  2. http://www.soxnet.net/september22.html Buehrle Wins #19 as Sox Sweep Twins SN Report #338- By Mario Scalise - September 22nd, 2002 It wasn't Buehrle's best performance of the season, but it was good enough to pick up his 19th win as the Sox swept the Twins with an 8-2 victory. The win now leaves Buehrle one shy of 20 with only one start remaining, that coming this Saturday against the Twins in Minnesota. The Sox ruled the game offensively again. While the Twins managed just two runs off twelve hits, the Sox scored eight runs off nine hits, bringing the series run total to 32, 24 more than the Twins (8). After a rather long opening inning, Buehrle was given quick support by Frank Thomas with a two-run homer to straight away center. It was Thomas' 27th home run of the season. After an AJ Pierzynski RBI-single in the second to cut the Sox lead in half, The Sox added a third run in their half of the inning. After Liefer doubled, and advanced to second on a Joe Crede groundout to first, Aaron Rowand hit a sac fly to left center to score him. A Frank Thomas single drove in a run, his 3rd of the game and 90th of the season, to put the Sox up 4-1 in the third. An inning later the big blow came. With Crede and Rowand on second and third, second baseman D'Angelo Jimenez hit his first home run in a Sox uniform, putting the Sox up 7-1. Jimenez went 2-4 for the game and now has 11 RBI's since being traded over from the Padres. Buehrle gave up just two runs in the six innings he pitched, the second coming in the fifth off a Tori Hunter double play grounout with men at the corners. Luis Rivas scored on the play. Antonio Osuna came in for a scoreless seventh and eighth, and now has a 3.90 ERA. Damaso Marte pitched a scoreless ninth. Magglio Ordonez went 1-4, but made it count with a solo homer, his 36th of the season, in the eighth inning off J.C. Romero. That was the only run given up by the Twins bullpen who threw four innings in relief of starter Joe Mays. Mays was roughed up, like Radke and Reed in the first two games, for seven runs in four innings. Jeff Liefer went 1-4 while playing first for the injured Paul Konerko (foot). Joe Crede went 1-4. Carlos Lee and Aaron Rowand showed off their arms in the third on back-to-back plays. After Dustin Mohr hit a liner off the wall in left field, Carlos Lee played it perfectly before making an off balance throw for a perfect strike at second base. Mohr unfortunately beat the throw, but didn't have the same luck the next time. On a Torie Hunter fly out to deep center, Aaron Rowand nailed Mohr at third, who was tagging up. The Sox will have Monday off before hosting the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday at 7:05 PM CT on FSN. The Sox will send Jon Garland to the mound against left-hander Casey Fossum.
  3. http://www.soxnet.net/schuelerresigns.html SN Report #340 - By Mario Scalise - September 23rd, 2002 - www.soxnet.net Former Sox GM Ron Schueler, who stepped down almost two years ago and became the Sox senior vice president and special consultant to Jerry Reinsdorf, resigned Sunday afternoon. Before leaving Schueler expressed his unhappiness with the team's chemistry along with his duties as special consultant. Schueler believed that the 2000 Sox were a team on the verge of being a championship caliber team, but somewhere along the way it dissapeared, an obvious knock toward current Sox GM Kenny Williams. Schueler is unhappy with the players that have been brought in and suggested to Reinsdorf before departing that he evaluate all acquisitions he makes. This was said in regards to such pickups like Royce Clayton and Kenny Lofton, which were rumored to be clubhouse cancers in their short stay. Ron Schueler did talk about the Ritchie trade, saying he was a backer of the deal. His only concern was in giving up Josh Fogg. Despite that, the 54-year old Schueler, who has been in the Sox organization for over ten years, did not resign on bad terms. Apparently Schueler wants to return to the GM-post instead of being used sporadically by the Sox as a AAA Charlotte evaluator. Schueler will be taking offers this off-season.
  4. Since I have no idea how to start a thread that will actually get responded to, who should I blame for deleting this whole board, even though it was my fault?

  6. In an attempt to edit something within the boards, I accidently deleted all the posts in this forum, including the forum itself. I have put it back up, but the threads are gone. I'm not sure if there is away to get them back. Sorry once again for this problem. Hopefully we can get this board going again.
