QUOTE(knightni @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 02:24 AM) Is he throwing 86mph fastballs? No, they said it was 97 mph before.

QUOTE(klaus kinski @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 02:19 AM) This is one of those No Walk-Up games attendance wise This was the series that had the lowest pre-sales for the entire season. However, I'm pretty sure that the pre-sales for this series were still higher than the pre-sales for last season's opening series vs the Indians.

Anderson turned on the ball!!! Foul, of course.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 02:08 AM) Bruce Chen I believe. Yes it was, and with all those righties in the lineup, poor Chen didn't have much of a chance.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 02:04 AM) AWESOME DP by the Sox. I think the camera view took about a year off of all of our lives....except for Jabroni of course, since his Indians are winning big tonight.

YES!

Great, great pitch to Grudz.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 02:02 AM) Cotts and Jenks both up.... I don't want to see us bring in a lefty to face Mient, as Graffy is a better match-up vs Cotts than a righty is vs Mient.

Not a promising start to this inning. We don't want Sweeney batting with 2 on or as the tying run.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:58 AM) You love your Ron Santo jokes. Yes...I have such a level of hatred for him. If I offend anyone....well, I'm not really sorry.

Strike 3? Take advantage of that Dye.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:57 AM) Cleveland is dropping the s*** hammer on Baltimore. Lefties are going to have a hell of a time with that lineup this season.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:56 AM) CMON DOUBLE STEAL. Ron Santo has just a good of a chance as stealing as these guys do.

Quick prediction: If PK pops up, we're going to see the bat throw and shoulder shrug.

Mercy....that ball was hit hard. Big insurance run. Sisco has not had a lot of luck against us in his career.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:49 AM) Awesome. Pods is def back. If we could just get a competent offensive contribution by our center fielder, we'd have a tremendous offense.

Excellent Pods

Absolute carbon copy of his first hit of the year vs Sisco.

Yuck

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:43 AM) Ball to the gap caught by JD. Good job Bmac! Wonder if there is somebody different in the 8th. Nope, it will definitely be him.

Good job McCarthy. He's in for quite a battle in the top of the 8th, so it would be nice to get a few insurance runs.

Dye's footwork is making me a little jittery tonight.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:39 AM) I wonder if Ozzie is going to have a quick hook with Garland this season. I'm about 99 pct certain it was a situation where he wanted Garland to go out of the game with the chance to win and keep his confidence up.

This is a situation where Berroa has hurt us in the past. And it looks like McCarthy is coming in.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:36 AM) Why would he be out? He's given up 5 hits (only 3 hit hard) and 0 walks in 6 IP. Who in their right mind would take a pitcher out with a pitch count of 75 in that situation? And the last person to make such a move would be Ozzie, in all honesty.
