who piched a fantastic game for Philadelphia. The SOUTH siders lived to fight another day as they held off the Rays. Now, we're down to BoSox - Angels, Game 4.
Beckett labored through his first 2 innings, throwing 51 pitches and walking 3 while giving up 1 run in the process. BoSox have yet to get the sticks going. 1-0 Halos in the bottom of the 2nd...

Napoli looks like Blanton's hairier, catcher brother.
But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.

For a second, I thought you said "hairier, catchier brother"
and I thought, “Is Napoli really that much of a catch?”

I think you have the makings of a screenplay here, Jennifer
It’s like The Parent Trap, only with baseball! Twins separated at birth, one ends up the catcher on the AL champion, the other a pitcher on the NL champion, and they discover the truth during the World Series….

To be honest with you
I don’t really want to see another K-Fail blown save.
It would kill the chances of him resigning with the Angels.
And I want him to resign with the Angels, as he continues to deteriorate. It’s money that can’t be spent on Teixeira/big bat.

Really, it was a win-win with this Angels/Sox game: Angels lose, and they’re done. Sox lose, and all their fans go home depressed after watching two ugly teams play an ugly game for 38643 hours.
And a win for me too: two more games tomorrow. Sweeps are overrated, anyway.

seeing the home team lose all three times.
But yes, we can do without sweeps. Last year out of a possible 20 DS games, we got 13. 2006 it was 14. This year the least amount we’ll see is 15.
Last time a DS went the distance: 2005 (Angels def. Yanks).
