Dick Allen

OMG hit and run on 2 consecutive pitches.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 10:08 PM) How about a balk, wild pitch, and then a sac fly? You're Batman

Pods needs to go here. He's had 1 steal since the All Star break, and was picked off when he was very fortunately awarded a steal.

QUOTE(champ @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 10:04 PM) Riske proves that most of you have no idea what you're talking about. That's why its a good thing that your here, you can teach us.

Riske has been awesome.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 10:00 PM) Wow, how tall is Sandy? He's about 6'4". He's a huge guy. His legs are gigantic.

Riske still scares me.

Have they ever mentioned how bad Thome's back spasms are?

If Konerko is out for any amount of time, KW may kick himself for not sweetening the pot for Soriano.

Konerko getting xrayed. That would be a huge blow. Hopefully Thome's back spasms subside. This could be a dark day for the Sox.

Ozzie's a genius.

The Sox need a K here. Thornton has a much better chance at that than Riske. Will Ozzie play the infield in?

Please no Riske.

K please.

Losing this game would be heartbreaking.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 09:29 PM) Nice piece of hitting by Grudz if he faced the Sox 162 times a year, he'd be a first ballot HOFer.

Grudz usually hits the Sox pretty well

QUOTE(Mr. Showtime @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 09:21 PM) The power.... Its the prayers and the vitamins, brother.

Liriano got scratched for the Twins tomorrow night. He has a sore elbow.

How about a steal Pods?

Its started off like Buerhle was going to get hammered again tonight, but he really picked it up. Another start like tonight and he may be back to normal.

Good to get Buerhle out. He gets a good start in his mind. Its hot and a meltdown this inning could have destroyed all the confidence he may have gained tonight.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 08:26 PM) FWIW, I asked my fiance if I could come down the aisle to "Real American", but she said no. At one of my friend's weddings, we were eating dinner to Zepplin tunes. I guess the bride's aunt came up and complained that the music was too loud.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 08:15 PM) is Shealy a good prospect? Seems like some people were interested him during the deadline A lot of people like him. He is 26 years old though.

QUOTE(hogan873 @ Aug 1, 2006 -> 08:13 PM) Hulk Hogan? Can't be Paul Hogan. Ben, maybe? It has to be Col. Hogan.
