QUOTE (iamshack @ May 28, 2012 -> 08:00 PM) All of our hitters look that way...gotta think Moore has some extra nasty s*** today The damn Manto Appreciation Thread :)

One of Konerko's worst ABs in a while. Lots of good pitches to hit, but seemed to over-think it. I think Konerko launches a fastball in his next AB though.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 28, 2012 -> 08:49 PM) It'll be a long day if he keeps that up. Control has been his bugaboo. Thing is, if he keeps pumping that first pitch fastball down the plate, that's the best pitch our hitters will get to hit. I'd rather see Viciedo line out on first pitch as opposed to having someone take a protect swing on the 2 strike change-up.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 28, 2012 -> 08:48 PM) That was one of their things they really worked on over the winter with Maddon and the coaching staff, compiling all their details on where the balls are going defensively and designing more specific shifts. Got some hints that the Cubs are going that way too, but the Rays really are making it an art. Earlier today, Kasper was saying the Cubs have their 3rd baseman play far off the line cause their research shows that there aren't a lot of balls hit down the 3rd base line.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 28, 2012 -> 08:46 PM) That's what defensive statistics can do for you. Yep, I saw you mention their positioning a few days ago

My goodness they have a lot of range out there and always seemed to be positioned perfectly

Very nice ADA. Hit a gapper Gordon

Time for Alexei to build off of yesterday's game and get us going. Have to get to Moore before he gets two strikes.

Well, that was a quick inning for Moore.

QUOTE (Baron @ May 28, 2012 -> 07:30 PM) Its basically the Sale show in our rotation.

Is Matt Moore easy to steal off of? AJ is very lucky he didn't break a finger there.

Someone looks a little excited to be pitching in his home state

Mercy Sale, calm down

23 pitches by Moore in the first. Lefties definitely seeing the ball better off of him.

Wow, that just missed hitting him in the heart. Scary stuff

You guys better not have jinxed ADA

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 28, 2012 -> 06:57 PM) 2005 and it ain't close. Even regular season games. Well yeah, of course for an entire season. However, for a stretch of games, this is up there with the 2006 run when the Sox killed the Cardinals, the grand slams vs Astros, etc. I think the reason I enjoy now so much is cause it all seemingly started with the Konerko HBP, and that the two young guys in Beckham and Viciedo have played an important role in beating 3 of our 4 biggest rivals.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 28, 2012 -> 05:55 PM) I post as a member, if I have to police as an admin I do so. Caulfield I don't think anyone on this board has ever doubted that you are intelligent, but sometimes your posts are so long and rambling with so many different points and counterpoints that there is no way to respond. I wasn't kidding before, you will say "I could argue XXXXX but we all know kyyle23/marty/DA/ss2k5 will respond with YYYYY". You don't even give any of us a chance to respond and argue your point, you do it for us within your own post. I'm sorry, but that is annoying to me. I am not above writing a long meticulate post to respond to something you say, but only if you allow me to do so. As for what I said about this post subject, you are looking for the floor to drop out on this team while they are currently enjoying their best baseball under Ventura. You are asking me to assign blame for Molina yet the kid has been in the organization for less than a year. How about we enjoy it a little bit? The last 10 days have been about the most fun I've ever had watching the White Sox.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 27, 2012 -> 08:34 PM) Time for Nate to get back on track. When has he been "off track"?

QUOTE (Jake @ May 27, 2012 -> 09:30 PM) Rios needs to stop losing his mind over every out Ha, who would have ever thought those words would be written about Rios?

Don't forget that a lot of people had plans for today made weeks ago, so it's not like there were a lot of people deciding at the last moment to go to the game. Great job by Ohman!

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 27, 2012 -> 09:22 PM) Floyd got in deep s*** today because he couldn't get Marson and Diaz out. Those two suck and they've jump started every rally so far. Way too many fastballs to their lesser hitters.
