I'm about ready to order my daughter back to town. She's been down south for two weeks visiting her school for the Fall and her (please, oh, please ex-)boyfriend in GA.
Since she left, we nearly got swept by the DRays, did well against the ChiSox (if you ignore that last "game" which they claimed was extra innings, because you all know the p-bomb did not blow that save), got our asses handed to us by the A's and then struggled against KC. She needs to get back here now! And if the Sox are doing well in late August, she just may have to skip her Freshman year because the Sox can't handle her not being in town!
As soon as I saw the Mirabelli HR, I thouht of you. You are in for some shit! 
Enjoy the game.
I think we pretty much all thought this game was another one in the "L" column. Let's just all thank the home plate umpire for making that hideous strike call. And thank Douglas for being awesome.
Nonetheless. To quote any player on the face of the earth at this time in the season, "There's still a lot of baseball to be played." So hopefully we can get something done by the trade deadline and get some damn pitching.
Yes, looking for pitching would be good, but I hope the 'dumpster-diving' method will change.
Dougie = Stud Bombs.
The most hysterical part of last night's game and the Mirabelli Miracle was when my bestest baseball friend calls me to say, "I bet The Rick just called Basegirl to give her s**t." I mean, come on, she called to tell me the father of someone I don't know was going to call this person that I don't know to give her the business and I LAUGHED AND AGREED!
Keep writing. I love your site!
//"I bet The Rick just called Basegirl to give her s**t."//
Indeed he did. I feel so famous!
ALTHOUGH I HAVE JUST LEARNED THAT MY BROTHER, SELF-PROCLAIMED "WORLD'S BIGGEST DOUG MIRABELLI FAN" DID NOT SEE THE GAME AND WAS NOT EVEN AWARE OF DOUGIE'S HEROICS UNTIL I MENTIONED IT THIS MORNING.
I believe this means I am NOT contractually obligated to take his shit.
Can I get a ruling on this?
If your brother provides me with grilled meats this weekend, it's going to be a tough call.
No shit taking from Kevin. Even I managed to stay awake and watch the whole game and I don't usually make it past 9:15. I turned to Big Mike and said 'Kristen's brother must be psyched’ and he didn't even see it? Knowing that Wake was pitching? There will be no taking of any shit.
Right "up there" with the best moment of the game, was Papi stealing seond, and Manny and Youk's reaction from the dugout.
Priceless!
SEE WHAT I SAID ABOUT THE ROYALS. Mmmhmm.
And that photo is highly disturbing for some reason.
Yep, the ruling is, 'No Sh*t from Kevin,' if he can't even watch the game his boy is catching and hitting in.
I also agree...Papi stealing second. That's the coolest thing I've seen in a loooong time.
Though it may mean that Armageddon is nigh.
"...and the behemoth DH shall steal second, great shall be the tumult therefrom," I should think.

I am duly chastised, Samara.
