Hudson, great play!!

Wow, that's terrible timing for the walk. Get the bullpen up in case he's tiring.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 28, 2012 -> 09:49 PM) 95 pitches, 69 strikes. Man it'd be nice to see him out there for a couple more innings, but it's not worth the risk He'll get the 7th

It's really too bad his pitch count is up, as he could definitely top 20.

Hopefully Zobrist bats with 1 out and no one on here.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 28, 2012 -> 09:35 PM) Ahem Thanks for throwing him first pitch fastball, when it was obvious he was looking for it in his 2nd AB

QUOTE (chw42 @ May 28, 2012 -> 09:34 PM) What'd I say? Moore gets into trouble in the middle innings.

DUNN!

Great AB by Beckham

Both pitchers at 72 pitches after 5

BTW, 72 pitches for Moore

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 28, 2012 -> 08:17 PM) Their SS was just way towards 3b, the middle of the field was wide open. There should have been a SS with a shot at that if they played normal. Sorry, I meant that as a rhetorical question

Very, very long swing by Alexei today. Time for Hudson's 7th triple of the season.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 28, 2012 -> 08:14 PM) Viciedo beats their defensive shift How crazy was that positioning?

Swinging at way too many balls against Moore while letting strikes go. He's doing a great job of working ahead today.

Nice catch by Rios!

I'd be willing to bet Tampa scouted out the Sale/Dunn combo and thought it was worth the risk to go on first move.

Bad pitch, he's hung his slider more from the stretch than from the wind-up...Sox offense had to score anyways

Ugh, bad throw by Dunn

Pick him off

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.
