Gordon, you had him at second!!

Nice catch by Morel. Jackson not throwing his high fastball very well tonight.

Edwin is just so damn frustrating to watch pitch.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 02:13 AM) Just when you want to get excited about Dunn, Gilbert Godfrey strikes him out. Gilbert throws a fastball at the belt or higher. It's no real shock that Dunn and Beckham can't catch up to it.

Ha, Dunn overpowered by someone who has no business being in the majors. Sadly, Oakland will go to the pen sooner rather than later.

So we're bunting to play for one run but we don't play infield in with runner on 3rd and one out?

Holy cow has Rios been bad defensively this year.

Well, the camera man is on LSD. Sox should be up 3 or 4 runs.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 01:49 AM) Honestly, he has a better shot getting on that way than actually using a full swing. No way, he's terrible at bunting for hits. At best, he's successful 20 percent of the time.

Great swing by Morel. Nice to see him with enough power to get it over their head. DON'T BUNT

I'll be disappointed if this pitcher makes it 4 innings. Nice job by Edwin of getting us back in the dugout.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 01:37 AM) Not that I doubt it, but can you elaborate? This guy throws a mediocre fastball above the belt. It's the exact pitch Beckham can't handle due to some inexplicable hole in his swing.

Yuck...terrible fastball hitter

Beckham is only guy who doesn't match up well against Godfrey.

Well, looks like we found there Harrell/Marquez

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 01:25 AM) I can hear Konerko drooling. That was too obvious. That was Thome vs Russ Ortiz obvious

This pitcher has nothing. Bunch of straight fastballs.

Well, that's the worst bunt we've seen in a long time. Edwin needs to find his hard slider again.

I want to give credit to Ozzie for not being stubborn and putting Dunn back in the lineup. I think he would have preferred to rest him one more game, but Cahill was the perfect pitcher to get Dunn back into the lineup to face. Hopefully he benches him against Gio though.

Phillies with some absolutely terrible play in extra innings tonight.

What a terrible charge call on LBJ.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2011 -> 12:40 AM) Frankly, yes. The only fair way to evaluate things is in aggregate. Even I agree with this

Franklin and Bash was better last night than the pilot. Loved it!

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jun 9, 2011 -> 06:24 PM) Actually, his much-heralded bunting skills have gone south as well. They were DREADFUL last year. He had a success rate last year when he'd get a bunt down of around 15%.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 9, 2011 -> 07:15 PM) Ozzie has cost this team five games off the top of my head. He's stubborn to a fault and he most certainly doesn't put his players in the best position to succeed. At least not consistently. Ozzie doesn't overreact? Didn't he just go on a tirade a couple weeks ago? Getting mad at the fans because most don't give him a free lifetime pass for 2005? Players respond to him? Well I wish Alex Rios, Adam Dunn, AJ, JP, Danks and Thornton would start responding. Because nothing he's done has worked (this is obviously on the players, too). To me, it's been his worst year, no question about it.
