Sox It To Em Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 07:47 PM) Totally disagree. Our hitters have gotten taken by the Rays pitching. +1 Bucknor is a very, very minor reason for this loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangeSox Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 (edited) QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 07:48 PM) If you missed the Iwamura pitch before the homer, then please just shut up about this, as that was one of the worst non-calls you'll see. that. Yeah, the offense is still to blame for leaving all of those runners on base, but Buckner has been absolutely terrible tonight.

fathom Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 QUOTE (SoCalSouthSider59 @ Oct 4, 2008 -> 12:48 AM) Hey, it ain't Mark's fault, he pitched a solid game, blame it on our inept offense! Let's not act like Cubs fans now. He wasn't great...but he gave us a chance to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwolf68 Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 QUOTE (rangercal @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 07:47 PM) on tv too. Where are you getting your strikes and balls? The Umpire? Im watching the damn game...and the curve to Swisher was a strike. If you have some extenstential view of it that gives you a better view than I then Id love to see it, but the pitch to Swisher was STRIKE 3...

zenryan Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I have confidence we'll now score a third run in this game and lose 4-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could have easily won both games and what happens? LOL. I totally agree with ya there....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiderman Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Keeping Buerhle in the game didn't work out, but I'm not going to complain. He's pitched a great game, and Ozzie was hoping to get one more inning out of him. It didn't work. Probably won't matter with our offense not capable of scoring without homeruns.

Sorry, I saw nothing wrong with any calls...in fact the 1-0 pitch that WAS called a ball was VERY CLOSE....it could have been called a strike. Swisher has to swing the damn bat in that situation.

And you know what...I believe they can...While this team irks me and they piss me off, Im not bailng yet. We have 2 home games w/ Danks and Floyd. If Danks can get us the W then momentum may be back with us...I think the Rays end it in 4 or we take it in 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
