Cole Hamels admitting he hit Bryce Harper on purpose in the first inning last night.
Major League Baseball announced it has suspended Cole Hamels for five games after the Phillies left-hander acknowledged he intentionally hit Nationals rookie Bryce Harper with a fastball during the first inning of last night's game.
The punishment, handed down by MLB senior vice president of standards and on-field operations Joe Garagiola Jr., also includes an undisclosed fine.
The five-game suspension, common for pitchers because it typically forces them to miss one start, could actually have no effect on Hamels' schedule. The Phillies have been planning to activate lefty Cliff Lee off the disabled list Wednesday, and with an off-day Thursday, they canRead more »

Big deal, 5 days to a pitcher. It just means he doesn't start Friday and goes on Saturday.
- sm13 - May 7, 2012 at 9:56 PM
Exactly what you'd expect for Hamels. I'm surprised Jordan got off completely. My guess is that Jordan benefitted from Hamel's comments after the game – if you're dumb enough to admit it, you pay the price.
- original Nats Fan - May 7, 2012 at 9:58 PM
Why don't they stipulate the pitcher HAS to miss one start? At least I hope the fine's a big one.
- FS=Faraz Shaikh - May 7, 2012 at 9:59 PM
Should have been more.
- ehay2k - May 7, 2012 at 10:01 PM
Seems fair to me. Does anyone think that he may have negatively impacted his free agent value as well?Nice to see self-proclaimed "old school" tough guys get a lesson in modern economics.
- Section 222 - May 7, 2012 at 10:03 PM
Phils have an off day on Thursday, so he probably would have started next on Saturday. (Though Lee's return might have pushed that back.) If he begins the five game suspension tonight, he'd be eligible to pitch on Sunday. So not much of a penalty. Still, I'm glad they took action. I guess no one in MLB headquarters had access to the Unwritten Rulebook.
- sm13 - May 7, 2012 at 10:08 PM
My quick calculation is that the suspension will cost Hamels $450,000. That's new school money, Cole.
- Grandstander - May 7, 2012 at 10:10 PM
They can look at a schedule and suspend him 6 games if they want to. I bet this was just a way for them to punish Hamels without really punishing him.
- NatsNut - May 7, 2012 at 10:19 PM
I think this punishment is fine. No need to break out the tar and feathers just yet. Honestly, I love Rizzo's indignation, especially the bleeps for good measure, and I'm getting a huge kick out of all the national coverage on it, but really, it's all kind of just a big PR game. Though I didn't know exactly why, I knew the HBP was deliberate. And if I did, then plenty of others who matter more did too. I laughed when Bryce got him back the right way. And c'mon, we all know Z'nn's was deliberate too. It all would normally have been over, but now we got us a legit fracas going and it's gonna be F.U.N. But to get all bent out of shape because Hamels isn't getting the book thrown at him is just silly.

I've never heard of pegging someone cuz they are a rookie. Now, said rookie dances around base's after a homerun its a different story.

Five games is the norm…anyone who follows baseball would know this was coming.
- sjm308 - May 7, 2012 at 10:30 PM
Slap on the wrist and its probably the correct judgement. Would be interesting if the suspension involved game checks for each game missed. That might make people sit up and take notice. Pretty sure that Hammels is making a decent salary this year even though his big payday is coming next year. I also think JZimm's was intentional and he was smart in not going the route Hammels went. Should be an interesting next series.Really hoping we can win 2 of 3 from the Pirates to make it 9 out of 10 series.Go Nats!!
- Scott from Burke - May 7, 2012 at 10:30 PM
no effect on his value as a free agent one way or the other
- Manassas Nats' Fan - May 7, 2012 at 10:31 PM
Old school was to pitch tight to back them off not to hit them, though if they lean over the plate you hit them. That is old school, not throwing the ball a foot and half inside to hit themm.Not sure what the lesson he wanted harper to get from this.
- sjm308 - May 7, 2012 at 10:36 PM
Might even increase his value but the bottom line will be his numbers this year and they should be great. I will be crushed here but tell me honestly you would not want to have him on our roster.

1) Got suspended for five games2) Got schooled on the steal3) Got plunkedAll self induced. What a dope.

- joemktg - May 7, 2012 at 11:06 PM
1) Hamels receives a suspension, i.e., his behavior and reaction to behavior not approved by MLB.2) Cannot find defense of Hamels act in the press: either players, managers, GMs or beat writers. Charlie bemoans Hamels "honesty" but no defense of his plunking of Harper.3) To that end, didn't read any post game comments from teammates defending Hamels.4) A 19 year old's post game comments stand out as classy: "He's an All-Star. It's all good."Scott: nice defense, from out on a limb no less.

@ScottThis blog is not the place for rude attacks on other posters. If you are so sure you know more than the average poster, apply to espn.

The younger fans no longer have Mr. Povich available to instruct them on the game or sportsmanship, so this site is a great place for them to learn. Try and keep that in mind when posting!

- joemktg - May 7, 2012 at 11:21 PM
Had a different approach on that Jack: I wanted to hear what the WWL had to say about this franchise, esp. Buster. It was an important "coming out" party, and I wanted to hear how they would position it for the national audience. Predictably, they spent entirely too much time on the kid, and not enough on this kids on the pitching staff (thought they would've spent more time on the rotation). And yes: they're all kids…unfortunately.

