Start off with an Ichiro flyout

[Fishercat]

Lopez flew out deep to the Monster, the wind likely brought that from being (at least) a wallball double, with Ibanez getting robbed by YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUK

[Fishercat]

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUK walks.

[Fishercat]

Ibanez losses a quasi-wallball in the wind, with Loretta (BARELY) making it into 2nd on a sweet slide

[Fishercat]

Papi pops up to Beltre

[Fishercat]

As of today, Manny has the lowest BA in the entire lineup that contains Wily Mo (hitting a nice >.300) and Alex Gonzalez

[Fishercat]

On WEEI (Boston Sports Radio), they have Sean McAdam reporting that Trot expects to start tommorow. I still like Wily/Whiffy Mo Pena. But Trot's back

Manny drives in a run on...a weak grounder to Sexson

[Fishercat]

WOAH! Beltre makes a nice stabbing play, throws to Sexson who...supposedly..missed Varitek, and the replay shows he CLEARLY (CLEARLY!) tagged Tek for the third out, and it kind of looks like Tek didn't tag first as well. Wow, that's some craptastic calling.

[Fishercat]

And Varitek (wtf) steals 2nd

[MarinersFan87]

I don't get how the ump missed that one. It wasn't even a tag on his back, it was right in front of the ump. Ugh.

[Fishercat]

This time (like last time) Beltre throws out the runner.

[Fishercat]

Sexson lines it to Manny for a single

[Fishercat]

Couple notes

On Patriots day, Jerry gets to break out the "Buenas Dias", or Good Morning, for his only time this year

And LENNY (and Carl) Dinardo gets the ball to start against the Meche led M's
