Game 112 Overflow Thread

It's Fight Night at Fenway Park!  Rick Porcello has been tossed from the game after hitting Kevin Youkilis with a pitch.  Youkilis was also ejected for charging the mound and throwing his helmet.  (He might have to ice himself, after Porcello body-slammed him to the turf, too.)  Did we miss anything?

Oh.  Chris Lambert served up a game-tying three-run homer to Jason Bay.  Blurgh.

So what time's this one going to end?  Should we shoot for midnight?

Overflow after the second inning?

New record? Shall we all pick a game where we try to force a pre-game overflow thread?

Youkilis had sand in his foldy places

i'm not going to win any friends here by saying this but ...

porcello kinda got owned. that picture is misleading. he was backing away, threw his arms arms up, and luckily was able to use youk’s momentum to throw him down.

it was definitely youk’s momentum, but I’m not sure how he got “owned”.

by rcpratt on Aug 11, 2009 8:27 PM EDT up reply actions  

no

as a wrestler in real life, porcello backing up helped lure youk into a charge and take him off-balance. may have been planned or not, but it was effective and he didn’t get owned at all

Full synopsis:

They hit Cabrera on the wrist and he had to come out of the game. Porcello hit Youkilis in the back, causing him to throw his helmet at him and charge. Benches cleared. Porcello and Youk ejected. Francona ejected the next inning for arguing about someone getting caught stealing. Everyone very pissed.
