So Pods isnt hitting, and isnt running, and now isnt catching fly balls. Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At some point our speedy fast porshe will start to hit the ball on the ground and use his speed to get to tirst. Instead of hitting fly balls.

Worst home run call ever. I had no clue it was a home run until the very very end. Its a line drive, over the left fielders head, its uh over the wall for a homer.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 12:27 PM) JD k's on ball four Maybe someone should hypnotize him so he thinks its June.

Hopefully Farmio takes over the PBP soon. I am getting quicker updates in the game thread.

Thome K's looking. f***.

Runners on the corners for Thome. LOL now they have to pitch to him.

Farmio needs to do more play by play. Singleton doesnt paint any picture when he does play by play. The only way you know if the ball was a hit or not is by the crowd reaction.

Freddy Ks Shelton

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 11:52 AM) When your leadoff hitter has not scored a run, the offense tends to look bad. That and when you leave leadoff doubles stranded.

Bonderman broke more of a sweat warming up than he did in that inning.

QUOTE(Y2HH @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 11:43 AM) Wow aren't you all a bunch of kool-aid drinkers. Before Thome came up you were all singing Cubbie doom-and-gloom songs about how much everyone on this team sucks, and how much life sucks. Then Thome comes to bat. What's going on around here?! We lose a couple of games to start the season and you guys turn into Cub-like fans. What a difference a year can make. Is this the first time you have posted in a game thread? Cub like fans sound more like. Well even though we are down 190-2 we are still the attendance champs.

Thome is our offense. Gooch at least was on base for him. 2-2 folks.

Hanging breaking ball slammed over the fence after his walk.

Monroe robs AJ of extra bases and the sox of a run.

Kong goes the other way, off the wall he is on 2nd with a leadoff double.

Crede and Kong save Pods. The error dies with a 6-3.

Pods misplayed the ball hit to him. Single and an error. Irod at 2nd. Pods needs to get his head out of his ass.

Garcia gets ahead 0-2, and then just like the top of the first the leadoff hitter pops out to 3rd.

QUOTE(brijames @ Apr 10, 2006 -> 11:11 AM) Bonderman is gonna be next to impossible to beat today. Its called elevating his pitch count, fouling off pitches, and getting into the tiger bullpen. That should be the game plan today.

Offense is starting out hot today for the sox. That was quick. Hopefully Garcia is throwing his good stuff today.

Pods gets the count to 3-0, takes a strike then pops out to Inge. He needs to get more line drive swings.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 9, 2006 -> 10:44 AM) We are due for an Alex Cintron sighting pretty soon. Probably when we face Bonderman as he has a tight slider and Ozzie will throw the entire left handed lineup against him.

Scott E. throws a 2 strike chest high pitch to get people to chase and get under the ball and pop it up in the infield. When he gets to us, its because we are not patient at the plate and chase that high pitch. Once we start chasing that his curve becomes a much more effective pitch. Swing at stuff near the strikezone, lay off crap high and we should be okay. We need this game, because if Freddy brings his 85 mph heat to the Tigers tomorrow we are in for a world of hurt.

Hopefully Mark and AJ decide to IBB Mike Freakin Sweeney tomorrow. Lets see if someone else can beat us on their team.
