Jacoby can score from 1st on a passed ball. A double is child's play.

just Manny and Crisp, really IIRC.
Eric Wedge had been a former catcher in Sox system.
Trot of course, former Sox.

Dunno...but I’d love to see the Tribe repeat their 7 run inning again...I don’t like being this far down, I don’t care how early in the game this is.

Drew was the recipient of a desperate pitcher on both occasions. Hitters love that.
To: P.O.E.
It could turn around in an inning.
Our bats are better and our field is better.
Our mound sucks, but so does yours

Momentum is with Bean Town.
However, Carmona is helping...

Great! I bet it’s wild out there:) I lived down at the very end- just before the Fens- across from (not sure if it’s still there) Berkley School of Music..
ENJOY!
