QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 29, 2006 -> 08:28 PM) FWIW, Bonds has 2 homers tonight. Wow. Giants and the Marlins are making a run at the WC. I think the Marlins can actually win that thing.

Crede makes every play look so routine.

He made Delmon look bad in that ab.

He just needs to stop hanging pitches.

Tampa's pitching must be terrible. They are making Pods have major league ABs...he looks like a REAL leadoff man.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Aug 29, 2006 -> 08:13 PM) Freddy's ERA over 5 now. YAY!

Meanwhile KC has 2 runners on in the 5th.

That swing would look really good in a White Sox uni next year.

These have been some really good ABs so far today. 6 walks and every hitter has worked a count or had a good swing at the ball. Great approach thus far today. QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 29, 2006 -> 07:58 PM) Great to see us capitalize on the botched DP. We did a great job of staying back and not chasing his offspeed stuff. He's actually shut down some solid teams in the last month or so. He always is tough on the Red Sox.

Rain needs to hold off a little longer.

Wasn't Orvella going to be their closer at the beginning of the year? Now he is in long relief/mop-up duty?

Hawk should have been a radio announcer...he loves to hear himself talk. QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 29, 2006 -> 07:34 PM) I saw Kevin Witt play in the minors this year, and he looked mighty good. He almost hit 40 homers this year. Where did he play in the minors that you saw him?

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 29, 2006 -> 07:31 PM) Garcia can't let Tampa get back into the game this inning. He always does...so don't be suprised when it happens.

But if we do jump out to a big lead..hopefully it wont be like that KC series, where we disappear for the rest of the set.

JD is having one of the greatest seasons in White Sox history...truly amazing. He has been doing it without much notice either, until recently.

19-13....but I don't know if 95 will be enough. Just doesn't seem like it will be.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 24, 2006 -> 02:20 PM) Sounds good to me.....Let's just hope Javy, Jose and Buehrle show up this weekend....Biggest series of the year IMO. It definitely is the most important series of the season. Unfortunately we have to face Radke and Santana again.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 24, 2006 -> 02:09 PM) WTF??? CASEY THROWN OUT AT 1ST BY OZUNA IN LF!!! WHAT A PLAY, WHAT WAS CASEY DOING?!?! He thought Crede caught it and stopped running. Then realized it was in left field and started running, but he is too slow to get there in time. I have seen people get thrown out getting a hit to RF with guys like Vlad out there but never left.

JD is good at baseball.

QUOTE(soxunited @ Aug 24, 2006 -> 01:25 PM) i just got to see it on mlb.tv, sweet play by BA. Think Mack would have had it? Right. He cant even hold BA's jock on that play.

That was a ridiculous catch by BA. Gold glove catch.

Didn't think they had a chance in hell at turning that DP.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 24, 2006 -> 01:06 PM) The one thing that is a shame is if we make the playoffs, Jermaine Dye SHOULD win MVP bar none, but he won't. I think Dye cares more about making the playoffs then winning the MVP.

Woo!! Dye taking charge with a homer...1-0

Anyone hear any news on Thome's injury? I know he will at least be out a couple of days, but lets hope it isn't more than a couple of weeks. Please post if you hear of any news pertaining to Thome's status.
