Anyone catching this Red Sox vs Yankees game? I love it! Dempster plunking A-Rod!

Why is this guy even playing? Between the PED suspension and all of the stuff going on between his lawyers and the organization, he shouldn't even be seeing the field.

I haven't followed the situation closely. Do the Yankees have to play him for some reason?

As horrible of a person as he is and as bad as he's been towards the Yanks, he is still and upgrade from what they have had all season at 3rd. And they still have to pay him either way. I'm sure its as simple as that as to why they are, but if money wasn't involved to the extent it is, I'm sure he wouldn't be.

The rivalry has been stale and that sure as hell was awesome. But after throwing behind Arod and then plunking him 3-0 no way dempster should not have been tossed. Girardi had every right to be livid that dempster wasn't tossed.

At any rate, this thing is a powder keg ! Yanks don't get even until late if at all tonight. Hope it's Ortiz if CC is on the mound. That's the only dude in the sox dugout going out to the mound.

This is the stuff this rivalry has been missing!

I hope the BoSox keep pulling away. I think it is much more likely to blow up if the Yanks are getting blown out

You think they've got the brass to peg A-fraud again?

as much as i would love to see it happen again, we gotta ball game to win here, only 1 1/2 up in the east. cant give away bases, even though he just reached.

think the yanks will wait to sqaure up with us next series, maybe they target bogarts, who is suppose to be called up any day now, all hell would break loose if they went after XB in a game.

This AL East race has shades of 2011 written all over it. Its gonna come down to the wire, and it would be beautiful to see Baltimore beat the Sox out for the last wildcard spot in the last series!

Cardinals acquired former ND pitcher John Axford from the Brewers

While the Pirates have won 2 in a row WHILE acquiring 3 players over the last week.

Is Mo really just going to sit on his hands and do NOTHING while the Cardinals get swept away by the Pittsburgh Pirates???

Soooo glad STL has got Joe Kelly. Man, he has been a lifesaver for this team.

If he can replace Lynn and Westy in the rotation for the playoffs, while pitching like this, then the Cardinals might actually have a chance.

Michael Wacha's no hit bid ends with an infield single back to the pitcher with 2 outs in the 9th. That sucks.

I usually only scream no at the tv on Saturdays! Wacca is a great kid. 22 and what a future. He was the compensatory pick for Albert pujols:)

Cleveland continues to Rock!!! Giambi with a walk off, 2 run dinger in the ninth after Chris "marijuana" Perez smoked another 1 run lead in the 9th with 2 homeruns....Go Figure.

This is a team of destiny.
