TROT CRUSHES D-RAYS
Boring games leading up to the Y*nkees series. A series that I intend to sit or stand atop the Green Monster. Will definately be doing some wheeling and dealing on my own Saturday morning.
Tampa Bay AA's 4
BoSox 10
W: Wakefield (7-5)
L: Harper (1-6)
BS: Harper (2)
Magic Number: 67
Wrapup & Box Score
Just a few thoughts:
Why is Jeremy Giambi still on this team? Why was he playing today? He went 1 for 4 (when going 1 for 4 improves your average, you officially suck) and his sole hit was overshadowed by sloppy baserunning that cost us a run.
Gabe Kapler's nickname is definately Waldo. Grady can't seem to find this guy.
Scott Sauerbeck made his Red Sox debut pitching a scoreless inning with a strikeout and a walk. Great move by Theo. We still need another starting pitcher, however, or a closer that would move Kim back to the rotation.
Garciaparra went 0 for 4 on his 30th birthday. Last year, his birthday featured a huge 8 RBI performance. Nomar shares the exact same birthday with Monica Lewinsky.
Today is J-Lo's ass's birthday. It's her birthday too.
Manny got his second stolen base of the season. He's 2 for 2.
Y*nkees beat the Jays.
The Man of the Game is Christopher Trotman Nixon. The D-Rays got their Trot here in a big way. He went 3 for 4 with a solo shot, a Grand Slam, and was responsible for half of the Sox offense. It is his third MOTG awardwhich moves him out of 5th into a tie in 2nd. Here are the MOTG after 37 (in a row?) awarded:
1. Nomar - 5
2. PEDRO, Nixon, Millar, Varitek - 3
6. Manny, R. Halladay (TOR), Mueller - 2
9. Lowe, Walker, Kapler, Burkett, Sanchez, Rupe, Lyon, M. Mussina (NYY), A. Pettitte (NYY) J. Crede (CWS), E. Loiza (CWS), JD Drew (StL), B. Myers (PHI), J. Pierre (FLA) - 1
A bit of intrigue concerning the Sauerbeck (I'm just gonna call him S-beck cuz I can't spell) deal. Apparently, the Y*nkees were trying to get S-Beck from Pittsburgh and we stole them from underneath their cocaine filled noses. Good for us. I think we got the better deal considering Orosco's ERA is nearly as high as his age.
