QUOTE(aboz56 @ Sep 13, 2006 -> 12:34 PM) Quit drinking the kool aid and realize that this team just isn't going to make it. You'll sleep a lot better at night. If I do that I'll be sad for a couple weeks longer than I probably will be anyways. Honestly I don't believe we'll make it, but I'm still holding hope especially if we get on a role and sweep Detroit.

Getting 2 out of 3 would be fine, let's get a win here.

That's a great streak. Granted there was a chance that the Expos would've won it in 1994 since they had the best record in baseball at the time but still it's an enourmous streak. It'll be interesting to see how far the Yankees can go.

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Sep 13, 2006 -> 12:08 PM) big difference between things being possible and things being highly unlikely. Can't remember the last time this team won five in a row. believe it has only won four straight once since the all-star break. unless we get real hot, real quick, we'll be watching world series DVDs in three weeks. No kidding, can we please get an 8 game winning streak like the numerous ones we had last year?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 12:38 PM) The national average is 2.61. That's the number that matters, not a single outlier in Iowa. It matters to me because I love having cheaper gas in Iowa. Last I knew it was like 2.25 in Cedar Falls, but that was on Sunday.

I'm going to believe we still have a shot, we need to sweep Detroit or hopefully have Minnesota start falling, which probably won't happen. I have faith the A's can beat Liriano tonight though.

The only way we have a shot in my opinion is if we sweep Detroit.

Well today pretty much sucked, Minnesota and Detroit came from behind to win, and Chicago lost.

This could be like the absolute worse case scenario tonight. It looked like we could close to within 2 games of Detroit and 1/2 of Minnesota, now we may be 4 games out of Detroit and 2 1/2 out of Minnesota.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 09:59 PM) you are about 20 minutes late Didn't the game just end though?

Twins score 4 in the 8th to win.

Dangit, the opposition needs tp win those close games against Detroit.

Abreu has 6 RBI's in the first with a 3-run homerun and a 3-run double. It's 9-0 Yankees in the bottom of the first.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Sep 12, 2006 -> 06:16 PM) I wonder who made the call? They probably did and surprisingly got it wrong.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Sep 11, 2006 -> 11:41 PM) TJ is that big black guy right? If so he comes off as an asshole to me whenevr I see him on TV and I cant stand Berman so Im glad that show got the axe yeah he is.

Something to be happy about I guess.

I noticed the other day that Frank raised his career batting average from .305 to .306. That's probably been the first time in a long time where he actually raised his career batting average.

Let's get a win. The White Sox need to win every series the rest of the season, let's go.

To the bottom of the 8th.

Another beautiful LIDP. I could get used to these.

Whew, a lot of hard hit balls that inning. Jose better watch out.

Yeah LIDP's are cooler than GIDP's but I'll take any when we're on defense.

that'll work, just in time for Vlad.

Yeah, too bad they don't make a CD of it, but I'd probably be the only one to buy it.

Is that 6 straight games now? Anyways Mauer is on first with no outs, so this game probably will be tied up again, if not a lead for the Twins. Yep, Cuddyer with a 2 run homer.
