I know the scouting report says be careful running on him, but it doesn't mean he should just assume nobody will ever run on him ever. At least he's making it up at the plate /green! Have to love Len Kasper not giving Jenks any credit for the K of Milton Bradley interesting to note that Soriano will STILL be patrolling LF and hitting leadoff for the cubs in 2014 making 18 million dollars a year.

nsbb.com looks like a sox game thread. Love taking the first game of the series, I hope Gavin shows up tomorrow.

BTW, I hope he doesnt figure it out, but Bradley has a ridiculous hitch in his swing where he bends his knees before he releases his hands.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 17, 2009 -> 03:56 PM) Great game to follow online! Speed, pitching, defense, contact. Nice game boys.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jun 17, 2009 -> 03:55 PM) Everybody sing along with me: "GO CUBS GO... GO CUBS GO! HEY CHICAGO WHAD'YA SAY - THE CUBS ARE GONNA SUCK TODAY" Everyone knows the original words are Choke Cubs Choke.

Thank you Danks.

Cubs fans better hope Soto injected some more HGH between innings. 97 mph for Bobby

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 17, 2009 -> 03:47 PM) You were so wrong! He singled not walked. he had second stolen if Alexei didnt swing at that pitch

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 17, 2009 -> 03:44 PM) Well, first full year. Right, but a year ago he was in Omaha playing for Georgia.

PODS will walk, take second and be singled home.

Oh, Big Jimmy was all over that.

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jun 17, 2009 -> 03:42 PM) I hate to knit-pick, but is Beckham ever going to make a diving stop and cleanly throw someone out? His game today defensively left a lot to be desired. First year in pro ball.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 17, 2009 -> 03:38 PM) Would love to see Beckham get his first multi-hit game here Squared it up a bit too well, but once again solid contact.

Ah, Getz just missed a little flare there.

BA moves paulie over, DLEE saves yet another infielder from an error.

underrated: Konerko's baserunning on that play.

DWISE

Keep dictating the pace of the game boys.

ozzie again pulls the right string.

Oh my what Bob, that was clearly a ball

JD done for the day to rest his leg. Wise in.

QUOTE (Cochise @ Jun 17, 2009 -> 03:12 PM) What is Johnny's career high for K's? 10

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 17, 2009 -> 03:11 PM) Well Danks has 98 pitches. I'd start him in the 8th but I'd have Thornton ready in case he starts to falter. Linebrink is probably more likely.

9 k's through 7 for John (who?) Danks

I wish they showed the other angle or pitchtrax for Danks' pitches more often because his fastball has that late break away from righties that you just cant see on TV.
