Quentin is amazing. You watch his home run and the replay of his home run and he makes it look easy. Watching Thome, Crede, AJP, Swisher and BA, you realize it's not easy. Three guys in our lineup got hits tonight and we won. Thanks to the pitching and the Amazing Quentin. I just can't believe how he attacks the ball and pops it over the fence and our proven sluggers continue to make weak outs. GO SOX!

I hate to be a dick, but my god, even AJP is horses*** right now. What pathetic excuses for at bats. How the hell are we in first place???

Do we have one good hitter on this team? And that's it? I'm starting to think so.

Torii Hunter would look good on our team right now considering when Swish swings the air goes 'swish' at the plate.

I didn't realize that. I was just looking at his current 1-for-16 and figured he was toast at No. 2.

I was praying he'd actually try to make contact and drill a single like Konerko did during our WS season. But I must confess last night I also was fearing the easy DP.

We are in first place. There's no way Oz and/or KW will fire him during the season. So we might as well quit moaning about Walker and wanting him canned. Like many said ... you think Thome, Konerko, Crede, Swisher, A.J., Dye are going to listen to a hitting coach, any hitting coach? I'd rather continue blasting the players when they suck than dredge up the fire Walker thread, because he's not going anywhere.

Nice attempt by Ozzie, but it's time to reshuffle the order again. A.J. is not hitting. Who's the next guy to get his shot at the No. 2 slot?

Fathom and others who went to that atrocious game.... Was it as obvious in the stadium as watching on TV that after the second inning it was guaranteed we were not going to score a run?? That was a sad, sad hitting effort again. We win eight in a row ... we better not lose tomorrow and be barrelling toward a significant losing streak after playing well. What a dysfunctional offense! Great pitching AGAIN by the Sox.

Oh my god. Excellent pitching. If our team has any balls, they'll score 2-3 this half inning against Mr. White Sox killer.

Throw it outside and he'll call it a strike I guess. This guy is hitting .190. Go after him!!!

I dont know why the Angels swing. Every pitch is called a ball.

Angels are a very good team. They will take advantage of these walks.

Umpires have ruined the game of baseball.

How bout a pop up to first?

Their lefty draws a walk. Good at bad lefty vs. lefty. This could be a gamebreak coming up.

Nice hit by Hunter. He's a bit better than Swish.

Why does Weaver own the Sox? Bad inning.

I'm not saying that's the only reason the Sox have won. I'm just saying James has been good for the Bosox. I wish we had him consulting for the White Sox.

Sad to waste a great pitching effort tonight, but 8 in a row wasn't too shabby.

Thome's last at bat obviously sucked. He was overmatched. Very disappointing. I just wish when the game is on the line he'd make contact and not try to hit the game winning homer. I realize that is who he is, however. Crede's last at bat sucked as well. Like Hawk, I thought the pitch before the K pitch was the one he coulda blooped into left or center for a game-tying single. Oh well ... disappointing but great game by Floyd. And great win streak. Why can't Swish hit????

The Boston Red Sox have kicked butt ever since sabermetrician Bill James joined the staff in a paid position.

So true. That's what normally happens to the Royals who are in the midst of dropping their fourth straight to Boston. At least we went 2-2 vs. Angels.

Amen. Hope the big guy finally has gotten it through his head he's so powerful he can smash homers to left, leftcenter as well as right. Nice column by Couch the other day on Thome and the Thome shift.

Hope it stays that way. Keep the Tigers and Indians down below .500. What a great article in USA Today on the Tigers' woes a day or so ago. The lead sports story. Ex-Tiger Grilli said the Tigers haven't been the same since they got rid of Sean Casey, who was a great clubhouse guy, blah blah. It's the same saga of the Sox not being the same since getting rid of Rowand. The article also said Cabrera was loafing. Leyland pretty much claimed bulls*** on all of Grilli's negative comments.
