Finally, got that location up in the zone!! Gotta love facing Sweeney and Griffey in the last inning. Fantastic sweep, and any win is nice when you're not clicking.

Missed his spot big time on the first 2 pitches.

Ugh....why even have Thornton warming up then?

DO IT OZZIE!

Ugh...why can't we just have Thornton come in and get Griffey out easily.

Ugh, awful throw by Pierre. Jenks has got to stop throwing that fastball right down the plate to lefties.

Very nice change-up there, as Sweeney was doing everything he could to gear up for the fastball.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 25, 2010 -> 08:54 PM) Bad omen. Jenks at only 89 and 91 on first two pitches. Tired after consecutive outings? He's throwing cutters.

Wow, wasn't sure that had enough on it!!! Way to go PK!

Two straight near home runs for the Sox.

Whew...made some nice pitches to Franklin. Who pitches the 9th if it's tied?

Jeez, Danks staying in. I hate this move.

Wow, two very cheap hits here for Seattle. Time go to the bullpen. This should be Santos coming in.

Might as well focus on Figgins here.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 25, 2010 -> 09:32 PM) So... Why can't Gordon hit? He's thinking too much at the plate, and he's pushing his bat through the zone.

Like I said, I was fine with not bunting. But Alexei not even trying to hit the ball to right field is inexcusable.

Hopefully Beckham can bang some slumpbusters tonight and find his bat speed.

While I'm happy we didn't bunt, I can't be the only one shocked that Ozzie didn't? You bunt with Beckham to get a runner to 2nd with 1 out, but not with your #9 hitter to get a runner to 3rd?

Wow, that's just brutal. Played right into Seattle's hands this inning. Pierre should just never get to bat with a RISP.

Wow, that was a dreadful at bat. If you have to move the runner over, why are you so in front of it?

QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Apr 25, 2010 -> 08:24 PM) Lazy outfield play by guttierez leads to a 2b Huh? He was shaded to LF, and the footing can't be good out there. Since he's basically one of the best defensive outfielders ever, I'll trust his effort.

Way to go Teahen. He's had a very good approach so far today. With Alexei bunting here, it's going to be squeeze time for Pierre.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 25, 2010 -> 09:19 PM) He lose contact with his supplier? The Oakland organization is truly pathetic.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 25, 2010 -> 08:18 PM) Vargas has pitched pretty well so far this year. If you saw the stats for 3 of our starting pitchers, you'd say they are worse than mediocre. Is Eric Byrnes the most overrated, overpaid grinder guy out there? GEEZ. Vargas looks really good, like a mini-Tom Glavine out there.
