QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 01:09 AM) Damn. Rare home run given up by Jenks. What's that, his second at home in his career? Yep, some miniscule number.

Wow, another freaking hanger.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 01:07 AM) Play to win the game. Bring in your best reliever when we need him, lead or tie. With how this game's setting up, I would have saved him from the 10th. However, you're absolutely right about going for the win.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 01:06 AM) I understand the idea, but with us playing at home, I don't like using Jenks here. I would have kept Dotel in for another inning, but I have no issues with Jenks in.

Jenks is in

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 02:03 AM) Hate to sound like Hawk, but I think he got jobbed on that last high hanger. Agreed, hasn't been a strike all game. He had a great pitch to hit to start that AB, but he was late.

Shocker

Kalapse, Balta, Santo, etc.....This is one of those times where Thome could be clutch and help the Sox. Facing a righty reliever in a tie game in the 8th.

That a boy Dotel!

Hopefully this Soriano hot stretch doesn't last too long.

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 01:56 AM) What happened? Just a loud foul, missed a double by inches on a hanger.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 12:55 AM) Prepare to be frightened. Yep, and I don't blame Ozzie for going with Dotel.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 01:52 AM) Need to hold'em down. Dotel, MacDougal, or Gavin still? Dotel against Vlad, Hunter, and Rivera is very scary.

Wow Jermaine...continues to try to do way too much in clutch situations.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 12:49 AM) Swisher probably shouldn't have been in the lineup tonight. I said it to myself in about the 3rd inning. Thats why we post on a message board. And you want to know why he was in the lineup (another comment I was going to post earlier). Ozzie wants continuity with this starting 9, as this is what we have the rest of the way.

QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 01:47 AM) What did Hawk say about the crowd? That they weren't vocal enough about the umpire's calls? Jeezus Uribe. Not that time. Said he was very disappointed in the attendance tonight.

QUOTE (Disco72 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 01:45 AM) THAT'S why Swish is playing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I honestly was 5 seconds away from posting something along the lines of "hopefully something happens so jphat or tony will rip on me for questioning Swisher being in the lineup".

SWISHER!! Thought it was gone off the bat, but Hawk was silent. Thank you Lackey for throwing him a fastball.

I don't know what a big shocker is: - walk for Alexei - Hawk ripping on the attendance

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 12:36 AM) I that fact or just your opinion? He hasn't even been to surgery yet. My dad talked to 4 different orthopedic surgeons last night (ironically, he's at a convention this wknd), and not one of them thinks a baseball hitter could return within 2 months of this type of surgery. Too much in the way of stress on the wrists of a baseball swing.

QUOTE (ChiSox35 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 01:33 AM) This man couldn't have found his stroke at a better time. We've been winning without his bat the whole year, and now Quentin is gone, but Konerko is back. Hearing those 4 pitchers we'll face in the Toronto series, we need all of our hitters to find their swings.

Great swing by Konerko, 5-3!

QUOTE (ChiSox35 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 12:28 AM) So now having been away for awhile due to limited internet access, Quentin is out for at least 2 weeks, maybe more. Should we make the playoffs, is he going to be eligable to stay on the roster (assuming he heals well)? No, he won't be back.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 12:27 AM) they've shown how they're loaded. bad inning. You really hate to have guys like Rivera and Napoli beat you. It's a lot easier to take when it's Vlad or Tex or even Anderson.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 01:25 AM) Is there ever a good time? Good point....Gavin really s*** the bed tonight.
