QUOTE(TLAK @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 02:26 PM) He's the guy Oz said wasn't a pimple on his fathers ass, which got him suspended. Then gun decked his report to the league so Ozzie called him a liar and got suspended again. Was this the one who was umping in the Cleveland series where Ozzie made that bullpen call and he called in the wrong guy? And then If I recall a fwe other things happened that series? I just remember something happened and the two had a war of words. Its kind of odd because Ozzie tends to be pretty laid back in terms of arguing with the umps. Usually he just runs out and has a short talk with them, not today though.

QUOTE(chimpy2121 @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 02:27 PM) I dont think you can get Sox broadcasts on Espn 1000 Online I figure you can get the postgame show. I clicked on Game Night and am getting the ESPN update, so maybe thats the link you should click? Of course this is probably the national feed.

Anyone know which show or link I sould click on cause I just get dead air on am1000 thus far.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) In a way this loss isn't that bad for the future because we had so many shortcomings last night that today we can make the umps the complete scapegoats. That might actually help the club move on and get over this series. At least until we see members of that crew again. They better look at the film though and note how they are all trying to swing for the fences instead of go with what the pitcher gives them. Still, the Sox got the best record in baseball and have led in every game. Funny thing is even when the team has played awful they have been right in the games. I'm going to be an optimist, hell, I thought Harden would shut em down yesterday and while I thought the Sox should win today that was before I knew Widge/Crede would be at 3rd and SS respectively.

QUOTE(quade36 @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) Can we contact MLB in any way to complain about this game???? I don't think there are any grounds for an appeal, but regardless I'm guessing they could send a letter or make a call to the MLB offices to have whoever needs to look at the film and take note of the multiple of missed calls.

QUOTE(quickman @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) www.am1000.com Thank you Quick:)

Is there a place where I can listen to the after the game press conference? I'm bored as hell at work and am curious as to what Ozzie says. I hope he also mentions how the team FAILED to execute, along with the fact that umps made some poor calls. I'm also curious as to what they do because if Ozuna/Uribe aren't able to start, then someone needs to be on the DL (preferably Ozuna). I'd probably call up Andy Gonzalez of all people.

Thats the ball game.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 02:18 PM) Crede definitely dropped his elbow into the pitch. In the spirit of the rule, the umpire probably was correct, but that is never called, especially 2 feet in the box. Ozzie got run because he started talking to Wendelstedt like he was Magglio, I could hear it on the Comcast. The thing I don't understand is Wendlestedt then can say whatever he wants to Ozzie after tossing him. Its BS. Crede got run because when he popped up he turned and said the magic words. Not smart. You have to know Wendelstedt is going to do everything within his power to show Ozzie who has the upper hand. Ya, Ozzie and Crede both dropped some obscinities.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 02:16 PM) You know what sucks. If we lose this game, everyone will blame it solely on the umpires, and nothing else. Instead of neglecting the awful offensive execution we've had, I bet Ozzie will make it sound like we would have won 10-1 if not for Hunter and crew. I've pointed out...that the umps have sucked ass and effected this game, but aside from that it should of never gotten to that point (in either game). The Sox should of won both games and failed to execute and do the little things. Its there own damn fault, still MLB should take some action with this crew. Blown calls are understandable, but this has been more than just a few blown calls (I understand umps are human).

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 02:12 PM) We do taht and we have some serious problems. Might want to reconsider, no matter how mad you are. It doesn't matter with this crew, its a repeated occurence. They blow...MLB better get a memo or something. If I'm the Sox I'd b**** and moan to MLB because something should be done. Its obvious they have really blown this game. There was that call on 1st earlier today and a few calls yesterday asides from this ridiculous bulls*** call last inning. Sox should still have won this game aside from the umps (actually both games) but still umps aren't supposed to be a factor in the final outcome. Iu nderstand mistakes, but this is just ridiculous. I should add,I was merely joking...although I think they deserve to be fined or suspended for calling the game the way they have. Umps can make errors, but this is just ridiculous.

Man, the one guy actually playing his position makes the error. Its odd cause he's so damn good defensively. Hermy..lets turn two..Dye to Willie, LOL. I can't help but laugh despite being absolutely pissed at this crew.

f***...Aaron loses it in the sun. :shakeshead

I'd just throw a high fastball, have AJ jump out of the way and let it drill the ump...thats who deserves the beaning.

TOTAL f***ING BULLs***...come on pitching, shut em down and lets get the offense to get some runs across. Win this game and then tell this crew to f*** OFF

This ump crew should be fined...not the Sox. Jermaine Dye is playing shortstop...holy s***.

Absolutely one of the worse calls I've ever seen. That pitch was right at Crede. DJ is dead on in his rant about how pathetic that call was. This has been such a garbage called series. On a sidenote, Crede got a little lucky cause I thought he struck out looking (that pitch looked good). Ozzie got tossed at a perfect time too, imo. Holy cripes...Crede just got tossed so I'm guessing Willie is moving to short. f***ING BULLs***...HORSEs***

Awesome AB AJ Now the Sox are destined for that DP, but remember what I siad, Crede is gonna give the Sox the lead this inning!!!!

QUOTE(quickman @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 01:59 PM) Well I think he is in a total funk, offensively he is terrible right now and should be dropped in the order. Defensively he is suspect. Maybe he is one that get effected on both things, but he is not playing good baseball. I agree. I've said it for a long ass time, its so f***ing stupid he's in the 5 spot right now. Thats not Jermaines problem though its Ozzie's. Defensively he's a solid player, but he's made some bonehead plays.

QUOTE(farmteam @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 01:55 PM) Good stuff. If I can just figure out the W-S rotation, I'll write out the pitching preview, and my article will be done. I'll shoot ya an email in a few. Whisler is supposed to be back in a few days. Then Haig, Rodriguez, Bakker (who should get demoted for Gio and it may happen in a few weeks) and I'd have to think of the others (maybe Flores). This is just off the top of my head.

QUOTE(quickman @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 01:56 PM) Maybe I read this wrong but yesterday dye dropped a ball and threw tot he wrong base. he cost us the game. Defensively yes, he made some mistakes. Thing is Dye dropped that ball and s*** happens. As far as offensively though he made big time strides. It was probably his best offensive game of the season (sad as it may be).

No one better to hit and run with AJ at the plate. AJ can make contact and Arow has good speed. Lets do it.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 27, 2005 -> 01:56 PM) Ozzie: HIT and RUN!

I'd have Aaron in motion or a hit and run of some sort. Time to play ballsy.

So Hermy is actually warming up?
