QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 12:56 AM) It's just what you have to come expect from White Sox baseball when they get to the Dome. Sorry, but it's a state of mind, not the team. That doesn't make it any better, but it might be the most frustrating thing about this entire organization. For paid professionals, along with a coaching staff and front office to treat the Metrodome as such a place of horror is embarrassing. But when it's Nix making the error, it's just bad luck. Maybe the Twins just hustle so much and hit the ball on the ground so often, and we're not used to the speed?

Holy cow, Konerko has that funky fly ball power going right now! Same swing he had last night.

If we had a good double play combo, we'd probably have 5-6 more wins this year. It's amazing how the most routine double plays aren't turned by the Sox.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 01:51 AM) This. Should have b****-slapped everyone on the field. Problem was that it was the two supposed leaders, AJP and Konerko, that really struggled.

Pods needs to focus more on hitting than trying to be cute. He's been so much more effective lately when he's swinging normally and driving the ball.

Wow, AJP going off on Alexei.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 12:49 AM) And Carlos Quentin . . . is limping. No, he's fine...terrible body language by everyone though

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 12:48 AM) Is there really a point in watching these three games? I know I am just going to get frustrated watching s***ty defense and horrible approaches at the plate against s***ty pitchers. Yes, to watch Gordon Beckham

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 12:47 AM) I'm gonna go ahead and assume we get swept this series (a safe assumption). Will be anywhere from 2-5 games out by the deadline. Are we still buyers? I hope if we're 5 out, we're sellers. The Rangers have been destroyed by the Tigers this year, don't forget.

I'm disappointed Casilla didn't go to third on that play.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 12:46 AM) Why do the Twins never make errors like this against us? We always seem to have horrible defensive players compared to them. Because we do have horrible defensive players compared to them.

4 defensive miscues in one inning. Twins won't make 4 against us all series, guaranteed.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 12:45 AM) Looked like a fine feed to me. Alexei fired a rocket at Nix's waist from about 20 feet. No excuse for that throw to not be at the chest.

Unreal, worst defensive inning of the season. Konerko looking like absolute crap at first base lately.

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 12:43 AM) f***ing dome curse. No, our defense just f***ing sucks.

Just terrible defense just hands the Twins a run. Alexei is just a disaster turning the double play, as that throw was terrible to Nix.

Holy cow ump, it should be 0-2 on Punto!!

Definitely two different strike zones so far tonight. Danks is getting nothing called for him.

Gomez having just a crazy game so far.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 01:38 AM) Line drive hitter. He makes my heart flutter. And it's so sexy to see his line drives going out of the park.

STUD!

I don't understand having our hottest hitter batting right after someone who can't get on base now.

This umpire seems to not be calling some pretty obvious strikes.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 01:21 AM) so no lefty out of the pen available? (since richard pitched yest) ? yes

I can't think of a worse series to be missing Thornton than in Minnesota.
