so is the home opener really that sold out that you cant get two tickets together ????? I searched for two tickets and ticketmaster said sorry no exact matches could be found
Hey Lew, speaking of BB King, he is playing out here the day after I come back from my San Fran Braves trip. Ill be going to see him April 27th.
He aint no spring chicken anymore so I gotta take advantage of a chance to see him play live.
Lew – so I guess you don’t want to hear me complain about it getting below freezing last night (31) breaking up our string of gorgeous weather…by better 1/2 was complaining the highs have been knocked down 10 degrees from last week only expecting mid 60’s
Why not put KK in middle relief. He seemed to pitch well for about 4 innings a game? Especially if we can’t get anyone to take a good portion of his salary
bravofan, I had to take some less than desirable tickets to get three together for the home opener and that was several days ago. It must be close to sold out by now.
tiger- Not so sure anyone (except maybe cab and vj) have had anything approaching good weather this winter. We’re used to it up here, though my wife did get stuck in the driveway yesterday and had to get pulled out. Goo thing Liberty Mutual covered it all so the plow guy could get in to do his thing.
PT Brave, FYI the food at SQ is so-so; we go there for the cold beer, margaritas, etc. and the Jimmy Buffett atmosphere. Usually a good crowd after work and on weekends.
Hinskie chased a high fastball and then fouled off a breaking pitch then fastball outside away. Pitch down in the dirt for the full count then runners on the move hard hit to lars anderson at first sox escape.
Gonzo will leadoff next Braves at bat
almost a great diving play at first by Freeman, but just off his glove. Ellsbury on with a base hit….(Uggla tried to make the spectacular play behind him and fired to Hudson. Nice play just to catch it from Hudson….This is the aggressive play that can lead to errors Fredi was talking about? Not to overanalyze)
Saltalamacchia is not in the lineup today against his former mates but came by and gave some hugs by the batting cage. Spoke to my esteemed notes group colleague Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe and he said the catching job is basically Salty’s gig now, with Varitek playing 50 or so games in more of a Crash Davis type roll….well, that’s not exactly how he put it.
RBI single by David Ortiz off Hudson makes it 1-0 Red Sox, but Schafer just nailed Crawford at third on a nice throw.

Saltalamacchia is not in the lineup today against his former mates but came by and gave some hugs by the batting cage. Spoke to my esteemed notes group colleague Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe and he said the catching job is basically Salty’s gig now, with Varitek playing 50 or so games in more of a Crash Davis type roll….well, that’s not exactly how he put it.

A run on two singles and a walk off Hudson in the first. He threw 19 pitches, 12 for strikes.
