Chase Wright, with 2 outs in the bottom of the third, allowed 1 solo shot, 2 solo shot, 3 solo shot, 4! Torre allowed him to get the last out before pulling him. I'm assuming there was supposed to be a lesson learned about fighting through it or something, but can't he learn that lesson against the Blue Jays or something?

I'm so glad the Red Sox swept the Yankees!! JD Drew has now participated in 2 of the 4 straight HR convoys

Nice. I'm not a fan of the Sox, but I think all Yankee fans are too cocky.</div>Too Cocky? Lol, you are thinking Red Sox fans since their World Series win.</div>OMG don't get me started on that. Here in New England it's all about their World Series win. 9 out of 10 arguments involve a Sox fan saying "Yeah when the last time the Yankees won the Series? Yeah we won in 04 what's up."And apparently the new hot button topic issue for Sox fans in saying Dice-K isn't a rookie. I said that and got about 6 people pissed at me today.
Dice K isn't a professional baseball rookie, but he's still an MLB rookie so he's considered a hot prospect. I think Matsuzaka needs more time to develop in the MLB. In time, he'll be a harder pitcher to play against.I'm not a Yankee fan, nor am I really trying to defend them. But look at how many key players the Yankees had injured. Chien Mang-Wang (spl?) is quite possibly the best pitcher that the Yankees have in their pitching rotation. Hideki Matsui is a great hitter and a pretty decent outfielder. He'd definetly give the Yankees more chance to win. And Mussina is a key pitcher in their rotation. I'm not saying that with the players that I just mentioned, the Red Sox would lose. There would be more of a shot that the Yankees would win though. It'd be a lot more realistic than the Red Sox getting all cocky of how they swept the Yankees.And the next time someone says, "When's the last time the Yankees won the World Series?" I think you should smack that person in the face. The Yankees have won WAY more championships than any other professional sports in the history of sports. So yeah, that definetly includes the Red Sox. And that person's talking about the past? Rewind to last year. The Red Sox got swept and they even lost twice in a double header.Anyways, I think Red Sox fans and Yankee fans are both equally cocky. Cockiness only comes with success though. So you can't really blame either of them for how they react when they win or lose to each other.
Both fan bases are stupid.Typical red sox and yankees fan conversation:Red Sox Fan: Hey buddy, nice game last night. What happened to Mariono Rivera? I thought that punk was the best closer ever.Yankees Fan: Ahh shut up ya freakin punk. Rivera could kick Dice-K's ass in a fight.Red Sox Fan: I could kick your ass in a fight. Yankees Fan: oh yeah, well we have 26 more championships den you. What now?Red Sox Fan: Well we won in '04 ya punk.*fighting ensues.

I said that and got about 6 people pissed at me today.</div>You see, here is the main difference between Yanks-Sox fans.The Yankee fans know their team is good. They know they are the best ever. It's not arrogance if it's the truth, it's smugness. The majority of Yankee fans are Smug.The Red Sox have (I think 5) total championships, and only 2 in the past 89 years. It's the jealous little brother syndrome. He is so frustrated and jealous of the older brother, than when he finally beats him once he gets arrogant and cocky "Oh I beat you!!"The older brother just rolls his eyes because he's a smug son of a bitch, and the little brother continues to act cocky to annoy the older brother, but is still jealous of the success.Yankee Fans: Smug, asshole older brothers.Red Sox Fans: Annoying, jealous little brothers.
i probably am cocky. But 26 WCs will do that. The main difference is that Yankee fans still respect other fans, while Red Sox fans are so desparate to look good that they belittle other teams. I will admit that both teams can be annoying, so I try to tone it down.
Red Sox fans are way too cocky. It goes in hand with the fact that they're Pats fans. Any New England area fans are way too cocky. All they talk about is how they won those 3 titles. They refuse to admit anything bad about Tom Brady aka the NFL's golden boy.Not to mention they're total hypocrites. Anytime me or my friends who are Yankees fans they always say "Don't live in the past..." yet all they talk about is the 04 series.fans of NE area teams = dumbest fans in sports bar noneI should also trow in the fact that in New England no one cared about Pats or Sox until they started winning in about 01 or so.

The rest is so true.

Oh, and Kruk is pointing out something on Baseball tonight. Dice-K intentionally pegged A-Rod and they were high class about it and didn't get into a bean ball war with the Bosox.
