Wow, Inge really helped out Shingo there. It's Polanco's turn again to be the hero.

I hate this umpiring crew

Great, Inge has already seen Shingo's pitches tonight. Unless Hermanson is unavailable tonight, this is the worst managing of the year by Ozzie (which is hard to do considering some of the other s*** he's done this year).

What the f*** was Ozzie thinking? This is just ridiculous. You have to put your closer in if you're up 1 in the bottom of the inning. You don't play in case of more extra innings.

Shingo has never been a pitcher who stayed sharped after a lot of pitches in a game/multiple innings.

Wow, that's awful luck right there. I absolutely disagree about not using Hermanson. YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME! Put his ass in there, and get the 3 outs, and worry about tomorrow. We still have Marte, dont we?

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:52 AM) Go for it, I dont say much around here when the Sox lose so go look for something. See, like I said, people have different ways of expressing themselves. Myself, jabroni, others are on these gamethreads nearly every day, no matter what. Go around and look at gamethreads for any sport. There's so many twists and turns in a game, there are always posts that either look like they're straight from a crystal ball.....or from Ron Santo's legs.

I will be pissed if Rowand is not in the game in the bottom of the inning for defensive reasons.

Who's going to be pitching in the bottom of the inning? Is it true that Hermanson is on bereavement leave?

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:48 AM) Eat s*** all you Thomas bashers! (fathom and all your negative buddies) Classy. I would love to go back and tell you to eat s*** for every opinion that you've ever said that was wrong, etc. We're all Sox fans here....some just with different opinions, beliefs, and ways of expressing how they feel different than others.

HAHAHAHA.....You simply have to just laugh at things sometimes. However, it's great when it's something good that happens!!!! Well done Frank!

Does DJ just try and jinx the Sox whenever possible?

BE CAREFUL WITH PUDGE!

Absolutely f***ing pathetic. Meanwhile, our manager sits on his ass waiting for the 3 run homer.

Not the time for Pods to try and swing for his first homer.

Station-to-station baseball.

AJP trying to pull a low change-up off the outside corner. Just a terrible approach (btw, Donkey, I avoided saying swinging for the fences).

QUOTE(Brian @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:28 AM) Anyone notice lately that Pods has been swinging a lot more freely, instead of taking pitches and working a count? Hope the disease isn't spreading to him. As of last week, he had walked like 3 times in his previous 24 games. He's been a little more effective lately at drawing walks, but he's still a lot different at the plate than he was earlier in the year.

Shingo looked great that inning, but I don't like his chances against the heart of the Tigers lineup next inning. We really need to score a run this inning.

Great job by Shingo there of keeping the ball down. My eyes might have been playing tricks on me, but did Iguchi almost come up too early on that ball?

Seen this story with Polanco up, haven't we?

QUOTE(iWiN4PreP @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:22 AM) If we lose tonight it will be only are 6th? lose vs a AL central team, and are 25th lose all year. Facts are stubbourn things. If you think that this particular offense is going to be able to perform at the high level that you seem to think they will, then you're just as delusional as anyone here who's supposedly a bad fan for saying Frank sucks right now, etc.

QUOTE(Ozzie Montana @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:21 AM) Ozzie needs to bring in Nermy. Viz has got nothing in the tank. Hermanson will not pitch unless it's a save situation. Ozzie is on the record saying that is a 100 pct guarantee.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 02:19 AM) He should have never been tossed out there for a 3rd inning. We have seen this before... With all the off days we've had recently, no excuse for us not to have a fresh bullpen.

You never want your reliever to see the same batters twice in a game. I have no clue what Ozzie is thinking right now. And there's a hit.......f*** YOU OZZIE
