fathom Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 28, 2010 -> 12:28 AM) Good god, I have to hear that crap from Cubs fans, now here too? What, it was an honest question and not complaining about attendance tonight or anything else. I asked the same question back on the Stanley Cup final night as well. I couldn't imagine how anyone in Chicago would watch the Sox over the Bears tonight, that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Turned on Sox game to see one play, and it was a pathetic excuse for hustling by Manny. If Ozzie had any balls, he'd pull Manny. I really enjoyed Stone's quip of "at least Manny hustled". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the players feel safe now that they know Ozzie is coming back so they think they don't have to hustle anymore. Anyway on Manny's play, I didn't think it was that big of a deal. The ball was hit right to the scond baseman with Manny being on first base. I thought Stone's comment was unecessary. At least Manny ripped a single.

I was actually writing something on the computer and just glancing at the TV from time to time. I didn't realize that was a "hardway" DP requiring a tag at second. That being the case, I'll have to agree with you that it was pretty pathetic of Manny. I was all for the acquisition of Manny. I figured he'd hit like crazy for a month, get the Sox into the playoffs, go completely ballistic in the playoffs and help the Sox win a championship. But even if that's how it would have worked out, I would have advocated letting him go after the season. The trick with Manny is to for a team to dump him before he dumps the team. He wont be back next year anyway. And I still think it was worth the gamble picking him up.

I was confuzed about the hate post on Garcia when these same folks seem willing to ignore Buerhle's fall off. I am a big supporter and all that, but there is no way a big game pitcher can continue to give up doube digits in hits allowed in a game and win. Now we are at 9 hits allowed through 5 and its 4-0. He did come back good against Ortiz and Martinez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 According to Gameday, it looks like Morel just got robbed of a HR in the 7th inning? Anyone confirm? It shows an out on a ball that says landed over the wall in LF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was laying on the ground for quite a while and looked to be in extreme pain. He finally limped off the field with Ozzie and Herm. Hopefully just a real bad bruise but you never know.
