Red Sox lead 5-2, bottom of the 4th! Sorry guys... any other day I'd be rooting for the Mets (in the NL), but not for the next three nights!

Oops, see my post #4. Didn't realize you are a Mets fan too.

Nothing you can say can hurt as much as that error by Milledge ;)

Maybe it's me, but this Lester kid seems to be throwing a lot harder than 85, 87 mph.

I keep hearing a chant of "Let's Go Mets!" cropping up in the distance at Fenway. Clemenza, why do I have this sneaking suspicion that YOU started it? ;-D

The Monster is tough to play and the wind is rough tonight. He looks like he is going to be a good one.

I have to be honest and say I haven't really noticed. I'm watching the game on NESN (New England Sports Network)... I'll try to take notice. That last pitch a minute ago (his 95th) was 88 mph.

He's sneaky fast. He can throw 94 then dial it down to mid-70's for his curve. I think when he gets his control and his poise down he is going to be really good.

He was considered untradable by the Sox.

I like lastings a lot, but he needs to go down when Floyd's ready, and get it together for September.

I am AT Fenway as we speak. My pocket PC/blackberry functions here! Can't say much, other than I am a bit nervous about tonight.

I haven't seen the gun on every pitch, but especially in the 1st-2nd, every time he'd throw hard, I'd look ane it was like "88"

Oh reyes, what the Hell did you do!!!!

WHOA... this is a first! A live on-the-scene post to me on FR.

Kewl... what section are you in? I know most of Fenway like the back of my hand. Isn't it beautiful?

I'm nervous about the Mets-Red Sox series as well. The Mets are a formidible team...

I like Reyes... my husband and I have followed his career since he was with the Norfolk Tides a few years ago. We went to the Tides ballpark a couple of times when Reyes was on the team... he really stuck out - it was hard not to notice his talent.
