Kevin Youkilis.
You gotta like a guy this intense.
So intense that I'm sure he never even thought about what he looks like before he gets set up at the plate.
Or maybe he does, because it's kinda scary.
Over his head, he points his bat right at the pitcher, hands apart, pretty much like a Samurai movie badass fighter guy with a big sword.
If Quentin Tarantino was a batting coach, lots of guys would do this.
Then he brings his hands together and swings.
Last night he...
MOTHER OF GOD ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
I JUST WENT TO THE BOX SCORE FROM LAST NIGHT'S GAME TO SEE HOW MANY HITS YOUKILIS GOT AND ONLY NOW FOUND OUT THAT...THE RED SOX WON?!
I got two text messages from die hard Sox Fan Kevin Goff last night - the first one came after the 2 Rays runs in the first and is unprintable.
The second one came in about the 5th and said, "I'm chugging rubbing alcohol."
I went to bed when it was 7 zip Rays, thinking the Sox had not only lost, but got creamed again.
Okay so Youkilis had a couple hits and he's batting .409 for the playoffs this year.
But I'm struck dumb by the victory.
The Red Sox can't do this again, right?
I gotta get some coffee...
