QUOTE (lostfan @ May 3, 2009 -> 07:04 PM) Did you already know he singled when you wrote this? I think your broadcast is a few seconds ahead of mine. No, I was impressed with his AB before the single.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2009 -> 07:04 PM) You absolutely, positively don't send Alexei there. Not down 3 and with Andruw's arm in LF. He was already at 3B by the time the ball fell when he saw the play was as close as it was he began to backtrack slowly. If Jones catches that ball Alexei is out, if he's gonna go on contact like that then he needs to go all the way.

Oh f***. Come on Alexei if you're gonna go, GO!

Another solid AB from Nix. Good to see.

If he just concentrated on doing that s*** he'd have a nice big league career.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 3, 2009 -> 06:49 PM) I don't live in Chicago. I'll be honest, I didn't even think of that. I feel foolish.

Jesus, Jayson Nix is a f***ing badass with the glove.

Holy f***ing hell. He still could have run on Pods.

Brian Anderson hit a ball through the screen 2 years ago, hit the guy in the chest pretty hard IIRC.

I'm shocked that so many of you are listening to the TV broadcast, like you didn't see this coming? It gets no worse than ESPN's #1 baseball TV booth. I'm thoroughly enjoying my Farmer/DJ experience.

I think the Corky Miller hot streak may be over. It sucks when you peak at 4 hits.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2009 -> 06:45 PM) Kalapse, another game where our first 4 innings is abysmal. Please keep those stats updated once in a while. I'll try.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2009 -> 06:38 PM) Yep, I honestly am shocked we didn't pursue Andruw. Oh well, shouldn't challenge the righty with a lefty on deck and 2 outs. Story of this series so far. How do you know we didn't? Does Jones coming out and saying time and time again that he wanted to play work with Rudy Jaramillo not jive with you? Makes sense to me and it seems to be working.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ May 3, 2009 -> 06:36 PM) The guy got his life together. Why do we have to dwell on negative s***, like that? Do we need to tear everybody down? My god you're sensitive about this sort of s***.

QUOTE (qwerty @ May 3, 2009 -> 06:33 PM) HEROIN! I'm so sick of hearing about him.

Wow, I haven't heard a word from of this broadcast but just watching it I know I'd be just steaming right about now.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2009 -> 06:24 PM) You can't say he's back until he takes a called 3rd strike. Top 5 in the game during his time with the Sox, it just seems like he hates to swing the bat.

Man this is bringing back so many memories. If Scotty Pods reaches on a swingless walk and gets picked off first (balks don't count) I might break down crying from this nostalgia overload.

Oh dear god, Podsednik nearly overran that one.

At least it's not Floyd on the mound otherwise that unearned run would be as good as scored.

f***ing A Wilson, gotta make that play.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ May 3, 2009 -> 06:16 PM) A warning hasn't been issued yet...Alexei is really terrible so far. The umpire can and will toss a pitcher without previously warning both sides.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2009 -> 06:15 PM) He might lead our team in doubles this year while getting 200 ABs. He's off to a banner start, one less than team leader Konerko and 5 times more than Quentin. Oh Alexei, you're giving us nothing.
