Milkman delivers

When we failed to turn the DP the first time in the top of the inning, was anyone else scared as hell that the next batter would homer? I just figured it would happen because it's the A's, and no other reason. AJP was home before Ozuna got to 1st. He was no matter what.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ May 23, 2006 -> 08:00 PM) It hasn't happened yet, but expect a flukely play at some point. Well, duh. It's the A's.

Well, so far we have: 1.) Little s***ty hits starting off rallies for the opposition 2.) A Sox pitcher choking 3.) An Eric Chavez homer 4.) An ump f***ing us in the ass Yeah, it's definitely an A's game.

The strike that Pods K'd on was in the same spot as the ball thrown by Vazquez the inning before, no?

Uribe's gotta be in danger of losing his starting spot. This is just pathetic.

Again...

That was one of those no-doubters. Gotta love em.

Most guys that are 6'8'' are gonna look really skinny.

That squirrel reminded me of Christmas Vacation. Some drunk guy even yelled "squirrrrrrreeeeellllllll" just like the guy from the movie.

Gotta agree with everyone. That game ended up being perfect. I cheered for Frank when he came up at 1st, then booed him mercilessly for that homer and the second one, ha. Froze my ass off, and stood the whole game right out on the concourse in right field. And I'm happy to say that I called the squeeze to my friends.

Today's game was just sadly predictable. When the foul pop out from Ramirez fell, I said that he would homer. When Uribe botched the extremely easy DP (and it was cake), I said we would blow the lead. It's just one of those days. Uribe has to get his s*** together, though. He's one of my favorite players on the team and even I'm fed up with his garbage.

Plus, there's no way Barrett saw the plate smack. He was on his back, and he said he didn't see it himself.

QUOTE(DABearSoX @ May 20, 2006 -> 09:32 PM) All pretty good press too.....except the end.....I would think they should be talking about plunking Barret...... Seriously though.....why the hell should AJ get hit......he didn't start that s*** Because he's AJ Pierzynski. Honestly, that's the best answer I can come up with.

The Sox just got more coverage from BBTN than I've ever seen them get on that show.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ May 20, 2006 -> 09:09 PM) Oh, Im not worried about AJ one bit. I just find it amusing that Cubs fans are conspiring now to annoy Sox players. No, I'm just saying these guys are pretty dumb to think they're gonna get some kind of response, let alone a response to allow them to sue. Do they really think they're original in doing this? Idiots...

Weathers getting wild. Hit Guillen and is 3-1 on Shelton.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ May 20, 2006 -> 09:01 PM) -northsidebaseball.com WTF? Is this whole thread supposed to be in green? Man, the pettiness is just all over Cub-dumb tonite Reading through that thread, it occurs to me that I'm sure AJ has already gone through some terrible heckling in the past. I doubt these guys are going to say anything he hasn't heard or anything that's bad enough to set AJ off.

I'd like to have some of those Detroit relievers. Think they'd trade with us?

Austin Kearns looks like a troll in his gameday picture.

I have a tough time blaming people who were born into it. I can't imagine it's easy to stop rooting for a team when you've done it since you were a child.

Reds have the heart of the order coming up.

Ha, that's kind of funny. I was watching on gameday and I checked Granderson's stats to see if he had any power because I don't know much about him. I saw he had 6 on the year, and thought, "he has decent power." One second later, homer.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ May 20, 2006 -> 07:30 PM) I was there, I once again hate those f***ing Blue Bears and hope they lose every game. Every old f*** that dies without seeing their Cubbies win it all deserves it. Barrett is a f***ing pussy and I hope somebody jumps his ass in response one of these days, great job by Gooch, great job by our Sox to beat the f*** out of a AAA team. Let's sweep these f***tards tomorrow and send them to South Florida. I'm still pissed at the Cubs and their fans, I can't decide which group is more pathetic. That's a little too harsh.

I want a horse to win the triple crown just so they stop talking about it. Every year they blow up the horse that wins the Kentucky Derby and make it out to be the greatest horse since Secretariat, and every year it's just a fluff job to get people to pay attention.

I'd take Lidge in our bullpen in a second. With him, I think our bullpen woes would be put to rest.
