I think The Tribe has Beckett figured out.

so far he looks hittable...hopefully we do that often

Yes, I agree, even if Haf doesn't,...

jasonmichel -- for a fan, you are way too hard on these guys,...

Man, Haf's been struggling all year. Hope next year he returns to form.

he has to have the best breaking pitch in all of baseball

not really, i didn't agree with the hafner resigning. esp for 58 mil. hafner, nixon, and barfield are the only ones i really have been hard on because they've disappointed

beckett is all over the place, i have to think second time around the order we are going to take some pitches and make him work

Blake looks like a caveman.

I agree. Many of his pitches have been on the outside of the plate or in the ground. If our guys stay more patient, we can get ahead in the count where Beckett has to throw strikes.

That curveball of his is downright nasty though.

Beckett has thrown 33 & Sabbathia has thrown 35 pitches.

CC just hit 98mph on that strike on ortiz....SETTLE DOWN big boy

COME ON CC!!!!!!!!

Strike the Space Cadet out!!!

CC!
CC!

DAMN IT!

I friggin hate Manny!!!!!!!!

freaking CC is sucking, they need to pull him, 2 hr in 3 innings. See you in boston

I'm glad manny really tries hard. for all the money he makes

yeah w/e dude, its looking alot like game 1..

Too early to write CC off. Another run maybe, they think about taking him out.

he's doing exactly what hes done all playoffs, tries to throw it through the backstop, against a very good fastball hitting team

Looks can be deceiving bro

We caught a break. A play that the Bo SoX will add to their wall of shame with Buckners grounder

Way to keep your composure CC!!!

Manny got screwed , that hit the line ,HR.. and this is not the CC. I watched during the regular season .. Hope he pulls it together

That was a pretty awful inning having to listen to the broadcast. The first part was a run-down of what's going on with the Yankees ... the second half was them looking for every possible way to bust Manny's butt.

CC needs to get it together.....

And I don't understand why they can't figure out that the ball hit the very corner of the wall on the yellow. If it hits the top it bounces into the stands, if it hits the front it goes into the ground. If it hits the corner, it does exactly what it did. Do they not understand basic physics?

That wasn't a HR. Ground rules state that. Not sure why you think otherwise but the ball clearly hit the yellow line on the wall and that isn't a HR. That line is only there to help the umpires, it doesn't mean if you hit it that it's an HR.

Anyone else notice Beckett has this cocky smirk on his face all the time? I wanna punch him upside the jaw.

Confused ': I thought if it hit the line it is a HR ?? No..

No, it has to go over the line ... the line is just there to help the umps see that part of the wall.

Man, Hafner needs to sit his ass down. He has done jack this series.

because i have been right about every player i've griped about, you probably don't have a very high comprehension level so i won't bother again. But hafner, sucks, barfield, sucks, nixon sucks, and westbrook for the most part has, and that has been true, So because i'm a fan i'm not allowed to be critical? I've been to 3 games in the playoffs so far, and we've won all 3. but i'm not so blind to see that certain players are just not bringing it. And wedge made quite a few bad calls in the season. Sure he's been great in the playoffs and i'm very impressed how he's held them together. I'll gladly eat crow on that, but my others are right on..57mil for hafner was a HUGE mistake. You mean to tell me he's worth more than ortiz(52mil)..lol that's laughable. but w/e, they need to get there caca together and win this, if it goes to boston...ouch

Ok, I stand corrected ! Thank you sir & up yours Manny !

Why? If you watch baseball Beckett has had that same look for years.

The guy is a talented pitcher and would take him and add him to our roster in a heartbeat. Don't hate a guy for no reason, he's damn good.

time for someone to start warmin up

I hear an echo, LOL.

Wedge should have pulled him some time ago , and CC. is getting nailed ..
