RedSox/Yankees

Well the Yankees won game two, and then game three. The real news was in game three's bull rush attempt by don zimmer (DON ZIMMER!?!?!) at Pedro Martinez. I guess he was mad at Pedro throwing at Karim Garcias head. From what I have seen and heard KArim was ducking from a pitch and fouled the ball off. The umpires knew it was a foul ball and called it that, but then decided to award him first base ON A FOUL BALL!!!! Of course they did. Heaven forbid they actually earn it. That is such BS that it is hard to comprehend.

Anyways, I am curious to see what happens with the summons to NElson and Garcia. Apparently that kid in the bullpen got beat up pretty bad. As soon as i found out he wasnt some looney jumping into the bullpen, i joined his side. If he had jumped into the bullpen I would be all for kickign the crap out of him. I found it quite amusing that Garcia hurt his hand(early reports are that he had a baseball in his hand and he was punching the kid with that ball and hand. Lack of self control by Nelson seems to be the reason for this. Obvioulsy he thought he coudl do what he wanted because he was protected baseball player. I am curious to see what happens from this. Criminal charges MAY apply but it will be interesting to see what becomes of this as it will impact player/fan relationships in the future possibly in a way that I am not excited about. More on that as it developes.


Apparently Game 5 is tongiht, becasue I have to go to tongihts game, even though the series is at 2-1. Interesting. Anyways, its better for me because this game means more. Though I know my buddy the yankees fan, Mike Brennan, was hoping that he would get to see a yankees clinching game.ha ha. This postponement works out well for the Sox as they don't have to pithc burkett yet and get to go with wakefiled and lowe(in Fenway where he is better!) in games 4+5 (as opposed to burkett and wakefield in 4+5 and Lowe in yankees stadium in game 6). All of this and Pedro in game 7. Nice.

Well, Time for this Cowboy up to prepare for the game tongiht.

Enjoy!
