Damn. Morneau, ground rule double, its 4-3 Twins.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:12 PM) Jusrt able to log into MLB Game Day. It seems from the looks of things that our offense still hasn't produced the big hit when needed. Nice job by Thornton again in relief though. True, though in today's case (unlike last night) the Sox are hitting the ball hard.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:11 PM) I thought he's been terrible on the slow hit ball. Not only does his weak arm make the plays more difficult, but he's had a few plays where he double pumped or flat out missed the ball. I've noticed the double pumps, more on balls in the SS/3B hole though.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:10 PM) IMO that has been a huge problem for him this year...other stuff is about right...i wouldnt say hes horrible at SS, but he certainly hasnt been GG calibur... Not GG no, like I said, he's not as good as Juan either. But to say he's TERRIBLE is just way off, IMO.

Logan got reamed on a pitch call there. 3-1 now, should be 2-2.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:08 PM) wouldnt have mattered...im sure crede was up at the corner....brooks robinson doesnt get him out there...it was just a perfect bunt Yeah, those were both very good bunts.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:07 PM) Absolutely not. He must have naked pictures of official scorers, as he could easily have 5 or 6 errors this season. He's has some costly misplays as well. Name me one thing he does on D that's above average? He has very good outside range into the outfield, he's got good balance on tough throws, he's OK with normal ball handling, he can turn a double play well. His arm is a bit weak, and his range horizontally is less than stellar. He handles short-hit balls well though.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:06 PM) I dont' think you act like a tough guy with a bum ankle...you can either support yourself or not. A guy who just got called up from AAA, he's pretty motivated to perform. No matter, he made a good pitch, bunt got down, now Logan coming in.

Successful bunt, 1 out. And Ehren was able to throw to first - underhand.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:05 PM) And played HORRIBLE defense. Oh now come on. He's not as good as Juan, but he's above average.

Wass staying in. Hopefully he isn't just trying to be a tough guy.

Oh man, did he hurt himself? Turned his ankle on the turf.

Ehren, why bother throwing that?

OK Ehren. Let's keep it here.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:02 PM) The OCab trade looks terrible as of now. He's been a no show. Have to disagree. Besides, JG has been awful.

Damn.

Swish walks. This is good. OC has hit the ball hard twice today, I think he's due.

LOL, they just showed Ozzie doing some sort of chant on Swisher's bat, then Swisher talking sweetly to it.

Come on Swisher, another RBI opp.

Wow, fly out to right, and BA almost got doubled off. He thought it was falling.

Its so frustrating because the Sox are hitting Blackburn hard, but have only 3 runs.

Hall with a chance to be a hero. No RBI yet this season. Now would be a good time.

Nice bunt by Uribe, BA to 2nd.

BA basehit. My God, Young didn't catch it on the fly!

There we go, K, and it works this time. Going to 7.