"Gutless" is too good for Mr. Good Looking. It was pure bush and totally uncalled for. The kid hadn't even batted against Hamels in his life, for crying out loud.Hamels will be perfect for Scoscia and that overpaid bunch in Anaheim. Great place for the guy. And then he never even has to come to the plate and bat.Five games was too light. Shoulda be 25. I'm still steamed off about this.
- NatsLady - May 7, 2012 at 11:27 PM
NJ, I had my radio headset on at the game, but I listened to the ESPN guys while watching video replays, and they are really bad. No insight into the game at all, and called the entire Hamels/Harper/steal of home exactly WRONG!I understand that we know more about the Nats than they do, but the number of errors I heard in just a few clips is staggering. And scary because maybe I don't know as much about an opposing team and it would be nice if they offered something.
- MicheleS - May 7, 2012 at 11:33 PM
I figured that 5 games is what he would get. After seeing Manuels reaction to the comments i am guessing the phillies want to get this over with. They were getting lots of bad publicity for this and then from some of their fans behavior

Can the Orioles use the Caps as an excuse for tonites attendence?
- NatsLady - May 8, 2012 at 12:05 AM
Wonk, first, they started in about how Hamels' fastball wasn't working and he lost control. They concluded that the HBP was probably accidental.Then they had no clue about Harper taking a big lead or any possibility of him stealing home (which Dave and Charlie mentioned right away). Then they didn't mention that Polanco could have called time out and warned Hamels. At that point the clip–mercifully–ended.
- Cwj - May 8, 2012 at 12:12 AM
Agree that the ESPN broadcasters were terrible.However over at ESPN, Curt Schilling really tore into Hamels: http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=espn:7900788Before this whole thing I was kind of thinking it would be nice if the Nats pursued Hamels when he becomes a free agent.Doubtful that will happen now. Rizzo was absolutely furious.
- sm13 - May 8, 2012 at 12:21 AM
Natslady – I hate to disagree with you, but I was watching ESPN and I did hear them mention that Harper was getting a very large lead at 3rd, which made me anticipate him steal. Also, Orel H immediately said the pitch from Hamels was intentional (not that it took a rocket scientist to figure that out). There was a great breakdown of Harper's steal on MLB Tonight — used the 360 degree camera to show how the play developed. Also, they measured Harper's lead from third and compared it to where Polanco was positioned. Harper was a foot or so short of being as far away from third as Polanco — that is called having great instincts.
- NatsLady - May 8, 2012 at 12:24 AM
Checked some of their boards: Several Philly fans said Hamels was not a true Philly. Now if you are saying that about your own guy who helped you win the World Series, and really is a good pitcher, well, you have to wonder. Most Philly fans didn't say that about Werth after his injury, they were sorry he got hurt and remembered him as a great player who helped them win. The contrast was striking.Not a lot of defense of Hamels, mostly just sniping at Rizzo and complaining that JZ didn't also get a suspension.
- NatsLady - May 8, 2012 at 12:29 AM
Yes, I recall them mentioning the lead, but they didn't mention that he might steal. I remember specifically because I was impressed that Dave mentioned not just the lead but also the lob throw to first when he said Harper might steal. I've never seen a steal of home on a pick-off throw to first and it would not have occurred to me.
- ehay2k - May 8, 2012 at 12:38 AM
That steal was simply amazing. The MLB coverage showed just how great it was. And I can't help but wonder if he didn't plan to do that the moment he got on base – "If Werth gets a hit, I am going to third, then I will steal home as he tries to pick off Jayson."Was Jayson in on it? Perhaps he was taking a little bit extra lead off first to draw the throw?Add to that, that that was the first steal of his MLB career, and it was really a humdinger!
- baseballswami - May 8, 2012 at 12:47 AM
I really don't like listening to the four letter network and find that their knowledge is very shallow and not thought through. I was in and out of the room, but they did make a huge deal of Utley and Howard being out for the Phils and what a HUGE difference that would make for them. Will Howard play for them this year? They did finally mention Zim being out, but did not put two and two together that we were missing our 3,4 and 5 hitters and our closer AND Brad Lidge. I am sure that they were unaware. They seem to have pat ideas about things that are not backed up by the current situations or facts. In other words – they are lazy and don't keep up. They seemed quite positive that by the second half of the season the phils, yanks, sox et al would be back in their rightful places atop their respective divisions. And Scott – i know I have been yanking your chain, all in fun – you are entitled to your opinion but there is no need to insult any of our imaginary friends no matter how much you disagree with them. We are all passionate amateurs but a lot of us really do go back a ways and know a few things.
- Soul Possession, My PFB Hitterish Sofa - May 8, 2012 at 12:48 AM
ehay, there was some discussion earlier of Werth and Harper going over video of various pitchers' moves, including Hamels's, noting that he's not particularly quick to first. Bo Porter was apparently in on the pregame conversation, also.
- DL in VA - May 8, 2012 at 12:49 AM
Natslady, I beg to differ about Phillies fans calling Cole out. This is what Crossing Broad is saying. The comments are enriching reading.http://www.crossingbroad.com/2012/05/cole-hamels-suspended-five-games.html#comments
- sm13 - May 8, 2012 at 12:59 AM
Ehay2k. Good thought about Werth drawing throws to give the kid the chance to steal. It may have been a wider conspiracy than I had previously believed. And you can bet the ESPN crew didn't mention it…
- Soul Possession, My PFB Hitterish Sofa - May 8, 2012 at 12:59 AM
What do you think, five game suspensions for calling other posters names?
- NatsLady - May 8, 2012 at 1:02 AM
DL in VA, wow, I didn't read that one. Thanks for the link. Much milder on MLB.com, which can get pretty dicey sometimes. Maybe the moderator took the extreme ones off MLB.com and I didn't see them.I did feel originally that Hamels should have gotten 10 games and JZ 5, in recognition that Hamels started it, without apparent provocation, but that if MLB really wants to stop it, they needed to give something to JZ also. I think not giving JZ any penalty might inflame the situation.
- JaneB - May 8, 2012 at 1:07 AM
I was so shocked that Charlie and Dave would SUGGEST a steal could be coming, and then it happened, just like they called it. I'm so glad I happened to hear that one inning on the radio instead of the TV show. I, too, wish that a five game suspension actually meant the pitcher lost five games. He is on my permanent bad list, that Hamels fella (and I'm sure he's bereft at the thought of it — LOL).
- Section 222 - May 8, 2012 at 1:16 AM
Over 1400 comments so far on the MLB.com piece about Rizzo's comments about Hamel. Nats and Phillies fans going at it. Pretty entertaining. If anyone here is carrying the flag for us, good on you.
- ehay2k - May 8, 2012 at 1:19 AM
LOL Soul Possession, that might be hard to enforce. Not sure if there is a "Ban for X Days" button on Mark Z's admin console. I am hoping we can police ourselves. There really is no need for name calling, or getting upset when someone disagrees with you to the point where you tear them down rather than reinforce your argument. I read some of the other sports blogs and am so glad that we have this one (that Crossing Broad site gets a zero from me.)Needed a day off. The Caps are playing, and I am actually watching that game. Took a while to find it thanks to the NHL's abysmal media package (When did Versus become the NBC Sports Network?). If they can't get their playoff games on broadcast television, then the NHL really needs a new commissioner. Zimm comes back along with ALR tomorrow. Should be a good series. Still wish the Pirates would have continued to dump players long enough for us to get McCutcheon! I like that kid. GYFNG, but rest up first!
- RickH - May 8, 2012 at 1:28 AM
So, I heard Hamels say that the Nats got "the message" after plunking Bryce. Just what message were we supposed to get?
- NatsFanJim - May 8, 2012 at 1:34 AM
Baseball rewards liars: It's the Code. Hamels broke the code – he told the truth. "I cannot tell a lie, I threw at him; welcome to the big leagues." Resulting in 5 game suspension.Zimmerman: Did not break the code: "I didnt throw at Hamels; the pitch got away." This lie resulted in a pat on the head.Too bad. I understand Rizzo needing to protect his investment — but that is Old Baseball. And such great Theatre it Is (or was).
- ehay2k - May 8, 2012 at 1:41 AM

