Great AB by Swisher against some tough pitches.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 01:35 AM) But it would only have cost us $15 million. He can't be that much worse than Sheets or Captain Cheeseburger can he? And it looks like the Duke has a hip problem, which I believe he's had in the past.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 01:36 AM) It's too bad I can't be around everynight anymore. Maybe my favorite moment on the board in 2005 was congratulating you after Pods walkoff homer. We got into an argument every night about him it seemed like, but my post to you couldn't have been more sincere.

Please remember this when begging for the Sox to claim Washburn. When you add in the 5 just miss 'ems....I never want to see Washburn on the Sox.

Beautiful swing by Dye on that low and out change.

QUOTE (MurcieOne @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 01:28 AM) Right man hitting right here. Beckham's up?

Keep the ball in the air here Jermaine...and make it 8-4

Some little kid on the LF concourse is very lucky that Quentin fouled that hanger off.

QUOTE (G&T @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 02:23 AM) Even a broken clock... Just don't look at Friday's night thread.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 01:22 AM) It's been a long time since OC had a big hit for the Sox. How about OC comes through tonight? Thanks OC...no clue how that got out, but I'll take it!

Great job by Buehrle keeping them to one run.

QUOTE (griffey17 @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 01:16 AM) I was thinking more Jay Buhner Griffey Jr

Buehrle's primarily a high fastball pitcher tonight. Biggest batter in the game here.

QUOTE (Brian @ Aug 19, 2008 -> 01:12 AM) Lift and pull mode? There's been about 4 fly balls that were off the end of the bat already on big swings by the Sox.

This is bad...Seattle's on the verge of blowing this game open.

Ugh...two cheap hits for the Mariners to start this inning. Keep them to one run.

A's are up 3-0. Is it too early to bring Zeigler in?

Very nice plays by Uribe this inning....Ramirez has to learn how to dive. I really think the idea of putting him at SS is a disaster waiting to happen.

"stretch" on a fly ball 40 feet from going out

Unbelievable....Duchsherer leaves with an injury. Saarloos, who is terrible, is in.
