Just like I said yesterday about the Sea Dogs and their struggles, I really hope that some good home cookin’ will get this Red Sox team on track. That sleeping in their own beds will give them the boost they need to START FREAKING WINNING! If not, I’m pretty sure I’m going to die of something. Not sure what just yet… heart attack, stroke, aneurysm, broken heart… If the Sox care about me at all, they will start winning.

Today’s starting line-up:

Jacoby Ellsbury, CF
Dustin Pedroia, 2B
Adrian Gonzalez, 1B
Kevin Youkilis, 3B
David Ortiz, DH
Darnell McDonald, LF
Cody Ross, RF
Mike Aviles, SS
Kelly Shoppach, C

And on the mound, trying to get his first win of the season, Josh Beckett. He has quite a bit to prove after his lackluster first start where he gave up 5, yup 5, homeruns.

It’s killing me that I’m at work and listening on the radio. I would give anything to see Tim Wakefield and Jason Varitek back on the field for the first pitch. It’s bringing tears to my eyes as I type! Gawd, and now Dewey Evans… WHY don’t I have a TV in my office??? I need to talk to someone about that.

And the announcement of Johnny Pesky… I’m such a damn sissy. Makes me cry every damn time!!

Let’s go Red Sox!!
