QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 07:46 PM) now O'Sullivan is getting squeezed. nice. Limited damage, 2-1 KC after 2.

This needs to be Jackson's last batter.

O'Sullivan walked bases loaded vs Twins.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 07:41 PM) O'Sullivan starting to fold 6 straight pitches in the dirt

Jim Thome now has an OPS of 1.000

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 07:37 PM) they just love negativity, tons of pitchers go 120 pitches, i dont think going about 10 extra has much of an effect, esp with the extra day. he was just due Well, there was the history of him really struggling after his huge pitch count no-hitter.

Ugh...Scherzer can easily start the 7th now if Leyland wants.

Haha, gotta love Hawk saying Kotsay lined hard to left.

Organization likes De Aza a lot more than Gartrell

Very important to make Scherzer have a high pitch count inning and hopefully not let him start the 7th. Royals up 2-0 on Twins.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 07:29 PM) can't a guy have a bad start? Very true, Jackson just set himself up for such lofty expectations.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 06:15 PM) i knew jackson sucking today was some way some how, going to be put on ozzie lol everything that goes wrong comes back to ozzie,never fails Well, then you might want to blame the Chicago media, who wrote a few columsn about how the big pitch game would impact Jackson.

QUOTE (ScottyDo @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 05:36 PM) lmao really, on a line drive that required a diving catch....???? That was a line drive? Are you Hawk?

Ok, just sit Beckham for rest of game. He's usually worthless after striking out in his first AB.

Scherzer is hanging everything!

Rally Killer Kotsay...shades of yesterday with him in the 2nd inning.

Anyone see Lillibridge there in the dugout? He slapped Manny on the back to say good job, and Manny never looked back. Meanwhile, Lillibridge kept looking back at Manny to see if he'd acknowledge him. Manny probably thinks Lillibridge is the bat boy.

Way to go AJP!

Jones really having some good ABs lately. We need to tie this game up.

I love Manny and all, but it's kinda funny how he's just a slap hitter to right field these days.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 06:19 PM) Perhaps the 129 pitches Jackson threw his last outing are causing him problems today. Sox coaching staff was definitely concerned about the impact it would have. If he gives up 4-5 runs early on, just pull him.

Ozzie is clearly trying to stack the lineup with LHP against Scherzer. I haven't looked at his splits, but I'd be shocked if he doesn't dominate righties. I'm fine with this lineup...it's not like we're going to miss Rios' bat and Konerko's if he's hurting.

QUOTE (IChaseBlackWood @ Sep 6, 2010 -> 12:46 AM) Just watched a recap of Morrison take a foul tipped line drive to the cheekbone, pretty intense stuff right there. Really puts into perspective how f***ing manly Baseball is ..Gahhh, I LOVE IT!!! Hopefully someone can link the mlb.com video from last week about Morrison getting a hit in front of his terminally ill father.

Hurt, I say this respectfully, but not everyone is going to agree with everything you say and believe. I've been around here long enough to know there's people who think the polar opposites when it comes to Ozzie, KW, the players, etc. Don't take it personally when they have a different viewpoint.

What a catch by Lillibridge! Hell of a win
