Paulie hits it hard to cf, but its 1 out.

Is the Tigers pen any good?

Yes, double play.

Well lets see if the offense can find its mojo.

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:50 PM) I know that is true. I can't believe these Tigers don't know they are acrappy team and ain't going anywhere. They should roll over for us. Unfortunately the way the White Sox are playing it looks like thats what they were thinking.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:48 PM) I disagree with the person, I think jas, who earlier said we're as good as anyone in baseball. I think that with our pitching coming back to non-superhuman form the 2nd half of the year, there are 4 or 5 teams that are superior to the Sox. I think our pitching can go against anyone staff in baseball. Sure it hasn't been amazing but i put a lot of that blame on the offense. No pitching staff can continually go out and bail an offense out. At one point an offense needs to get on a stretch and tell the pitchers to relax. I saw it for years in LA. Dodgers would have stellar pitching and never score and eventually the Dodgers would fade and go one and done in the playoffs because the pitching staff would be so mentally worn down due to all the close games they were pitching in. They always had to be perfect and as a pitcher your at your worse when your trying to throw a shutout and have it in your mind that you can't make a mistake. You do that and you start aiming and being exact and start majorly falling behind in the count.

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:47 PM) I had a dream once about the Sox winning the pennant, but the year was all kind of fuzzy. Do you think there is a chance that Tribe loses and we rally to get a 3 game edge, or will it happen the other way around? I know one thing...we'd all feel a s***load better if that happened.

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:47 PM) I think the cause of death of 99% of Sox fans is frustration. There is no known cure. I need to stop watching...pretty soon I'm gonna have gray hair.

Dear Santa: Please give me an early Christmas gift and bring the playoffs to the Southside of Chicago Signed A Depressed Sox fan

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:45 PM) :puke I'm going home and having dinner. I can't take this for 2 more innings. I'm debating doing the exact same thing. Going to my moms where I don't have mlb xtra innings and throwing some food on the grill. I probably should. It would be better for my blood pressure. I'm gonna die at a young age thanks to the Sox.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:44 PM) Nice job Arow. Another pulled pitch on the ground, a few bounces into the SS glove. The coach hitting the fungo before the game couldnt of laid it into his glove better.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:44 PM) Rowand has no bat speed. Last year he would hammer things to left...this year nothing. Your right on that. I don't know what he's doing. He loves to jam himself too.

Schilling is toast...he's gonna give up a few more, imo. That will be a good game. Too bad the White Sox blow ass and probably won't win another with their ineptness to execute. I can count quite a few games the past 7-10 days that the Sox should of won. Shoulda woulda coulda don't mean s*** in baseball. As Sammy Sosa would say...You no execute...you no win. Koskie strikes out with a runner on 3rd and 1 out.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:41 PM) Without the red-hot Crede. Also, Widger's in a massive funk. AJ's sucking ass too and Pablo is good against lefties. I agree they miss Crede, but the way these guys are hitting...it would be a horrid lineup regardless of who was out there in a Sox uniform.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:40 PM) Kazmir has a thrown a good amount of pitches. Eventually the tribe will get into the pen. Dont hold your breath on the rays doing us a favor. This is our own duty. f*** ya. Its all about the White Sox winning. They don't do that who cares.

Even though I hate posting other teams scores. 5-4 Boston with a runner on 3rd and 1 out.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:39 PM) Hawk's about to lose it. This lineup is just flat out awful. No worse than the previous lineups.

f***...Sox don't win a couple games they don't deserve the playoffs. Case closed. No excuses..this team needs to play the game or they can go f*** themselves. Its pathetic and I have no idea why I even watch right now. I just get disgusted by the lack of execution. Its not that they are a bad team, thats what kills me. This team is as good as anyone in baseball...yet it can't go out and do the little things on offense anymore and because of that they are basically a .500 team. Start doing the little things and they'll get into the playoffs and win this game. If they don't, its no ones fault but there own and they can think about it the entire offseason. Anyone notice how many 3-0 counts Uribe has had in this series? It must be 5 already. The Dreaded Leadoff walk. Well dreaded if it was anyone other than the Sox getting the walk. Instead its Chicago so they'll hit into a DP and cancel it out. OR they'll put a bunch of runners on and than strike out 3 straight times with a runner on 3rd.

YOU f***ING SUCK WHITE SOX OFFENSE Nice job by Brandon pitching through that.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:28 PM) Why, this offense sucks. If the playoffs are missed, or exited quickly, this offese is making it very easy for Greg Walker to be the fall guy. Walker is gone if this team doesn't make the playoffs. I think he's probably gone regardless. THe problem is, if this team doesn't make the playoffs I fear the repercusisons to the fan base which has grown pretty well this season. Even if the Sox go 3 and out, they need to make the playoffs so they can continue growing there base and payroll. Also so they can sign Konerko and add a big time bat.

Start throwing some more FB's in Brandon.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:25 PM) When as that ever been a suprise? Its there pitching that is in question, and for good reason.... Red Sox are going nowhere. There pitching is horrid. They are basically the opposite version of the White Sox. They are a good team, not a great team. I'm starting to think the same for the Sox, unless the offense pulls its head out of its ass.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:24 PM) I can't even believe we're going to 7th inning having scored only 1 run against a guy with 6.94 ERA in September. Robertson has done his best to let us score. The Sox have just done an even better job f***ing things up.

QUOTE(Reddy @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:23 PM) but all he's thinking is break up the double play which he SHOULD be thinking... Ya, he should of been thinking it...however, that play, you shouldn't. You should know Zuna is running and that when Guillen dove and on a slow hit ball there is zero chance at the double play. At that instant, your trying to beat things out.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:22 PM) Here is the scouting report on Cy Robertson. He throws to the outside corner about 75%. What does this tell our hitters. I know, Pull the ball. No s***...Sox are sitting fastball too and the guy is throwing tons of changeups out of the zone. f***ing terrible at bat by Widge. How long do we have to continue to bail this s***back out of jams. YOU f***ING SUCK OFFENSE...GO TO HELL, your ruining what would be an amazing season. Figure this s*** out and start going, at least execute every once in a while with runners in scoring position.
