If the Marlins win this game and take the series after that first game debacle it would be an incredibly huge lift. Penny needs to have another "step up" game.

 

My prediction: Penny cruises through 6 innings then gives up a solo homer to David Ortiz. Ortiz trots around the bases in showoff mode again, Penny beans the next 4 Boston hitters in a row, brawls ensue, mass ejections, Pudge finds the home plate ump from last night's game & sucker punches him, Fox beats up Hector Almonte, the team has to hold coach McKeon back from rushing the entire Boston dugout. Marlins win it, 5-4. :thumbup

lol

 

i hope they can pull of the series and prove odoms a** wrong

 

but in a goo way odom, in a good way, right?

no prediction for my just lets go out and win 2morrow !!!!!! :homer :cheers :marlins :marlins :marlins

Marlins 5-4

i want to kick their azzez more than ever after i read that red sox site

 

25-8 marlins

I have a feeling that this game will be up to Penny.

 

I have high confidence that our offense can score 6-8 runs. We have scored 18 the last two days.

 

So if Penny can keep them at 4 - 5 and hand the game to Looper. We can get another W!

Pudge finds the home plate ump from last night's game & sucker punches him

I saw that. Pudge has more credibility in this league than that ump does. He was a fool to do something like that...

 

Anyway...

 

Josh's Prediction: :king The marlins win this game, and in dramatic fashion once again. Both Brad Penny and Derrek Lowe take a pitchers duel into the seventh, tied at 2. Past that, the BoSox bullpen gives up one measely little run, and the Marlins win it, 3-2. :w00t :lol :thumbup :cool

Apparently Boston has now announced that they'll make Byung-Yung Kim as their new closer. No more easy bullpen to pound on...

They won't bring him in unless it's the ninth, and they're winning...

 

Let's hope that situation arises...

what did the ump do to pudge?

Again I never want to play Boston in Fenway again. Sox offense is sick and built right for that park.

But with a hot hot hot Pudge and Juan E getting hot we ahve legitamate coverage for Lowell!

Our team ERA has risen .43 over the last 2 games. lol.

Detroit up 2-0 over D-backs in the 1st!!!!

Still no Manny.

I can't even go to the bar to see this game. ALL TB and Florida games are blacked out in gainesville.

Montreal up 2-0 over Toront. Comon Delgado win this game.

Don't you have TBS? They're airing the Braves vs. Rays game now...

sweet, we've already closed the margin to 5 1/2 back in the wild card race

ahh...the game is on FSN. I was worried...I thought the game started at 1:35 and looked to see what was on at 1 (if its Marlins On Deck, then the game is on tv...if not, then i resort to CBS Sportsline, and this thread). Well, it wasn't Marlins On Deck, and I wasnt happy. Then I realized that the game isnt at home, so there's a chance it isnt at 1:35...sure enough...2:05. And Marlins On Deck comes on at 1:30...ahhh.

I get TBS...but thats the only way I can watch a Fish game. So, I'm looking forward to the Braves series!

I just checked TBS's schedule and they aren't showing any of the games. I am so pissed off right now.

I know how that goes Shamrock. Up in Greenville, I got Fox Sports South (Braves games), TBS (Braves games), and WGN (Cubs games). And of course the Braves, Cubs, Red Sox, Mariners, and Yankees on ESPN.
