Let's hope Dye's guarding the RF line.

At this point, it's better to stick up for your players and hopefully get a few more inches of the plate. Our pitchers have pitched all game like they're scared of the bat.

OMG, that was right down the plate. Keep sitting on your ass though Ozzie.

So how is a pitch at the same level to Crisp and Thome called a strike on Jim and not Coco?

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 6, 2009 -> 01:28 AM) Really poor team effort from all chicago teams today......at least the cub never even really gave themselves a chance this afternoon Devastating

QUOTE (JDsDirtySox @ May 6, 2009 -> 02:26 AM) I wish I could watch BHam or Winston-Salem games on tv. My blood pressure can't handle much more of the 09 Sox and we are only in the first week of May. At this rate, the game threads will have 200 posts max come July and these games won't bug you too much by then. There's just something terrible missing from the team this season.

Any pitcher with a good slider is just a terrible match-up for the White Sox. We've chased so many pitches the last few innings only to swing at pitches out of the zone.

Thome's been swinging this year like he's never seen an offspeed pitch in his life.

I can't believe they threw him a fastball. It was a perfect pitch to hit, and CQ tried to do too much with it.

There's not a chance in hell they throw a fastball to CQ here on 3-2.

They really should IBB Quentin here.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ May 6, 2009 -> 02:06 AM) That would require a manager with brains. I have no issues with how he's handled the pitchers this year. His handling of the offense has been just pathetic this season. Opposite of my beliefs from previous years.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ May 6, 2009 -> 01:03 AM) Good to see him shorten up his swing to get the man home. FREE WILSON BETEMIT! At that point, you can PH him and put Nix in at SS or even Lillibridge.

Ha, Pods crushed that ball about 40 feet. No magic wand that AB. This team is so hard to root for right now.

That was one of the worst ABs I've ever seen. Ozzie has got to start using Betemit in PH situations for Alexei against RHP.

Hell of a game for AJP. Please get this run in. Wright is a terrible match-up for Alexei with the slants on his pitches.

Please score here so we don't see Broadway.

Strike 1, of course it's not called.

Strike 5 to Crisp there.

Jermaine continues to chase anything on the full count pitch. Do we see Linebrink here? There's a good chance Broadway or Carrasco gets an important inning tonight.

Well, that wasn't good by Thome.

I have no idea how we're still tied.

QUOTE (stretchstretch @ May 6, 2009 -> 01:28 AM) the sox are lucky they're in the central and KC is in first. by season's end KC will fade into oblivon, and we'll be competing with the other four squads, who luckily for us are playing just about as poorly right now. The Tigers aren't playing terrible right now. They also made some interesting lineup decisions today.

Oh Carlos!!!!

Dotel has absolutely nothing. He should be pulled right now, as it's obvious to anyone he's just not throwing well tonight.
