That was some pitching tonight.

Seven innings and no walks? We approve. Also, plenty of rest seems to help Jason Varitek.

Peter Abraham reports everybody's favorite tightly wrappped Japanese pitcher is now admitting he injured himself before last spring's WBC - but refused to tell anybody on the Red Sox out of a sense of honor or something.

And can we keep him?

It's one thing to call Matsuzaka a fat, bloated SOB, but quite another to say he got that way by gorging on "dumplings and shumai." So, Pink Hat Hell reports, boston.com has changed the reference in a Tony Massarrotti post to "cheeseburgers."

Kristen enjoyed last night's game, in particular, Matsuzaka's performance:

... Normally I find myself yelling at the TV, "You don't get candy for every extra pitch you throw, Daisuke!" as he proceeds to take an 0-2 count to 3-2 before either walking the guy or striking him out with a brilliant pitch that, for the love of all things small and furry, I can't figure out why he didn't use twenty minutes ago.

But last night seemed less irritating. I didn't even want to kill Julio Lugo. Well, no more than usual. ...

Jennifer Lord reports that she went downstairs this morning, her fifth-grade son was already there, eating cereal and watching Matsuzaka struggle as he got ready for a day of MCAS exams:

... [T]hese were his parting words this morning when I wished him luck.

"Don't worry mom," David said. "I'm more Big Papi than Dice-K on MCAS."

Oga's on Rte. 9 in Natick? Beantown Bloggery has it on good authority - from a sushi-chef friend:

... How often does Daisuke eat there? I was told once a week. How often does his wife eat there? Once or twice a week. Daisuke's a pretty busy guy, so often times it's just his wife and a few of her friends. ...

The Sausage Cook, who cooks and sells sausages at Fenway, reports record sales during Monday's game - 340 sausages. But:

... They will live long in my memory as the most gluttonous and stingiest fans I've encountered. By contrast, on Tuesday night Sausage Cook grilled 240 sausages - and made double the tips! Who knew? ...

Marty just blurts it out: Dice-K sucks.

Amy, meanwhile, says the guy who really sucks is the guy sitting behind her and a friend at the game last night who drenched them with a cup full of spit, leafy remnants of chaw, and sunflower seed shells.

Coolvalley posts a bunch of photos of our new national treasure in action in Kansas City today (along with a photo of the Royals' mascot, which I was going to make fun of because it's weird looking, but then I remembered that our mascot is a fuzzy wall monster).

Beth proclaims: Dice-KKKKKKKKKK.
