Beckett was very effective in an odd way. Most pitchers would have given up six or seven runs with that lack of command. And the hitters, despite getting few hits, built up the pitch count, which would have worked against most non-Verlander pitchers.

I still can't believe they let the game end with the Red Sox still behind. I didn't think that was allowed.




Congrats to Beckett for hanging in there. And, of course, to Verlander.

Nice job by Aceves today. This is why he's valuable in the bullpen. 4 extra-innings pitched for the win.

They were due for a speedbump. Nice to see they're back on track after the White Sox series.

Im pretty sure the ump initiated all of that. Can the ump be suspended?

For as long as the ump gets suspended for starting ****? Pap wasn't even talking to him, had turned around and the ump takes off his mask and comes out from behind the plate. That confrontation was entirely caused by the umpire. Of course, MLB will suspend Pap but not say a word about the ump.

Pap gets 3 games. The ump gets 0.

And you expected different. Outside of Big East basketball, can anyone name an official being held responsible??
Tim Higgins used to do my HS games in the early 70's. He was good then, too.

This game is going to take five hours to play. Can't anyone pitch?

Did roberto luongo pitch the 7th for the yanks?

Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent

Throwing at Ortiz was a genius move.

Hey, have they re-scheduled the game against Baltimore that was postponed? I was going thru my pocketbook and found the tickets and realized I have no idea when the make up game is.

Re: The 2011 Boston Red Sox: This Space for Rent

My God, the Red Sox are beating Toronto badly enough to make me forget about the Bruins' game 5 loss.

Not really.

But 8-1 through 4+ innings, one day after winning 16-4?
