QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 03:13 AM) Bobby really hasn't had to much control problems after his first few appearances. Obviously he allowed the walk in game 2 but to be honest the thing that scares me most about Bobby is that sometimes he's to much around the plate. You win with your best, you lose with your best. I want Jenks over Hermanson in a save situation. I don't want to see a flat slider by Hermanson hit out for a homer.

BTW, even though it's after the fact, great job by Ozzie of using a pr for Everett.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 03:12 AM) Tavares can't hit the porch (famous last words). I do worry that Berkman would face Cliff too instead of Cotts though Taveras hit a few deep fly balls in game one. Anyone in baseball can turn on a pitch and hit it out to LF.

Ozzie's probably thinking that Politte K'd Berkman when he faced him, and Cotts gave up a single to him.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 03:10 AM) I really don't know, that's what scares me. Looks like it's going to be Politte, who scares the s*** out of me with the short porch.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 03:08 AM) Then I'm hoping Neal to Bobby, nothing cute in between. Will Ozzie let Cotts face the righty Taveras?

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 03:06 AM) Great game Jon Garland. I supposed thats what toughness is. 2 ER. No reason to argue about this, as there's more important things. However, you could see a completely different approach by Garland once this team got the lead. He was stellar the last 3 innings, no question about it.

That should be all for Garland, as we can ph for him in the 8th.

Great f***ing pitch!

Biggio is going to be sitting on the fastball now.

Be honest...who else was worried PK was going to trip on the mound?

Good change-ups by Bagwell. Biggio really scares me with the short porch in LF. I hope Dye is playing close enough to have a play at the plate.

This should be his last batter. Not much on these last few pitches.

Garland's sinker is a little flat this inning. He's aiming the ball.

Throw some strikes Jon! If they want to give up the first out, take it from them.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:52 AM) I loove Aaron Neville (Hawk voice) He looks a little like Muhammad Ali.

I'm sorry, not to be rude, but I find it funny that this Rosa Parks moment of silence is taking place at a home game for possibly the whitest team in sports in the last 25 years.

Rowand is really going to have to work on how he keeps his hands at the plate.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:43 AM) Konerko walks on four pitches. Springer should have started that inning. Oh well, I'll take the runner. AJP has had seemed very focus at the plate. Cora can't do anything supid with PK on the bases though.

Another great inning by Garland. Lets keep getting base runners, and hopefully insurance runs will follow.

Great pitch/location. That was a change-up McCarver!

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:36 AM) I think your point was just made on that first swing by Morgan. Two very good pitches to hit up in the zone so far.

Ensberg is cheating on the inside fastball it seems, so Garland has to be careful with that sinker.

Still waiting for that Dye cheap homer to LF here.

Interesting approach this inning.