- Scott from Burke - May 8, 2012 at 1:43 AM
Hamels admitting it was odd but refreshing…but part of the reason for no zim suspension is he was evening the score…the first pitcher that hits a batter "started it" in high school parlance
- baseballswami - May 8, 2012 at 1:52 AM
Jordan's command was not good. He walked 4. Has he ever done that? Hamels gave up only the one stolen run. He was in complete control. Plus, jordan is not a narcisstic jerk. If he was going to plunk it would have been someone else and not in the knee. He had a tough night with the pitching.
- whatsanattau - May 8, 2012 at 1:57 AM
I had a busy day and just now got through required reading across the internet. … wow. Is it wrong that I just read 8 stories on the Post website, but came here to post?On Werth: Get well soon. Love hearing that he both heard and vows to remember the Phillie fan taunts as he walked off the field hurt last night. Shame on those people.On Harper: Wow, wow, wow… Stealing home and stealing our hearts with professionalism and class.On Rizzo: Go get em tiger! On Hammels: idiot.On Manual: If you orchestrated it – shame. If you tolerated or condoned it – shame. If you failed to control it, get your act in gear. On replacing Werth in the outfield: Don't try to do it with players on the roster. Show you support the current players by getting them some help.There. I think I feel better now.

The net result is this: Cole Hamels just added to the legend that is Bryce Harper. When the annals of history are written, there will be an interesting trivial question: what was Bryce Harper's first stolen base? Home. What punk pitcher allowed a 1 week old big leaguer to steal home on him? Cole Hamels.
- NatsLady - May 8, 2012 at 2:32 AM
ooooo, I didn't know this:Two summers ago, Harper raced home on the same play – left-handed pitcher, man on first, languid pickoff move – back-dooring a junior college pitcher in Grand Junction, Colo., just as he did Hamels in D.C.

The more I read about "The Plunking" (its literally everywhere) the more I'm convinced Hamels acted on his own. Both the Dodgers and D-Backs pitchers had many opportunity to "welcome" Harper with a plunking, yet they did not. To me that's pretty telling. It was a very strange, uncalled-for act on Hamels' part. Drilling a kid because he is a hyped rookie? Very stupid decision by Cole.There is no doubt in my mind that Jordan's HBP was retaliation.He specifically targeted Hamels, rather than any of their position players, probably because the Nats (the veterans, no doubt) were extremely angry. They all knew Harper was intentionally hit for no other reason than to show him up. Zimmermann retaliated.These Nats seem to have perfect chemistry. That, as well as the pitching and attitude should carry them far I believe.That's my opinion anyway :DGo Nats!

Phills lose = Awesome!Braves lose = Cool!Marlins won = Blah.

Even Halliday and Lee are showing their age.
- NatsLady - May 8, 2012 at 3:07 AM
Lot of people making fun of Hamels on Twitter. For example:Rockies called up Alex White. Hamels welcomed him by signing him up for 22 BMG Music Club memberships for only 22 cents! #oldschool

Of course they were angry! Schooling Harper is their job, and a d@@@ fine job they are doing, by all accounts–Harper hasn't stepped out of line once since he's been up. Who elected Hamels pope? And yes, JZ went for Hamels, at some risk, putting a man in scoring position in a 1-run game, and also getting the ump's warning so he couldn't really pitch inside.
- Soul Possession, My PFB Hitterish Sofa - May 8, 2012 at 3:14 AM

Gonat said… Braves just lostWhich means that Wednesday morning, no matter what happens, the Nats will be alone in first place.(Yes, yes, I know, they are only 1 game in front, but even a Nats loss and Braves win tomorrow – they will be ahead by winning pct.)

Looking forward to hearing the crowd reaction the next time Hamels takes the field at Natitude Park.

