Bobby Kielty is in the house!
Do you think if he were born with straight brown hair, he'd be such a clown? The only thing I like about ESPN is the in-dugout interviews. Nothing like live dugout action to liven up a dull game. During yesterday's depressing loss to the Dodgers, ESPN had Kielty's name scrolling across the screen over and over, listed as a Red Sox departure. Kielty had to prove he was in the house by disrupting Ellsbury's interview. I really hope the Sox resign Kielty and I hope that he grows his hair longer and bigger ;)Here's the video of Ellsbury's interview:

Keep Your Shirt On!
Yesterday brought the first loss of 2008, thanks to an ugly inning by Clay Buchholz and and even uglier one by Craig Hansen. The good news is that it gave Don and Jerry plenty of time to discuss the "Dancing with the All-Stars" event. Lots of funny clips, made funnier by Jerry's commentary and Don's giggling.
And if you're curious, NESN has the entire performances.

Baseball is Back!
It's good to have baseball back! Friday night's game brought back Don and Jerry and kicked off baseball for 2008. The first few innings looked like a Red Sox game. The rest looked like a minor league game, full of unfamiliar faces and names. It became hard to cheer correctly. I had to keep reminding myself to cheer for the men in blue. Why are they wearing blue shirts with red socks? It's not a good fashion statement... And there was Tito all wrapped up in a big blue jacket, carefully following the new rule that managers can no longer wear "nightshirts". The highlight of the game, for me, was not actually the game, but a look back at Sox Appeal. Nothing is funnier than when Don and Jerry get giggling...
The Sox won Friday night's game against the Twins with relative ease (8-3). Dice-K and Oki had very nice outings. Saturday's afternoon victory wasn't quite as smooth. A healthy Lester struggled to find the plate and a crazy Papelbon forgot his jersey. Luckily the Sox always keep extra jerseys for Manny on hand, since Manny is, well, Manny...So Pap got to be Manny for the night.."I could feel the dreadlocks flowing, I just forgot my jersey and sure enough, they seem to always have an extra Manny jersey laying around here due to the circumstances."
Papelbon likely had a lot on his mind, as later that night he was to compete in Mike Lowell's Dancing with the All Stars charity event. Despite the distraction, Paps was perfect on the mound. On the dance floor, I can only imagine...
