What a disappointing inning. And I don't just mean giving up four runs. More frustrating was the missed chance to assert themselves - the way Pedro used to do regularly against the Yanks, and the way even Bronson Arroyo did against A-Rod four years ago.
If Joba is going to be the tough guy against Youkilis, the heart of this team, then some Sox pitcher has to respond. And was there a better chance than against A-Rod with first base open? First base open? A little high, a little tight... Someone?
It took too long for the Sox to earn top dog status in the AL East. It's going to take some hard ball to keep it.

You guys hit 3 batters today and the Yanks haven't hit any in the series I think. Hansen got arod, but then the Yanks scored 3 runs with 2 outs. Worked out well for you guys. Keep worrying about throwing at people as we pass you by. Keep crying little boy
Dennehy,
I hope....oh Lord I hope.....you're not saying that the Norwegian from St.Johns Univ. aka HANSON was throwing at A-rod?
Cuz if he was......
HE FAILED....
3 or 4 runs came in afterwards?
far cry from Joba's foul tip on Youk that resulted in a couple of weak K's......no?
So tell me, how much do you beaners really know about baseball?
Thank God for Youk redeeming himself yesterday with a nifty DP on Giambi's scorcher...oh never mind, you guys probably can't remember that.
Somebody get me a broom.
