BJs GO DOWN FOR SOX

I'm classless, but in a class by myself.

Boston Red Sox 7
Toronto Blue Jays 1
Story
Box Score
W: Ramiro Mendoza (3-3)
L: Corey Lidle (10-8)

Magic Number: 75

This is the second time I've had to write this as the Blogger thingy fucked up my Internet Explorer which meant I had to close about 30 sites that I was reading so now I have to go thru my ESPN Bottomline and redo almost the entire post. At least the Sox won which makes the whole thing bareable.

This was truly a great win for the Sox as Ramiro Mendoza had a solid start on the turf going 5 and giving up only one run against a great offensive club. Speaking of offense, all of it came from the 5 thru 9 hitters as the only Run scored by the 1 thru 4 hitters was scored by Manny. The 1 thru 4 hitters had no RBI. Garciaparra continued his poor stretch going 0 for 5. Gabe Kapler went 1 for 4 with a pair of RBI. He wasn't scheduled to start but Damon was unable to so Kapler got the nod. He's definately earned more time than he's getting. But Grady probably won't start him tonight against Detroit because he's a fucking moron. "Big" Bill Mueller gets the Man of the Game for his 4 for 4 performance, his 2 RBIs, his Triple, and his Run Scored. Here are the MOTG standings after 29 awarded:

1. Nomar - 4
2. Millar, Varitek - 3
3. Nixon, Mueller - 2
5. Kapler, Manny, Pedro, Burkett, Sanchez, Rupe, Lyon, R. Halladay (TOR), M. Mussina (NYY), A. Pettitte (NYY) J. Crede (CWS), E. Loiza (CWS), JD Drew (StL), B. Myers (PHI), J. Pierre (FLA) - 1

If you've been watching any sports show or listening to sports radio, you know about what happened in Milwaukee the other night. Randall Simon hit a sausage in it's head. The girl inside the sausage (no I'm not a dyslexic porn writer), a UW-Milwaukee student, was fine. She was in the Italian sausage (#3 in your programs, #1 in your hearts). She escaped the incident with bruised knees (which she probably got before the game) and apparantly her brain was damaged as she now speaks with a retarded Midwestern accent. Simon will not face criminal charges. The Brewers will have a chance for revenge on August 15th when they will be witness to the PNC Park Parogie race in Pittsburgh.

In a related story, the German bratwurst won the race and then conquered Milwaukee.

ESPN The Magazine's 21st Century All-Star Team. Note the lack of Red Sox. Way to GM Duquette.

Sox rotate rotation to get Pedro into Y*nkees series. So basically, instead of Pedro pitching July 17th against Toronto, then July 22nd against Detroit, then July 27th against the Y*nkees; Grady is starting Pedro July 20th against Toronto and then the 25th against the Y*nkees. So why is Grady essentially skipping Pedro in the midst of a playoff race? Because he doesn't want to pitch him the day after returning from the Dominican. Grady needs to go.

I'm told that last night, r*ger cl*mens was on Letterman giving out the Top 10. One of the things he said was "ive learned that it doesnt matter whether you win or lose...well, least thats the way it was in Boston." Okay r*ger, you asked for it. In true David Letterman style:

Now, from the home office in Norwood, Mass. the Top 10 Reasons why I'll Kill r*ger cl*mens on sight...

10. You played for U. Texas, Texas sucks, OU 4 life!
9. You forced the Jays to trade him to the Y*nkees using an under-the-table clause
8. The -1.58 difference between your ERA in 1996 and 1997
7. Your 1-2 playoff record with the Sox
6. For all the Twinkies you ate when you were with the Sox
5. Your complaining aobut the Sox not giving you a new contract when you were 4-11
4. Your second chin's rookie year in 1993
3. Being a pussy and avoiding Shea Stadium
2. After 3 months of being a Y*nkee, you wear a Y*nkee cap at Fenway during the introduction of the All-Century team
And now, the #1 Reason why I'll Kill r*ger cl*mens on sight...
You're The Anti-Christ along with Steinbrenner.

Red Sox Nation bids adieu to Walter McCarty and Don Sweeney. Think the Bruins will trade Lapointe to Detroit for CuJo? HA!