Brian Kenney, Mitch Williams and Ron Gant were just unanimous in strongly(!) condemning Cole Hamels.Must watch on MLB Network! I'm sure it'll be re-broadcast.
- NatsLady - May 8, 2012 at 3:47 AM
Oh, and there's this from WaPo:In an e-mail to the Post, Werth said Phillies fans in right field at Nationals Park taunted him as he walked off the field Sunday night. And he will remember them during his rehab."After walking off the field feeling nauseous knowing my wrist was broke and hearing Philly fans yelling 'You deserve it,' and, 'That's what you get,' I am motivated to get back quickly and see to it personally those people never walk down Broad Street in celebration again," Werth wrote.
- whatsanattau - May 8, 2012 at 3:53 AM
Side bar. Don't rule out the Marlins or the Phillies as contenders by year end. This could be one of those years where four teams from the same division are over .500. Although that will depend on how each fares during inter league. If Halladay, Hamels, and Lee all get hot the evil could rise. If the Marlin bats come alive they could hang in there too. And the Braves have a lot going for them. There's no running away with this division. Still, the team is looking tough. Zimmerman, Harper, and Laroche are formidable. If the others can do enough to support until Morse comes back the team should start scoring more runs.
- whatsanattau - May 8, 2012 at 3:54 AM
Btw, somebody tell Harper about the outfield walls in Pittsburgh – hard behind light padding. Ask Ryan Church.
- Cwj - May 8, 2012 at 4:07 AM
If at all possible, Nats fans should make it a point to take over the right field seating area when Werth comes back and Philly is in town.Werth is the most heckled National by far (even by some so-called Nats fans), and we shouldn't allow that at Nats Park.
- rabbit34 - May 8, 2012 at 10:48 AM
For a pitcher, forget about missing 5 games. Since he isn't a position player, a pitcher should miss 5 starts.
- Joe Seamhead - May 8, 2012 at 11:27 AM
Cwj, I bought 4 tix to Sunday's game in sec 140 just to start Nats Fans taking over the RF bleachers. It was an "interesting" evening, to say the least. My season tix are below the press box, and though I''m not ready to switch, I will buy some RF seats for the next Phillies/Nats series. We need some slightly refined version of the Bleacher Creature type outfield "club" at Nats Park.
- Tcostant - May 8, 2012 at 12:57 PM
I've always thought that MLB should make Hamels wait to serve his sespention vs. the team he threw out. In other words, wouldn't it be nice if MLB made Hamel miss the next Nationals series. Just a thought. I know this isn't the case, I just think it would be great adjustment, rather than the team starting him, and then dropping an appeal to fit where they want it.
- Scott from Burke - May 8, 2012 at 1:19 PM
T: if they did that they would have to do the same when a Nationals pitcher was suspended for hitting someone…still like the idea?

Fact of the day
Information is the most powerful weapon.
Fact N°
Introverts can lead even better than extroverts, given the right circumstances.
A Wharton School study of leadership emergence found that extroversion is, unsurprisingly, the one trait that best predicts who becomes a leader in an organization, and whose leadership is most effective. The study examined this truism in more detail, however, and found that extroversion can just as often be a liability. Questionnaire data from hundreds of employees and store leaders at 130 pizza delivery stores indicates that extroverts lead best when employees are not proactive. When employees are already proactive, introverted leaders are more effective, supporting their employees' already effective work habits instead of giving them unhelpful directives.
Fact N°
People are more accurate in guessing the personalities of attractive people.
A study published in Psychological Science determined, unsurprisingly, that people display a positive bias toward people they find attractive and are more likely to rank those people highly in positive traits. In addition to this positive bias, though, subjects were also able to gauge a beautiful person's personality traits more accurately after a short conversation than they were for someone less attractive.
Fact N°
Facial symmetry can indicate the circumstances of a person's childhood.
Scientists at the University of Edinburgh have identified 15 different facial features that can predict the ease and comfort of a person's childhood. Generally, higher social status during a person's upbringing is correlated with facial symmetry (more so in men than in women). According to the researchers, symmetry indicates developmental stability, or the body's ability to overcome stress factors during growth (influenced, for example, by nutrition, disease and cigarette smoke). High status in later life appears to have no effect on facial symmetry.
Fact N°
Men who go to plays and museums are healthier than men who don't.
According to a study in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health based on data gathered from 50,000 adults, health and happiness in men is correlated with a variety of activities, including volunteering and exercise among. "Receptive culture" activities, like theater and art, are also associated with good health in men -- more so than in women. The effect is more pronounced with increased participation; men engaged in more cultural activities were happier than men involved in only a few.
Fact N°
Someone with negative traits is more likely to see those negative traits in others.
Two University of Alberta studies tested participants' levels of anger and dishonesty, then reported the results back to the participants and asked them to rate the same traits in other people. Subjects told they rated highly for anger were more likely to think another person was angry. Similarly, participants who tended to rank other people as dishonest were also less likely to rank themselves as dishonest, implying that finding negative traits in other people helps us feel less concerned about the presence of those traits in ourselves.
Fact N°
Men whose partners are overly close to their friends are more likely to experience sexual dysfunction.
"Partner betweenness," or a situation in which a man's female partner is closer to his friends than he is, is correlated with a variety of unwelcome effects in men, including erectile dysfunction. According to Cornell and University of Chicago researchers, a man who feels that his friends have come between his partner and himself is also likely to feel that he has less autonomy and privacy. Men experiencing partner "betweenness" are 92% more likely to suffer from ED than men who are closer to their friends than their partners are.
Fact N°
Women find men who are walking dogs sexier than men who are using smartphones.
Women under 35 are more likely to be attracted to a man walking a dog than a man with an expensive smartphone, according to a survey by the electronics site Retrevo.com. About half of the men surveyed believed that having an impressive smartphone was attractive, but only about a third of women agreed with them. Both men and women found reading a book more attractive than using an iPad. Nearly a third of men and women also said they found the idea of wearing a Bluetooth headset in public unattractive.

At first look I thought it would be a really nice tool kit. I used the kit to change the brakes on my car and while doing so the pin that holds the ratchet direction lever in place broke. So now it does not lock and you cant put any pressure on it before it spins freely. Spend the extra money and get the craftsman set that is made in the USA instead of this cheap made it china *********

This is a great affordable tool set with quality tools. It has come in handy many times as I had it it my truck tool box for over a year before I bought a larger craftsman set for my truck tool box. I am completely satisfied with the set. You cant beat the price either. The amount of deep sockets that come with this small set is a high light of the set, and is worth the money alone. My only complaint is the handle on the socket wrench is bulky, and hard to keep clean. It is also difficult find a breaker bar that fits over the handle.

