Yanks Are Coming!
Posted by anskyann on July 25, 2008
The Red Sox and Rays sit atop the American League East tonight as the Yankees come into town. Joba Chamberlain will take the mound as a starter facing Josh Beckett. From what I have read it seems as if he will have to face chants of “Jus-tin! Jus-tin!” from the Fenway crowd. Apparently Justin is Joba’s given name, a name his niece couldn’t pronounce as a baby. Joba made the mistake of letting it be known that he dislikes being called Justin. You can read more about this on Boston Dirt Dogs.com.
David Ortiz will be back in the lineup tonight for the first time since going on the DL. Just in time to face the Yankees. He will have to do his best without Manny in the lineup. It will be interesting to see who will be in 1st place come Monday morning!
Bulletin: on Red Sox original design bandanas- there are only 8 left in size M/L. No more stock on these until October! You can get these at Brown Dog Treasures.com (Fenway Dog’s parent company) with FREE shipping!
