QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 03:02 AM) Why not save Cotts and let Adkins go 2 innings??? I am prepared to get rippes lol. 5 runs against this offense isn't a guaranteed. We haven't used our pen too much this series. We can't allow them to get a rally going before Tejada bats next inning.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 03:01 AM) fathom, that's why we aren't managers. I know. I'm just happy we got out of that inning with a 5 run lead still. Just for future games, I think he needs to trust our pen more than that.

OK, that's 7 innings Garcia. Put Cotts in for the 8th.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 02:58 AM) There was the good breaking ball. How about 1 more? Rowand....what's your thoughts? Should Ozzie have pulled Garcia already?

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 02:56 AM) I hope he gives up a 3 run dong to let Ozzie know this stupid crap has concequences. Absolutely ridiculous he's still in.

So we pitch around a guy when we're up 5 runs? That's something you don't see every day.

TAKE HIM OUT OZZIE! Am I alone in thinking this is nuts?

Holy cow, he's leaving Garcia in the game? Crazy

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 02:52 AM) Wow, Freddy looks like s*** tonight. GET HIM OUT Should have been pulled after Byrnes homer.

Why is he still in the game? It's obvious he's hit the wall, and they're hitting rockets against him.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 02:51 AM) Did you miss the K-Zone on the pitch???? Must have when I went into the room with the computer.

Nice to get the first out, no matter how hard it was hit. Me thinks it's time to get Freddy out.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 02:48 AM) That pitch was right on the corner low and away. Hardly a hanger. Calm down, please. Are you watching a different game than I am? I thought the pitch to Byrnes was a hanger out over the plate.

Timo should have been closer to that there. Most outfielders rob that homer. Garcia should get pulled now, he's hanging everything!

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 02:40 AM) Damn, was hoping we could beat Ponson like a judge! There's definitely some joke you can make about Aruba right now, but they'd all be in bad taste.

Time to shut them down Garcia. Don't make this like KC in your last start.

BTW, I predict Ozuna at 2b tomorrow, and Blum at 3b.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 02:21 AM) f***, hate to see us strand runners like that against Chen, even with a lead like this. Rowand and Dye sure had some great pitches to hit that inning. Hopefully, it doesn't haunt us in the end.

QUOTE(That funky motion @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 02:08 AM) I like Stoney doing this game. He does know a lot about the Sox,and is not afraid to tell the nation. Can't stand Joe Morgan! Joe Morgan would be saying how every minority playing is the best at his position, etc. Morgan did call Sosa the best overall player in baseball two seasons ago.

Good job by Garcia there preventing the Orioles rally.

Yay Timo!!! Mercy, does Bruce Chen throw batting practice.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 01:53 AM) Bruce Chen coming in from the bullpen. LMAO, he is supposed to start tomorrow. I feel sorry for Baltimore.....NOT! That's why I said Penn or Ponson.

Uribe's swing is so much more quiet now than it had been. It would be nice of Timo to get this run in, and snap out of one of the worst individual starts ever in a baseball game for a single player (hard toaccount for 4 of the worst 9 outs)

Looks like we'll be facing Hayden Penn or Ponson tomorrow.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 1, 2005 -> 01:43 AM) Bean. Sosa. Now. He's helping us a lot more than he's hurting us right now.
