[easytiger]

Loaiza looks like Ray Romano

 

[popacrobat]

i'm not sane.

 

[DaveC]

Who the fuck made the call for ORTIZ to steal??!???!??

 

[easytiger]

why was Ortiz running?


on to the 13th...

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

ortiz was cleary safe due to the high throw, but shit... he should be out just on priciple... who the hell gives the steal signal to david ortiz?!?!?!

 

[ramblin rose]

I'm starting to think that the Astros game will be over before this one.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

I'm staring to think that the Astros game will be over before this one.

i said the same thing to my friend 5 minutes ago

 

[popacrobat]

who gives a steal signal for david ortiz?

somebod who thinks david ortiz can steal a bag

which he did.

and they calle dhim out

 

[popacrobat]

wow.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

who gives a steal signal for david ortiz?

somebod who thinks david ortiz can steal a bag

which he did.

and they calle dhim out

come on now... you can not possiably think asking ortiz to steal was a good move... yes he was safe... but it's still stupid.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

torre should pinch run lofton here... let him steal every base off the knuckler

 

[popacrobat]

stupid? or ballsy. you need to sack up in the playoffs and be agressive.

the sox were agressive, and he was safe. it was a good call because he should have been safe. it was aggressive, and it needs to be in the playoffs.

the sox were agressive, and he was safe. it was a good call because he should have been safe. it was aggressive, and it needs to be in the playoffs.

it was a horrific call... there's a differene between ballsy and stupid... that was plain stupid. he's your slowest player. he hasn't stolen a base in 2 years... it's not ballsy, it's dumb. just because a call turns out ok doesn't make it a good call.

 

[DaveC]

If they intended to steal, why not put in Roberts to pinch-run?

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

roberts had already pinch run... and speaking of pinch run... if torre woulda pinch ran lofton, the yankees would have a lead right here. passed ball city

 

[speedracer]

Why is Mirabelli not catching????

 

[popacrobat]

bat

 

[Mark Freedman]

I can't take this anymore.

 

[speedracer]

bat

He's not too much worse than Varitek.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

and we're off to the 14th...

i do believe the longest postseason game in history is the Astros vs. the Mets in 1986 at 16 innings... i'm sure tom mccarter will correct me if i be wrong

 

[DaveC]

this is the longest ALCS game ever, might be the longest CS game period.

 

[popacrobat]

silly goose its rocketships not astros. ted mcguire said so.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

this is the longest ALCS game ever, might be the longest CS game period.

time-wise it's the longest... mets astros deffinetly went 16 innings in 86 so it's not the longest inningwise yet

 

[popacrobat]

patriots and red sox like u2.

nobody gets why we go from tres to catorce in vertigo.

sox/yanks will explain it.

game 3 at fenway park in this series will last 14 innings.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

every yankee hitter thus far has tried to yank every single knuckler out of the ball park... just friggin make contact

 

[speedracer]

"Beautiful Day" is practically the Patriots' anthem.

 

[drivemytrabant]

While this is going on--I'm missing a GREAT game in Houston. But notice I'm not changing the channel.

 

[popacrobat]

me

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

i must say there have been a bunch of questionable calls by the umpires against both teams in this game

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

what the hell are these umps lookin' at... same exact pitch to manny, one called a ball, one called a strike... back to back. i'm baffled... i don't know what's a ball and what's a strike anymore
