G&T

QUOTE(SoxHawk1980 @ Aug 22, 2006 -> 07:36 PM) Most fans just react emotionally whenver a close call doesn't go for their team. That's pretty much what is happening here. The ump has a small strike zone for both pitchers. The problem is that Buehrle can't do well when there is a small strike zone, no matter how consistent it is. Rogers has had at least 2 low strikes called for him that MB couldn't get. That's the problem, yes it's been a small zone, but it's been smaller for Buerhle.

Well that didn't take long. But it had to be done.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Aug 22, 2006 -> 07:30 PM) The inning could have been much, much worse. I thought the same thing last night...and then things got much much worse. If MB is going to have this zone all night, he has no shot. Even the Detroit guys are talking about it.

Get the rookie for christs sake

Bad umpiring and bad pitching.

Can PK bat for them now?

Can PK bat for them right here?

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 08:34 PM) Is Brandon McCarthy still a reliever on this team? Why isn't he warming up yet? Is he secretly be stretched out or what? Guillen hates BMac.

Another easy inning.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 08:25 PM) ....and who was the answer? None of three guys in your sig were traded. f*** you Konerko. Why doesn't Dye get a shot in the #4 spot yet? Dye hitting 3rd last year sparked the team it seemed like. But we wouldn't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 08:20 PM) Yep. This offense needs to wake the f*** up, because our starters just dont have it this year...... On that note, something is wrong with Thome, there just has to be, and I PK doesn't seem to care about hitting for power anymore. That leaves Dye to do everything with no one on base. Honestly, something looks wrong with Thome and Konerko.

Get the pen up...it's always 2 out damage.

Well thats that

hmmm, might want to try not hitting everyone.

QUOTE(Friend of Nordhagen @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 08:08 PM) Pods is the slowest fast guy in baseball. He's the worst fast guy in baseball.

ugh

What will this be a 7 pitch inning? Thank God for Mack.

My fear is that Jose will only pitch well until the Sox retake the lead. I've seen enough of that lately.

QUOTE(SoxnGiants @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 07:53 PM) Geez, we work them into hitters counts and can't capitalize. We need to improve our execution, and soon. This discussion has been going on for months. I really don't think there is going to be any changes.

QUOTE(Grindersrule @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 07:51 PM) Does anybody have a suggestion as to why the score streaming audio would not be working? If you're looking for the game, they aren't allowed to broadcast it. If it's another thing you're looking for I have not clue.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 07:47 PM) I think it might be time to platoon him with Mack Can 2 lefties platoon?

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 07:39 PM) Nice pitch by Jose. 2 runs is not too bad. He's gotta hold them down for a while now. After the way the inning started, 2 runs seems like a gift.

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 10:48 AM) Which if I am not mistaken, is the name of the game, is it not? To be friendly to those that support you versus being a jag who doesn't have the time of day to even respond to a compliment of "nice shot"? I don't care what Phil is, but I've never had a bad fan experience with him and had several with Woods. Except that you said you don't like Jordan's fakeness, specifically concerning his family. If you don't like him because of personal experience then that's fine, I just don't get the fakeness arguement.

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 10:12 AM) As for Phil, I'm sure he's not happy after a DB, but at least he isn't a dick to the fans, and knows that there is more to life than spending hours upon hours away from his family practicing his swing. His ability is what it is and if he wins, he wins, and if he doesn't, he doesn't. IMO, he's a way better human being than Tiger ever will be. Supposedly people around golf regard Phil as the most fake guy out there. That the whole family is an act to make people like him, and that he is very self centered. I know this has nothing to with Woods, but this has been said about him many times, not just on the radio, but also in Golf magazines...which I then hear all about from my Dad.

When Sox closers come in during non-save situations they give up runs...
