YES! FINALLY! EVEN THE LAST GROUNDER TOOK FOREVER.

Wow...he would have had him easily at 2nd base.

Crede...what are you doing? That would have been a routine play for Cintron.

We knew it wouldn't be easy. Use the hook Jenks!

It's too bad Torre's not letting Wilson hit. He would have no chance against Jenks. Jenks has to keep the ball up on Bernie. He's a great low ball hitter.

Posada was sitting on the fastball. Good think Jenks had a lot of velocity on it.

QUOTE(Friend of Nordhagen @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:49 AM) I liked how we handled Proctor. Just think, Garcia's fastball 5 years ago used to be in the same mph range as Proctor.

Watch the first pitch fastball to Posada.

QUOTE(GoRowand33 @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:47 AM) stupid proctor stupid Schoeneweis.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:46 AM) My point was moreso.....Jeter in 2004 had an 0 for 37 slump, and the fans in NY STILL loved him. Can you imagine what they'd do to A-Rod if he had that kind of slump? Trade him for Loaiza.

Proctor's fastball seems like it's 110 mph.

QUOTE(AbeFroman @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:43 AM) Thats partially true.... but the two teams he has left both got better in the season after he departed. Yeah, but didn't the Mariners add Ichiro when he left? Also, he was amazing with Texas. It was just that they had no pitching.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:41 AM) That comes with makin' 25 million a year. Of course. Don't get me wrong, he deserves some criticism. In some ways, I feel bad for him. He's going to end up being one of the best players in baseball history, and he plays in front of fans that hate him. It's like if Pods had to play in front of me and tito and milkman every game.

ROUTINE! Did Hawk say "that's gone"?

QUOTE(AbeFroman @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:40 AM) For being a superstar, Alex rodriguez seems mentally weak For being a superstar, ARod seems to be criticized far too much.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:39 AM) DON'T SPEED UP HIS BAT! Like I said, good pitch.

DON'T SPEED UP HIS BAT!

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:38 AM) ARod v Thorton.... this match up scares me. He has to get that fastball up.

Holy cow...where was that first pitch to ARod?

QUOTE(AbeFroman @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:35 AM) or... you know... if he's not an option tonight for Torre, thats a victory Proctor coming in that inning makes me think that he's available.

QUOTE(SoxHawk1980 @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:34 AM) It's amazing how BMac can do no wrong, even when he does wrong. His ERA is over 4 and pretty much everyone still acts like the sun shines out of his arse. He certainly hasn't pitched like an ace-to-be this season. There's lots of trouble in the rotation, but BMac doesn't fill me with confidence that he'd fix it. He did a great job getting out of the 6th inning, but he got far too much of the plate with his fastball to their 8-9 hitters with 2 outs. McCarthy's fastball is only good when he can get it above the letters.

One of the worst games from the 3-4 guys all season.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 11, 2006 -> 04:26 AM) Proctor has thrown like 200 innings in like 100 appearances out of their pen. Ok not that much, but his workload for a bullpen guy has been obnoxious. Thome hits into a 4-6 fielders choice. Good hustle to avoid the double play at least. And more grass on the way towards 2nd base is killed by Jim *sighs*. Who's killed more grass tonight? Jim Thome or Freddy Garcia?

Here comes the fastball PK....get on top of it and crush it.

Another grounder to 2nd base?
