Sox lose to the Jays, 3-2.

This is kinda left over from yesterday's post game thread, but I'm wondering what happens to the Mr. Wells when Grandy comes back. He seems to have become more that a nice fit in the line up. He's a cheerful leader as well, friend of the press pool, etc.

[2] Third base!

Also left over from yesterday's thread: Kenny & Cone are great, though did anyone catch Coney dropping a 'Overbay is a professional hitter' in the 6th inning?

Going to miss tonight's 試合 unfortunately, Let's Go Yankees!

Grrr, Stewart. Scooter is very upset.

6 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 6:47 pm

Still booing Robbie? Get over it Kansas City.

7 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 11, 2013 6:49 pm

Wheeeeeeeeeeee!

8 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 6:49 pm

Why thank you Royals, we appreciate the help.

9 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 6:58 pm

And we give it right back.

10 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 11, 2013 7:01 pm

Wheeeeeeeeee!

I saw a game last night but I forget the teams. Pitcher caught a line drive and wheeled to double up the runner who strayed too far second. Both the 2nd baseman and SS stopped short of the bag as the pitcher's throw sailed into center. Oi!

12 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 7:16 pm

Ugh.

13 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 7:20 pm

Cool about Andy's son.

14 Boatzilla   ~  May 11, 2013 7:21 pm

[4] I noticed that. So is Floyd Mayweather.

However, they used to say that about Matsui, too.

15 Boatzilla   ~  May 11, 2013 7:23 pm

Sunday here, boys, Gotta go get some flowers for the wife/mom. Did you pony up, Jazz?

16 Boatzilla   ~  May 11, 2013 7:34 pm

See [2]. Platoon?

17 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 7:40 pm

Geez, you go to let the dogs put and you miss all the fun.

18 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 11, 2013 7:52 pm

Holy Circus Show.

19 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 11, 2013 8:04 pm

Watch your lips!

20 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 11, 2013 8:06 pm

Robbie got hosed. Rats.

21 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 8:08 pm

Ah, the ole 1-4-3 play.

22 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 8:25 pm

Nice, David. Now how about some insurance?

23 cult of basebaal   ~  May 11, 2013 8:25 pm

NAILED!

NAILED!!

NAILED!!!

24 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 8:35 pm

Mo time!

25 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 11, 2013 8:35 pm

Mo is setting quite the precedent with his Retirement Tour.

26 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 11, 2013 8:38 pm

Excuse me double. Shite.

27 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 8:38 pm

Ruh roh.

28 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 8:39 pm

Phew!

29 rbj   ~  May 11, 2013 8:42 pm

Ah, Mo.

30 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 11, 2013 8:42 pm

That was one scary ass 9th! All Rise.

31 Mattpat11   ~  May 11, 2013 8:42 pm

This was Kansas City's game to win in this series. Shields vs a struggling Pettitte was their best shot.

HIROK for the sweep tomorrow.

32 cult of basebaal   ~  May 11, 2013 8:43 pm

You're tacos, Moose!

33 Alex Belth   ~  May 11, 2013 8:46 pm

Phew, that was close. And that's one tough-ass at bat by Moose there.

All Praise Mo.

Nice win.