Red Sox, Rays renew rivalry in first meeting of '14
Lackey coming off 11-whiff gem, while Bedard out to improve control
Red Sox right-hander John Lackey kept his neck clean and the box score even cleaner in his most recent start, giving up only one run and striking out 11 in eight innings against the Yankees on Wednesday.
The story of Boston's 5-1 win centered on the ejection of New York starter Michael Pineda in the second inning due to a foreign substance on his neck. While Pineda's early exit got the Yankees' bullpen plenty of work, Lackey let Red Sox relievers relax.
"I was thinking about trying to give the bullpen a rest," Lackey said. "We've got some guys down there who've been worked pretty good the last week or so, and trying to get those guys a little bit of a breather and win a ballgame."
Lackey had made the bullpen work in his previous two starts, not making it through six innings in either outing against the Yankees on April 12 or the Orioles on April 18. He also gave up six earned runs in each contest for back-to-back losses.
"Yeah, I mean, last start against the Yankees, he kind of struggled," Mike Napoli said of Lackey. "You could kind of see him being in here [in the clubhouse] that he wanted to go out there and do good tonight. It's huge overall, because he helped our bullpen with eight strong innings and he came back from two tough starts. Just overall, it was really good for our team."
As Lackey aims to channel the pitcher who began the season with back-to-back quality starts and shut down the Yankees in his latest start, Rays left-hander Erik Bedard hopes to exhibit improved control against the Red Sox.
Bedard walked four and threw 41 pitches in a three-run first that put Tampa Bay in an early hole during a 9-7 loss to Minnesota on Thursday. The southpaw lasted just four innings as he took the defeat and saw his ERA climb to 7.45.
"I couldn't really throw strikes in the first inning," Bedard said. "I was just trying to battle and throw it in the strike zone, but I had a couple of walks in the first and I got better as the game progressed."
Rays manager Joe Maddon hopes his ballclub can reverse last season's 7-12 record against the Red Sox.
"That's not good. A lot of them were really, really close games," Maddon said. "It's become that thing where the games are very close both ways, and it's about that laser-thin line of winning and losing at the end. We did not cross that line very well last year."
The Rays will be arriving to Boston early Tuesday morning after dropping three of four to the White Sox in Chicago.
"I always love going up there [to Boston]," Maddon said. "I think it's a great venue to play. But you don't look for anybody to give you inspiration. Inspiration should be there every day, regardless of who you're playing or where it is. Just get ready to play. Go play. So I don't care where we're playing and who we're playing against. I just want us to go out there with the same mindset, and we have."
Rays: Zobrist finding his way on base
Second baseman Ben Zobrist keeps getting on base atop the lineup, recording two hits each in the past two games. Zobrist has 11 multihit games and his 16 walks are tied with teammate Matt Joyce for the seventh-best mark in the American League.
He has reached base safely in 23 of 26 games and has scored 19 runs. Zobrist will look to keep his good play going against Lackey, a pitcher he has succeeded against in the past.
Zobrist is batting .407 (11-for-27) with three doubles, four RBIs, five walks and only three strikeouts in his career against Lackey.
Red Sox: Napoli dynamite in middle of Sox order
Napoli has been cleaning up in the cleanup spot of Boston's order, posting team-best numbers with a .304 (28-for-92) batting average, five homers, 15 RBIs and ranking second among the Red Sox with 12 walks and a .940 OPS.
Napoli homered four times and drove in 27 runs in a stellar April last year, but he has improved his strikeout-to-walk ratio in the season's opening month in 2014. He has 12 walks to 28 strikeouts this year compared to six walks and 40 strikeouts in '13.
Worth noting
• Evan Longoria is batting .323 (10-for-31) with two homers, three doubles, five RBIs, three walks and four strikeouts against Lackey.
• A.J. Pierzynski, who finished 0-for-4 with a strikeout in the designated hitter spot Sunday, is batting .429 (9-for-21) with two home runs and four RBIs against Bedard.
• This is the first meeting between the Red Sox and the Rays since the clubs finished first and second in the AL East last season.
"They kept us out of first place last year. They definitely did," Maddon said.

