  1. QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:25 AM) Everytime aj sets up outside in this park against lance I get scared. I get nervous everytime he swings. He really can make this park look small. Good positioning though, and a great job by Garland shutting them down.
  2. QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:24 AM) I didn't say there was anything wrong with it. It's just the way you are. You see the 3 guys we left on base and not the 5 that we plated. Nothing wrong with that. Just the way it is. Yeah, I was sure pissed that we scored those 5 runs. I know we disagree on everything, but I would hope you'd think I have a little bit better sense for baseball than that.
  3. QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:23 AM) Can you magically gain a sinker feel like you can a curveball? Yep
  4. QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:22 AM) Thats true, I remember that incident. That count and situation is not where I anticipate Roy throwing at him to hit him, even if Joe has homered earlier. Earlier tonight, I predicted he was going to plunk AJP tonight.
  5. QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:20 AM) It's not greedy at all. It's just looking at things the way you always look at them. Wow, no need for you to be difficult about it. We had the chance to go for the juggular. Uribe had a solid AB, just couldn't get the big hit. Sorry, but even though I'm thrilled to get the lead in this game, a one run lead in this park isn't a guaranteed winner.
  6. Oswalt has always been known as someone that has no problem hitting another batter. The confrontation between him and M. Barrett was quite comical last year.
  7. Well, hard to not sound greedy, but that was a big out there. Garland has to face the top of the order here.
  8. We just need to be quiet and not give the Astros any extra spark.
  9. This is a huge batter in this game, and potentially the series.
  10. How did Mr. "Struggles with offspeed pitches" lay off that pitch? Good eye Rowand.
  11. QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:12 AM) I thought that was f***ing out. He crushed it. Yeah, but then you have to remember what part of the field he hit it to. I was concerned for a second it might be a ground-rule double.
  12. AJP! Holy s***, he destroyed that f***ing pitch. Keep it going boys...prove a lot of us wrong.
  13. Haha....base running always seems just a little too difficult for the Sox.
  14. Holy cow! What a great f***ing AB by Dye fighting off tough pitch after tough pitch. Still don't think it was smart to give up the first out.
  15. QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:06 AM) That ball hit jermaine's jersey??? Yes it did
  16. QUOTE(greg775 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:04 AM) like he said, welcome to the natl league fathom. It's too early to jerk your starter. Why is it too early? We have plenty of guys to go to that are fresh, and enough to not compromise the rest of the series. When you're down by 3, you need to worry about scoring first, and let the pitching resolve itself. Good discussion though
  17. QUOTE(greg775 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:01 AM) WE HAVE A BULLPEN FULL OF GUYS WHO HAVEN'T BEEN USED! What's the point of having Vizcaino if we're not going to play the game with urgency? who says we're not going to play this game with urgency fathom? This pitcher ain't exactly James Baldwin. He can make ya look dead. The urgency aspect is this: Who knows how many more chances we'll get in this game. We had a runner on base with the number 9 hitter coming up. If you get that number 9 hitter on base, then you have the chance at a big inning with the top of the order coming up. It's not like we need to keep Garland in because he's doing such a good job at shutting down the Astros.
  18. QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 01:59 AM) So you think Vizcaino gives us a better chance right now? I just absolutey HATED giving up the first out of the inning with someone who isn't used to swinging.
  19. QUOTE(greg775 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 01:59 AM) we need more longballs. we ain't a small ball team Especially at a place where you can't score from 2nd on a single to LF (unless Pods is in the outfield).
  20. Stupid managing....but it likely won't have an impact on the outcome of this game.
  21. WE HAVE A BULLPEN FULL OF GUYS WHO HAVEN'T BEEN USED! What's the point of having Vizcaino if we're not going to play the game with urgency?
  22. We have to play for the big inning. A sac bunt just gives them that first out, and settles down Oswalt.
