I have noticed that my like of Ellsbury has increased ever since he picked up Let It Rock as his plate music. That song gets me so amped.

PAWSOX TONIGHT. bowden scratched, has a couple weeks off (per standard proceedure with paw sox pitchers.. i guess they all get that at some point during the season).. will be back on the mound sometime after the allstar break. enrique gonzalez up tonight! havent been to mccoy in what feels like ages. looking forward to august 7th in pawtucket, which i just found out is replica jersey night! first 5000 fans. you can bet i'll be there. that's a sweet giveaway, and it comes two days after michael bowden bobblehead night in portland. minor league promotions are incredible.

(last night's sox game was great, even though they lost. long game with lots of pitching struggles for both sides, but petey had a home run, bard showed some dominance (3 k's in 1.1 innings of work), and i got to sing the Bay song. i was hangin out way up there in the cf bleachers with my mom's faculty, a group of 37 of us. yes, i am proud of my ticket-finding skills. did the monstah thang pre-game for sox bp with Josh, the gym teacher at my mom's school (she's a principal). HE BOUGHT ME ICE CREAM IN A RED SOX HELMET. having ice cream in a helmet is a dream i had almost given up on at this point in life... one of very very few ways in life in which my parents have failed me. sorry if you dont understand how i could be so excited about this. dont you remember thinking ice cream in a mini helmet was the must-have item at the concession stand at your minor league park? dreams do come true.)
