QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Apr 12, 2008 -> 06:53 PM) So whats the reason Gavin did so well today? Granderson out? The rain? Night game/day game? Pratt, DA, anything????? Personally, I thought Floyd didn't have good stuff or command the first time through. We made some good defensive plays, and he settled down. He ended up being effectively wild, and I loved that change up he started throwing.

Good job Linebrink!

Great effort by Gavin...I didn't even realize he had a no-hitter until the 7th inning. Time to go to Linebrink.

I like this full count changeup that Floyd's been throwing.

J. Jones in the 8th inning in this situation....seen this movie before.

Chasing ball four, ANOTHER pop up.

So many damn pop ups today.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Apr 12, 2008 -> 07:25 PM) Both have pretty damn good ones, but it seems to me that Floyd's has more vertical movement, or inside out action. Bobby just drops the 12-6 hammer when he throws a curve That's true....Jenks gets more swings and misses because the hitter is ready for the faster fastball. Floyd seems to throw his for called strikes a lot.

That was beautiful by Floyd.

Uribe made that play look really easy.

Floyd's just flirting with trouble. The problem is these ball fours haven't been close enough to make even Juan Uribe chase them.

Haha, congrats Cabrera!

Impressive at bat by Swisher, but a good catch by Jones.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 12, 2008 -> 05:30 PM) Floyd is very lucky its not about 20 degrees warmer. 2 would have been in the seats. Give it time...he has very little on his pitches.

Stay hot AJ. That was a beautiful swing.

QUOTE (DonnyDevito @ Apr 12, 2008 -> 05:16 PM) he did the same thing last night. konerko BLOWS right now. That's true...he should have got the day off today.

QUOTE (DonnyDevito @ Apr 12, 2008 -> 05:14 PM) Paul Konerko is certainly in the doghouse now. he sucks out there. 1st pitch hacking...he's worse than Uribe right now. I had no problem with that...he got a meatball fastball, and just missed it.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 12, 2008 -> 06:13 PM) For a guy that's supposed to be a .300 hiter I have not been impressed with the OC He's a career .272 hitter.

Another softly hit ball by Cabrera.

QUOTE (rudylaw @ Apr 12, 2008 -> 06:09 PM) I would like to see Cab try to steal some bags today if he can actualy get on base. Why? He's not fast, and Pudge is behind the plate. Verlander's also one of the best righties in the game with his move.

QUOTE (Want2Repeat @ Apr 12, 2008 -> 06:06 PM) Does it ever occur to a Sox pitcher (other than MB) to hold a runner? My goodness, Sheffield?? I think Sheffield had 22 steals last year.

A great defensive play by Carlos Quentin!

Dear Gavin Floyd: please act like a major leaguer and hold the runner.

Big out, as Sheffield grounds to Crede who gets Thomas out at home.

Get into the game Gavin!
