That was a crappy pop up, Lexi.

I can't imagine the Sox bringing him back, Tizzle. But he probably still has some baseball left in him. Texas?

Randy baby. This is the night our bullpen is doing well except for Bobby. Isn't our team crazy? Some bright spots every night, but usually something putrid that costs us. Why the frick can't we score a couple runs in extra innings?

I can't believe Gordon handled that weird hop. Uh oh. Is that Randy Williams? Pena has been pitching pretty well of late. Hope Oz knows what he's doing. Pena looked like a guy who might be able to last 3-4 innings ... maybe.

You'd almost wish Jermaine would have said he had a sore back so he wouldn't have to play at all this month. I'd rather have Danks up here even if he's not ready. All he had to do was poke a hit there, any hit. Wow.

If Jermaine gets two strikes on him these days, it's OVA. He has no chance.

Lots of goats again tonight. Wow, Jermaine is like Rios. Both should try to make outs and they'd stroke hits. You'd think the law of averages would have had jermaine be the hero.

That last outside pitch he coulda hammered to rf for a single. Bad, Jermaine, bad.

This game is another Greg Walker special. Not good for his job security.

this guy is throwing way too fast. We need to make contact somehow.

Can't scratch out a run. One out.

Beckham seems to make a good play about every game defensively now.

12th inning. Why not plate 2-3 runs??

I just turned on the game. I assume this one's on Bobby.

Don't worry. I'm trying to stop beating a dead horse. I just want to win and it looks like we may not again tonight.

KC is on a roll, but the fans here don't believe it's progress. The Royals tend to play well in September for some reason.

I don't hate the White Sox. I agree I am as clueless as anyone else.

You guys that say the NL sucks ... do you realize we just got Peavy?? Why are you assuming he'll thrive in the AL?

You guys following the Tiger games crack me up. When are you gonna believe we're toast? We're 5-6 in our last 11. We STILL have done nothing to pick up any ground. Last night's game was horrible.

Exactly. Every year there's a story from the loser teams' managers on how spring trianing will be different and we'll learn how to bunt. Never happens. Don't get all worked up. What Oz wants (and he probably won't ever get) is for a guy to be able to actually put down a bunt during the few occasions he calls for it. Stories like this are common this time of year. "Spring training will be different!" Sure, Oz. Not exactly. It'll be the same with a few more bunts maybe or some speech about how to bunt and showing of a video or two. They might waste a cuople days trying to teach these slugs how to actuallly put down a sac bunt.

We're 5-6 since beating the Cubs. Can you imagine if we just were winning series of late? We'd have cut the deficit vs. Detroit to a reasonable margin entering those six games vs. them. 5-6? Wasted opportunity.

Your last post makes it sound less threatening than the above sentence. If you didn't mean it as badly as it sounded, fine. But you asked if I was a Twins fan, then said "there's nothing wrong about wishing injury that you did not induce." That means you are wishing injury on a human being. Why don't you show some class and edit that post and get it off the board. It truly is a bad, bad sentiment and makes you appear like a classless fool whether you meant it that way or not. I also get defensive when discussing back injuries because any surgery on that area is so serious. I know a guy who had a fairly minor back problem, operated on and he's using a cane now and he's only in his late 30s.

Yup. I do think they need Granderson to kick ass to have any chance in the playoffs and have the rotation work so Verlander goes in Game One.

I also would rather have the Twins for some reason. I might change my mind if they kick our ass in the Cell. We really should win those games or at least 2 of 3.

How old are you? If you truly wish injury on a fellow human being, IMO something is wrong with you or the way you were raised. If this is considered a personal attack, turn me into the humane police force. Your second sentence is the worst single sentence I've ever read on Soxtalk. There can be none worse than that sentence. Ever. We are all anonymous on here. If you wrote that in a letter to the editor to the Trib and they printed it, your name would be mud in the entire city of Chicago. Nobody wishes ill on a fellow human being in a civilized society.
