I can’t remember a year where I ended up so closely scrutinising the PawSox, but this year it seems half the team will make its way up to Fenway to play. Yay Andy, yay Nasty Martinez. Youkilis seems ready to stay in the majors. And big up to Tito for actually letting McCarty hit on 3-0. Amazing. You’d think all the Sox opponents know the green light’s on by now, but apparently not. Go “Mr Harvard”.
Foulke had to implode sometime. Nice that he came back on in the 9th though, like the 8th inning was just a bad memory. And, since I’m feeling generous apres a Sox win, nice for Guardado, one of those non-Sox players that I like, that he bounced back in the 9th too. It’s almost as though they came on in the 8th and went, “what the hell am I doing here in the 8th, my setup guys should’ve done this…”
And finally - isn’t Putz a horrible last name to have grown up with?