The UX Design Process for the Boxee Beta
More than a year ago I very proudly announced that Boxee, the much-loved social media center software company, had hired me as the user experience designer for their beta. In the five months that I worked with them, I conducted user interviews and usability testing to identify people's needs, behaviors and frustrations, and redesigned the app's navigation and key screens.
Earlier this month the Boxee beta was released, and the consensus so far is that the overall experience is a huge improvement over the alpha. While I have not been formally engaged with Boxee since May (such is the life of an independent consultant), I am incredibly pleased to see that many of my ideas were implemented and made all the better by Boxee's small but outstanding team of visual designers and developers.
The Process
I conducted interviews with six prospective users (people who at the time had never used Boxee) and five existing users. I also performed usability testing with five existing users (three on their laptop and two on their home TV).
For the user research, I asked a boatload of questions about people's media consumption habits and attitudes. Of the 11 people I interviewed, two people subscribed to basic cable without DVR, five people subscribed to digital cable with DVR, and four people did not subscribe to cable at all.
Everyone I interviewed watches TV and movies using their computers, at least in part; approximately half had substantial personally-stored media collections and almost all used streaming media online. All interviewees also consumed digital music and photographs to some degree.
These individuals all considered themselves tech savvy, but represented both ends of the spectrum: from tinkerers to zealots. While some were programmers, others worked in technology only tangentially as business analysts, writers, designers, and sales representatives. They also had varying use of social networking websites, Web applications, blogs, and other websites.
The questions I asked during my interviews are below.
User Interview Questions
- Tell me a bit about yourself. Where do you live? Where are you from? What do you do?
- What kind of computer do you have?
- What kind of TV do you have? What stuff do you have hooked up to your TV?
- Tell me about your TV watching habits. Cable? Satellite? How often? Where?
- Who do you usually watch TV with? How do you decide what to watch?
- What kinds of shows do you watch? Are there shows that you watch regularly? How do you remember to watch them?
- What are your movie watching habits?
- Do you watch movies on your computer? How? Where? When?
- Do you watch videos, movies or TV shows online? How? How often? Where?
- Do you subscribe to Netflix or similar? How do you use it?
- Do you use Hulu, YouTube or other online video sites?
- What is your personal movie collection like?
- Are you using any media centers now? Which ones? Experience with them?
- What is your personal music collection like?
- What are your music listening habits? How and where do you listen?
- Where do you find music?
- Do you listen to music on the Internet? Where?
- Have you ever played music at a party you were hosting? How? Where?
- Have you ever played music through your TV? What do you use? How do you navigate? Keyboard/remote
- What is your personal photo collection like?
- Where are your photos stored?
- What photo applications do you use?
- What photo sites do you use?
- Have you ever displayed your photos on your TV? How? What do you use? How do you navigate? Keyboard/remote
- What websites or blogs do you frequent?
- Do you comment on blogs? Review sites?
- Do you use Facebook? How?
- Other social networking sites? Twitter?
- Other Web apps?
Usability Testing
Not only did we want to get to know prospective target users of the Boxee application, but it was also important that we receive input on how existing users are currently using the system. To measure the ease of use of several areas of the Boxee experience, I conducted usability tests with five existing users: three of whom most regularly use Boxee on their TVs, and two who primarily use Boxee on their laptops.
The usability tests started with each user simply walking me through their typical usage scenarios, from launching Boxee, to finding a movie or TV show to watch, to scanning through their music. Then after approximately 30 minutes of this natural navigation and discussion, I asked each participant to perform a series of tasks. This helped to identify breakdowns in user flow, usability flaws and bugs, or generally any problematic areas in the experience.
The tasks were as follows:
- Start watching one of your favorite TV shows.
- You just realized that you've already seen this episode. Switch to the next episode.
- You're done watching this show for now. Switch to another favorite TV show.
- Our friend is in an episode of Army Wives. Find it.
- Now you're in the mood for some music. Play one of your favorite songs.
- Check out the latest episode of This American Life on NPR.
These usability tests resulted in a wide array of findings, and several themes emerged across participants. I have collected the most pervasive and significant areas of difficulty and have provided my recommendations on how to resolve the problem. The issues are organized by content area.
Personas and Scenarios
To aid in the design and development of the beta, I developed three personas derived from insights I learned in my research to depict Boxee's target users; I called them a Practical Dad, a Techie Bachelor, and a Principled Fan. The personas do not reflect a single person, but rather are an amalgamation of various interviews. There is a lot of intellectual property captured in the personas so I will refrain from sharing them here.
I also developed a set of high-level scenarios to describe how each of the personas would interact with an ideal Boxee application. The scenarios helped us envision the right workflow, step-by-step, and allowed us to identify the key features necessary to meet users' needs. A selection of the scenarios we aimed to support are:
- I want to see if a movie is available online
- I want to subscribe to a current season of a TV show
- I want to pick up where I left off in a movie or TV show
From the scenarios I was able to draw out an extensive list of features across multiple areas of the app that would need to be implemented in order to meet our target users' needs. Overall, we wanted to provide users with greater ability to discover content across sources, easier ways to sort and filter lists, and quick access to their favorite programming.
It was a long, long list, and not everything that ideally belongs in the app was realistic for our release schedule so we were forced to triage. We started first by prioritizing scenarios, and then marked each feature as Must Have, Should Have, Nice to Have, and Won't Have. This helped focus the team on what we needed to tackle immediately.
Flows and Wireframes
Now with the full set of features we were intending to implement, I set out to weave them together in an easy to use way that would make for a pleasurable experience. I drew flow diagrams to indicate how a user would navigate from screen to screen, and then created a series of wireframes of the key screens to recommend layout, prominence of features and content, necessary functionality and data display.
The Outcome
Take a look at some of the key screens of the app below, and see how my wireframes laid the groundwork for the beta's redesign.
Home Screen
TV Shows
In the Press
Ars Technica
"The program's user interface has undergone a significant transformation that simplifies navigation and makes Internet content easier to access."
"The new version is really a complete overhaul of the app — it's received a new, sexier UI that makes it easier to browse through the service's content (and anything you might have saved locally too)."
"The UI overhaul is significantly better…"
"Yes, there are many methods for putting web video on your TV, but Boxee is the most elegant solution I've seen. For the beta release, the whole user experience has undergone a slick redesign."
CNET News
"…new beta has a completely redone interface that is far superior to the alpha's."
"From the outset, it looks a whole lot more pretty and user friendly."
"What looked impressive during the demo was how cleanly it aggregated both local and online sources of video content."
"We're particularly fond of the new global menu for quick shuffling through the menu and to shortcuts."
What Do You Think?
If you're a Boxee user, I would love to hear your thoughts on the beta. Praise, criticisms, and questions are all welcome.
Add new comment
I really like the interface at this point. I've used the alpha quite a bit and the changes were dramatic. I was also able to learn the new interface very quickly. My one issue with Boxee is that even though it's in alpha, I still seem to find software bugs with it. I'm not an active participant in reporting this issues. I am however looking forward to the Boxee Box! Which I'm sure will be stable and quite a lot of fun! I hope they can get the price down under $200 USD.
Great job with the interface although I'm sure there's a lot more that can be done. Keep it up!
Regarding David's comments on non-techy audiences: I understand your frustration, but that simply wasn't Boxee's target audience for the beta. Their set top box, coming out sometime this year, is the product that is meant for more mainstream audiences. Keep in mind that their desktop app is still only in beta and the whole team understands that it has a ways to go before it's a truly mainstream product.
Its is a great reference for the rest of us moving into de the user experience arena. I believe it means so much for the community, I look at what you do and it is, for the lack of a better word, inspirational.
Thank you
Thank you for a look behind the scenes, and being so open with your process(something missing in the design community).
Great Job :)
Aaron I
@Kamran - If you have an iPhone, there's an app for that... (at least the remote part of your comment) :)
I use the Boxee beta on my laptop connected to my HDTV (so, 1920x1080 resolution).
One thing that irritated me was lack of a better remote than the keyboard. You can use the mouse pretty well, but it would have been nice for the beta to support Xbox 360 remotes (since I was using my Xbox before). I was able to get it working in a limited fashion using Xpadder but it got complicated because Boxee uses different keys when navigating and when watching a video (making it not-so-easy to configure a controller). If it was built-in, it'd be a lot better.
I also noticed that Boxee crashes or just has a hard time doing anything in a limited internet situation. It won't close right away, it crashes, everything takes forever to load, etc. if the net is slow or being interrupted.
Interesting article on how X designers actually work.. Insightful. I recommend the use of Justinmind Prototyper that allows to do all this in a single app (remote user tests, navigation flows & scenariios, specs docs, wireframes and prototyping) and without a single line of code!
The overhaul is a significant improvement. The interface was always what kept me from using Boxee in Alpha. And this insight into the redesign is great to read.
But I still don't think the interface is nearly good enough. Here's why:
Practical Dad, Techie Bachelor, and Principled Fan. Those are great people to design for. But in my opinion, an important group was overlooked: the Non-techy family member or girlfriend who will also have to use it.
If I were still a bachelor, I would definitely cancel cable and go full-Boxee, even in Beta. I think it's good enough. If my wife were a savvy techy, we would both enjoy the benefits of Boxee. But I'm married to someone who's not a techy. This prevents me from making the leap. She wouldn't want to always ask me for help whenever she wants to watch a show. She knows how to use the DVR, or watch TV. If Boxee can be that simple, I'll consider switching.
Most of this is not Whitney's fault. It's just the weird way the app works: Some TV networks' content is found under Boxee Apps (CNN, BBC, etc). Others have shows listed in the TV section. If a person isn't used to the idea of a cable box that has apps, with all sorts of options all over the place, and different areas for different kinds of content, how are they supposed to find anything?
It's definitely much better than it used to be. But I think it still needs a lot of work. Boxee shouldn't ignore non-techy family members if they want wide adoption. Bachelors don't have to consider this, but people with families need lowest-common-denominator simplicity in design, with all the power still under the hood.
(I'm not a UX Designer. Just a consumer who wants to quit cable).
Thanks for the valuable insights! I hope that the majority of redesign projects will follow this UX Design process soon in the future :-)

