that is totally where we should throw him the party, BTW. Good call.

Wow, these boston announcers are horrible.
I think if they weren’t up in the booth they’d actually be out on the field cupping the Sox players’ balls for them.
i wish sox fans knew that
it will be the only game that the half-wit bandwagon sox fans around me know about… since they don’t actually watch the team… they’ll just talk about this for a month
please please please
for the love of all things holy, please don’t let this happen, i live 45 min outside boston and the local yokels will be INSUFFERABLE tomorrow if this happens…
lol
the closed captioning on my tv just said that was lester’s 1925th pitch of the night.
There's no crying in baseball!
Its a great Story for Lester..
Beats cancer now throw a no hitter. This goes beyond baseball.
When will then be now? Soon.
But should it count when you finish a guy off named- Kai Ass Po?

Colleges
I blame all the Boston-area colleges for constantly creating new SUX fans. People got to school there for four years, suddenly “discover” baseball, and think the SUX invented it.
I've come to the conclusion that the two most important things in life are good friends and a good bullpen.
When I sat in the bleachers a couple of times
at Fenway in the 80’s, they mostly seemed to be (re)discovering beer.

This guy lost something out of his jeep and I noticed that he had a BP hat. I had to stop and offer help… and he had an A’s plate too. I almost wanted to ask for his phone # but didn’t want to scare him.

I like defense. I tend to watch defense: catchers, 2B’s, and shifts. It’s just my personal bias, but I tend to think a game in which the ball is put into play by the defense sort of emphasizes how extra important defense is.

Man, I hurt all over today.
12 hour training classes are killers. The part about being choked out sucked ass too. I am far to old for this crap.
