5-0. Bmac's streak of 17 2/3 shut-out innings is over.

B-mac needs a k badly.

Lead-off double by Erstad. :headshake

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 02:35 PM) what'd Willie do this time Struck out like a little girl.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 02:34 PM) Nice to see the Angels are b**** slapping us in our own park this series :puke What good team doesn't do that us?

LMAO@Willie This is getting comical.

Way to go Pods.

We desperately need to do something right here and now.

We got a hit?

Because B-mac is no Roger Clemens. Just ask Ozzie.

QUOTE(Ozzie Montana @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 02:18 PM) I don't know how realistic this would be but if I could work out a deal with the Brew-crew I would keep Paulie and put him at DH and put Overbay at first. I think the Sox should trade El Duque in the offseason and I'm not huge on Everett plus I'd prefer Overbay over him. I wouldnt exactly know all the players involved but this would be what it would end up being. Just a thought. The Brewers won't be foolish enough to trade for El Dookie.

B-mac makes Vlad look silly. 6 K'S. 17 2/3 shut-out innings. Way to go Ozzie for starting El "Dookie."

That's 5 k's for B-mac. Has Ozzie ever looked as dumb as he does right about now?

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 02:18 PM) I totally agree. How many games this year did we concede w/ those lineups?? I say at least 4 or 5. Which if we had won would have given us a 10.5 game lead right now.......... Obviously hindsight is 20/20. But it does make you think Ozzie was content on simply winning series. A real manager would go for the kill in most cases.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 02:02 PM) The Sox signed him for October. He's been better than any of the other 5th starter crap we had for the previous 4 seasons. They signed him thinking he was the same pitcher from previous years. That's obviously not the case as his era is over 5 now.

Good lord B-mac is nasty. That's 16 2/3 consecutive shut-out innings.

I don't know how the hell we're gonna be able to scratch out 4 runs today. And that's assuming we don't give up anymore.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 01:59 PM) Were 3-4 vs Boston, 4-5 vs. Anaheim, 3-3 vs the YAnks, 2-7 vs Oakland, and 10-3 vs Cleveland. That equates to a .500 mark of 22-22. Not to bad i say..........We are obviously not going to blow teams away, so our pitching has to carry us, which it hasn't been as much in the 2nd half........BUehrle and GArland carried this team in the 1st half, and they both have losing records in the 2nd. These guys have to get it going again if we have any chance in the playoffs. No argument here. I do think our 10-3 record against the Tribe is a little misleading. They've been a totally different team since the last time we played them.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 01:42 PM) Does anyone really want to see Contreras traded? Do you actually want Duque pitching for us another year older? He's basically worthless this year. Why would we want to keep him next year? I've defended/backed El "Dookie" all year. I'm not doing it anymore. He was a terrible signing. The guy is basically runnin on fumes now. He's like 40, right?

15 2/3 consecutive shut-out innings for B-mac.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 01:54 PM) As well it should. What's the worst that could happen? I don't give a s*** if the media makes fun of the Sox for monts because of a collapse....they would deserve every last criticism. No argument here. But I must admit, I would never feel the same about White Sox baseball again. It would be hard for me to even get up for 06. I don't think i'm alone in that. But, hopefully, it won't come to that and we win this thing.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 01:53 PM) It's a lot harder to hang with good hitting elite teams when the ball is flying out of the park. We won a ton of 2-1 games early in the season because of how big the park was playing. Against non elite teams. We were basically winning those games against the Indians, when they were struggling, Tigers, Royals, ect.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 01:51 PM) I'm not too worried about the collapse. If it happens, it won't change our lives in the long haul. I think most Sox fans have realized that this 2005 team isn't a once in a lifetime team that is destined to win the World Series. There will be a 2006 season no matter what happens. I agree that life goes on. But 15 1/2 games up on Aug 1st? All hell is gonna break loose if we blow this thing.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 01:48 PM) We knew this was going to happen when it got hot out. That's one of the main reasons that our starting pitching was so great in the early part of the season. It has nothing to do with the weather. It's the fact we can't hang with elite teams.

Sup everybody. I was gonna wait until after the game to post, but I seriously can't watch this crap right now. We are on the verge of an epic late season collapse right now.
