QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 11:03 PM) Bingo! Figured thats what you were getting at, wasn't completely sure though (hence the ? )

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 11:00 PM) Chances of winning tonight? are remote?

QUOTE(rudylaw @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 10:45 PM) Why ph Pods for BA? Why not for Pablo? And if you are going to ph for the righty lefty match up, why not ph AJ for Widge? You don't ever pinch hit with a catcher (unless you have 3 on the roster), because then, if something happens to him you won't have anyone else to put behind the plate.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 10:45 PM) It was here against Oakland. Bah, you are right. My mistake

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 10:44 PM) The Sox got swept last year in the final series of the first half. That was in Oakland though

QUOTE(Contreras @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 10:42 PM) Konerko was drafted as a catcher... Why the green? Thats true..

QUOTE(Sox It To Em @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 10:40 PM) Pods PHing for Pablo. For BA, not Pablo.

QUOTE(Sox It To Em @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 10:31 PM) Uh-oh, tensions running high in the game thread... Bingo

QUOTE(soxunited @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 09:59 PM) You are familiar with the Sox closer, right? Bobby Jenks? What about him?

But... Pablo is hitting .400+! He can't actually be a bench player!

Anderson is up this inning. He'll tie it with a solo shot.

QUOTE(jenksd @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 08:52 PM) anyone see ozzie run out to first after thome hit that single? Thats not Ozzie, its his son, and he's getting Thome's ankle brace.

I notice way too many Boston fans.

QUOTE(worldchamps2k5 @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 04:40 PM) Also, with Thome hitting the Sox's 7th granny last night and Crede having 3 already this season, I was wondering what the MLB records were for both team and individuals for a season. http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=52095

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 02:52 PM) I wonder what it said when the flub fans threw trash all over the field. I was too wrapped up at that time telling all the kids I saw at Wrigley "see that, that's how NOT to act at a baseball game" On-field delay (or delay on field, can't remember, but I was watching gameday for that game)

QUOTE(daa84 @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 04:14 PM) red sox fans are the worst sports fans in the country in any sport....they think they knwo everything, and they think the entire world revolves around the bosox....i cant stand em I would take Red Sox fans over Yankee fans any day of the week.

QUOTE(Dam8610 @ Jul 7, 2006 -> 01:26 PM) Crede has an outside chance at the single player record for slams in a season IIRC. He has 3 as of now, and I'm pretty sure the record by a single player in a season is 6, but I can't remember who did it. Pronk currently has 4 IIRC, so Crede might have to beat whatever mark he puts up too.

Happy birthday BMac!

Excellent job everyone

I just turned the game on before this inning, and wow, good stuff

Great job everyone

QUOTE(Reddy @ Jul 6, 2006 -> 09:10 AM) does him leading now mean he wont win? i always wonder whether or not mlb still has a hand in it... maybe thats just my paranoia If Pods won over Derek "Everybody loves me" Jeter last year, then I don't think MLB has a hand in it.

From pitches 1-15, Bobby has 31.1 IP with a 0.86 ERA and 1.05 WHIP From pitches 16-30, Bobby has 6.1 IP with a 8.53 ERA and 1.42 WHIP So yea, it would seem that way. Although these are pitches, not innings pitched, which makes it a bit different, but still shows the same point. However, doesn't it make sense that if he's throwing more pitches, his ERA will be higher because he will have let more runners on, which is why his pitch count is higher in the first place? Or am I talking gibberish?

Don't let up guys, this is great news though

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jul 5, 2006 -> 08:11 PM) Tiger has a MUCH better chance of hitting one pitch than Guillen does of hitting par. If your wording is right, then it would be more than just hitting a pitch, it would be recording a hit, meaning getting past fielders.
