Yoooooooooooooks

Holy hell, how have the Sox only scored two runs in 31 2/3 innings? TWO RUNS??? Honestly, I know we’re on a five game losing streak, but how the fuck are you supposed to win games with an offense like that. Plus, we’ve got Lester going against Halladay, so you know you’ve got to score more than that…wait, what? The second of those two runs was a walk-off single by Youks? Uhhh, never mind, who needs an offense!?

On a less sarcastic note, the win wouldn’t have been possible without the amazing play of Dustin to end the top of the 9th and keep the game scoreless (to that point Lester and Paps had pitched 8 2/3 innings allowing only two hits). As Vernon Wells put it, “I saw it get by the mound and I saw Superman at second base.” I never realized that Superman was 5′5″.

Every time Pedroia makes a great defensive play or gets a clutch hit you can read his lips as he claps his hands and says “fuck yeah!” Well, this was certainly a “fuck yeah” play. So I figure, let’s keep a tally of Pedey’s FY plays this season. So far we’re at two (see April 20th). I’ll keep the running tally in the sidebar.
