Coco Crisp may be my all time favorite name.

That may be the winner, but let's keep going. BTW - at one time, the manager of the minor league team at Walla Walla was Cliff Ditto.

I remember reading that fact in one of Jim Bouton's books. FWIW, Jim Bouton went to my HS where he was second in the HS team pitching rotation to Jerry Colangelo! It's twue, it's twue!

First game of the double-header is in the books. Red Sox win 11-3. Timlin pitches 2 scoreless innings of relief (which should earn him a couple days off, according to Jerry Remy ) and Beckett picks up his 16th win of the season, which leads the bigs.

Clemens pitches tonight in Detroit. Detroit needs to win some games, so they're going to be tough.

From the looks of the radar, they better hurry and get the second game started.

Did you hear about the blonde who got fired from working on the M&M quality control line? She threw out all the W's.

The White Sox look like they're not even trying anymore in some games. Kinda makes you wonder if Ozzie has gone by his Past Due date.

Garland looked pretty good through 7, except for one bad inning in the 4th. He came out for the 8th and looked done, then the bullpen imploded. Okajima did his usual great job and Timlin looked pretty good for the BoSox. Chicago had a couple guys on against Timlin, but couldn't do anything with them.

I hope Papelbon has a chance for the save tonight.

Unfortunately, this season is a bust for my White Sox. The only high point is the performance of Bobby Jenks. Of course that means the Sox will probably trade him.
