I'm gonna tell you a story
I'm gonna tell you about my town
I'm gonna tell you a big bad story, baby
Aww, it's all about my town

Yeah, down by the river
Down by the banks of the river Charles (aw, that's what's happenin' baby)
That's where you'll find me
Along with lovers, fuggers, and thieves (aw, but they're cool people)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, you're the Number One place)
Frustrated women (I mean they're frustrated)
Have to be in by twelve o'clock (oh, that's a shame)
But I'm wishin' and a-hopin, oh
That just once those doors weren't locked (I like to save time for
my baby to walk around)
Well I love that dirty water
Oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, yeah)

Because I love that dirty water
Oh, oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, yeah)

Well, I love that dirty water (I love it, baby)
I love that dirty water (I love Baw-stun)
I love that dirty water (Have you heard about the Strangler?)
I love that dirty water (I'm the man, I'm the man)
I love that dirty water (Owww!)
I love that dirty water (Come on, come on)
Oh, oh, Boston, you're my home.

[big'ol_freeper]

3-0!!!! Shippin up to Boston..who oh oh!! Duck boats on the Charles.

[SamAdams76]

I think Jacoby Ellsbury is in the major leagues to stay.

[big'ol_freeper]

Night all.

[GraniteStateConservative]

Pap only threw 15 pitches. He’s available tomorrow.

[misterrob]

Yeah but consider that they have gotten key contributions from Pedroia, Youk, Ellsbury, and Papelbon who were brought up from the minors and Beckett and Lowell were acquired in a trade for prospects. Tek was a trade when he was very young. Ortiz was released by the Twins and the rest were acquired from FA or trades.

The Sox and Yankees are now spending their money on draft picks and getting guys that other teams will stay away from due to fears they cannot sign them. That’s how the Yankees got Hughes and the Chambermaid

[warsaw44]

see you tomorrow.

[Boston Blackie]

Good Night All.

I think Jacoby Ellsbury is in the major leagues to stay.

I sure hope so. Absolutely amazing year for Ellsbury... AA to AAA to the Majors.

WOO-HOO!!! Red Sox up 3-0

See you all tomorrow night.

[GraniteStateConservative]

He needs more seasoning in Pawtucket. Definitely.

[warsaw44]

see you tomorrow!

[nutmeg]

Pap only threw 15 pitches. He’s available tomorrow.

Sure hope so... I was fearing we'd see GagMe tomorrow night. :-O

[misterrob]

Yeah but who’s got innings 7 & 8? I fear we may see Gagne before the night is over and it won’t be because we are that far ahead.

Then again, Colorado had to eat 6 1/3 innings tonight. We had to go 3 and 2/3. Let’s see how they look tomorrow if we knock their SP out early. If they light us up then we can use Snyder and Lopez and Gagne for 5 innings and have Papelbon and Okijima for Game 5 and 3 innings on a night that Beckett starts.

[misterrob]

He will likely struggle next year as clubs start to develop a book on him. His speed will always buy him some hits but I would love to see him learn to draw walks and let stuff outside the zone go. He’s got a quick bat though which covers some sins but he needs work. Some scouts think Grady Sizemore when they look at him. If Jacoby can become that good then the Sox are in good shape.

[misterrob]

We still might. I only hope it’s to pitch the 8th inning with us up by 6 and Papelbon warming in the pen. Hell, Papelbon should be on the mound when we are about to sew it up no matter what the score.

[cleveland gop]

Think of how other GM’s wish they could be as good as Theo when it comes to evaluating talent. Our Shaprio, and Colorado’s O’Dowd(ex-Indian Asst. GM)are close, but haven’t hit the jackpot as often as Theo has.

Good night all, see ya tomorrow!
