QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 04:31 AM) Bloop single to CF. Lillibridge basically stopped running once he realized the ball would fall, then picked the ball up with 1 hand, took a couple steps, then realized the runner is being sent home, throws the ball 4-5 feet offline, and the runner scores. Lazy, lazy, lazy baseball today. The pitchers busted their ass, but that was a really poor display of effort by our entire offense tonight. That final play was even worse when watching the replay. Lillibridge had no idea the guy might try to score.

This has really turned in to "Where Would He Play V2.0"

Where was Bruney there?

Wow, that's just comical. You have to bust your ass there Lillibridge. There has got to be changes made to this team. But at least Hawk is happy that Cleveland lost.

QUOTE (iguchi=dank @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 04:25 AM) don't pitch to wiggy.. right hander.. santiago even???? Isn't Bruney still on the roster?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 04:20 AM) It probably is just frustration, but Sox hitters don't seem to battle as much as hitters from other teams. It seems like they make it way too easy on the opposition way too often. They hit to their scouting report, if that makes sense. The last 5 or 6 innings, our hitters just look overmatched and/or not very focused.

Hopefully we start getting better swings. Last 6 or so outs have been very weak.

Brothers was someone a lot of us wanted the Sox to draft a few years ago

Great 3-2 pitch!

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 04:06 AM) Yea he's been using him correctly. Though many of us thought he would be a decent LOOGY when signed but knew Ozzie's managing style. The hole between Teahen and Alexei with Ohman on the mound and Nelson up to bat is a dangerous spot here.

Don't you dare Ozzie

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 04:02 AM) Keep Crain in screw Oh Man disagree with OG on this one. Yep, you go after Giambi and then walk Gonzalez.

That sure was an easy pitch to bunt.

QUOTE (TomPickle @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 03:55 AM) I know Adam Dunn is terrible right now, but there's no reason for Omar to be facing Lindstrom. Dunn has no prayer against Lindstrom. He'll be batting 2nd next inning if we hold Rockies scoreless.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 03:55 AM) Are we even in this game? I don't get the feeling we are even competing (cept for the pitchers). 2 infield singles in last 7 innings. Most of our hitters have looked overmatched against their bullpen.

Lillibridge has looked overmatched at the plate against righties lately. The Lillimagic has faded away, but he still plays amazing defense.

Pitchers are really doing a hell of a job lately. Liked the effective high fastball by Crain.

Lindstrom against Beckham should be funny

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 03:43 AM) Why can this team never win in extra innings? 2011: 4-7 2010: 6-10 2009: 4-6 Bad offensive approach? Very rarely do you see the Sox execute well in extra innings. I don't focus nearly as much on other teams in extra innings, so no clue if this is a Sox phenomenon or league wide issue.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 03:42 AM) We don't need Viciedo, we need a full frontal lobotomy. A Sox loss with Pierre having a good game would have to be considered a bad night. Still time for Sox to win this game though.

Uppercut swings...yay! Sox haven't had a hit besides Morel's infield single in something like 6 innings.

Nice! Here we go, the thunder is up but we face Mr. Slow Worker

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 29, 2011 -> 03:21 AM) It doesn't matter, we are screwed Trust me, I want a win just to get another scratch on the left side of the column!

Excellent all around game for Pierre. Time for Morel to hit a double into right center gap.
