Sweeney pops it up!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY VIZ!!! Doing a happy dance...

QUOTE(knightni @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 07:09 PM) Ozzie with the quick trigger. I just don't understand... I wasn't watching the pitches, but it sure didn't sound like Neal had "it" tonight...long fly ball for a sac fly, and then a base hit...about to face Sweeney...hell it can't hurt to play the percentages against this monster.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 07:08 PM) I seriously hope that our big 3 pitching gets their heads out of their f***ing asses before we hit the end of this year. Imagine this s*** in a playoff series. If we score 9 runs in a game in a playoff series, I'll probably be in a good mood.

Damnit damnit damnit damnit damnit damnit Sweeney up as the tying run. Anyone want to give me odds on how far this ball will travel? Viz coming in.

Oh sweet Jesus, do not let Sweeney be the tying run...

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 07:06 PM) Probably about as much as many of us love our manager. He's still the AL Manager of the Year.

Man...Rooney raised his voice on that one and scared the Bejeezus out of me.

Damnation. Well, at least Oakland won't be winning that Wild Card.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 07:03 PM) Nine runs and this will go down to the wire, provided KC doesn't take the lead here, which is possible. Get your head out, white sox, cleve is gonna win so we must. Isn't that game still tied?

QUOTE(greg775 @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 07:02 PM) He's one of our top pitchers. It's his fault, not Ozzie's for godsakes. There was no reason for Freddy to be pitching this inning. There was even less of a reason to leave him out there after the leadoff triple+error.

Oh thank you Ozzie for finally coming out. If Neal only faces 1 hitter I'm going to cover my floor in vomit.

Can someone give me a reason why Garcia is still in there? Is Ozzie trying to see how high his ERA can go?

I believe Cotts is up in the bullpen.

Was there just an inside-the-park home run during a station break on MLB Radio?

First time we've been retired in order tonight.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 06:54 PM) Iguchi's on one pitch mode tonight. Oh well, at least he produced. When he hits a 3 run homer on 1 of those first-pitch swings...I will never complain about first pitch swings.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 06:51 PM) He doesn't have it tonite. I'd let him try to get through the botttom of the order next inning, then turn it over to the bp. 91 pitches already for Freddy. He's done his work for the night. Give it to the bullpen.

With such a high percentage of the airline industry in bankruptcy right now, it should be plainly obvious that there is something seriously wrong structurally with the business models being run by these companies. This is an overcrowded marketplace being hammered by a number of issues (fuel prices, terrorism), and right now it looks like there just isn't space for the airlines which aren't being very well run. Pretty soon, a couple of these companies are going to need to disappear.

He's out of it. Yay. Qualifies for the win. Hit the showers Freddy.

2nd walk this inning, first one already came around to score. Viz is warm and ready in our pen.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 06:13 PM) I was just pointing out that the left will scream and yell when God is brought up but its ok for them to teach kids to hate America and fill em up with multiculturalist drivel instead of teaching them math, science and reading. But of course, we can't actually teach students science either, because Genesis tells me so. (not necessarily aimed at Nuke, since I don't know how Nuke fits into the whole ID joke/issue)

QUOTE(KipWellsFan @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 06:34 PM) Just wondering that if along with the pledge of allegiance do K-12 students have to stand for the anthem in the States? We just always had our anthem and dat was dat. I think most places in the states do not make use of the national anthem...none of the schools I was in ever did.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 06:38 PM) Swisher 2 webgems in a row!!! Man, it almost sounds like you guys are cheering harder for the A's than for us!

Well, according to Rooney/Farmer, that one was a gift since he should have been out on that throw to first.

Crede find the fountains!
