QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 07:45 PM) Which unfortunately is typical when he faces a potential playoff team. He had given up 4 runs in 18 innings against them coming in. A 2 ERA against them. pretty good.

Thats what happens. We hit it hard, its right at people. They hit it medium hard and it finds a hole.

This would suck, if we hadn't just won 7 in a row. But we just won 7 in a row.

Thats the way to hold them with out giving up any runs. Good 1 and 2/3 Viz

QUOTE(Tadahito15 @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 08:29 PM) Thing is, we havent been patient at all this game. A lot of first/second pitch outs. We have 6 walks. That's like a weeks worth for this team.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 08:25 PM) Yet you congratulate Garcia for s***ting the bed, hanging nearly every pitch in an inning, and costing us a hard fought lead? Ozzie did bring in Cotts....so how could it have been the wrong choice? Not my fault Neal couldn't get the job done. Garcia had a QS. THat's getting the job done as a starter. Neals job is to hold the team down for one inning. He couldn't do it. He walked the leadoff hitter and blew it. PS. Oakland's defense blows.

Thanks Neal. Leadoff walks suck.

Neal looks good again.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 08:09 PM) Hmph...Boston is using Foulke in a save situation tonight. Uh. Boston's losing 3-0

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 08:00 PM) Widger with no chance. Good call on that one.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 07:56 PM) Which means Ozzie is doing the opposite. Stairs is hitting the ball MUCH better than Sweeney, who is really struggling. Walking a guy like that to get to Stairs would've been really dumb IMHO. Well. Not dumb. Just not what I think would be a good move.

QUOTE(Sox Hustler @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 07:36 PM) I don't think I've seen pitchers give up their leads as much as I have this year with the sox... :headshake LOL. Thats the funniest thing I've heard all year.

Another quality start! That'll work Freddy!

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 07:29 PM) LOL! That is a name I barely recall as well. I know he went back to the Red Sox after his stint with the White Sox, but does he even play ball anymore? In the mets organization.

pablo too. booooooooooo

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 07:25 PM) Give it up...no one is responding to it. give what up? Why would any one respond to my negativity?

pods is the biggest sucker of them all.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 07:13 PM) Trying the reverse jinx....or just mocking a lot of the posters on here? hmm. I wonder.

suck suck suck, suck suck suck.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 07:07 PM) These are the worst pitchers to have trouble against. Someone tell me how exactly our hitters are overwhelmed by Howell? What has he shown that you can understand his dominance thus far? In my view, his ERA is perfectly reflective of his weak arsenal. Their approach tonight is TERRIBLE. I'd be embarrassed to pay money to watch this crapfest. I Personally I think we suck.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 06:57 PM) Everett's ball was routine A foot to the right and its a hit and a run.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 06:55 PM) Pablo and Widger were the only guys who really hit the ball hard from what i could tell. Iguchi smoked that ball up the middle. Woulda been a base hit easy. Howell made a good play. Just like Teahen on Carl's ball.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 06:52 PM) Are you talking about for the game? I just got back in the 2nd inning. If you're talking about that inning, Pods grounder was as routine as it gets. The other two were hit solid though. If Pods ball is in any hole, its a base hit. He hit it well. It was just right at sweeney.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 06:50 PM) 3 hits? All of them hit it hard. Right at fielders. There just isn't anything you can do about that.

Unreal. That coulda been 3 hits right there. Not much you can do about that.
