If Carp was a couple steps faster we could have had Friday Night at The Fights.., he went in to 2nd spikes aimed at Escibar

This is going to end up like the 2-1 game where the umps screwed us - that time on replay - isn't it?
As I said, no accountability for these umps.

It is a shame Carp does not have more speed. There is no doubt he would have spiked him.

The fact that Carp was going to spike Escobar is not exactly a positive development. The incompetence of the umpires plus the machismo of the game is going to force a Red Sox player to retaliate sooner or later, which is going to start a brawl and get that player (and likely others) suspended.

I agree... It was clear that the umpires were aware of the issues coming from last Sunday's game. It was obvious that Price hit Ortiz on purpose and the umpires should have tossed him out. That would have kept the game under control from the start.

If Papi hits a HR here he will set a record for the slowest tater trot.

You know he's not going to pitch you inside, so just look for that outside fastball and drive it into the Monster. C'mon Papi.

Arnie Beyeller looks pretty excited.

Look on the bright side... Farrell can't put Gomes in the lineup against RHP if he's suspended.

You know I feel like the Sox should just forfeit this game in protest against the umps. That would really force MLB to have a long hard look at things.

Workman hit the right guy and AJ told Longoria to take it or go with me. Maybe this will stop the foolishness before someone gets hurt.

I mean, they can't exactly let Workman keep throwing at Longoria. Yes, Price should have been thrown out, but once the idiotic decision was made that the Carp HBP was unintentional, nothing could be done there, and the solution is certainly not to let the Red Sox get a freebie.

This is absurd. Someone should drill the home plate ump. Pierzynski is the perfect guy to "miss" a high, hard fastball. Now with the rain watch the umps call the game to penalize the Sox further.
This is just a clownshow of the highest order.

Badenhop has been fantastic this season in middle relief. And that's his 4th double play of the season, albeit not his typical ground ball type. 2.08 ERA now, remember when people were clamoring for his release a few days into the season?

OK, since we can't swear on this site -
May David Price tear his UCL and ACL on the next pitch. And get a severe case of scabies.
May Joe Maddon pass eight kidney stones, one during each of the next Sox games.
May Evan Longoria choke on his own chaw and then trip and tear his groin falling down the dugout stairs as he tries to Heimlich himself.

Workman waits until his night is almost done anyway, picks a comparable (in terms of status) player to Papi, and gives him the retaliatory HBP. He's using his head -- or the club is using it for him.

So workman didn't hit anyone and got ejected? How many pitches did he throw at lingo?
