We're facing Duke on Thursday now, who's a damn good lefty pitcher.

Nice strikeout. I wonder if we'll see Anderson come in to face the lefty here.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 01:02 AM) They gave our pitchers fits. We weren't going in and out against them enough. You need to get their hitters to move their feet.

Lucky that ball stayed in the park. That was right in Hernandez's wheel house.

Another very nice defensive play by Iguchi.

QUOTE(Maverick0984 @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 12:59 AM) why do we have such trouble beating s***ty teams? This game is a carbon copy of the type of games we've lost to Tampa and KC over the past few years.

Buehrle's been getting hit hard. Even Hawk is stating that this game has a terrible feel.

Something to look out for....Carlos Lee hit a homer against Zambrano, and had quite the pose after he hit it. It will be interesting to see if Zambrano throws at him next time.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 12:48 AM) You gotta admit, everytime you look at the scorebaord you see Detroit giving up very few runs. Their pitching staff is for real. It's very rare to see one of their starters give up 9 ERs in 6 innings. Which is why they can't be considered a fluke right now. Their pitchers have been amazingly consistent.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 12:46 AM) I guess that wasn't one of Iguchi's "weaknesses" I'm not sure if I was clear enough, but I was simply pointing out that Iguchi struggles on pop ups over the 1st baseman's head.

Very nice job by Buehrle. Nice to have the lead still in such a weird game.

2 very nice catches for our last two outs by Iguchi.

This ump won't call s*** for Buehrle now.

Any chance we have a lead after this inning?

What a f***ing joke.

f***...this game has a terrible vibe to it.

No called 3rd strikes.

I hate the National League.

Wow...we're such a slow team.

GREAT CATCH! I'll take giving up only one run, considering Randa was about 2 feet away from a slam. QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 12:30 AM) That's a very nice play there. Yep, especially considering that's one of his main weaknesses.

Whew....that was close.

Have we ever got this guy out in a tough spot?

Buehrle's getting squeezed this inning.

And here come the Pirates. Gotta hold them to one run this inning.

The great Anthony Reyes gave up 2 runs to the first 2 batters he faced tonight. I guess you can postpone his HOF induction. QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 12:20 AM) Anyone else hear AJ curse after he reached first? He was running quite slow to 1st base...are you sure he reached it?
