Let the War Begin...more like let the slaughter begin. Wells tonight, Schilling tomorrow...I hope we get out of this still a game ahead.

Play ball.

Blew the catch?

Got the XM fired up listening to the pre-game, here at the office. The beauty of XM..I can follow the game in the car on the short commute home. GO SOX!

Maybe he pulled up because Damon would get to second if he doesn't handle it clean?

[RonF]

Come on Papi - smack one!

Infield single by Manny? Guess his legs took advantage of the rest, anyway.

I posted this under crime given Giambi the cheaters use of roids.

Sheff did roids, too. By accident...

from today's Boston Herald (LOL!):

Kapler sorry about base act: Hopes Yanks not offended

NEW YORK - Gabe Kapler issued an apology to the New York Yankees following yesterday's 9-2 victory at Yankee Stadium and said he didn't intend to show up the Red Sox' rivals by racing to an unmanned second base in the ninth inning.

Kapler, who went 2-for-5, was on first base with two outs in the ninth after reaching safely on a fielder's choice grounder. With New York playing back and the Sox leading by seven runs, the veteran outfielder violated baseball's unwritten protocol by taking the base on defensive indifference.

The gesture could easily have been interpreted as a sign the Sox were flaunting their large lead. Kapler said it was simply a brain cramp on his part.

``I pride myself on being professional,'' he said. ``I'm not showing anyone up. It was a poor error in judgment. I just want to make sure they all know that I apologize and fell asleep. It was nothing but me not thinking about the situation of the game.''

Will A-Rod bring his purse this year to help slap the ball away on those close plays at first base?
