hey Dick Allen if you are out there reading this...we may disagree on the long run cost/benefit of striking out vs. not striking out....but hey ill gladly put aside my differneces and root hard against a K here in this situation

dontrelle really got helped out by the DP ball...that coulda, and maybe shoulda been alot worse....keep at these guys here jermaine

that may have been the least exciting call ive ever heard by brennaman..he sounded like hawk when an opposing team scores a run

francis beltran? the former HOF closing prospect for the cubs? heh

maybe cobb? he was a tiger...thats my guess

6 straight walks in 6 PA for swisher (better balta? lol)

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:19 PM) Floyd's given us a chance to win....you can't ask for more from him. I'll take 5 innings, 3 runs every game. yep if we get this from gavin all year we'll be in good shape..... oh god the way swisher fell to the ground there reminded me of dye in the playoffs back when he was in oakland...that coulda been bad

QUOTE(G&T @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:17 PM) So how has Floyd pitched so far anyway? about as well as i hope he could...which is to say...he has given us a chance to win this game so far

nice play swisher...i thought that was trouble off the bat one thing i like about swisher....he plays pretty shallow...hopefully he will be able to continue to go back like that and allow himself to play shallow

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:11 PM) toby. you've been such an AWESOME addition. hes really let his body get out of hand...he was always bigger, but when he was with TB at least he was somewhat in shape.... if he was serious about getting healthy and getting back to being productive this offseason he needed to lose about 15 -20 pounds and it looks like he put on weight instead

maybe hall will just not swing...nevermind

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:08 PM) I don't see a reason for bunting being down 3-0 with Willis as wild as he is right now. i think hes taking the whole way...just drawin the D in a bit

QUOTE(Elgin Slim @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:07 PM) That wasn't a bad pitch though, as a matter of fact it was a good pitch, fastball up and in. Gavin just got beat on it. yeah, but on a 2-0 pitch you gotta know where a hitter looks for the ball...and just before he hit that fox showed a graphic that showed inge hits .444 on the pitch up and in

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:03 PM) gavin. that'll teach you to allow two out walks. i thought he got really pinched in that AB against jones...especially on the last pitch, god it seems like im commenting on the umps all the time

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:03 PM) Why do we keep throwing him fastballs? especially in....hes a sub .200 hitter on the out third according to fox's stats

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:03 PM) 3-0 Tigers. Inge with a bomb. 2-0...sat on the fastball in and got it....fox just showed that was inge's wheelhouse

damn i hate brandon inge

QUOTE(lostfan @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:01 PM) What did he do? I can't see. renteria was running on the pitch...pudge lined out to quentin...and quentin gunned renteria out at 1b from LF

good thing renteria dogged it...he may have been safe anyways

wow nice throw quentin....7-3 double play hahah dont see that alot

nice job jermaine....hes been bad in the field, but that was a nice play to hold renteria to a single

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 04:56 PM) Yuck....good at bat though by Quentin. I always wondered why the runner on 2nd doesn't let the ball hit him on such a routine double play ball. great point, that basically assures only 1 out

gavin has to keep it close, we will get to willis or that bullpen sooner or later

even though he didnt square it up...i love to see that rip on the 2-0 fastball from carlos damnit thought that was fair

dontrelle nearing 60 pitches...no double plays here carlos
