Right call there, pretty dumb by Nieto

Still shocked he let PK and Flowers face the righty closer. Oh well, great to have Avi back.

Just have to laugh at PK batting there

No shock Lindstrom doing bad, as he was getting destroyed in AAA

Nice PK. Fun game so far

Avi just missed a 3 run homer, goes for an RBI single.

Funny to see Buehrle throw same pitch to Beckham, and Gordon unable to make an adjustment in any of his at bats

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Aug 17, 2014 -> 12:19 AM) Danks sucks Both do, and the fact he put up some big time numbers in Charlotte makes you really wonder about Davidson's struggles

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 17, 2014 -> 01:08 AM) Avi looks good up there. He is shaking that shoulder, but that is to be expected. Amazing he is back so early. Just awesome for our franchise. Two at bats, two rockets

This ump has one of the smallest zones of the year

Danks has nothing yet again.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 08:21 PM) So where does avisail bat today, 2nd? I would guess 5th

https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/500721059206025216 Follow Dan Hayes ‏@CSNHayes Moises Sierra to DL. Avisail Garcia off the DL. Charlie Leesman designated for assignment. Javy Guerra to bereavement list. Eric Surkamp up.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 02:11 AM) Yes. Of course they have a great match and boring Tyson Kidd runs out. Just release him or put him in a non main event tag team with Gabriel. Um, not with Total Divas still on the air.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 03:09 AM) They didn't call it a swing. They called it a foul tip. You can't review a "swing". That is umpire discression. I think I better clarified my opinion after that initial post, as I questioned if it might have impacted the decision by the review ump even though he's technically not supposed to take that into consideration.

Spencer Adams vs Jacob Gatewood...I'm assuming at least two strikeouts tonight

Wow Flowers...has a chance for a special night

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 02:45 AM) That is irrelevant though, they didn't ask the first base umpire if he went and that is not reviewable. The review was if he was hit or not, and he clearly was I absolutely agree with you it's a ridiculous call.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 01:38 AM) Even after the review they signaled it was tip though. Wrong call, appropriate outcome. Gotta wonder if the replay ump saw the check swing and let that impact his decision.

After looking at the replay again on Flowers, the right call was made that he was out. However, it's cause he swung at the pitch, and not cause it hit his bat.

Hawk's about to lose it on the umpires

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 02:27 AM) #2 Hawk's reply to Abattacola was classic. What he say?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 02:28 AM) Who knew it took five minutes to get your magic 8 ball to work, because they sure as hell aren't looking at actual game footage. I wonder what Hawk would say if he found out that Joe West or Mark Wegner was the review umpire? We know Doug Eddings isn't making these calls.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 01:23 AM) NY crew it seems has a problem when it comes to the White Sox. Cooper's comments about the collision rule will get him a nice little fine.

Instant replay is a total joke.
