QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:22 AM) Why is this happening?????? There will be some books written about this team, don't worry. BTW, I've been hearing a lot of people mention it as "The Southside Collapse"

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:21 AM) 2 out walks. 2 out walks. f***ing bases on balls. Just throw the ball down the heart of the plate. I don't care if they kill the ball. Just please don't walk them. Give your defense a chance to do something. We have been murdered tonight because of 2 walks. Unlike the White Sox, if you throw a meatball to the Indians, they're going to hammer the ball.

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:20 AM) Tonight...This team is finished. Making the playoffs would be by default thanks to a fluke first half. This team hasn't earned a playoff spot in my mind. This team is ridiculous at the worst time to be so... And I only hope we can get rid of Ozzie! I'm not blaming tonight's loss on him, but I just don't think he has the slightest f***ing clue what he's doing out there. To continually use Marte instead of Cotts is just f***ing ridiculous. I feel bad for Cliff Politte, who for some reason was passed over.

It's time to send Hermanson to the glue factory. Shut him down for the rest of the season, cause he just can't get guys out now.

I would let Crede hit, and have Gload bat for Pods.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:16 AM) Not to be a front runner, but at what point do the fans boo our boys off the field? I guess we all have to keep the faith; it was a pretty damn good game. On Thursday night, if we haven't won a game on this home stand, when we're getting no hit by Johan in the 5th.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:15 AM) To be this horses*** at home in big games is amazing the last 6 weeks. Ever since Contreras allowed that grand slam to Aramis Ramirez in the first inning of the Cubs game.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:14 AM) If there is one consolation, this was the hardest game of the series for us. Buerhle and Garland against Westbrook and Elarton are easier than ERA leader Millwood versus s***-pitcher Freddy Garcia. THERE'S NO MORE f***ING CONSOLATION GAMES!!! Haven't we conceeded enough games when we faced Johan...or the great Wade Miller....or Barry Zito!

QUOTE(ChiSox_Sonix @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:13 AM) Theres a lot of baseball left but i have this terrible feeling that this game is signaling the division for Cleveland Don't worry....the Yankees have Bubba Crosby to come up with clutch hits for them.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:13 AM) We are performing one of the worst choke jobs in sports history. "We"? f*** that, the White Sox and their whole organization are. "We", the Sox fans, have nothing to do with this.

QUOTE(sircaffey @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:13 AM) He's down 0-2...thanks to Ozzie....Did that make his job easier. Dye does NOT BUNT EVER. His success hitting it to the right side is MUCH MUCH MUCH better than getting a bunt down. His whole career backs that up...Jesus Ozzie... And it's exactly the same thing that happened to Dye previous this season. If Ozzie wanted the bunt, he should have put in Willie Harris. Will someone please tell Ozzie he has an extended bench?

QUOTE(greg775 @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:11 AM) this continues to be a bad dream like couch wrote the other day You thought the media was bad before tonight's game?

WE SUCK!!! If we lose this game, we don't deserve to make the playoffs. I hope we ship off Ozzie, KW, and Walker.

Great, Uribe's way in-between. Had a fantastic pitch to hit, and looked to be thinking too much.

Nice job of Rowand pulling the outside slider.

Boone can turn around a 99 mph fastball, but we're way behind Howry's fastball?

What a horses*** AB. Thankfully, our fearless leader have him give up the first strike by asking him to bunt, something that has been unsuccessful with Dye about 5 times this season.

All Howry has to do is throw a slider low, and he'll K Dye.

And Dye's in the hole because he's asked to try and bunt.

HE CAN'T BUNT!!! Does Ozzie even follow his own team during the season?

Note to Ozzie: Dye is a bad bunter!!! You're better off letting him try to drive the ball to right field.

QUOTE(S720 @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 03:02 AM) Don't f***ing blame that on Ozzie. We ALL wanted Jenks. He failed this time. Have the gut to accept defeat. You are such a WHINER JOSH! I was pissed that Ozzie put Marte into the game, but Jenks had one guy to get out, and he failed.

Ozuna!!

Boone had pretty good swings at the first two fastballs he saw. As Jason just said, you had to try and blow him away upstairs. There are a lot of players that were going to hit that 2-2 pitch that he smoked.
