So, Dice-K has one less walk than DCab
in 20 less innings and Danny’s the one with control problems, right-o, then.
I hope Danny knocks Pedroia on his ass at least once tonight.

No
but it’s always “Cabrera’s so wild” – “Dice-K is so awesome”

he's looked good in his two starts against them this year.
Won one, gave up 1 run and lost in the other.

He's started 4 games this year v. BOS...
But true, it is better than years past. The one that sticks out in my mind was one BoSox game early on in the season a few years ago where he walked like 8 dudes. Looms large.

I try not to remember the other two.
But even those weren’t as bad as some that we’ve seen.

you can blame half of one of those runs on Ramon

Hi all
Just got back from the game. Don’t really have much to say about it, but I wanted to pass on that the 50 Millionth fan was our very own kevgracie!
Here’s what he wrote on the “Who’s Who?”
Who I Are?
Kevin 24 m, born in catonsville (birth-10 yo), live in ellicott city, 2nd year law student at UB
Went to Mt. Hebron High school, York college undergrad,
I have worked as mgr, asst. mgr. and currently simply a valet attendant at arundel mills mall valet in front of Muvico- feel free to come by on wknds, more than happy to give the hook up to fellow Os fans!
I play flag football in canton, softball in a summer law firm league, lacrosse for UB, and any other athletics I have the time to do
Congrats to Kevin! If it couldn’t be me I’m glad it’s a Camden Chatter!

Should have come up to 374
That’s where I was the the O’s fans were pretty vocal until the end of the game when a lot of them left early. I find against the Red Sox you’re better off with the cheap seats because you’re more likely to be near O’s fans.
