Ptatc the invitation to make a reservation is the lyrics from Magical Mystery Tour and while at an undisclosed destination fits in with the the rhythm of the words it is not part of the song . ?

If you still think the Sox are anti analytical then perhaps your thinking is just as antiquated as you think the Sox are.

Bama don't you have a smart TV where you can get the MLB app ? It has highlights and interviews after every game.

The beauty of baseball being a team game means even while others slump others step up. A pitcher doesn't even have to be in a slump. Just one inning where he cant locate and you might be down 4-0. Any time you lose one can point to players who underperformed . Being the best team in the AL means we have already overcome obstacles to get where we are now. Mazara has been bad , EE not what he has been ,Cishek not good, Moncada injured ,sick, Bummer getting hurt and Robert's long slump. In a short series an 0 'for from your best players doesnt even constitute a slump yet can have devastating effects. I'm not telling you anything you dont know just as you telling us Robert currently sucking hurts our chances. We just must trust that they pick each other up. Trust the depth of the team talent and the ability to rise to the occasion. Failure is more likely for teams with worse records than the Sox and a short Series might even out the odds a bit but it's the same for every team and I'd rather be able to talk about our playoff chances like this more than every 12 years. You don't need a thesis to know people get excited about young highly ranked prospects who performed at an MVP pace . No worries here , just will enjoy what's next.

My son loved TMNTs . He's 33 now. I just like how their Italian names fit in with the Anderson spaghetti dinner theme of the evening.

No I don't, wasn't looking to insult you just poking fun at your avatar.

Maybe you'd like Robert more if his name was Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello or Michaelangelo.

Man I am full with the spaghetti and meatballs , linguini, lasagna, garlic bread and spumoni with 2 dingers from Timmy Anderino , and 1 each from, Omar Mazari , Tony Abreu and Yas Grandalfini.

Abreu lasagna time !

Grandal first the garlic bread and spumoni !

Linguini !

Mr. Anderson. Spaghetti for all !!

It's miraculous !!!

It's even more important now than ever before withe the slumps of Robert and Moncada to get the extra bat like McCann into the lineup. Moncada and Robert will play no matter what and Engel could be in RF . Putting Encarnacion on the sidelines is just losing a RH bat and replacing him with another RH . We probably see Mazara the rest of the season in hopes he somehow, some way rediscovers what made him good against RH pitching. His disaster of a season and Moncada's also has really screwed up our lineup against RH's. That's the main concern so I'd rather see who is best against righties not lefties.

After the 1st hitter that went to the 3-2 count he was pumping some gas into the strike zone.

Do that and move Robert to 9.

I'm pretty sure some concerts for bands are being conducted like drive in movies. So something like that but Sox provide a huge screen to watch and you listen to the radio broadcast in your car if setting up audio is too big a deal. I know if I own a drive in movie theater I'd be looking for extra revenue setting it up for all Bears games and as many White Sox and Cubs playoff games as possible. Just do advance ticket sales until sold out.

I was hoping Stiever would impress in his 2nd start but he was lit up like a Christmas tree. Very impressive debut for Crochet. Have to see more for sure to deem him playoff ready.

BING BANG BONG !!!

And you totally forgot about Stiever.

Weird stuff has been happening to Colome lately with 2 outs. Jimenez had that misplay of the liner over his head when everyone got pissed when Dyson wasn't out there. Then McCann missed the popup behind the plate. Then Colome had the comebacker pop out of his glove. Luckily none of that stuff came back to bite him.

DO IT WITH A BING ! BANG ! BONG !

I specifically have been thinking that about Robert. I don't think he isn't getting his front foot down from his leg kick fast enough and that makes him late on a lot of fastballs. I don't have the video knowledge to compare him to himself earlier when he was hitting and now to see if theres any difference. Plenty of players have a leg kick and seem to get the front foot down just as the pitcher releases the ball.

Wow I'm dumbfounded that none of you guys understood why Tim looked at some pitches. The game within the game . Dyson on 1st. Madrigal didnt advance Dyson so 1 out. Tim being a base stealer himself was going to take some pitches to give Dyson a chance to steal which would keep them out of the double play and put a runner in scoring position. Finally on the 4th take by Tim, Dyson stole 2nd. Tim then grounded out to the right side to advance Dyson to 3rd. Grandal walked and now you have Abreu up and he gets the infield hit to tie the game. That was everybody doing what they do best to scavenge a run. Dyson stealing, Tim playing the team game taking pitches allowing him to steal , then hitting behind the runner to advance him. Grandal walking and Abreu bringing Dyson home. Just a beautiful pure baseball sequence. Then Eloy does his thing to drive in the winning run. Just gorgeous grinding.

Did you just mix 2 Tom Petty songs together ?
