i am talking about the hissing of the stitches when someone that far away can show you what is what.

Should I root for the NL so that when the Sox inevitably sweep the World Series, they can finally do so at home?
KIDDING!
I'm actually rooting for Tim Wakefield to pitch an inning to poor Victor Martinez. It's the only reason to watch this game.
Posted by: Paul SF | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 05:47 PM
Every year I convince my self that I'm not gong to watch this, but I always do. I guess I'm a sucker and this is as close to Red Sox methadone I can get.
Posted by: LocklandSF | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 06:13 PM
A little Lester's Sonia Dada for your methadone fix.
Posted by: attackgerbil | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 06:25 PM
No matter who has to catch Wake, that will be the high comedy of the evening. They'll have to follow Uecker's advice to wait until it stops rolling and pick it up. I think we may all appreciate Kotteras a bit more after tonight.

i've already got v-mart penciled in the sox lineup a week and a half from now, so seeing him catch the knuckler might be a nice try out.
Posted by: sf rod | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 07:21 PM
Along with the Sonia Dada, while we are waiting for baseball, do a youtube search for some Victor Wooten soloing Amazing Grace.
Posted by: attackgerbil | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 08:05 PM
I am on vacation out west, it is only 545, and still I am thinking GET THIS GAME GOING FOR HECK'S SAKE. This pre-game is interminable.
Posted by: SF | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 08:44 PM
Wow, did half the park just boo Obama? Was not expecting that.
Posted by: LocklandSF | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 08:45 PM
It is pathetic that anyone has an All Star record of "8-0-1". Thanks Bud.
Posted by: SF | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 08:48 PM
Minor observation: image of Saarinen's arch
looks better in foreshortened perspective than from the blimp. Probably by design.
Posted by: SF | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 08:49 PM
Well, Lincecum was underwhelming to start with.
Posted by: rootbeerfloat | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 10:08 PM
Just got home, somewhat happy to see us not losing by a lot. Bring Beckett in and let him kick some f*cking ass!
Posted by: Atheose | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 10:29 PM
OH YEAH SON, Papelbon for the 7th inning.
aaaaaand he almost gives up a homer on the first pitch. THANK YOU CRAWFORD!
Posted by: Atheose | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 10:34 PM
Papelbon owes Crawford a coke!

This is a ridiculously anti-Selig remark about something that has nothing to do with Bud Selig. Recession? Bud Selig's fault! Patriots miss the playoffs? Blame Selig. Asteroid destroys all life on earth? Selig at work once again.
Posted by: Atheose | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 10:44 PM
Fox and Tim McCarver are seriously baiting YFSF right now.
Posted by: FenSheaParkway | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 10:50 PM
Nathan in for the 8th, Mo presumably saved for the 9th. Maddon giving him the respect he deserves.
Posted by: Atheose | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 10:56 PM
Didn't Missouri go for McCain? I'm too lazy to look it up.
Posted by: I'mBillMcNeal | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:07 PM
You mean the respect Paps didn't give him, ath?
Posted by: I'mBillMcNeal | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:09 PM
Evidently 22 wins between Bex and Wakes wasn't enough to convince Joe Maddon to give either some All-Star face time.
Posted by: Hudson | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:22 PM
We're not going to rehash how everyone blew Papelbon's comments last year out of proportion, are we? ;-)
Ballgame. Wakefield and Beckett both rested, and home field advantage ours if we make it.
Posted by: Atheose | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:22 PM
Paps gets the win! YES!
MVP! MVP! MVP!
Posted by: I'mBillMcNeal | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:23 PM
Hudson, be glad they're rested!
The last time a Red Sox won the All Star game? WE WON THE WORLD SERIES! I like this trend.
Posted by: Atheose | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:24 PM
McCain barely won Missouri -- by 1/10th of 1% (0.12%).
Posted by: Hudson | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:25 PM
Another historic milestone for Mo with his 4th ASG save. As if he wasn't already the greatest closer ever.
Posted by: AndrewYF | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:27 PM
OK. Only the Republicans could afford the tickets to the game.
Posted by: I'mBillMcNeal | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:28 PM
Crawford gets the MVP.
Chris Rose says, "Obviously, that was a game-saving catch."
Obviously? Really?
Wasn't obvious to me. Could have gone either way.
Posted by: I'mBillMcNeal | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:29 PM
I didn't want them to play, Hud. They need the rest. And Maddon was probably saving Wakes, just in case of another Selig.
Posted by: I'mBillMcNeal | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:31 PM
So... why do we have to wait 3 more days for regular baseball again?
Posted by: Atheose | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:31 PM
Mo gives Obama his props for asking him about his cutter.
I like that.
Posted by: I'mBillMcNeal | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:38 PM
Speaking of which, is there a sensible reason why there are 6 NL games on Thursday and 2 AL games? It would be nice if there were league-wide four-game series after the ASB.
Posted by: FenSheaParkway | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:42 PM
A nice catch by Future Yankee Crawford. The Yankees could soon have a Crawford AND an Austin on their team. Then all they'll need is Dallas McPherson, Huston "Houston" Street, and Jayson "Fort" Werth. It can be done!
Posted by: AndrewYF | Tuesday, July 14, 2009 at 11:56 PM
And how could I forget the namesake himself, Mark "Tex" Teixeira. We're definitely on to something here. Maybe they can even pull David Waco (http://tinyurl.com/l2lytv) out of retirement, just for kicks.
Posted by: AndrewYF | Wednesday, July 15, 2009 at 12:00 AM
it's sad when halladay only gives up like 2 runs in 9 innings and the offense can't even do their part?
Posted by: Gabriel Celibataire | Wednesday, July 15, 2009 at 04:47 AM
I can't tell if the above comment is serious or a joke!
Andrew, please do not say such things about Crawford. It's bad enough that Kazmir will be a Yankee soon, but I couldn't handle rooting against a Yankee team filled with cities from my home state!
Posted by: Atheose | Wednesday, July 15, 2009 at 08:03 AM
Ath, the way Kazmir is going, the Mets will probably sign him for way too much money ala Oliver Perez, thus completing the circle of ineptitude that is that organization in the most hilarious fashion.
