Let's Go Sampson !!!

Written by Baqqs on 11:55 AM


Today, in about 3 hours Chris Sampson will make his most important start of the spring. Unfortunately for him he will face a potent Tigers lineup. However, that's ok! He doesn't need to strike them out just induce a few ground balls and he should be fine. It is weird that I am a little bit nervous for him. They may be drawn from my love for the team and knowledge that Sampson would win more games this year as a starter than Woody would. This game is pretty much Chris' lat shot at winning that spot.



The season officially began today with the Red Sox squeaking out a 10th inning win against The Oakland A's. Nerves may have gotten the best of Dice-K as he gave up a few early runs. Both Blanton and Dice-K couldn't make it into the 6th and The A's took the lead in the 9th as Street gave up a run in the 9th and two in the 10th to get the Blown Save and Loss. In the end it was Manny R. who was named player of the game and was given a giant Million Yen check.
