Pods has been huge in situations like this.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 12:55 AM) Ozzie doesn't deserve any credit for that. Gavin has been cruising all game, at around 80 pitches, and has shown time and time again that he might the best pitcher in huge situations like that. No one should have even been up in the pen. (Not blasting Ozzie at all, just saying it really wasn't even a debate). Isn't it crazy how often Gavin gets bases loaded against him in the 6th or 7th inning? I recall about 5 showdowns in those situations already this year.

QUOTE (joejoedairy @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 12:54 AM) hyperbole Two worst calls I've ever seen are Crede's 3 run homer called foul at Baltimore in 2003/2004, and the non-called 3rd on Milton Bradley with Joe Nathan pitching this year.

HELL YES, GREAT JOB UMPS!

Oh boy, that's an absolutely terrible call that should never be missed.

Please, please don't make a mistake with a fastball to Hafner.

Pavano is a ground ball machine so far tonight.

Timely double plays so far!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 29, 2009 -> 11:58 PM) Really seems like we let Pavano get settled in by not finishing him off in the first 2 innings. Yep, and the 4th inning is shaping up to be tough for Gavin.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Jun 30, 2009 -> 12:43 AM) Was that Pods strikeout pitch as far outside as Gametracker made it look? I thought it was a strike

Oh DW, keep impressing me!

QUOTE (Utah Sox Fan @ Jun 29, 2009 -> 11:32 PM) I love that Beckham has the ability to knock in runs when he's up at the plate. It's been big in quite a few games this year. Cause he's not trying to hit a home run every AB.

Beckham!! 2 out RBI

Getz with a really nice AB there.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jun 29, 2009 -> 03:00 AM) FYI, Jordan Danks wasn't wearing a barce anymore and was playing toss in the warmup before the game. He also caught the ceremonial first pitches. That's why we pay you the big bucks

Judging by L. Lohan's picture on perezhilton.com tonight, she might be a good candidate.

Piniella truly is a Cubbie now. When your team sucks, you make fun of the attendance of the White Sox.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jun 29, 2009 -> 12:02 AM) Might not be a bad idea to go after DeRosa in the offseason if he isn't asking for a ton. He's going to get paid like a superstar this offseason, and he's nowhere near being a superstar.

Elizabeth Taylor is my guess

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jun 28, 2009 -> 04:43 PM) If the Cardinals get Holliday and Carpenter stays healthy, they immediately become the favorites in the NL...maybe in baseball...to win it all. They desperately need Lohse back, as Wellemeyer has been a disaster in their rotation this season.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jun 28, 2009 -> 01:21 AM) The bigger question is what type of horrible pitch calling was that? Fastball (and not a very good one, IMO) over the outer part of the plate? Stupid. But I'll f***ing take it! Ha, my brother called to tell me the same thing. The only pitch Beckham can really do a lot of damage on right now is an outer-half fastball.

That ending would have got two "Hell Yes" remarks from Hawk.

Why not just move Alexei to 2nd, Beckham to SS, and put Fields back in at 3b?

Just awesome...no better finish you could think of.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jun 27, 2009 -> 11:46 PM) IT'S BECKAMMMMMM also, what the f*** kind of defense is that? THeir entire OF should have been on the warning track Why? With 2 outs, you have to give yourself a chance to throw out Fields at home. Anyways, still have a huge smile on my face. I love that man.
