Tavarez is definitely gassed, and his pitches have been up in the zone. Nice job by PK of getting a good pitch to hit.

Nice approach by Thome.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 12:54 AM) The pessimism on this board is worse than on some Red Sox boards. Atleast the White Sox have a chance, although I do admit, since I've been at school, I haven't been able to watch them as much as I would like to. Thanks...I thought you didn't care what other team's boards thought?

Dye chases two different Ball fours.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 12:51 AM) Dear White Sox offense, Get your heads out of your f***ing asses or you will be in 2nd place in 9 outs. Thanks. Am I allowed to say that we're the 4th best team in the division right now? I'll be shocked if we win the 4 game series this coming wknd.

This inning courtesy of our LF playing on the warning track and Uribe not making a play that most major league caliber SS come up with.

What a shocker, Garland gets beat on a changeup.

Ozzie tried to get cute there. Absolutely idiotic to even throw him a pitch close to the plate.

FIRE OZZIE GUILLEN!

Huge DP! Walk Manny here, and go after Nixon.

QUOTE(Mr. Showtime @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 12:40 AM) Which makes no sense considering having to play balls off the wall. Pods has absolutely zero baseball IQ.

Uribe can't make a clutch play. Here comes trouble.

Keep playing on the warning track Pods. That liner would have been a routine play for Manny.

Nothing I like more than letting Iguchi and his zero speed swing away against a sinker ball pitcher. Iguchi hits about 3 balls hard every week now, and chops the ball on the infield in his other at-bats.

Iguchi with just a stupid, stupid at-bat. Ozzieball....we sit around and wait for the homer!

Wow, nice bunt by Pods. How about a hit-and-run?

Way to work the count Uribe....your string of amazing games continues.

Infield pop up, grounder to first base, and grounder to third base This is my prediction for the top of the 6th.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 12:27 AM) I hate how this game has progressed. With a scoreless game, I have this feeling Garland will make one mistake -- and end up losing. How our offense has handled Tavarez is embarrassing. We might as well start a pool about who will hit the solo homer in this game. My prediction is Hinske on a high changeup.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 12:25 AM) AJP has to be the stupidest f***ing player in baseball. Had a good first half when not attempting to pull everything. Now he sucks. You would think any idiot can spot the differences in his approach. His pitch calling has been worse than his approach at the plate in the 2nd half of the season.

Tavarez just made Anderson look like a Little Leaguer.

It's getting worse as this game goes on. We're not very funny to watch right now.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 12:06 AM) What do our hitters do before a game to prepare. Do they invision the ball only over the middle of the plate. Do they prepare their upper cut swings. I mean its like they have never seen a low and away pitch, yet lately this is all they see. I'm eagerly looking forward to having a new LF and SS next season, and getting Iguchi the hell out of the 2nd spot. QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 12:07 AM) Tavarez has pitched the equivalent of a 4-hit shoutout against us this season. No shock...he's a sinker ball pitcher with a good slider. Thus, we can't hit homers, and we try to pull the slider right to AGon.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 12:06 AM) This offense is a joke right now. Yep....I'd rather see Gload, Mackowiak, and Sweeney in this lineup right now. Our starters look gassed and just not interested. As my brother just said, the Sox aren't a playoff team.

QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 11:55 PM) October during the organizational meetings when he can blame everyone but himself. Gload can handle LF here as there is no room. Why he is not out there is a mystery. Heaven forbid Ozzie make a change. The great motivator can't make it look like he's in a panic. I also find it funny that Hawk always says the dumbest thing you can do is play on the warning track in LF at Fenway. Guess where Pods is playing tonight?
