Very nice! But somehow I suspect that ain't gonna get 'er in the gate ;)

Sox spanked the Yanks again with an outstanding outing for Lester and some timely hitting by the team. Actually a fairly lop-sided game, considering NY could only eek out three hits. Too bad it was carried by Faux, no post-game show to watch.

Going for the sweep tomorrow - after paying homage to Rivera (who deserves the honor, as much as he's been a pita for our side over the years) - even though of all the teams we might face first in the playoffs, the Yankees might be the easiest to walk over...

Cheers!

The thing about Mo is... I've got a ton of respect for everything he's done for years and years, but I haven't ever been especially afraid when he's come into the game for the Yanks. He's blown a ton of saves against Boston, more than against anyone else. You'd kind of expect that because of how often they face him, but still... you remember 2004. In total, he's converted 89% of save opportunities in his career (651 saves, 80 blown saves). Against Boston, it's 78% (58 saves, but 16 blown saves).

His career ERA is 2.12; against Boston, 2.86.

Career BAA; .212. Against Boston, .243.

WHIP for his career is 1.00, but against Boston it's 1.25.

It's still good numbers that he's had against Boston, but they're good numbers - not phenomenal.

He's no Koji Uehara against us, you know?

All that may be true but I'm still glad to see him go. Saying "We have a marginably better chance to come back against the best closer in years than most other teams do." is whistling past the graveyard.

Hes been a fantastic talent and a gentleman for years. He'll be missed.
 
So on the same night that Beantown showers Rivera with much love, the fans bust out with a lusty round of "Yankees SUCK!!!" in the bottom of the fifth when Ortiz gets walked to load the bases.

Love it :)

Then the soon-to-be-ex-starting-pitcher hits Karp in the leg to walk in a run.

Love that, too! :D

Cheers!
