Believe in Big Papi, homer and 2 run single in the same inning last night. Hope springs eternal.

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

Sox took 2 of 3 from Marlins, rain shortened third game precluded a comeback. Oh well, Braves up next and then the Nationals. I'm heading down to DC for vacation next week and plan on seeing the game Wednesday.

I expect it will be a week without sitting in front of a computer. I'll check in after vacation.

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

The game should have never been played.
The Sox just wanted to sell hot dogs and beer? To make people sit two hours in the rain is BS, no excuse for that they knew the rain was coming.
Mike Lowell was not to happy in the interview on NESN. plus they lost the game :(

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

How about the Yankess & Nats last night..rain delay for 5 1/2 hours!!!

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

You're right, neither the Sox nor Yankees games should have been played last night. I believe though that the decision to play or not is in the umpire's hands. Not to say that they as representatives of MLB are not just as greedy.

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

The decision of whether or not to start the game is in the hands of the home team ownership (John Henry, Hank Werner). Once the game is started, continuance of the game or stoppage is up to the umpires. In this case, I feel that Red Sox ownership screwed up and the game should never have been started. Hope that this information helps. :tu The ownership group could have and should have called the game at about 3 pm Boston time but greed wins every time.

Yankees are winning!!

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

Sox are getting hammed, Dice-K blows another game, I hope we have seen the last of him?

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

The Yankees beat the Mets 5-0 tonight. The Mets managed 1 hit!!

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

We need to do what that Nats did...send everyone down to AAA and bring those kids up!!! They can't do any worse!!

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

The injury bug is really hurting the Mets also right now.

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

The Mets are almost guarenteed a win tomorrow night with Wang starting.

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

He pitched ok his last start. Wasn't pretty, but definitely an improvement over where he was. And the Mets just look bad right now.

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

And the Yankees sweep the Mets :D

Thanks for rubbing it in Ryan!!!

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

No problem. I defiantely hope the Mets can get some healthy players soon. I am always waiting for a rematch of 2000.

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

Mike Lowell is headed to the DL for the Red Sox.

The Yankees made a trade for Eric Hinske.

Re: *2009 MLB Thread*
 

And what are they gonna use Eric Hinske for? They already have Matsui that they are not using!!
