I just realized David Aardsma shut down the team that trade him.

Maybe Aardsma should close when Jaku pitches:
On April 10, Aardsma recorded the first save of his career, pitching 2 innings of relief against the Oakland Athletics. This save also marked the first MLB win for Chris Jakubauskas.

It was a night of Ichiro glory in Right Field.

The guy behind me had it hit him in the mitt and he dropped it.
That play was what started the “fight” and eventual removal of a Sox fan from our section.

It wasn't really a fight.
He had been standing at the top of the stairs all night watching the game from up there. Every time I went past him he was talking smack about Boston.
After Ichiro’s first home run we were leaving to go have a smoke and he got up in my face saying I was a loser for dropping the home run. I grabbed his hat off his head after he got a little too close for me and I threw it on the ground.
I walked away and told my usher to make sure he was gone when I got back and he was.

Generally my response to the threat of physical confrontation is to run away limp-wristedly and skrieking
but I have the feeling that were I ever to get into a fight again it would be with a Red Sox fan.
by acblue on May 16, 2009 3:43 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
You do realize...
Your grabbing his hat was you assaulting him first…
A jackass with the smelliest breath can get up in our face, or a little too close, all he wants, but as long as he doesn’t touch you…
Just sayin’… dickhole or not, you might be in the wrong here.
Fans are typically idiots.

by Matthew on May 16, 2009 6:50 PM PDT up reply actions 1 recs
Appreciated, but Typical is incorrect.
This is because from a legal definition perspective assault is to threaten, battery is to physically touch without consent.
Therefore what the guy did was in fact assault, and touching someone’s hat is not battery.

I guess I kinda understand it.
I mean, for a while there was a lovable loser quality about the Sawx. The whole Yankees vs Red Sox rivalry added a bit of mystique to things too. Then when they started winning WS titles a whole new group of people jumped on.
Like Chris Rock said about OJ “I wouldn’t have done it. But I understand.”

Not positive though. But Giants games can be found on the airwaves at times.

Didn't see much of the game but godfuckendammit why can't lowe always pitch like that
Also, I am terrified of the idea of Aardsma as closer.

NO!
The best part of that was the Sox fan who’s just off the screen to the right who wants to give the guy a high five for some reason. You see the guy who caught the ball pause, then high five someone else (closer to him). Great safeco moment right there.

I think you should write an open letter to Ichiro and Kenji.
This is much more important than any lousy open letter to Felix about his pitch selection.

That was pretty nice.
I was just thinking that Daniel Bard isn’t much, but is somehow a better 2006 draft pick than Morrow, but then Lowe came in and outpitched him, but throwing just as hard. I needed that almost as much as I needed that 2nd Ichiro funk blast.

Oh that Ichiro!
For those of you debating whether Ichiro can hit home runs at-will, here’s what he had to say about it.
“I’m not Sadaharu Oh,‘’ he said, smiling. "So, I don’t have the abilities to do things like that.’’
Later on, he observed: "I guess it kind of proves that, in the universe, mysterious things happen.’’
