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.

Noesi's throwing meatballs out there.

Awesome to see that on a night where Danish seemed to struggle, he still put up good numbers. I still predict he's a top 100 prospect by most publications before next season begins.

QUOTE (scs787 @ Aug 16, 2014 -> 12:42 AM) Well this is fun. Yes!

Maybe the best Abreu at bat in a week.

Shocked how loud the Blue Jays fans are. Good thing, as there doesn't appear to be many Sox fans in attendance.

Good stuff here http://www.baseballamerica.com/minors/game...140814_29764346

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 13, 2014 -> 12:44 AM) Alcantara has already been slumping after a nice start. Baez with 13 K's in 33 AB's, although a bit of an improvement over 10/23. Baez just destroyed one out of Wrigley. When he hits the ball, he hits it hard as hell.

JJ Cooper @jjcoop36 · 47s And now we see 97 from Rodon. And then an 88 mph slider for another taken strike three. Fun to watch. JJ Cooper @jjcoop36 · 15s Rodon starts out third consistently at 95-96, gets k to start the inning with a freeze ya 87 slider.

JJ Cooper @jjcoop36 · 4m We're getting the top of the draft nasty Carlos Rodon tonight. 93-96 with a wicked slider.

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Aug 13, 2014 -> 10:36 PM) I'm tired of Hawk embarrassing the Sox it's time to move on. Stone is excellent and Hawk drags him down. I've defended hawk for years, that time is over. The sad thing is that his comments might become more of a focal point in the media instead of the actual stupid rule he was upset about.

I'm going to try and stay positive and suggest that who knows, maybe this will keep the team in the top 10 draft pick when the season ends.

13 runs in last 8 games for the Sox. The play at home will overshadow the fact the offense has gone ice cold. I posted this in the Abreu thread, but it will be interesting to see if he even hits 40 homers now.

Another game with Abreu unable to get the ball out of the infield.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Aug 13, 2014 -> 10:04 PM) Parent made a huge mistake bringing in Belisario and taking out Jordan in CF I had to walk away after the play at the plate, and was shocked to see that Q was out of the game when Pagan was up. Reminds me of when Sale got pulled in Boston in the 8th.

Belisario absolutely should be released after this outing. 4 out of his last 6 games, he's gotten destroyed.

Nothing like putting your 5th best reliever in that spot.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Aug 13, 2014 -> 10:56 PM) Belly is DFA material at this point. Absolutely, I have no idea why he keeps pitching in the spots he does. Webb has been much better this year, at least give him some high leverage spots.
