Tim Pawlenty's campaign reportedly raised a very weak $4.2 million in the last quarter. Mittens, for example, is expected to come in at $15-$20. Ouch. The Huntsman campaign, which was late to the game getting started, took in $4.1 million, but $2 million of that was a personal loan from Huntsman.

A man who was on Death Row in Mississippi for accidentally killing a police officer has officially been released after taking a plea bargain for manslaughter...basically because of the efforts of a blogger (the author of the linked story).

Sox beat the Twins on my wedding day.

AJ, Pierre, Ramirez, Morel, Beckham!! Crain, Sergio, Bruney!!!

QUOTE (C_LEE45 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 05:08 PM) i thought we were done after A_RAM HR but they proved me wrong........great job bullpen Yet another comeback win today. This team is showing a ton of fight.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 05:07 PM) Just one more win to clinch this year's BP Cup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We did just clinch it.

8 pitches, 8 strikes, 1 save. Sergio killed them.

123, 456.

One up, one down.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 05:01 PM) Let's hope Sergio isnt' tired and his pitches flat. Or wild. We needed that run. I know he's the closer and all. And this is Wrigley so the pitcher can see. But Matt has to be ready to go. The hook has to come quick.

Damn. For once the pitcher gets the credit.

The Safety Squeeze...not a horrible call.

A successfull well timed stolen base!!!

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 04:55 PM) Don't like the bunt there, not with our team. Any other team not abysmal hitting with runners in scoring position, yes. Not the White Sox. I WANT HOME RUNS. This case...the bunt is actually the right move. 9th spot and Pierre coming up, 9th inning where 1 extra run would be a big help.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 04:54 PM) Isn't Sergio tired? Tough decision by Oz coming.. Should Jesse close today? I don't want 2 innings for Crain. But yes, this is a tough decision. Santos is warming.

Leadoff single for Rios

Nicely done JC. Past Pena, he can't hurt us in the 9th.

Unless Thornton is closing I want him facing Pena.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 04:40 PM) There's very little doubt that Barney won't lead off the 8th with a cheap single. instead 2 flyouts to right.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 04:37 PM) But can't the 'good Bruney' be as good as Crain? We better not have a righty face Pena. That will be not good. In his 2nd inning I don't know about the Good Bruney.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 1, 2011 -> 04:34 PM) Well Bruney shoved it up my butt. He looked quite good. Now do we pitch him another inning?? I have no idea on that one. Just win baby. Crain has to get the 8th, IMO. 3 righties up. Have Ohman ready to go if Pena comes up.
