QUOTE (santo=dorf @ May 26, 2008 -> 02:46 PM) Looks like we have another Royce Clayton on our hands http://www.suntimes.com/sports/deluca/9687...eluca25.article Do team leaders usually care about their individuals stats this much? He's been very hard to root for.

Before that pitch, I go to my brother "I want to see the bat flip"! Great win!

Three hitters coming up that will be swinging for the long ball. One time 3/4/5!

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 26, 2008 -> 02:08 AM) He was dominant for a while and was getting a lot of K's. I'd be surprised if he didn't have a 10K plus game. This game ain't over people. Lackey pitched a good one, Sox pen is gonna have to man up now and hopefully the offense can muster up enough runs to win this (hopefully all it takes is one more run by the Sox). Contreras had some huge K games in 2006, at Texas and at Cincy. He had 13 or 14, I believe.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 26, 2008 -> 02:07 AM) If Dye were playing RF for the Angels it would have dropped by 10 feet. Matthews Jr is freaking stellar defensively. I was thinking the same....seeing that Matthews Jr. play live on Swisher yesterday was amazing.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 26, 2008 -> 02:07 AM) Is Linebrink's fastball really hitting 94 right now? GM Jr. had a great pitch to hit on the 2-0. Damn, that homer in the 4th was cheap.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 26, 2008 -> 02:05 AM) Kudos to Jose. Damn shame he's gonna end up with a ND. Our starting pitching gave up runs in 3 out of 22 innings this series, and not one of them got a W.

QUOTE (daa84 @ May 26, 2008 -> 02:03 AM) IMO AJ is by far the most overrated player on this team That's a lofty statement on such an underachieving offensive team.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 26, 2008 -> 03:02 AM) I hate to be a dick, but my god, even AJP is horses*** right now. What pathetic excuses for at bats. How the hell are we in first place??? 8 game win streak, while rest of division is underachieving = 1st place in standings.

33 pitches in last 5 innings for Lackey.

Embarrassing....keep sitting there and wait for a homer Ozzie!

How about a hit-and-run?

Filthy stuff...get someone on for CQ. I sense an AJP extra base hit.

QUOTE (Brian @ May 26, 2008 -> 02:52 AM) Best sign ever behind our dugout! What does it say?

4 pitch inning....awful!

QUOTE (Brian @ May 26, 2008 -> 01:47 AM) Nice AB, Joe. Nice AB, Swisher. This offense is such a joke.

Has Crede done anything this series? He needs to do better to impress his future team.

Great job by Contreras. That Napoli foul ball = right size, wrong shape.

Anyone following the Reds game? Nothing like pitching your young superstar on 2 days rest in the 18th inning.

QUOTE (daa84 @ May 26, 2008 -> 02:41 AM) i missed it too fathom, but tell me you at least saw the cubs highlights? Just about 10 seconds worth....I was following it on my cell phone, good stuff!

I missed the earlier innings, but what type of pitch did GM Jr. hit for a homer, and was it far?

Either move Thome down in the lineup to 7 or 8, or see if you can jump start him by putting him 2nd in the order. No reason to pitch to Kotchman here.

CQ with a good effort...Angels are close to taking the lead and likely wrapping up the sweep. This offense this series is reminiscent of the Blue Jays debacle.

I'd love to know how many hits the Sox have averaged in the first 5 innings of games this season. It can't be more than 3 or 4.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 26, 2008 -> 01:18 AM) Who's been the bigger bust? OC or Swisher? Swisher, considering that Sweeney is playing decent and he's locked up for a long time.
