QUOTE (fathom @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:34 PM) He did, and by an inch. If that much

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:32 PM) Seemed like he might have been safe to me. Toby didn't apply the tag until Ichiro was by him and touching the plate. I didn't see it that way. I thought Toby got him.

QUOTE (Wanne @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:32 PM) Honestly...I think that's the first time I've ever seen that fake throw to 3rd spin to 1st move work... Jack McDowell did it regularly.

That was f***ing close at the plate.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:28 PM) Holy s***. LMAO

Holy s***!

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:22 PM) I understand that, however there are certain traditional counts in baseball ( 2-0, 2-1, 3-1, 3-2 ) where you expect a fastball. In those counts this year, I have seen a steady diet of changeups few to our 3-4-5. I understand that as well, but if they start looking for the junk, they'll get the heat.

Cairo was looking offspeed there. lol

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:18 PM) In a hitting count, or with 3-2 count our 3-4-5 crew have been fed a steady diet of changeups. You can't hit a fastball if you are looking offspeed. You may foul it off if you are looking heat and get offspeed.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:16 PM) Looked like he was. The pitch was low and out of the zone but Paulie can hit that. He got fooled. But if I'm Lowe I want no part of a 3-2 fastball to somebody like Konerko. When a pitcher throws 96, you have be looking for heat with 2 strikes.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:15 PM) He just missed that. s***. I thought he got it.

The bullpen has to step up and hold this lead.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:10 PM) Not really, I think first option would be Swisher in LF, and Anderson in CF. That would OUR first option.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:09 PM) Soxtalk holds their collective breath. You got that right.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ May 10, 2008 -> 10:03 PM) Well, my thinking was if your ace can't get through 6 innings against the Mariners lineup then you don't really deserve to win anyway. But his history of 6th inning disaster hasn't come up since 2006 so I really have no idea why you're acting like it's some common occurence. It was one of those nights where he just lost it. It happens. Ozzie made the right move. Sentence number 2, I agree.

That'll work.

Good move by Ozzie. Javy had lost it.

Damn

C'mon Javy ... Get him

I'd like to see a 6-4-3 here

Ibanez is having a tough day in LF.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 10, 2008 -> 09:53 PM) Oh Joe wtf were you doing there. At least Swisher got from 1st to 3rd though. I liked the play. Good agressive baserunning. The odds are the tag will be attempted at third with an accurate throw. The throw was offline a bit and that worked to the Mariners advantage.

QUOTE (Benchwarmerjim @ May 9, 2008 -> 11:01 PM) Delmon Young got a hit (!), Carlos Gomez walked (!!) Mike Lamb got a hit (!!!) to defeat the BoSox crazy ending That kinda stinks too.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 9, 2008 -> 10:35 PM) I assume you meant to say "condemn." Otherwise you just said the exact opposite of what I think you were trying to say, lol Exactly. Thank you.

Way to go .... Contreras Konerko Thome Linebrink Jenks
