Here is the end of the no hitter.

Indians lose. Look for the positive through this crap. Have the magic # go down at least once per day.

The funny thing is im not upset. Normally I'd be throwing things. I guess thats what a big lead does. FOR REAL, REAL YO!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 07:13 PM) Everybody sucks, including us right now. Yep. The Rnagers have lost like 8 straight, and they are about to shut out the injians. they suck. we suck. lots of suckage.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 07:07 PM) Nice to see you come around. Will you now admit that this division is not a guarantee? No. I won't. WE'll still win the division easily because the Indians suck, suck suck too. And the twins are only good against us. Everybody sucks.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 07:01 PM) If we're going to lose, I really want the Sox to get no-hit. I don't think that makes me a bad fan. Rather, hopefully it would be a slap in our faces, and wake some people the f*** up. As long as it's not a Cubs pitcher, I don't mind it. They won't think anything like that. THey'll say, "oh well, we got no hit by an awesome hitter. There was nothing we could do." We suck right now. SUCK SUCK SUCK.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 06:56 PM) I put the over/under for no hit innings for Santana at 7 I'm gonna say 5.2

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 06:47 PM) You're telling me not to shoot you? I don't think our offense is even in the same area code as other teams in baseball. The fact we're 10 games over two very solid teams in the Indians and Twins totally baffles me. It's my greatest surprise ever in sports. Our offense sucks hardcore right now, but they are stil middle of the league, and only 20 or so from fourth place with a couple games played less than everyone. That's why we have the best record in the AL. Awesome pitching with mediocre offense. The same thing the Twins have done the past 3 years.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 06:44 PM) Me too. I love the Sox...but I'm absolutely disgusted by their energy level lately, as well as the attitude of the front office. BTW, PK slipped up in the pregame tonight and said how the Sox had lost 5 in a row. I'm curious. And I'm not saying this to you, but more in general. How exactly do you determine energy? By the players running around all over the place like a chicken with its head cut off? By scoring a lot of runs? By winning games. To me, what I think of when I see people say we aren't playing energy tells me we just aren't hitting well. When you dont get a hit, you are going to go back to the dugout. Not walk around hi fiving guys. I think the guys are playing hard, they are just sucking really badly.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 06:35 PM) At least we made Santana throw 26 pitches in the first. Could've been 30, but no -- our best hitter is bunting. I have more confidence in having us score against Santana rather than their bullpen.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 06:34 PM) He was leaving a lot of pitches over the plate, but of course, all our guys were trying to hit homers. Also, Iguchi had a lot of good swings vs Santana last time he faced him.....sure great we're trying to bunt the runner over. Unless you're pitching Roger Clemens on the road, there's no reason to play for one run in the first inning. We've scored no runs in the last 10 innings. We need to play for 1 run at a time. We're not going to get very many.

Rowand's really sucked of late.

Teeny, tiny zone tonight.

Oh well. I can definately go to bed now. Night everyone. Hopefully Mark can throw a shutout tomorrow night.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 16, 2005 -> 10:58 PM) And the Twins have a ton of momentum, while our offense continues to absolutely struggle. I actually admire your optimism, but this Sox ship is sinking very, very slowly. The holes in the boat have opened up, and we need to do something to plug the holes. Oh yah. We're definately sucking right now. There isn't any question about that. Our offense is awful. Still, we're gonna win the division. The Twins are still like 13 games out.

Oh well. We're still 11 games up and our first 4 game losing streak comes in mid August.

If we don't score next inning the Minnesota bullpen would have pitched a shutout since Timo's hit.

THIS BLOWS. Terrible.

Well we can't blame it on Jon. We gotta blame it on the offense and Hermy.

Ugh. Cmon Jon. We need you.

LOL. "UMP YOU ARE KILLING ME" on a ball way inside.

Ugh. I'm now yawning. This blows.
