Can we just boo Ozzie and McCarthy out of the freaking stadium? If McCarthy hadn't sucked last night, then MacDougal and Thornton might have been fresh for tonight.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 08:25 PM) The way Ozzie uses McCarthy makes me hate him. He's just a pathetic reliever. Yep...he sucks now. I hope KW knew what he was doing when he refused to trade him.

McCarthy got away with a meatball to Michaels last inning....so we leave him in to face a guy who's destroying righties lately. Great managing.

Awful! Why would you just pipe a pitch like that? MCCARTHY CAN'T BE PITCHING IN A CLOSE GAME!!!!!!!

I would have liked to see Thornton start this inning.

QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 08:21 PM) Didn't Ozzie threaten to dump him publicly three games ago? But...but...but...Ozzie knows how to handle his players. QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 08:22 PM) Our approach is terrible. You'd think Ozzie or Walker would have something to say about this. We can't lose another game because we refuse to get any kind of hits besides homers. Can McCarthy not allow a homer this inning?

QUOTE(3E8 @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 08:21 PM) Well like you said earlier I agree that our best shot against CC is to be ready early in the count for fastballs so it's kind of a double-edged sword. Yes, so if he's going to swing, don't take the half-assed approach he's been doing today. He looks like a pitcher at the plate too often.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 08:20 PM) Can the Sox score before the Bears offense does, LOL. Nope

Yep...we're definitely trying to make sure C.C. can finish this game.

Swing like you mean it Mr. Anderson. He looks absolutely pathetic right now.

Wow....that was too close. Ozuna almost missed that.

McCarthy coming in.....it seems like it's been a while since he had a good outing.

Uribe and Thome are the two guys that should be looking for first pitch fastball from C.C. Their game plan today seems to be to take the strikes over the plate, and swing at balls.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 08:09 PM) Pinch hitting for Uribe sure seems appropriate. No, he's been swinging well lately.

Oh boy...McCarthy's up in the pen.

We're trying our best to make sure C.C. can go 9 innings today. Horses*** approach by the Sox today.

You get the feeling we're going to need another homer to win this game.

Hawk probably thinks he's so clever by repeating Johan Cytana.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 07:52 PM) He's got the meatball pitch down this inning. And made a good pitch on the 3-2.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 07:51 PM) Nibble nibble nibble. He's got the meatball pitch down this inning.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 07:51 PM) Thome has been virtually unclutch since the all star break. Just another after the all star break trend. He's fit in perfectly with the corpseball era. It's kinda ironic how great Thomas is doing now with the A's.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 07:49 PM) Nice clutch hitting, Thome. I would have rather seen Sandy up in that AB.

We need to find a way to get the momentum back in this game.

Hey Ozzie...next time we face C.C., DON'T PLAY THOME!

They'd be nuts to throw Thome a fastball here. He has no chance on the slider.
