    Indeed, it sucks to have the best record in the American League. :lol:

    Ebb and Flow of a season ... losing streaks happen ...

    That said, I'm waiting for FenwayFaithful's "I'm so nervous, I hate this team.. GRRR!" post in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ....

    from the AP recap, apparently a slight downpour ensued during that Ortiz at-bat against ex-Yankee castoff Jose Veras.

    I was mad last night, but I'm over it today. Even if Lester got batted around last night, Beckett and Buckles are on the shelf, DiceK's career is over and John Lackey is having a Richie Tenenbaum-like meltdown before our eyes this season. It's all good jimed.

    I have to say, Im a lifelong Tigers fan and really cant stand the Red Sox, but this this thread always keeps me entertained.


    a couple losses in a row ans its panic time, a couple of wins in a row and theyre the best ever. Keep it coming, its fun to read. - :D

    I posted this in our thread. Hope we can duplicate the other PA team's success.

    Here's the dismal history (Red Sox have won last 8 series):

    1915 World Series (Baker Bowl and Braves Field): Red Sox 4, Phillies 1
    1997 (Fenway Park): Sox 3, Phils 0
    1998 (Fenway): Phils 2, Sox 0
    1998 (Veterans Stadium): Phils 1, Sox 1 (they played these 4 games consecutively, in 2 different ballparks)
    1999 (Fenway): Phils 2, Sox 1
    2000 (Vet): Phils 3, Sox 0
    2001 (Fenway): Sox 2, Phils 1
    2003 (Vet): Phils 2, Sox 1 (3rd game was makeup on Labor Day where Sox salvaged the "series")
    2004 (Fenway): Sox 2, Phils 1
    2005 (Citizens Park): Sox 3, Phils 0
    2006 (Citizens): Sox 2, Phils 1
    2006 (Fenway): Sox 3, Phils 0
    2008 (Citizens): Sox 2, Phils 1
    2009 (Citizens): Sox 2, Phils 1
    2010 (Citizens): Sox 2, Phils 1
    2010 (Fenway): Sox 2, Phils 1

    Phils record:
    Baker Bowl 1-2
    Braves Field 0-2 (they played the World Series here b/c this park fit more people)
    Fenway: 7-13
    Vet: 6-2 :?
    Citizens: 4-11 :roll:

    Too bad we can't play at the Vet. :lol:

    I heard one group of folks clammoring to put Gonzlaez in right, and let Ortiz play 1st.

    Not sure how I feel about having the entire right side of the field out of position.

    I get the feeling Phillies fans are much more obsessed with this series than Red Sox fans.

    As do I.

    Last year I claimed the series was about as important as a series with the Royals, even less so as the Sox aren't even in competition with the Phils for a playoff spot. And jeagler was all over my shit.

    Then the Sox went and took 2 of 3 ... and we didn't hear from him again. :lol:

    You guys won 2 of 3 in 2008 as well (as you do all the time). That really hurt us that year. ;)
