As a die-hard baseball fan of the female persuation, Nomar ain't no scuzball!

[dep]

yup. 3-0 ain't good enough, though. final score ought to be something like 18-0.

is there an internet radio station with this game on?
I have to listen to it out of Rochester, and I am in the middle of michigan.. not great reception.

[Severa]

Ok you owe me a new keyboard for that dammit *LOL* Was beginning to wonder when (not if) it was gonna happen.

[Dog]

Why did you include me in that post?

[Chad Fairbanks]

Relax... just joshin' ya... (Ya yankee lover) ;0)

We haven't really been doing the taunting thing on these game threads. It is quite pleasurable without that sort of thing.

Go Red Sox.

[truthandjustice1]

I'd be happy to elaborate. But not right now. You will see.

Top 3rd: N Garciaparra fouled out to first. M Ramirez flied out to right. D Ortiz grounded out to first. (0 Runs, 0 Hits, 0 Errors)

No one is noticing all the updates I am doing to the body of the 'article' :-(

[StarFan]

Glad your power is back on nutmeg. Hate to think you'd miss the Yankees walking away with it.

[SamAdams76]

NIXON'S THE ONE!!

picture suggests he ain't of the female persuasion, either.

[Chad Fairbanks]

If you say you have "THe Gift", I'm gonna scream, k? So don't ;0)

[Cboldt]

Word is that CBS Sportsline (web, not broadcast) is the closest you'll get. Haven't heard of any web audiocast.

[StatesEnemy]

Wow. I hope my kids never act like that.

Don't worry, that's a photoshop'd image of a rowdy English soccer tyke.

[Cathryn Crawford]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...let me look again. Nope.

Wait. Let me check once more. Nope.

One more time....

[F16Fighter]

"Boones not playing becuase he can't hit. Evidnetly his replacement can't throw. A dilemma, no?"

A little irony, eh? Boone comes about as close to hitting as Ray Charles might. Boone replaced Ventura who the Yanks thought couldn't hit. So who do they wind up with game 7 for the pennant?? ENRIQUE WILSON?? Gimee a break!

The Yanks weaknesses are being highlighted against Boston -- NO clutch hitting; a mediocre lineup; and no "bridge" to Mariano.

[Catspaw]

You're doing a wonderful job. Inbetween the dog wanting to go out then come in then go out again, the phone ringing and making a big bowl of popcorn, I've been missing parts of the game.
