ALDS Game 1: Bottom 6

The Sports Chick — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 03:47:04 +0000

10:41 Kendrick leads off the bottom of the 6th and reaches–Youk may have been the victom of another bad call. Francona argues emphatically. Replays make it look like Youkilis had him but the throw from Lowell was undeniably terrible. He’d deserve the error anyway, if you could even do that.

10:42 A perfect bunt on the first pitch Mathis sees, as the Angels switch to small ball, which of course is their traditional strength.

10:44 Aybar grounds out and Youk and Lowell put it away this time. 2 down.

10:45 This is Lester’s last time through the lineup, right? …Right?

10:46 Ellsbury makes SportsCenter recording out #3. On we go. But no more bananas. Cause now we’re sleepy.

ALDS Gm 2: Bottom 2

You can tell this game is boring so far, because none of the applicable topics are trending on Twitter. In favor of The Office and Miley Cyrus. The first we’re fine with, but the second? eesh. We fear for American culture.

9:11 First of what might be many Lester Ks if the Angels keep swinging at balls just off the plate. Lester’s ability to throw almost whatever he wants in any count (sort of the way Dice-K was one supposed to), is what makes him great.

9:12 A Kendry Morales-announcer lovefest is interrupted only briefly by the fact the he flies out with little fanfare.

9:14 Sloppy swing, miss, throw to first play, but Kendrick’s out, and we soldier on.
