Its to keep the clubhouse in tact, nothing else. Maybe I'm more old school then Ozzie. D0 what's best for the team to produce. Our run production lately has been CRAP ( no offense to Richard or Poreda). Having Beckham at the bottom of the order is akin to putting Dye there as far as hitting ability goes. Beckham is a run producer plain and simple and this team needs run production. In my mind he isn't a rookie and he can handle it. We need wins and coddling the other hitters isn't producing enough wins.

OK I can say it now . It's the Twinkiedome, none of you really expected MB to get it did you? I'm just hoping we can pull out a win.

oops

Helluva job now all I care about is winning ( ok maybe a no hitter)

45

44

Dye Yes !!!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 28, 2009 -> 06:31 PM) No. Johnny Vandermeer through two straight no hitters back in the 20's IIRC. 1938

MLB channel excited .

43... 5 perfect.

Record !!

Good luck BA hope your career can last a few more years.

Runs coming for Sox.

Hard to believe Richard will be moved to the pen after 2 incredibly good starts. I'll believe it when I see it happen. But don't forget we have Garcia, too ,who did this in his 1st rehab start for Kanny courtesy of their website: Garcia, a two-time American League All-Star, fired three shutout innings in his first official start with the White Sox organization in 2009. The 33-year-old right-hander did allow two hits and walk a batter, but he also induced two double plays and struck out three to keep the Braves off the board. Garcia was limited to three innings as he builds his way back to the Bigs, but looked sharp in his brief stint. He seemed to focus primarily on his off-speed pitches, flashing both an effective slider and curveball.

Nice Pena but you still weren't worth Brandon Allen who has 6 HR's in 11 games for Reno , the D'backs AAA team.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 07:30 PM) There's no way they can send him to the pen now is there? Nope.

QUOTE (beautox @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 07:29 PM) do you let the kid come out for his first CG? YES !

Beckham looks locked in.

Right on CR , another quality start . He's a stopper.

Since when have 402 foot HR's become "tape measure ."

Looked similiar to the pitch Alexei took that was a strike called a ball. Now let's see if Beckham can make them pay.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 14, 2009 -> 06:53 PM) Mark threw one inning of scoreless ball. He worked quick. Way to represent Mark! Make that one PERFECT inning.

Thanks Jason and BearSox

I talked to my best friend Mike last night. He wanted to come over and watch baseball. He's a Cub fan and I told him the Cubs had beat the Phillies. He was happy. I had to tell him no about coming over because my daughter , who just got her degree in Architectural Engineering, is staying with me now in my one bedroom apartment, so room is scarce. He enjoyed watching the Sox with me also. I made a bet with him early in the year $50 says the Cubs don't make it to the World Series. I felt like I was taking advantage of him and often joked recently that he wasn't remembering right and the bet was for $500 (which it originally was). At the end of the phone call he said "See you tommorrow at work." This morning my boss made an announcement that Mike had a massive coronary and died. Then I come home and see Mark had thrown a perfect game. I know logically one has nothing to do with the other but in my mind I can't help but think it's Mike's way of saying goodbye. R.I.P. Mike . You will be missed.
