I noticed last night that baseball is a game of many 3s. Everyone knows you get 3 strikes and each team gets 3 outs per inning. But there’s also 3 x 3 innings per game 3 x 3 defensive men are on the field a time There are 3 x 10 ft between bases Bases …
innings spent waiting to buy hot dogs: 1.5 number of hot dogs purchased: 0 number of churros eaten: 2 number of pretzels eaten: 2 row number of the seats on our ticket stubs: 34 row we sat in from the 8th inning on: 17 game attendance: 36,067 runs scored: 3 runs scored by the Red …
I’m really amazed at how intact the 2007 Red Sox are so far with less than 2 months to spring training. Not a single key player is left to sign and only a couple that got regular playing time in 2007 have been let go. I took the 25-man World Series roster and added a …
Here’s my long personal reflection on the 2007 Red Sox and me. It’s been an incredible year and one that I will remember for a very long time. The Pre-season The 2007 Season of the Boston Red Sox started for me last December. We had already booked a cruise with my parents for March, which …
The Red Sox starting pitching couldn’t make it through 5 innings for the 3rd game in a row. They had 7 runs scored against them in a single inning AGAIN. All of this makes for a very grumpy Boulter household. This affects even the simplest of things, like dinner. Anne asks what I want for …
.300. That’s the Boston Red Sox record (9 wins 21 losses) in August. How sad. Needless to say, .300 is the worst record of any major league team this august. The team with the worst record this year, the Kansas City Royals, still has a .363 record for the season. They won tonight, but only …
The Red Sox have been winning lately, but they seem to be running out of pitchers. They have 4 on the disabled list: M. Clement SP Jun 15 15-day Right shoulder strain K. Foulke RP Jun 12 15-day Right elbow tendinitis D. Wells SP May 27 15-day Right knee soreness L. DiNardo SP/RP May 22 …
It looks like Mike Lowell, now with the Red Sox, is the only player in the last two years to successfully execute the hidden ball trick. He’s done it twice. I’ve got my MLB.TV subscription going, so go for it Mike! I want to see the look on that base runner’s face when he finds …
Last week Anne and I realized it was September and we still hadn’t seen a Giants game yet this year. People are often selling them at work, so I grabbed a pair for $50: lower box near the leftfield corner. We debated whether or not to take Caltrain to the game. We’ve tried driving and …
What’s this? It’s a baseball game. It’s a Red Sox game. It’s on my TV. But it’s a Thursday night and they aren’t playing a local team and I don’t have a satellite dish. This is amazing. Lately I’ve been getting annoyed that I couldn’t watch all but the rarest Red Sox game here on …
