sox came back in the 9th inning last night and actually won.

By the way, anyone see Kevin Youkilis charge the mound last night?:r

Yes...is it just me or did Porcello get the better of him? Porcello threw him to the ground, not the other way around. The whole helmet throwing thing was unclassy, at best. There is etiquette in mound charging...drop the bat, keep the helmet on or get rid of it (crazy not to keep it on) and throw some fisti-cuffs ( you gonna get suspended anyways, make it worth while...LOL!!). But Porcello went towards the first base side (Sox dugout)...he should have gone towards the third base side. Brandon Inge did have a nice assisted tackle though...LOL!!! I see them both getting 5-10 games suspension for their actions.

Porcello held his own. Youk throwing the helmet was def unclassy, I think that will be reflected in the suspension he gets.

Glad I stayed up and watched the ninth. Was considering turning it off since they were 0-49 when trailing after the eigth, ouch.

What'd you think of the Alex Rios aquisition? I'm glad we didn't have to give anything up for him besides his salary. Should allow some of the vets to get a few days off here and there or if Quentin goes down again.

Right you are, Michael - he should have pulled a Pedro there in Fenway. Martinez was infamous for mouthing off, plunking batters, starting fights, then running into his dugout to hide behind the big boys. :r

And yeah, both players got a five-game hook from the Commish.

Yankees win 4-3 in 11. :banger

Oh, and both Jeets and A-Rod got plunked, and nobody started a brawl. Guess you have to be a BoSox to have the right to plunk yet not GET plunked.

I think we are in good shape as far the salary is concerned. Rios is due about 70million over the next 5 years I think. It definately complicates the outfield for us, but with CQ injury prone, Rios could take his spot. I would hate to see Pods or JD leave. We have a some guys with contracts that end next year, so who knows what will happen.

That they did. Missed most of the game (traveling again) but caught the highlights. CC pitched great and Matsui was a beast! :banger

David Wright placed on the 15 day DL, and may possibly be out for the season. Mets are finished for the year.

That was a hard hit he took off the head. Hopefully he will be healthy soon.
