2nd inning today vs. Oakland.

Mags led off with a homerun.
2nd at bat in the 2nd, mags hit a 3-run homer.
Fun.

Hey, I'm back! (Here's a preemptive "shut up" for JR.) I've been in Orlando for most of the last week with my dad and haven't been able to check in regularly. Sox lost last night in a well-pitched game. How do we lose a 1-0 pitchers' duel to Tampa Bay??!?!

Sox still have the best record in baseball, but they now have the smallest division lead in the AL. Yankees are only 5 games back, after both teams went 7-3 in their last 10. They meet up for a weekend series starting Friday, which I think wraps up the regular season series for them. Dice-K, Beckett and Schill for the Sox; Pettitte, Wang, and Hughes for the Evil Empire.

Sox only have 17 games left and 5 of those are against Tampa Bay. Yankees have 3 against Tampa Bay, but 6 against the O's.

So, basically, Yankees are going to win 2 out of 3.

One at a time, Lord Byron.
Tigers need 2.
I think Santana is pitching on Saturday.
Only the Tribe has won every game against him.

If you're gonna blow a 7-1 lead one night, I guess the best follow-up is to blow 'em out 10-1 the next night. And hey, the bullpen actually made it thru 2 innings without giving up a run. That pushes the division lead back to 5.5 and cuts the Yankees wild card lead to 3 games. Tigers are already up 4 runs on the Twins tonight, so that lead may be 2.5 by the end of the night.

What ever happened to the dueling football thread? And won't we all think 'Belicheck' when we hear the word 'Donaghy'?

I won't think about Donaghy, and I doubt that Belichick did anything but take all of the blame.

Maybe so. Merely avoiding a sweep works for me.
Tigers still need plenty of help, and adding a little perfume to the visitors dugout in Cleveland would make scents.

Should have saved a couple of those extra runs for the next night when they actually might have meant something.

Anyway, 4 down on the loss side with like a dozen left. Still hope. That team in Detroit is hanging in too.
