Here we go again. Forkball, forkball, forkball, etc...

Hope Jose doesn't keep depending on his splitter over and over and over again.

Are noisemakers allowed at baseball games? That has to be a distraction to Jose, whomever has that air horn and blowing it as he delivers.

Didn't want to start a new thread over it, but for those who were wondering what happened to KC, he was on over the phone today and explained that he was really addicted to drugs, alcohol, and gambling. Had to go to rehab multiple times. Said he did every drug but heroin and did a great job of acting like he was fine. Nobody believed he was on drugs cuz he seemed to take good care of himself. Said he was very suicidal for a long time. He basically agreed to come on as long as his new DVD got plugged. He was pissed that he got fired over the phone, even though he got fired multiple times to his face but Howard saved him.

Finally got it, and amazed. I did my house and it even has my truck sitting in the driveway. Wonder how old it is.

Finally a team on Michigan's level.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 03:00 AM) You don't pitch shingo this long. It's that simple. You're up 1, your closer should be out there. It's also that simple.

I'm with everyone here. Hawk's explanation for no Dustin is ridiculous.

How long is this f***ing fireworks show? Bugging the piss outta me.

Anyone notice lately that Pods has been swinging a lot more freely, instead of taking pitches and working a count? Hope the disease isn't spreading to him.

2 groundball outs for Shingo. Well done. Kudos to Vizcaino for pitching a good 2 and a thirds inning. Ozzie pulled him at the right time.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:22 AM) Hermanson will not pitch unless it's a save situation. Ozzie is on the record saying that is a 100 pct guarantee. That's garbage if he is gonna be like that. He is our best pitcher available, you have to use him. The reason he has been shaky lately is probably cuz he isn't getting consistent work.

Would be a lot sexier if she was standing in the rain like that.

Can't download, said it is taking a breather.

Foulke's been getting hit a lot!

It's clear Dustin needs more work than he is getting. Be it in close game or not, winning or losing. Awesome job. Maybe IRod can go yell some more in the dugout.

Politte We could easily have 4 pitchers on the All Star team.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 01:17 AM) I could be up big if Christina Aguilera was wiggling that ass in my face. See avatar -----> Happy?

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 01:13 AM) KC-Minny tied at 3 in the 4th, Minny got something goin with 1st and 2nd no outs 2 of KC's runs came on DP's with the bags loaded and no outs. They could be up big.

Another pick off where the guy wasn't even running. Looked like Logan put his hand on Paulie's foot instead of the base or else he may of gotten back.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 12:16 AM) Who predicted that Widger would be off the team by July? He may just be write. He is still good defensively and a good pitch-caller. Uribe doubles with 1 out. YES. In Widger's defense, he only plays once a week. If he calls a good game and the pitcher does his job, I'd be happy. If it comes to that, Burke is a servicable back up catcher.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 29, 2005 -> 12:11 AM) Instead of playing for the 3 run homer like we have been the last 3 games, maybe we should try a hit-and-run just to shake things up. Actually a good point. Don't remember the last time we tried this or even a bunt.

You know, a smart MLB hitter will get into a 2-0 count and just look center in, and make the pitcher make a good pitch, but not Joe Crede. He's swinging out of the strike zone. I don't think Randa is the answer, but I'm starting to lean towards the group of guys that think we should get him.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 28, 2005 -> 11:59 PM) 9-3 with Frank in the line-up. As I say this, the Ump doesn't give Frank a time-out and he K's. WTF was that? Seems this home ump has a vendetta against Frank. Rung him up late in the 1st and now this.
