In Response to Re: Game thread 8/7/11: Garcia VS Beckett:In Response to Re: Game thread 8/7/11: Garcia VS Beckett : actually J-Bay I moved to North California & Fox decided I didn't watch to watch the game yesterday. I got to watch the Giants lose instead of the yanks. My son is 1 1/2 now so I don't have as much time to hang out here until he's asleep, thanks for caring though.

If Gardner was playing foranyone else besides the Yankees you would not know who he is. -

Now's when the tack one on, and we end up losing 3-2 after pushing what would have been the tying run across against Mo in the ninth. -

How the heck can a 9 inning 2-1 game be over 4 hours long? -

Anyone else thought that ball was headed to New Hampshire? (Or wherever state is that direction?). -

3 outs against rivera to get a run or two preferably, a leadoff double would be great here. -

It's now or never. Inexplicably, they've been hitting like women most of the night. Hopefully they use the purse with the brick in it this inning.

Posted by TheExamineraccording to Valentine & Hersh it's cuz Beckett & Paps take 30 seconds between each pitch though the rule books says they're only allowed 12. -

OK, we've got Scutaro, who's having a good night at the plate, followed by Ellsbury, who has left the populations of Broxton on base tonight, and then Petey. Let's go!!! -

I cannot fault him on that. he was trying to stay out of the double play there. But he will not due it again after what happened tonight, thats the way he is. He said it himself after that suicde squeeze debacle with Kansas City.In Response to Re: Game thread 8/7/11: Garcia VS Beckett:francona also killed this game when he tried to steal second with pedroia and a- gon at bat, with 1 out i believe.

what part of 'the game was not on here' don't you get dude? sox destroyed the yanks yesterday. do you need me here to validate that? I don't show up here & talk sh1t, so what exactly is your problem? I have some friends on here & some of them are sox fans & I like to see what people are saying when I can. If my presence offends you in some way just hit the old 'ignore' button & your problem is solved. -

After what I have seen so far , there is no way we score against Rivera in the ninth. Sox have come up totally flat in a battle for first against the hated enemy. At Fenway, this is just very disappointing. Absolutely no clutch hitting. There is no way to just write this off. Sox have got to step it up in the clutch. -