Apr 23, 2015
Mar 29, 2015Prometheus is definitely the "prequel" to the Alien films in that the sets, story, and even the character names are taken directly from the trilogy. Scott must have wanted to avoid the dreaded prequel brand that seems to infuriate most fans, but this one is really good! Prometheus is what going to the movies is about: 2 hours of action, thrills, scares, and jaw dropping special effects!
Jan 29, 2015Uma incrível jornada no espaço,com encontros assustadores,um macabro filme,com alienígenas estupidamente brutais e violentos. Ridley Scott entrega um filme com efeitos visuais brilhantes. E todos os atores são muito talentosos Noomi Rapace,Michael Fassbender,Guy Pearce,Idris Elba,Logan Marshall-Green E Charlize Theron que é uma vadia maldita neste brilhante filme.
Dec 28, 2014I strongly dislike this movie. It is illogical, plot-hole-filled, pointlessly gruesome, and the plot was pretty slow too. The characters do not make sense. I rate it 1 because it looks good.
Dec 25, 2014
Dec 19, 2014Unlike many people, I highly enjoyed Prometheus. It has a confusing story so you can try to figure it out yourself instead of the director spoon feeding us information. Prometheus is a great movie with solid characters and stunning visuals. Never once did I feel bored in this movie. 8/10 (great)

Nov 10, 2014I don't understand why people are so negative towards this movie. I felt like it was a great prequel to the Alien franchise and was well done. I enjoyed the themes in the movie and I am very excited to see Prometheus 2
Nov 9, 2014Even if it isn't original, Prometheus has jaw dropping visuals and a surprisingly great storyline. Couple that with top notch acting and a tense atmosphere, what you will get is a great sci-fi/horror flick.

Sep 6, 2014Prometheus is Ridley Scott's prequel to Alien.This movie has outstanding visuals, more science fiction than the original movies regarding to the creatures, more mystery and really good performances.
Sep 3, 2014Essentially out of the Alien-storybook, Prometheus is a moving discovery of life beyond Earth. There is no shortage of suspense and story--Prometheus is enthralling.

Jul 28, 2014
Jul 22, 2014Prometheus is no where near as good as it should have been, but is reasonably entertaining due to the incredible special effects, and the magnetic performance delivered from Michael Fassbender.

Jun 16, 2014
Jun 3, 2014For a summer blockbuster film, "Prometheus" asks surprisingly exciting and intriguing questions about human existence. It doesn't give us any answers which is a little disappointing, but the film still rocks; I don't know anything about 2D, but in 3D, this film looked fabulous in its gripping atmosphere and stunning CGI.

Mar 31, 2014Better than literalists give it, worse than the devouts give it credit for, Prometheus is not without it flaws in plot and not without it's triumphs in cinematography and strong acting from Noomi Rapace and Michael Fassbender, and due to the ending, lends promise to an adequate follow-up.
Feb 25, 2014I wanted to like this movie and I was excited to finally see it when it made it to DVD. I'm sorry but I was bored and frustrated by the story. It dragged along as the characters (supposed geniuses from their fields) did the stupidest things you can think of. I don't know what else to say about other than I personally thought it was terrible.
Feb 8, 2014"Prometheus" was a gripping movie experience for me. It had grim, but beautiful visuals, great use and combination of CGI and 3D, sharply directed action scenes and above everything else, a story that asks unanswered questions about human existence. Sure, the ending probably didn't deserve an A+, but as a whole, "Prometheus" was still pretty awesome.

Jan 11, 2014This unfortunate movie was marketed as the prequel to his 1978 film Alien, when in fact it is nothing short of a slightly related disaster. The only positive parts of the film were Michael Fassbender's 'If-I-Were-A-Real-Boy' robot character David, the cinematography and the special effects (I believed that vagina monster was coming for me, I really did).

