Saito was probably pretty tired

I’m thinking he might have been TRYING to pitch around him, but cocked it up

How often does it happen

Guy makes a big defensive play and then comes up fourth in the bottom of the inning and gets a big hit.

I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.

It's not a BS call, it was a stupid rule.

And I’m really glad they won, because if they lost, this site would be running rampant with about a million people acting a million times stupider then this while expressing the same opinion about how the umps hate the Rays and how they should all be fired for making this call.

As soon as I saw it happen I knew it was a dead ball and I just hung my head because I knew the team was fucked. Here’s another good reason for a new stadium. Get the bullpens out of the field of play so this shit doesn’t happen.

I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.

Favorite part of the replay

Longoria turning to the bench right after he swung the bat and putting his fist in the air. Basically saying, “Yeah, I knew I was gonna do that, now get out here and worship me.”

by untexan on Aug 5, 2009 1:04 AM EDT reply actions  

Great game

The crowd was intense. Tons of Red Sox fans. Actually 4 RS fans got in a fight right in front of us. It was kind of hilarious in a sad way.

The game was full of ups and downs. Our offense just lacks the fundamentals. I’m glad we have quite a bit of talent to make up for it. Obviously I wasn’t a fan of how Maddon managed this game. He made quite a few baffling decisions. BJ Upton just doesn’t look good at the plate. I’m not sure how he can be late on pitches this often. He played great in the field, as did Crawford. Navarro sucks the cock as usual. Dillon stepped up.

Oh don’t forget Garza pitched a pretty damn good game too

Can David Ortiz please send Dioner Navarro some of his PED's? K? Thanks

by matthan on Aug 5, 2009 1:47 AM EDT reply actions  

Yep BJ always looks lost at the plate but we need him for his defense

I bet if he just didn’t swing at anything he’d walk a lot more and his OBP would skyrocket.

Red Sox calling up bullpen help for today

http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2009/08/05/bullpen_needs_some_relief/

I wish they had really exhausted Papelbum—I’m sure he can pitch today.

We need to get to Penny FAST.

And keep them off Price.

This was a fan comment on the article about the goofy play last night on raysbaseball.com
The rays standing is 5th. in total AL.The rays ont only defeat yankees and red sox in east,but also has to defeat Angels and Rangers.this four team’s ability are belonged to top in AL.i think division title’s competitors obviously are redsox and NY. wildcard would be Angels ,Rangers ,redox,NY,four of them will fight in the last months.Central’s standing is lower than west and east.so wildcard will be belonged to west and east.one of these four teams probably be a competitor in wildcards with Rays.

The full post is even better
Yeah this one hurt. A lot. Something about the Rays and whenever we lose to them makes me want to punch infants. I mean I really get sour and rude. You just don’t give a guy like Longoria a HR cuz with him that only leads him to hope he’s gonna have a good day. Shoulda left Lester in a little longer and allowed all the other RP’s pitch before Pap. Why can’t they just go back to being doormats? Let’s hope we walk outta there with a respectable split…

So long, Sweet Lime!

Over the Monster has their own Raymondo/Matthan hybrid
WTF
Come on! Other bum mental break down vs Rays! Cant solve Garza! Do your damn homework on video! What is Boston hitting coach doing! Fired him! I am glad Lester does great job! Rest of you hitter! Wake up!

"Punch infants."

Gotta love those Saaaawx fans. By the way, sour and rude as opposed to what: the polite demeanor they normally exude.

by Deepdoodle on Aug 5, 2009 10:55 AM EDT up reply actions  

Just a random thought

The 10 K Pozza promotion being done by Kane’s and Pappa Johns would have gone broke, if they allow the visiting team to play

by Raymondo on Aug 5, 2009 8:27 AM EDT reply actions  

Listening to Maddon's postgame press conference on the radio on the way home

He asked how many K’s their pitchers had and some dumb chick reporter said like 10 and then somebody else just chimed in “Umm. Over 14.” It was prtty hilarious actually.

Half of what I say is meaningless

But I say it just to reach you, Longooooooooooooooriia

Longooooooooooooooriia, oceanchild, calls me
So I sing a song of love, Longooooooooooooooriia
Longooooooooooooooriia, seashell eyes, windy smile, calls me
So I sing a song of love, Longooooooooooooooriia

His hair of floating sky is shimmering, glimmering
In the sun

Longooooooooooooooriia, morning moon, touch me
So I sing a song of love, Longooooooooooooooriia

When I cannot sing my heart
I can only speak my mind, Longooooooooooooooriia

Longooooooooooooooriia, sleeping sand, silent cloud, touch me
So I sing a song of love, Longooooooooooooooriia
Hum hum hum hum… calls me
So I sing a song of love for Longooooooooooooooriia

So long, Sweet Lime!
