G&T

Ramirez should go yard.

Swisher should go yard.

QUOTE (daa84 @ May 16, 2008 -> 11:52 PM) lol i thought the exact same thing...we have a better pen though...i think I think it's great that the Sox can finally try all the strategies that work so well against them to beat another team. Specifically, throw hanging breaking balls and poorly located fastballs and watch the opposition pop out.

It's amazing because it's like the Sox are playing themselves.

QUOTE (Wanne @ May 16, 2008 -> 01:14 PM) Hawk I really don't mind...when he's by himself or Stoney's in the booth with him, he's fine...but BJ on the otherhand...he's like a little friggin parrot over there and tries to be "Hawk Jr" and it's more embarrassing than anything. The Sox seriously need to separate those 2. I LOVE MLB Extra Innings and get to have the other team's announcers a great deal of the time. I kinda like BJ

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 16, 2008 -> 10:25 AM) The really lucky thing was they missed the King, Bedard, Saunders and Lincecum. Finish it strong. I'd like them to start Thome at first and rest Konerko for the series. Gross. Rest PK, but Thome cannot play first anymore. If they win the first 2 games, then fine I guess, but otherwise Swisher should be at first with Anderson in center. I don't care for Anderson hitting, but in that park, he is valuable.

Wite has the fire and the passion burning right now. Keep those logs a flaming! What the hell did I just write?

QUOTE (YASNY @ May 16, 2008 -> 07:55 AM) A west coast road trip at that. Helps that we didn't play in Oakland. Just sayin'. Although I will say this is about as good a position as the Sox could have expected. This is a great chance to be 6-4 or 7-3 on this trip. Can't ask for anything more.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 16, 2008 -> 01:28 AM) This pitching staff is simply incredible. They need to learn to pitch over defensive mistakes. They seem to rattle easily. But it seems like every pitcher has gotten into a groove every game and starts mowing guys down. Except MB, but he will come around.

JIM THOME!? A.J.! OTHERS!

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 16, 2008 -> 12:13 AM) This pitching is awesome. I need a beer. I've had a few. Tasty.

OVA! No home runs!?

I think Hawk just had a "damnit" on that one

2 out.

QUOTE (zenryan @ May 16, 2008 -> 12:07 AM) did Hawk yell STRETCH on PK's fly out? No but we did get a "just missed it" and "Daggummit." So it wasn't a total waste. 1 out.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ May 16, 2008 -> 12:03 AM) I believe this would be the first time all year if they hold on. Right. So the stats are still against us. How sad is that? I guess that's gotta turn around sometime.

...but they haven't hit a HR yet, so are the Sox allowed to win?

Unreal. Thome with a base hit. This team sucks.

Unreal. This team has no chance close and late.

CQ gets the job done and almost goes yard.

AJ! Speedster!

QUOTE (rangercal @ May 15, 2008 -> 11:52 PM) both plays are eqaully to blame imo Yeah but no runs had to score off the pop up. Crede caused that 1 run to score.

Oh, and we might want to hit a home run because we won't win if we don't.

Nice inning. Meat of the order coming up. Let's do it.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 15, 2008 -> 11:40 PM) I can't believe Darren Oliver just made our hitters look so feeble. Ramirez better try to steal against this pitcher. Dear KW...please find a 2nd baseman if Uribe has to go on the DL. The Soriano/Sheffield player with a .300 OPS won't do. When DJ just compared him to Sheffield in his ability to FOUL A PITCH INTO THE STANDS I almost threw up. Yahoo, DJ. He foul a pitch real good.