Dec 14, 2013Even if it isn't original, Prometheus has jaw dropping visuals and a surprisingly great storyline. Couple that with top notch acting and a tense atmosphere, what you will get is a great sci-fi/horror flick.
Dec 9, 2013Prometheus' visuals are absolutely stunning. The often mentioned plot holes in Prometheus can be explained away if you're willing to dig deep enough-and for me- certainly didn't detract from the film in anyway.
Dec 8, 2013Not a bad movie but yes couldn't live up it's hype. Movie is slow, not the alien sci-fi with mindless action type. It even looks like some fictional Discovery show for most of the time but it's a good movie, definitely worth your money.
Dec 5, 2013This is a really great movie simpliy put and if you have half a brain and use it to think you won't have a problem understanding this movie at all.....
Nov 23, 2013This movie was a ok sci fi movie. It was a TERRIBLE alien sequel. The charecters were uninteresting, made bad decisions (by horror movie standards, no weapons on an alien planet? Come on) and had mediocre dialogue. The movie wasn't scary, had plot holes, and no aliens alien in it until the end. Only see this if their is nothing better on tv.

Nov 7, 2013A year old now and I still have nightmares and sweats at how spectacularly bad this film is. I hate you now Ridley. Anyone giving this film more than 3 needs a lobotomy. Or they enjoy Alvin and the Chipmunks movies.
Oct 27, 2013This movie is actually awful. As far a sci-fi and/or horror are concerned. The characters are so stupid as to fill the movie with plot holes, its attempts at being deep are total shots in the dark, and I guess it's supposed to be a really visually appealing movie but nothing the high budget special effects were showing were actually that interesting.
Oct 6, 2013Despite its clear imperfections, I liked Prometheus. Visually stunning and with a great performance from Michael Fassbender, there is a certain something that sets Prometheus apart from other films of the genre. It is profound, ambitious, and fascinating, but suffers from poor decision-making on part of the writers.

Sep 6, 2013Please make me unsee this. This is the worst movie ever, I almost puked when I see it. Nothing entertaining, just nothing. Failed action, failed horror. This movie tries to be priquel to Alien but failing hard in plot.

Jul 29, 2013epic cinematography beautiful but epically predictable no real scares so many unresolved plot holes .
you will find rooting for the aliens by the end -
Jul 27, 2013Prometheus was good and entertaining. Although it does not live up to Ridley Scott's earlier films it is a engaging and decent sci-fi film. It wasn't anything spectacular but this film certainly does not deserve all the negative reviews it has gotten. Plain and simple it doesn't live up to the expectations of the audience but that does not outright make it a bad film.
Jul 22, 2013Me encantan las peliculas de ciencia ficcion, ahora se relaciona con los origenes de Alien, tiene buenos efectos especiales, reparto etc...
Que no tiene sentido la historia? pues por eso se llama ciencia ficcion, no se pongan tan payasos.. -

Jun 27, 2013Beautiful, and terrible. Picture a child trying desperately to impress its parents, and in doing so destroys everything around them. Now that I think of it, this review has a better narrative interpretation than the movie. At least it looked good.
Jun 27, 2013A beautifully filmed movie that makes you really piece things together. If you love movies that make you re-watch to figure it out, this is one of the best of 2012.. I can't wait until the next one!

May 9, 2013I have tried to watch this with an open mind, I did. it's simple, there are far better so called Bollywood movies then this.
It's hard to describe how bad this is as I wanted to start of with a positive note, I just can't.
No story what so ever.
Aliens? Please, this is E.T call earth, that's it nothing more. -

Apr 20, 2013I really feel that this may have flaws but i wont accept people getting a ZERO 0 for this film so i ll get it a 10/10 although it may have some flaws etc the basic concept, back round and fantasy behind this movie is outstanding.
Apr 10, 2013Dear lord what a bad story. Either they had a 10 hour script they had to cut to bits to fit into 2 hours or the execs got ahold of the script last minute and made the writers change everything into a vague mess.

Apr 6, 2013I found a new word foe disappointing "Prometheus," I`m sorry but this movie just did not do it for me, it was not what I expected. It`s a movie worth watching, but it was not as epic as I was hoping for it to be. I did watch the Avengers the week before, so I must say that is hard to follow lol

Mar 20, 2013If you manage to suspend your belief through a series of insane plot-holes and character missteps, you'll get to see some very pretty special effects.
Mar 16, 2013I understand this maybe the most love/hate movie of 2012, mark me down as love. From the first scenes visuals to the thought provoking story, this is a worthy predecessor to the Alien franchise.
Mar 15, 2013A movie from which nothing meaningful can be extracted. A failure to Aliens as a prequel, a failure to itself as a stand alone film. Under-used Charlize Theron. Had an ending without a resolution or conclusion to anything. This movie has an amazing universe and set peices but does nothing interesting with them. Just one big disappointment.
Mar 11, 2013A Masterpiece. This film is breathtaking. If you were lucky enough to catch it in 3D like I did then you know this is how 3D films should be shot. It wasn't forced, it was just right.

Feb 8, 2013This is the most disappointed I've been in a film in quite some time. I was really looming forward to Ridley Scott getting back to sci fi but this really missed the mark. The writing is so sloppy and the characters are mind numbimgly stupid. One take away is good effects.

Jan 18, 2013I like this movie a lot. Its the new version of Alien. I don't see Alien so i don't know how he is or Alien is better, I like the story and I like the cast, especially Michael Fassbender.
Jan 10, 2013One of the best of the year. I was a fan of the Aliens series and this shares a common background but takes things in a very new direction. special effects and scenery were excellent. Characters were all well cast and Noomi Rapace is absolutely phenomenal as the tough girl who has to survive some ridiculous events.
Scott may always have had an eye on the box office, but from "Alien" and "Thelma & Louise" on, he has made women into heroines. In that regard, he's still ahead of the curve. Rapace's scene is a classic of its kind; it tops John Hurt's notorious misfortunes in "Alien."
It's a different sort of experience: a stately, somewhat plodding but endurable science-fiction saga.
There's definite mastery here, but it's hardly a masterpiece.
