Garcia is just phenomenal at home. One more hit, and he will have allowed 10 hits in 4 of his last 6 starts.

How long will Ozzie let Garcia go tonight? I'm guessing 7 innings and 14 hits.

Garcia pitches like a pussy to Mauer, and pays for it. 4 game losing streak, here we come!

Congrats asshole!

Had him down 0-2, and then walks him. Keep the ball in the park....please! I hope whoever bashed Morneau didn't jinx us.

Get him out Freddy

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 01:32 AM) You mean like Justin Morneau, Michael Ryan, and Jason Bartlett? Morneau and Ryan were big time contributors when they were first called up. Morneau will be a guaranteed 30 homer per year player during his career.

Tough inning for Garcia here.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 01:30 AM) How come our minor leaguers don't come up and tear up the majors for their first couple of weeks like the Twins players always do. Cause we absolutely suck at developing minor league players into MLB ready players.

Yuck. I'm not sure Anderson could hit a ball well against Radke if he faced him 10 times. Not bashing Anderson at all. Just not a good pitcher to face in your first game.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 01:29 AM) Can someone with TV coverage tell me how Anderson has looked? Like a pitcher

Give 'em a thrill Timo!

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 01:27 AM) Ouch. Mariano blows a save against Tampa Bay. Eduardo Perez is a stud. I'd love him on this team as a righty bat off of the bench.

Crede needs to take a seat on the bench. No one in baseball looks worse during a slump than Crede.

The sad thing is I have just as much confidence in Timo getting a hit off of Radke as I do anyone else on the Sox. With the way Timo drags his bat through the zone, I could see how he could hit change-ups well.

Just no double plays here Crede. We need someone on base for Timo.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 01:23 AM) anything deserving any retalliation of any sort? No, actually Abernathy deserves a medal. He could have easily just destroyed Iguchi on that play. He took his leg away at the last second. Iguchi was basically a standing target just asking to get blasted.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 01:21 AM) for those of us not watchin....was that close to being a triple play at all? did iguchi even throw to 1b? No. Iguchi is very, very lucky he still has knee ligaments or shins left.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 01:20 AM) You should go be a fortune teller fathom. Yep, just like when you told me yesterday that I was stupid to predict a meltdown by Contreras in the 4th inning? JK jphat, I actually enjoy our back-and-forth conversation.

Iguchi was extremely close to getting taken out big time right there. Thankfully, Abernathy backed off at the last second.

Wow, excellent! Not quite sure why Stewart wasn't bunting.

It's situations like this where Stewart has just killed us since he became a Twins player.

That tie game doesn't look like it's going to last long.

Watch out for the hit-and-run.

Wouldn't it be great for a Sox player to take a level swing like Cuddyer just did there?
