It is in the guide with D*, blacked out.

What channel on D* is it showing ?

 

[king3pj]

I thought they reported that Scherzer was gonna pitch tonight's game ?

Glad to see Smyly again, but they said Scherzer was good to go.

Scherzer pitched the 1:00 game.

 

[Jimbo]

I upgraded to the hopper system when it came out so I still have quite a long time. I will go back to Directv when it runs out though. I'm sick of all the disputes and I want Sunday Ticket. I would have gotten EI too but after using MLB.tv on all my devices this year for about $100 less than EI I think I would stick with that now. It would be nice to have it from my tv provider so I could use my dvr without switching inputs but MLB.tv actually carries more feeds and I'm too used to being able to use it on my iPhone, Kindle Fire, and Laptop when I'm away from home.

So you've got what another 18 months or so ?
Maybe D* will help with a ETF credit ... part of ?

Yeah something like that. Maybe I will give them a call and see if they will work with me.

Ahhh ok.

 

[king3pj]

Ahhh ok.

He took the loss but he didn't actually pitch that poorly. Just more bad defense from the tigers.

They really need to address the D* in the off season.

Then again, they don't allow a Designated Fielding team.

We have the DH, how about a DF ?

Sorry for being late, 663 has it blacked out for me.

Just looked at Gamecast, 3 more errors tonight. It took a change in managers for the Sox to see a big improvement in defense this year.

 

[king3pj]

All right. We have Cabrera, Fielder, and Young up in the bottom of the 9th. These are supposed to be the guys we can count on so we have to get a walk off run this inning.

... And they didn't come through.

Fwiw, I really like your manager, a complete opposite from the last one !

To the 10th we go.

 

[Jimbo]

Can't wait till next year when we have a Closer, ANY Closer.

I like Robin too. Ozzie at one time was a good manager, then it went to his head. Took a lot of balls for KW to pick Robin, but he's been a good pick.

 

[king3pj]

Well that was depressing but at least we gained some ground. One game back is manageable.

Tigers get SWEPT in thier DH today.

End the weekend 1 GB from the 1st place Sox.

 

[Sparkman]

Wasn't counting on a Twins sweep in Detroit. Not sure either one of these teams want to win the division. Sox been playing well at home, need to have good week.

[RANT]

Mum Ehhff!!!! What the hell is this??? It's something like our 11th 1-run loss in a row??? We suck!!! We have no mental toughness!!! And we get our arses handed to us, at home, by the Twins today. I'm ticked!...no, I"m pissed!...no, I'm seething! We don't deserve to play in the postseason this year. :rant:

I guess we're battling it out with Chicago to find out which team sucks the least.
