Oh and the yankees lost to the

Oh, and the Yankees lost to the Angels

Coffee in hand, I did what I do every morning. I tuned into SportsCenter. My mission: to check on the score of the Yankees/Angels game. As the ticker went through the scores from the NL, I caught the highlights from the Boston/KC game.

Seems that Dustin Pedroia may sit out the All Star Game this year. He wants to be with his wife, Kelli, in Boston. As some of you may already know, Kelli Pedroia went into labor 7 weeks early. Doctors were able to stop her labor, but she is still in the hospital. There has been no official announcement of this, but it seems like a smart thing for Dusty to do. Kelli needs him more than the AL All Star squad. After all, what’s more important?

If Dusty stays in Boston, Aaron Hill should be taking his place as the second base starter. This will undoubtably set Toronto into an All Star frenzy. Hill is a fan favorite, especially of the younger fans.

Player songs for the Red Sox pitchers:

Tim Wakefield: “How bad do you want it” Tim McGraw

Josh Beckett: “Living Hard” Gary Allan

Jon Lester: “I use what I got” Jason Aldean  

 

Could country music be linked to great pitching? Could be. Look at these numbers. 

Wakefield - 11 wins, 3 losses

Beckett - 10 wins, 3 losses

Lester - 8 wins, 6 losses

It’s Concert/Throwback jersey night at the Trop tonight. Yep, going back in time tonight. The Rays haven’t lost a game on Concert Night in a couple of years. That’s always good news.

The concert tonight, after the game, is Smash Mouth.

 

UNTIL NEXT TIME,

GO RAYS!

Good luck to the Rays, I hate the Yanks! Hopefully the Rays can win the division and win the WS! I have my fingers crossed. And just to let you know, everytime you comment on mine, I will make sure to comment on yours so please comment again! :)

Country music is the best! And here’s to another Red Sox win and Yankees lose today!

You know, unless it’s a division rival, I don’t generally take much pleasure in watching another team lose. But after the series at the Dome, and at Yankee stadium, it was rather satisfying to watch the Angels do to the Yankees what they always do to the Twins.

I hope the Rays overtake both Boston and New York and win the East again this year.

Birdland - Just beat the Jays!!! Gotta bring them down!

Julia - :) I HAD to point out the music! But I didn’t see anyone listed with Toby Keith!

Erin - Watching the Yanks lose is a hobby in itself some days!

Hey-
I’m a Padres fan and saw your comment on Kaybee’s blog. I’m not giving up on my team. You probably know what i’m going through right now. So, I really hope this year the Rays can overtake the Yankees and Red Sox! I think that would be awesome!!!!!!!!!! If you could please comment:

Hill would be a great selection for the ASG. It’s weird because 2B is typically not a strong position for the game. Yet this year you can put in Hill, Kinsler, Roberts, and Pedroia in there.

I am sure if Aki were healthy he would be in the mix too. :)

Ginny,
Did you have that quote from “Mash” before!? Never noticed it! I loved Mash! Klinger was one of my favorites because of his lunacy and besides he was the baseball fanatic. One of the hosts of Dodger Talk was a writer for that show.

I know that the Padres have had a hard time of late, but don’t give up! I’d love to see the Rays come out in first place!

Raysfanboy - Seriously we need to shorten the screen name… :)
Hill will probably get the call since he is already on the reserve team. But Kinsler would be a great replacement for Hill’s open spot on the reserve team.

Emma - I just came across it - ok, I went looking for it! You caught me! I’m a big MASH fan, so it works for my blog. :)

You are so right. Dustin needs to be with his wife. Family first. How are you anyway. Sorry for not keeping in touch. Family stuff!!

Hey! “Raysfanboy” isn’t thaaat long, is it? My real name is short, but that would take away from the mystery that is Raysfanboy. Ha! Like anybody cares!

Crazy game tonight. They look like they might have it, then BOOM, not so much. Big game tomorrow.

Rays are looking good, they should keep this up, the AL East is becoming interesting every day.

What do the Rays have to do to shave some games of that lead. Still 5 1/2 out!? Jeez! Ah, the perils of being in the AL East.

Canuck, see you are starting to get a crapload of comments like me! Keep it up, and you will be on the top 100! comment again!

Cat - You’re back! Hi! Are you living the dream of being the best team in baseball right now?

Matt - AL East is becoming a nail biter every night!

Birdland - THANK YOU TO THE O’S!!! Nice work on taking down the Jays!!! You better be posting something about the win…

Raysfanboy - Yankees and Sox have to lose. Sounds easy enough right? HA! The only way to stop Boston will be to beat them ourselves. The Angels are going a good job of dealing with the Yanks. I’m blaming the Devil Rays jersey for this lose. It makes me feel better.

Canuck, thanks so much for commenting, and yes I did post something on the win! Hhaa. please keep commenting, I will be back soon to comment.
