Great inning for Thornton!

QUOTE (Noonskadoodle @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 02:26 AM) Mike Trout went yard AGAIN today & the Angels are once again beating up on Texas Hawk's love for him this weekend might make Yaz jealous

Only 2nd time all year Blackburn's had more innings than hits allowed.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 03:23 AM) Damn you Gordon's bat I know what you're thinking about that swing

Ugh, don't use Gordon's bat again. Use Rios' bat if you have to.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 02:19 AM) That's exactly what it is. He's not striding out enough, which prevents him from squaring up, which causes the arm to drag, which causes a different release point, which leaves the ball up. Pitching is hard. It's amazing how he's been so effective this year by pitching up in the zone so much.

Run for Dunn??

QUOTE (Caesar @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 02:18 AM) I wonder if Youks back is bothering him. He's swinging all upper body right now

Twins making a mistake not bringing in the lefty here. Hit a bomb Adam

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 02:16 AM) He's not trusting his oblique enough to follow through Good observation, he's likely not been close to 100% all year

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 02:13 AM) Good job, Jesse! For some reason, I always remembered him burying that slider in the dirt against the Sox when he was going good. Now, that slider seems to be above the belt very frequently.

Wow, good momentum right now!

Hell of a play by Viciedo out there!

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 02:08 AM) Crainwreck! It's been a long time since he's looked sharp on the mound. Even in Saturday's game, he was all over the place.

Did the Sox do an MRI/physical on Danks prior to giving him the extension?

QUOTE (Knackattack @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 02:01 AM) Man why can't Gordon just use his rookie stance wtf. You could even tell on the 2nd pitch he took in that AB that his body was going towards the plate instead of towards the pitcher.

Gordon jamming himself like crazy. Terrible swings by him tonight.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 01:58 AM) To play where? +1

Big hit Alexei! Hit a bomb Gordon

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 01:58 AM) I'll take 2 runs in 6 innings from Liriano every single time. Gotta muster more than one f***ing run off Blackburn. He pitched great

Nice job Tank, keep it going Alexei

It's been a long time since Viciedo just dropped the barrel on a pitch and crushed it to left.

QUOTE (Caesar @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 01:56 AM) Im not. Just stating we won't win this game. Typical Sox game against this horrible team. Sox just need to get some momentum going. Tank can provide it here

QUOTE (kev211 @ Aug 1, 2012 -> 02:53 AM) Our offense has scored over 5 runs in 6 of the last 7 games. It's not slumping guys. Shutout on Sunday by terrible pitcher, and then 2 runs after the first last night against a terrible pitcher and getting 2 hits tonight against a terrible pitcher. We miss Escobar!

Wow, sluggish. Tons of fly outs to right by our hitters the last two nights. Bats seem to be dragging big time.
