Jeez...Beckham seemed to be running in quick sand. Castro should really be batting for Omar here.

Knock it off Juan. First and third them!

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 09:34 PM) I think that 2-2 pitch was the best pitch a member of the White Sox has ever had to hit off MO. He had 4 great pitches to hit in that AB. Nice he drew a walk, but he could have tied it up.

Damn, he jammed himself. Quentin's not coming close to clearing his hips on his swing, and thus it's hard for him to barrel-up anything.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 09:28 PM) that play just earned him a spot in the lineup for the next week Weird replay, as he reacted down the line on the swing and then had to recover. Was as outstretched as he could be.

Well done Ozzie having CQ hit!!

And Hawk just came in his pants. Nice play Mark!

Haha, Manny Ramirez just got ejected during an at bat. First pitch was outside during the AB, and he turned around and argued. What a trainwreck.

QUOTE (J.Reedfan8 @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 10:18 PM) Man... its gonna be hard losing 2-1 like this. I never say this (oh were gonna lose before the game is over) with any other closer in the league... except Mariano Rivera. We need Beckham to take an outside cutter and line it into the Yankees bullpen.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 10:14 PM) Well, it's very comforting to know that we have Teahen leading off against Mariano Rivera... Not a chance in hell he should be allowed to bat. It better be Quentin or Castro.

Alexei trying to do way too much at the plate.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 10:09 PM) Some people like to complain about things after the fact. Cause I wanted to keep Konerko in the game in case we tie it or Konerko bats against Rivera in the 9th?

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 10:08 PM) I am too but I don't see exactly what Ozzie did wrong there. We just give away too many damn outs. Joba must be very quick to home, as it's not like Lillibridge had a bad jump there.

Nice swing by Andruw there...no idea why they didn't throw him a 3-2 offspeed pitch.

Why are our dead red fastball hitters just taking 2-0 pitches right down the plate?

Haha, you have to be kidding me. And now Konerko is out of the game. I'm so freaking sick of Ozzie.

Nice range Omar!

Funny thing is the same type of play literally happened a minute ago in the LLWS game.

Damn, I can no longer say Jenks is a good defensive pitcher.

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 09:50 PM) I do agree with that. Something should have been done at the deadline. I can't understand how we didn't get anything done as far as a hitter goes. Cause KW over the years has gutted our system to the point where it was Beckham, Viciedo, or bust. He has no one to blame but himself for not having any ammunition.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 08:47 PM) I think above all less the inconsistency of Rios and Quentin are the reason this team is treading water. Neither did anything yesterday and one is not even in the game. If this team is going to the next level next year those to need sustained productivity. Both have just sucked big time since the ASB. Everyone else is seemingly playing well since the ASB, but when they're 2 of our 3 power hitters, it creates a big issue. More than anything, KW has got to find some more power for next season.

Goodness, he has no power anymore. Please move him from the #3 spot!!

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 08:31 PM) I'm really really going to hate this offseason if we hear over and over again the reason we can't even resign Konerko is due to Edwin Jackson (well, that has worked out okay) and spending $4.1 million on a superfluous Manny Ramirez. I could not agree more with this.

Sale is the most exciting player on the team to watch now. So fun!

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 08:23 PM) Teahen will be the Sox starting third baseman next year which will not be good. I'd rather convince Omar to stay another year at the age of 50. I'm fine with Omar returning next season, but by no means should it be as a starting player. You've seen some of the issues with making him your starting 3b when you have to play Lillibridge at 3b against C.C.
