Crain making some bad pitches, Sox are lucky to not be down 1.

BTW, Soptic with a 6.94 ERA and WHIP over 2 this year.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:47 AM) Well that was the right one to swing at, but he just whiffed Yeah, he got a pitch to hit finally and just couldn't make contact. Once again though, his eye at the plate put him in a hole.

KEPP! You can cancel the postgame

TAKE 3

Our best bet here is for a bloop over Pujols' head.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:39 AM) Apparently when he first broke into pro ball, he had some issues with being a hotshot in the clubhouse Didn't he have a clause in his contract he had to get promoted to the majors in his first year?

QUOTE (Jake @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:39 AM) Now THAT would be something. Did you catch FanGraphs breaking down all of Kepp's 3-ball counts? No, what it say?

Should be D. Wise batting here. If not, can we get the wild pitch offense going again?

QUOTE (Jake @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:37 AM) Might just do that And then they'll walk Kepp

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 17, 2013 -> 05:35 AM) I hope they are seriously considering a DL stint. Seems like it would have to be Konerko's call

QUOTE (Jake @ May 17, 2013 -> 05:33 AM) I wrote about this in an upcoming article about hot/cold Sox minor leaguers, but I have to think Phegley could get serious consideration as an injury fill-in for PK. Could split defensive reps between DH and C with T-Flow I feel like it would be Wise in CF, ADA in LF and Tank at DH

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:31 AM) Something has to be wrong with Paulie. He is kinda swinging like his back is bothering him, as he's not turning on anything.

Probably the best outcome we could hope for from Konerko.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:30 AM) Yeah, he has no excuses with the way it ended up unfolding Write this day down as a time when we agreed! With that said, good luck tomorrow!!

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:29 AM) He didn't know he was out. In that play, you're taught to back away from the plate because runners are coming home. You're not looking at first to take off. Jesus. Haters, man. The replay showed him looking at the first base ump on the appeal

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:28 AM) I meant the AB, but as fathom said he's looking right at the ump and still doesn't run. Thing is, I don't think Ianneta even knew what was going on

Dunn swinging the bat great!

QUOTE (MAX @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:27 AM) At that point running wouldnt have done s***. That ball almost went all the way into the dugout. He could have beat that out if he ran a few seconds after he checked it.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ May 17, 2013 -> 04:25 AM) That wasn't even close to a swing. Nope, but he saw the umpires call at first and still just stood there

Jeez Rios, wake the f*** up

Nice Alexei!

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 17, 2013 -> 05:21 AM) Q didn't get that The umpire isn't calling anything to his left but calling a lot to his right.

Nice start, let's get them loaded for Dunn

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 17, 2013 -> 05:11 AM) FWIW, the Angels' announcers said he did a good job just to get to the ball. After watching the replay again, it's definitely a play that needs to be made. Not sure if his glove blocked his vision at the last second.
