Did that REALLY just happen?

Yeah bud: I can't believe it either. The Sox just beat the Indians 1-0, with Youk scoring the only run and Lowell driving him in.

What a pitchers duel: Daisuke goes 7, with OKJ and Pap taking care of the 8th and 9th for the Sox.

Meanwhile, CC Sabathia and his crooked hat matched Matsuzaka pitch for pitch, with a couple of trapped balls being the difference. If I were just a casual fan, this would have been a great game to watch. As someone with a vested interest in the game, I need some Maloxx: STAT.

Just a classic game across the board, with near-misses and great defensive plays making up the difference: bottom line though, is a win is a win is a win. Doesn't matter if you win by 1 or by 10, it counts the same. Thankfully, the Sox came out on top in this one.

Beckett goes for win number 14 tomorrow: and not to toot my own horn, but go back to the first ever post at RedSoxDad and take a peek:

I called this year back in December: my next pet is getting named Beckett.

  3. Ted we are reading each others minds....I really swear this. I was thinking this week after I saw Beckett's win at Fenway...what a cool name a son's name would be or a pet's name to be named Beckett.

    I am NOT lying I pinky swear!!! course I aint gonna have no more kids. I got me a Beckett shirt now :)

  4. Hey Nancy!

    Yeah, I've been informed that my brood will be limited to three:

    However, I think another trip to Red Lobster and I could have a third son named Beckett.

    Sadly, this is all just wishfull thinking on my part: I'm afraid to broach the subject. My wife has a mean streak.

    Thank you for commenting: I've been jealous of Miles all this time!

  8. You obviously forget that I'm reading this blog. Your wife does NOT have a mean streak.

    And, I don't think 20 trips to Red Lobster will get you another child.:)

    However, Beckett is a VERY cool name. Maybe Matt could use it if they have a son someday......

  9. Sis, c'mon. You know my wife. There is NO WAY she would go for naming our children after any ballplayer. I can't even get "Patrick" after the great Patrick Roy (hockey-nerd. sorry) up for consideration. Looks like the only Beckett in the family will be Ted's next goldfish.

  11. Stacy, I have my ways: how do you think I married her: My good looks and winning personality?

    Hockey nerd, hockey nerd! Though the name Patrick is pretty sweet.

    Tex: that description of your truck sounds a lot like you!

  16. Ted, she was telling you "you follow well".

    Stop taking Tex's posts and twisting them around to make you look smart. :)
