sin city sox fan

It seems like everytime we intentionally walk the bases loaded.....we end up walking in a run.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 10:18 AM) I hope Wise gets a standing O from fans next home stand. I would definitely give him a standing O his next plate appearance (if I was at the game) and I'll cheer for him as long as he's a White Sox. However, I'm not about to give him a free pass or make him a lifetime member of this organization because of one play. I still believe BA is the better option of the two for this team and increases our chances of winning the division more. However, if Wise is going to be the man, I'll cheer for him to do the best and truly hope he proves my opinion wrong.

QUOTE (bighurt574 @ Jul 24, 2009 -> 09:14 AM) Wise leading off, nice. How often do you see a guy make a great catch and then lead off the next inning... A lot more often than you see a guy with a sub .200 batting average leading off in a pivotal July game against the co-leader of the division.

Give him 500 autographed baseballs so he can have something to sell on ebay after his career is over (soon).

I kind of just want us to make quick outs here.....don't want MB to sit on the bench too long.

Since we have a 5 run lead, should we go to the bullpen now and give Mark's arm a rest?

I would personally give Jenks the night off.....not that I'm giving up on him as a closer, but he's thrown nearly 50 pitches in the last 2 games (plus two warm up sessions). Its time to give that arm a rest.

If Pods goes deep, game is tied

QUOTE (elmo9246 @ Jul 12, 2009 -> 01:28 PM) What happened to the bats? We've been hitting so well lately bad day for them to die. It ain't over til the fat lady eats a bowl of beans and farts Yankee Doodle out her behind.

Come on bullpen....hold the lead where its at until the bats wake up next inning.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 12, 2009 -> 01:20 PM) How hard is it to understand he's talking about the Sox playing at Minnesota? But we'll still have won 2 out of 3 in this series after todays game.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jul 12, 2009 -> 01:18 PM) give me whatever he's got or whatever he's smokin we look slow and lackidasikle out there Nothing that a 10 run inning in the top of the 6th won't cure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still think we come back and win this game. Time to put on the rally caps!!!!!

Lets up Mark can come up with a complete game tomorrow. Bobby has thrown a lot of pitches the last two days and I doubt he'll be able to produce that workload 3 days in a row.

Lets get a double play here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 11, 2009 -> 06:28 PM) Off-topic, but seems like Uribe is having a hard time dealing with his error last night http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=Atkz...p&type=lgns If it had been OCab, he would have been calling the press box saying it was a hit.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 11, 2009 -> 06:18 PM) Every time I look at these scores...4-0, 3-0, etc, I remember the games in which we were up by that score last season and then I remember how the Twins would come back and win... I'm just way too traumatized. Don't worry about it tonight....Gavin is in control! (just like Hawk was when he joined the mile high club with the flight attendant)

QUOTE (TitoMB345 @ Jul 11, 2009 -> 06:15 PM) Ugh, the "breaking news" was that one of the White Sox flight attendants (a pretty lady, according to Hawk) went into labor. No trade... Hmmmm....wonder if Hawk knocked her up

Did we get Halladay?????

I think Floyd might have watched Sanchez pitch last nite

Why is the start of this game delayed?

Danks is on fire now....he could go the distance! Hell Yes!

Now would be a good time for a DP
