f*** yeah Dye! Massive credit to Ozzie for having Willie leadoff this inning. His approach works very well against someone like Lidge.

A wild pitch would be quite nice. I really wish we would have tried something aggressive instead of going with smallball.

Damn, we still need a single off of Lidge to score the runner.

Great AB by Willie. I wouldn't bunt right away here. I'd try to get Harris to steal 2nd prior to the bunt.

Willie's turn to be a hero?

QUOTE(greg775 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:59 AM) hey fathom i'm not being critical, just curious. when did you get your game face on in the playoffs. you were saying at the start of the bosox series you were just happy to be in the playoffs and would not be critical at all. You were brutal on Oz last night. Again, just curious. For the Red Sox series, I was like the fat girl at the prom...just happy to be there. Once they advanced, it became a different situation.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:57 AM) LOL. He would have had no chance to score on that play. If he's busting his ass all the way, he has a chance to score. I'm pretty sure Berkman's throw was off line to his cut-off man. You know Cora would have taken a chance.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:57 AM) Yah. Juan can't hit that pitch. Just too good for him. The last two sliders were definitely hittable. If he even had the slightest clue about driving it to RF, he could have crushed that first slider.

Rowand just put himself in territory to become famous for choking on the base paths.

Uribe had a great pitch to hit there.

Do you guys think Rowand would have scored if he kept going? There's no excuse for that by Rowand.

QUOTE(fathom @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:41 AM) Garcia rarely throws his fastball past people . As I was saying. Good job Freddy!

Garcia rarely throws his fastball past people .

Lots of offspeed pitches up in the zone.

Garcia has lost command of his pitches.

WALK HIM!

Be careful with Lamb here. Change-up should be the pitch of choice. NO WILD PITCHES!

QUOTE(Harry&JimmyRocked @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:32 AM) this seems like freddy's "lose my concentration" inning So they'll score via a wild pitch?

Wow, definitely got away with that.

Tough situation here, as I have a feeling Ensberg is going to be sitting on that slider.

Garcia's in some trouble here. You can't give in to Berkman.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:23 AM) I can't wait until there is a big Soxtalk get together so I can get everybodies autographs. I had no idea we had so many big leaguers that came in the game threads. It's a privledge to be here with you guys. Only White Sox fans can get pissed at their players in a 0-0 game after winning 10 out of 11 in the playoffs. I don't give a flying f*** how many games they've won in a row, etc. They have 4 games left to win one game. The offense didn't come to play tonight, and if they go in a slump, the Astros have the pitching to shut us down for quite a while.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:21 AM) I'm gonna trust the guy with the .400+ OBP and .922 OPS in the playoffs thank you very much. And I don't think he has one hit on the first pitch during the playoffs. As DAllen just said, if you swing at the first pitch, try to be dangerous, and don't just play pepper with the SS.

QUOTE(Elcaballo45 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:20 AM) Has there been an out today that hasn't been critized on here? Yes, Garcia's two outs.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 02:19 AM) You wouldn't have said that if he tripled into right center. Yes, but he didn't, and he took a rather weak swing at the fastball.
