			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><a href="http://lydia69.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/t1_matsuzaka2.jpg" title="Dice-k"><img src="http://lydia69.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/t1_matsuzaka2.thumbnail.jpg" alt="Dice-k" /></a></p>
<p>Well Dice-k is warming up, playing toss with Yuk down the first base line.  He looks calm and cool.  It is 7:15pm and the Sox just took the field.</p>
<p>The flashes are going off like crazy.  It&#8217;s amazing.  I would love to be there but I think I&#8217;ll see more of the game from here.</p>
<p><strong>Inning 1</strong></p>
<p>Dice-K vs. Ichiro!  Will Dice K be as good as Beckett.  Breaking ball strike 1.    Curve ball fouled off  the count 0-2.   It&#8217;s a full count.  Nice, Ichro gets thrown out.  The inning was a good first inning.  18 pitche, 11 for strikes.</p>
<p>The shift is on for Big Papi.  And Big Papi hits into it.  That was a quick first inning.</p>
<p><strong> Inning 2</strong></p>
<p>The first out was quick.  But Guillian works the count and gets a long single.  (He knew better than to challenge Manny&#8217;s throw).  Johjima just hit a double.  Good thing Manny kept Guillian to a single.   *sigh*  Guillian almost got taged out at home but he was barely safe.  1-0 Sea.  Atleast we have two outs now.  Now can the Sox score a run to tie it?  32 pitches, 20 for strikes.  I know, it&#8217;s only the 2nd inning.  It&#8217;s now 7:40pm.</p>
<p>Ok guys that way to work the count. Hernandez is up to 20 pitches 13 for strikes.  Ok, I have Hernandez.  He doesn&#8217;t suck.  In fact he&#8217;s given me 7 points.  Oh it&#8217;s soooo much fun to see my batters against my pitcher.</p>
<p><strong>Inning 3</strong><br />
Ichiro is up again.   Ichiro flies out.  &#8220;Did you see that routine catch that CoCo made?&#8221;<a href="http://lydia69.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/coco.jpg" title="Did you see the catch that Coco made?"><img src="http://lydia69.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/coco.thumbnail.jpg" alt="Did you see the catch that Coco made?" /></a></p>
<p>No, it didn&#8217;t look like that but it was better than Dice-k&#8217;s former team. Well another pop up to Lugo.  And it&#8217;s a K for dice-K!!!  42 Pitches 26 for strikes.    Looks like Matsuzaka is settling down.</p>
<p>The announcers were saying how the Japanese reporters were so intersted in all things Red Sox.  This included what famous players had Dice-k&#8217;s locker before him and where was Babe Ruth&#8217;s locker.  I actually believe that Dice-K pitching for the Sox is a lower pressure situation than he had in Japan.</p>
<p>V-Tek is 35 today! <a href="http://lydia69.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/maea106_blue_jays_red_s2.jpg" title="V-tek and Mike Lowell"><img src="http://lydia69.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/maea106_blue_jays_red_s2.thumbnail.jpg" alt="V-tek and Mike Lowell" /></a>   Well he stuck out his first at bat.  He&#8217;ll do something next time &#8230;I hope.  Dustin works a full count.  wOOt Dustin Walks!  It&#8217;s Lugo time!!!   Maybe not&#8230;.it&#8217;s  1- 0 Sea, 39   pitches24 for strikes. That&#8217;s what I call working the count.</p>
<p>Inning 4</p>
<p>Well, Dice-K is back.  Ibanez works a full count&#8230;and strikes out.  Strike out #2.</p>
<p>Anyways&#8230;..the elimination for American Idol is in an hour.  So you have to bear with my game&#8230;oh wOOt Strike out #3.  Guillian is up again.  He&#8217;s 1 for 1 with a single.  Hit by Pitch.  He so reminds me of Pedro.  That was a better inning.  58 pitches, 35 strikes</p>
<p>Youk Walks!!  Go Big Papi!!!!   Double play. *sigh*  Let&#8217;s go Manny!  50 pitches, 29 for strikes.  The Sox have been no hit though 4 innings.</p>
<p>Inning 5</p>
<p>Ichiro strike out #4!!!  Well then.  Lopez scores from first on a wall ball.  Beltre is on 3d base.  Vidro his a line drive and Beltre scores.  3-0, 73 pitches 43 for strikes.</p>
<p>Not a bad outing if the Sox&#8217;s bats can wake up.  So far the Sox aren&#8217;t even working the count.  Well now.  Gee&#8230;I wonder how many points i have now.  14 thus far.  Go me.  Now it is up to V-Tek.  Captain my captain.</p>

<p>Not yet.  The Sox are hitless in Fenway.  62-37.</p>
<p><strong>Inning 6 (it&#8217;s 30 mins. to American Idol)</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;Let&#8217;s live for the wonder of it all!  Foxwoods&#8221;</p>
<p>My catcher is on second base.  Well this is an interesting development&#8212;no? But no harm done.  3-0 Sea.  89-57.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s get it started!  Let&#8217;s get it started in Fenway!!  We can&#8217;t be no-hit at home.  That&#8217;s just inconceivable.</p>
<p>Ok,  it is a great time for a hit Coco!  Well that&#8217;s 14 points for me.  Still Hitless, 3-0 Sea, 71-42.  <strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong> It&#8217;s the 7h Inning (15 mins to American Idol)</strong></p>
<p>He got into a bit of trouble but excellent defense by Dice-K got him out of the inning with out further damage.  3-0 Sea, 103-64.</p>
<p>YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUK.  Let&#8217;s go Red Sox.  So close&#8230;&#8230;.Ok big Papi.  If there were any time for a home run, now is the time.  No time like right now?  Ok, later.   Manny!!!!  Manny!!! Manny come on and be MANNY!  Well then, still hitless.  85-51.</p>
<p>Well I am out of here.  I&#8217;ll check the score later.  Hopefully Dice-K will get a no decision.</p>

What is the deal with giving JD Drew #7????   That is unreal.
That was a disappointing game.  *sigh*  I picked up Meche for the Redwings.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Well, I am thinking of using this as my blog about sox games.  Although I still like livejournal because of the easy at which I can add pictures.  What makes my during game blogging are the photos.  Of course I borrow heavily from dirt dogs.  Why re-invent the wheel? </p>
<p> An interesting side affect is that I post comments to Curt Schilling&#8217;s blog at 38studios.com  The only time I was uber critical of Curt Schilling was when he made comments about the 2004 election after the Sox won the world series.  That&#8217;s water under the bridge. </p>
<p> There is not much to post.  I&#8217;m still in Germany until Sunday.  I do have my parent&#8217;s sling box hooked up.  I did catch a spring training game but for some reason the show &#8220;I love New York&#8221; kept my attention.  I was hoping Bronson would have been pitching for the Reds but no deal.  Bronson might be a red through and through and that does make me blue.  Still I love seeing St. Bronson god of high kicking pitchers pitch.  I am so thrilled that he is in a place where he can be an ace.  <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>In other news: I&#8217;m on this 70&#8217;s music kick.  Darn you Happy Feet with your cute penguins and catchy 1970&#8217;s dance music.  I have been playing the sound track nonstop since I bought it.  </p>
