QUOTE(greg775 @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 09:03 PM) Are you really that mad at Crede or is this how these threads go every night? Crede is a god. He's made some s*** plays in some horrible spots this year. 2005 is the past now.

At least we got out of it tied. Go get another one and get Jose a win. Your a f***ing asshole Crede, ugh.

Crede boots it....tie game. Thatta boy Joe, great defense.

Infante tries to bunt the 1st pitch and misses by about a foot. 2nd pitch hits the very end of the bat, foul. 0-2 count. Now 1-2.....and fouled off. Jose looks back to 2nd, time. 1-2 pitch....in on the hands and fouled back softly. Another 1-2, JUST got a piece of it. Another 1-2, checks it up and a 2-2 count. This is killing me. GOT HIM with a nasty bender....I don't even know what that was, but it was a great pitch.

Base hit Polanco. 1st and 2nd 1 out for Infante. Jose if you've ever needed a ground ball, you need it right now.

Montero getting warm....hmmmm wtf?

QUOTE(Ndgt10 @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 08:48 PM) DJ: "Granderson homered into DEEP left center field..." No s*** DJ. Homers into shallow left center are a lot of fun. 3-1 to Granderson, not somebody you want to walk. And Count walks him. Ugh.

The exploding bat trick.....yikes that thing went all over the place. 1 out.

A.J. needs to just take a pitch next at bat. I don't care if it's tonight, tomorrow, the next day.....take a pitch or two. At any rate, 3-2 good guys heading to the 7th.

Scarface/MVP/JD gets ahead 3-0 for the 2nd time tonight....last time he went yard, and this time he walks.

Paulie swings at a breaking ball about 3 feet out of the zone, 2 outs. Come on Scarface/MVP/JD!

Bulls*** call at 3rd.....0-2 count. Thome fights back to square the count at 2. And now a full count, Verlander overthrew the last 2 pitches. Damn, now a hanger and Thome fouls it straight back. DEEP, BACK, HISTORY!!! THOME MONSTER!!!

Infante nearly went into left field with that baseball, but he gets Gooch.

Finally steals 2nd.....after having it stolen only to see the pitch fouled off 3 times. Phew.....Jose JUST gets there in time. Ok, Gooch/Thome/Konerko/Dye (I hope) coming up....time to rally.

He gone!! Another ace by Count.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 08:28 PM) Doesn't matter how many pitches he's thrown at this point in the game. Their bullpen is good enough where it's almost better to have Verlander still in the game. I'd rather see anybody in their pen not named Zumaya than I would Verlander.

At least we made him throw some pitches that inning....heading to the 6th 2-2.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 08:24 PM) Verlander has the quickest move by a righty in baseball. You can't get picked off in a 2-2 game in the bottom of the 5th by a righty, I don't give a f*** how fast his move is. You can see on the replay Rob wasn't even paying attention. And another quality AB, this time by Cintron....but he pops out to left.

Mack should be pulled for Anderson right now. That's a joke, put in BA, I don't care if he can't hit.

Quality AB by Rob there....was way overmatched by Verlander's stuff, but managed to draw the DLW. Let's make them pay!

Thatta boy Jose.....aces him on the inside edge with the smoke and gets outta the jam.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 08:14 PM) After watching this game, I'm confident in saying we're a much better hitting team against a pitcher with a strong fastball than we are a finesse pitcher. We're taking great swings tonight...and will probably look foolish vs Rogers tomorrow. Well true, but also remember that most finesse starters are lefties, and we struggle against ALL lefties. I mean, how many finesse righties have we seen this year other than Maddux, who we b****ed slapped.

Dye plays defense, so he wins. But they (Dye and Thome) should both be there, no doubt about it. Heck, PK could be there, Gooch maybe, Crede maybe....A.J. We're good in that everyday lineup.

Joe gets a hanger and not quite enough elevation, else we're up 3-2. But it was still a hard hit gapper, and the new LF makes a nice play. 2-2 heading to the 5th.

Yikes....those first 2 curves from Verlander were nasty.
