Charlie Zink, a 29 year old knuckleballer replacing Tim Wakefield (DL) tonight for the Red Sox, has some early run support- a 10 run 1st inning for the Sox, led by Ortiz's 2 homers in the inning.

Frayed Knot Aug 12 2008 05:51 PM

Probably not often that a knuckle-baller get replaced by a knuckle-baller

seawolf17 Aug 12 2008 06:00 PM

All ten runs off Scott Feldman, who's still pitching in the second.

seawolf17 Aug 12 2008 07:14 PM

Aaron Heilman pitching now for Boston, as the Rangers score eight in the fifth. 14-10 Patriots.

Nymr83 Aug 12 2008 07:45 PM

its 15-14 texas now in this wild game

Gwreck Aug 12 2008 08:17 PM

Phillies up 1-0 in the first on an Utley solo homer. Let's go Dodgers.

metirish Aug 12 2008 08:18 PM

Did I hear right that Torre is making Manny cut the long hair?

soupcan Aug 12 2008 08:30 PM

1-1 Dodgers tie it.

soupcan Aug 12 2008 08:40 PM

Phillie up 2-1 in the second.

Frayed Knot Aug 12 2008 08:46 PM

16-16 bottom 8 in Boston

Frayed Knot Aug 12 2008 08:50 PM

19-16 Boston, still bottom 8 Nothing pennant related, but SFG RHP Tim Lincecum left game in Houston after a liner off his knee.

AG/DC Aug 12 2008 09:00 PM

An error by Youklis gets the Rangers a chance to rally back.

AG/DC Aug 12 2008 09:01 PM

Brandon Boggs pinch doubles. One out against Papal Bond, tying run at the plate. And his name is... ...Laird, c.

AG/DC Aug 12 2008 09:02 PM

Flies out to Drew. Chris Davis up.

AG/DC Aug 12 2008 09:04 PM

Ball game. Thank Okajima.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 12 2008 09:29 PM

MFYs had a 6-3 lead in the 8th but Marte put on two guys and they brought mariano in for a 5-out save, only to see him give up a game-tying 3-run homer to the first batter he faced, Delmon Young. 6-6 now going to bottom 9. heh.

Frayed Knot Aug 12 2008 09:37 PM

That's Mariano's first blown save of the season - although, oddly, he's been beat around in non-save (but still imporrtant) situations like extra innings and other tie games. Also, assuming that two of those runs were counted against Marte, that's like 9 ER on about 15 baserunners in less than 8 IPs for him since the trade. And he was the good reliever dealt at the deadline.

Gwreck Aug 12 2008 09:57 PM

Dodgers had first and second with no outs in the 6th but could only get one run in. 3-2 Philly, end of the 6th.

Nymr83 Aug 12 2008 11:33 PM

4-3 Dodgers is your final!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 13 2008 01:03 PM

MFY Gay Dame: Geise on his between-starts rest day comes in to relieve Rasner and leaves with a shoulder injury after loading the bases. Minny leading 3-1 but poised for more with abses loaded 0 out in the 6th

Gwreck Aug 13 2008 01:13 PM

Gameday tells me "on-field delay" after Delmon Young strikes out swinging. That usually means argument/fight/etc. Anyone know what's going on there?

seawolf17 Aug 13 2008 01:20 PM

Clicked over to the ESPN boards, and someone said an umpire took a foul ball off the facemask, causing the delay. Don't know how reliable that source is.

sharpie Aug 13 2008 01:22 PM

In any event Twins scored 1 more run to lead 4-1.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 13 2008 01:27 PM

Yeah, home plate umpire left the game with a foul-tip related injury of some kind, and they're playing now with 3 umps.

metirish Aug 13 2008 01:30 PM

Makes no difference if the MFY lose today or lose every game this season , Hank said next year they will win it all...oh and never before in the long history of the game has a team suffered injuries like his beloved squad has this season....oh and Joba "had become the most dominant starting pitcher in baseball"....STFU Wank.

AG/DC Aug 13 2008 01:50 PM

Oh, I think he should keep talking.

sharpie Aug 13 2008 02:23 PM

Well, this year's MFYs lost again to the Twins, 4-2.

I saw that quote. It made me throw up in my mouth a little. He really thinks this stuff, doesn't he? Yeek.

Frayed Knot Aug 13 2008 05:21 PM

Looks like my pep talk to the Twinkies helped a little bit at least. They still lost the season series to the Yanx 4-6 but 2 out of the last 3 helps. Speaking of the Yanx (just caught the highlights of their game) Cano is turning into a real pice o shit. In the first game loss to Minny, he watched the slow bouncer that beat Mariano trickle on by him without a dive or even a lunge. Today he screwed up a possible GiDP by getting too comfy with the neighborhood play and getting neither out. A 3R HR followed. Then, after getting called off on a blooper by Cabrera coming in from CF, he didn't go for it but also did nothing to get out of Melky's way who dropped the ball trying to reach around the stationary Cano. That lazy 'tude, which was barely tolerable when he was hitting .300 with 40 doubles, has got to be killing MFY fans now that his OBA is barely .300

metirish Aug 13 2008 05:23 PM

Imagine the outcry amongst the media if a Mets player ever acted like Cano.....

Frayed Knot Aug 13 2008 05:36 PM

Yanqui followers have been so busy blaming ARod for all their problems that they're just now getting around to the point where they realize that "the home-grown kids" are more the source of their misery. - Cano's a lazy sucka - Melky can't hit - Kennedy just plain sucks - and Hughes can't stay helthy

AG/DC Aug 13 2008 07:57 PM

And Chamberlain needs to push himself away from the table.

Gwreck Aug 13 2008 09:26 PM

Phillies had an early 4-0 and 6-1 lead in LA but a Ramirez homer brought it back to 6-3, still only in the 4th inning. Brad Penny out after 3 for LA. Blanton going for the Phils.

AG/DC Aug 13 2008 09:50 PM

Brad Penny is also no stranger to dessert, wears Piazza's number for the Dodgers, and was part of that bizarre Alyssa Milano festival of conquest that eventually led to her getting a license to produce sanctioned MLB clothing for baseball doxies. Now he's spotting leads to the Phillies. I've got no use for the guy

Gwreck Aug 13 2008 11:20 PM

Kent's 2-out 2-RBI double tied it in the eighth off Durbin. Nomar hit Clay Condrey for the walk-off in the 9th. And we are again tied for first place.

I tried to warn you, Phillies. The Metsies are coming, baby.

AG/DC Aug 14 2008 06:04 AM

The Mets have arrived. LA's win ties them with Arizona also.

I almost fell off the treadmill following this one! Awesome. I went to bed with the Phils up 6-1 and was surprised and pleased to hear on the drive in this morning that the Dodgas had come back to win. Mets win. Phillies lose. Marlins lose. Rinse. Repeat.

Gwreck Aug 14 2008 08:57 PM

It's Brett (asshole) Myers vs. Hiroki Kuroda tonight in LA. Dodgers up 1-0 on an RBI groundout by Nomar, middle of the 4th.

Gwreck Aug 14 2008 10:32 PM

3-1 is the final as Los Angeles completes the 4-game sweep. Thanks, Dodgers.

metsguyinmichigan Aug 14 2008 10:58 PM

No wonder Fred is building the stadium to be a Dodger shrine!!!

That's a strange way to observe Easter.

Fman99 Aug 15 2008 07:16 AM

I can't stay up late enough to watch those West coast games, most nights, but I'm glad to see the Phightin' Phils phall on their phaces out there this week. Good stuff.
