SOX LOSE TO O'S IN FIRST GAME
Boston Red Sox 2
Baltimore Orioles 7
W: Sir Sidney Ponson (1-0)
L: Pedro "God" Martinez (0-1)
S: BJ Ryan (1)
H: Rodrigo Lopez (1)
All I can say is that the offense needs to get on track if we're gonna win this year. We need Millar, Mueller, Tek, Ortiz, and Damon to do near what they did last year especially with Trot and Nomar out and Reese replacing Walker. The Sox got one extra base hit and left 14 men on base. That's just terrible.
Pedro was shaky at first which scared the piss out of me. But he settled down very nicely. Of the final 13 batters he faced, only one hit the ball out of the infield. He also got out of a no out, 2nd and 3rd jam. Technically it was a Quality Start and in my opinion, he should have won the game. Our offense led the world in sugging last year and our slugging percentage this game was 0.333. That's just bad.
The O's looked good but I wouldn't worry about them threatening for the division. Beyond Ponson and Jorge Julio, they have no pitching. And since when do the Orioles have fans?
Javy Lopez is going to get the 1st Man of the Game award of the 2004 season. He went 3 for 4 with a double and a homerun. He scored a run and knocked in 3. He also had a solid night behind the plate.
The Bitch-Goat shall be divided thusly:
Mike Timlin put the game out of reach with his lackluster performance. He'll get 0.4 of the B-G. Pedro didn't pitch amazingly and shall get 0.2. Millar gets 0.1 cuz he got a hit and left 3 men on. Ortiz went hitless and left 5 men so he gets 0.1. Damon was 0/5 and left 5 men on. He also looked like a hobo so he gets 0.1. Williamson gave up a run that really put the game out of reach so he gets 0.1.
The sox have a day off and Schilling will take on Kurt ainsworth Tuesday at 3. I have class at 4 so this pisses me off, but I'll be able to listen to most of the game on MLB Radio.
BRUINS WIN NORTHEAST DIVISION
They also got the 2nd seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs. they'll play 7th seeded Montreal Canadiens. I really hope we ebat these fucks. I hate the Habs with all of my heart. I hate their pussy style of play replete with diving and being chippy assholes. Here is the schedule for the series:
Wed 4/7: Boston
Fri 4/9: Boston
Sun 4/11: Montreal
Tue 4/13: Montreal
Thu 4/15: Boston*
Sat 4/17: Montreal*
Mon 4/19: Boston*
*=if necessary
All games are at 7 except the 4/17 game. tampa Bay will take on the Islanders, Philly takes on Jersey, and toronto takes on Ottawa. Out west, Detroit plays Nashville, San Jose takes on St Louis, Vancouver takes on Calgary, and colorodo takes on Dallas.
Until next time, all I gotta say is 161-1!
