Cotts is in. Has to throw strikes with this tight zone.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ May 24, 2006 -> 02:18 AM) There is no doubt in my mind that the Royals will blow this. At least they still have the lead. Maybe the Tigers will hit 6 line drives right at the defenders.

I wonder if AJP was bracing for having to knock over Ellis?

I'll take it!! Looks like a rocket in the box score.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 24, 2006 -> 02:13 AM) But then who would Big Jon and Javy beat up on? That was pretty funny

PH Pablo!! Just kidding.

Very nice AJ!

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ May 24, 2006 -> 02:10 AM) Last night's game was probably the best game I've ever been to. It's at least the best in the last five years. Yeah, that would have been a great game to go to. Obviously, game 2 of the World Series would be the ultimate game to have gone to. It's too bad...I used to think that being at the Carlos Lee homer/Valentin walkoff single against Rivera was a cool game to say you were at.

I do find it ironic that we're one of the worst bunting teams in baseball, yet we win on a walkoff bunt last night. Kotsay's going to take a leak.

Great swings by Thome tonight.

QUOTE(Felix @ May 24, 2006 -> 01:59 AM) Trust me, I understand you hate them But this is a White Sox game thread, and the Sox were in a pretty big situation there (I think so at least), yet you guys seem concentrated on the Cubs game. Something is wrong there.. I understand your point about how the Sox were in a big situation also.

Here's where Pods should be stealing.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ May 24, 2006 -> 01:57 AM) What the f*** is wrong with you. Give him a break...he just started following baseball two years ago. Maybe he was a fan of Colombian soccer before this.

QUOTE(Felix @ May 24, 2006 -> 01:57 AM) Do you guys really care enough about the Cubs to be posting about their game in a Sox/A's gamethread? I mean seriously.. Yep...I hate them, and I figured a lot more people hated them after last wknd. I know you like them, so it won't do anything for you. I think Dempster should be less concerned about trying to make funny one-liners, and focus more on closing the door.

Great pitch Vazquez!!

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ May 24, 2006 -> 01:55 AM) I want to see Nelson versus Frank tonight. Nelson should only be used against Frank and Crosby tonight.

MIKE JACOBS!!!

Good positioning and play by Cintron. Gotta keep Swisher in the park.

BTW....Marlins have bases loaded, one out, down one in the 9th.

Lets hope Ozzie doesn't leave Vazquez in too long.

Ha...way to make the new pitcher throw a strike. QUOTE(rudylaw @ May 24, 2006 -> 01:47 AM) Crede is hitting a super .087 over the last 7 days. 2-23 It's been a very soft 2-23.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ May 24, 2006 -> 01:42 AM) Mack is taking very protective swings with 2 strikes. He "cuts-and-slashes" more than anyone I've seen.

In case no one heard this, Ozzie said today that Mackowiak's going to be playing against most righty pitchers for the time being.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ May 24, 2006 -> 01:41 AM) I hope Crede isn't back to his old self now. You had to know he would be his streaky self. He's way too pull happy right now.

Well...he got thru the 5th. He made a huge pitch in this game on the 3-2 to Crosby.
