Why do I sense a Butler bomb?

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Aug 14, 2011 -> 02:36 AM) Last year and this year have seemed the same one extension of stupidity I think it is a complete house cleaning that is needed GM, Mrg and personnel I think it'll happen. This team has QUIT in September written all over it. A pathetic/give up finish will be the end of Oz for sure and hopefully Kenny.

Jake deserves credit. I dunno how he only gave up four runs (oops he could be charged with five) with that stuff tonight. It's either a.) he knows how to pitch. Or b.) It's Kansas City he was facin'

Uh oh. Will Melky hit a bomb into the Milky Way?

Gotta yank him now, but Crain ain't much better. 2 outs one on.

Did Hawk say rain was comin? I'm watching the KC broadcast.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 14, 2011 -> 02:31 AM) No way should Peavy be allowed to start this inning. Whether right or wrong, Oz is afraid of the bulldog Peavy. You don't take him out til he's ready to come out. But if he does escape 7, we don't have to worry bout him starting the eighth I don't think.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 14, 2011 -> 02:29 AM) Of course, god forbid we get a clutch hit. Something that's sad is if roles were reversed, Lillibridge would steal 2nd there against the Sox without even a throw. That is 100 percent true.

Can we keep it a one-run game and get one more shot at lousy Luke? Or do they tee off on Jake in the seventh?

LOL.

Lilly comes thru Now we need a clutch hit. My god. Come through and tie it please.

My god, Lilly, SWING!

We're dead. Should I be the first to say, it's ova? Horrible at bat, Morel. Horrible.

Now it's 0-2. Wish he woulda taken that pitch and let him steal.

Losing to Chen, then Luke is as bad as it can get. We need runs.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Aug 14, 2011 -> 02:21 AM) Are the Sox the only team in baseball that can't beat the Royals? Pretty much. Tampa didn't break a sweat in taking all four in Tampa right before this series as u know.

Pretty impressive he only gives up four runs in his six-inning stint cause he didn't have a heater tonight IMO. That should be it for Jake, but Oz may trot him out there again, cause it seems Jake gets pissed when he gets taken out, right?

I wish I could bat against Jake. That pitch to Jonny was meat again. Nice catch Juanie.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 14, 2011 -> 02:15 AM) Way to try and pull that slider Carlos. A loss tonight, and you start thinking the season could be all but over after next weekend if we continue to struggle. I can't see the current version of the Sox being able to make up 6 games on a superior Tigers team. This team is incapable of getting over .500 IMO so believing that, the season in my mind has been OVA.

Bad bad hitting. Both Oz and Yost will leave their pitchers in too long but this could be the knockout inning vs. Jake and we let Luke off the hook with CQ and Paulie failing. Our only hope this half inning is liners right at people or shots to the wall caught.

Cmon CQ, this guy has nothing.

Hoch is dumb enough to throw Paulie another high fastball.

That 2-0 pitch to Omar was meat. The 2-1 pitch screamed 'hit me.' I don't like Omar no more.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 14, 2011 -> 02:09 AM) Now our #2 htiter will bunt, killing our chance of a big response inning. Frankly I'd rather see Omar bunt than hit into a DP.

Hoch is as bad tonight as Jake. We need to take advantage and take the lead here. Nice bloop, Juan.
