Smc, it looks like neither of our starting pitchers are playing worth a damn tonight!

Actually, as I type this Dana Eveland has been yanked from the game(and rightfully so!) after letting the first two batters reach in the top of the fourth.

For now, the score is currently 6-5 Toronto in the top of the fourth. I have no illusions that this score will remain.

I was right. 6-6 tie now.

I honestly sometimes wonder about the Management capability of Cito Gaston. He leaves a starter in that is obviously struggling and leaves him in after the offense bails out the starter by scoring 6 runs for him. He then, after waiting too long to yank the starter, decides to stick the shittiest reliever that the Jays have in their bullpen right now(Jeremy Accardo). Way to manage a good game, Cito!

8-6 Boston at the moment.

8-8 game! Whew! What's that smell? Oh yeah! It's the starting pitchers for both teams! They stink!

It's 9-8 now, Boston leading. I've been concentrating my attention on the Bruins tonight, however, and they close to advancing. Buffalo just scored as I'm typing, so it's 4-3 Boston, with just over a minute.

Yep. I was following the hockey game online. Boston won, and now they can enjoy a few days off until their next game(not sure who they would be facing, though).

The baseball game is 9-9 now.

Boston won 13-12. While it may have been a fun game to watch(hope their next series in July has games as exciting), both bullpens need to give their heads a shake. Disgusting display of pitching.

I am pretty sure that smc will agree that it wasn't a case of our hitters being great, it was a case of our pitchers(most of them, anyhow) sucking eggs!
