It may not be a bad idea after looking at Ruth's stats ... possibly using him as a fifth starter or long reliever, whenever necessary (er, maybe not

)... this way, will give the starters a much needed rest ... his bat may be best needed due to the lack of needed runs during close games ...

June Schedule

It’s going to take some pretty fancy shooting to right this ship with the next 16 games on the road! WithThe devastating Home record last month (The one with no name) of 7-18, It will be a tough road to hoe to recover from that. So let’s get on with it shall we?

Dubuc Shuts the Door

Boston tried to give one away, but Reliever Jean Dubuc isquickly becoming the Relief corps right hand man for Tight situations. With 7 appearances and only 4 hits and 4 walks in 11.2 IP, was once again meticulous earning his 2^ndsave of the year. Babe Ruth connected for his 3^rd Homer of the year,a 2 out, 2 run shot to cap the scoring in a 7 run 2^nd inning.

Dutch Leonard masterful in Sox Win!

Dutch Leonard pitched superb allowing only 1 run and 6 hits with a single walk and needing only 105 pitches to complete the outing. Harry Hooper runs wild on the #16^th ranked Catcher at throwing out runners. From his new lead-off spot in the batting order Hooper stole 4 bases. Some Guy named Ruth hit his 4^th Homer of the year and he’s closing in on the League leader Gavvy Cravath and his 6 Dingers.The new complete Sox Lineup is set in stone barring someone being unable to participate. Ruth is however scheduled to sit out tomorrow’s game @ Cleveland in anticipation of his Starting game 2 of the 5 game series. He will however be available as a Pinch hitter and a late inning defensive replacement.

Ruth Rock Solid on the mound!

A solid day for Ruth pitching 9 innings with 1 ER and going 2-4 at the plate with a run scored. Harry Hooper steals his 18^thbase to take sole possession of the League Lead. Several Sox Hitters are starting to wake up. Ruth was afforded the luxury of a 5 run top of the first to make his day a little less stressful and he needed only 107 pitches to get through the game. Ruth is expected to get the day off tomorrow or have a very short stint in the game to allow him to recover.

HUH??

What's going on between the Game and your PC ?!? ... any idea?!?

Painmantle · 03-30-2013, 05:27 AM

It's not the game or my PC, it was an issue with a "Power surge" that shut my computer down and the game wasn't saved. My Lap top won't have that issue as it has a battery in it to use as backup power if that happens. It will be a non issue now as I’m on my lap top so it’s GAME ON AGAIN!

Jabez54 · 03-30-2013, 08:50 AM

Well ... as long you don't mind the Laptop ...(I can't stand them - too small and fragile) ... I imagined you do have a surge protector plug into your PC's cord, right ... they have some good ones out there ... I have one which is call, "MP-HTUPS1000MKII Monster Home Theater UPS 1000 MKII " ... never had a problem since, except there was a blackout where everything shutdown for a bit

Ruth Gets 4^th W, 5^th HR

Cleveland's League park

Babe Pitched well and hammered a 2-run Homer to a Short RF Porch in Cleveland , League Park; known around the League as a Hitters park for LHB is even shorter than Fenway’s LF wall but has a 45’ Fence that Ruth had no problem clearing with his towering shot. Jean Dubuc continued his relief perfection with 1.2 scoreless innings striking out 2.

Pinch Hitters get it done!

Hack Miller Delivered the winning blow today

8^th inning heroics by two Pinch hitters get the win for Boston. With 2 outs in the bottom of the 8^th of a 4-4 game Boston loads the bases with 2 singles and a walk, Fred Thomas then delivers a Ph Single to get a run across and take a 5-4 lead. Management then decides to PH Youthful Hack Miller for Ferdie Schupp and Miller delivers a base clearing triple to take a 8-4 lead and Boston needed every run as Relief Pitcher Jean Dubuc’s scoreless streak ended with a dismal performance allowing 3 runs in 1/3 inning, and JackCoombs had to finish it out getting his 2^nd save of the year.
