QUOTE (raBBit @ May 27, 2015 -> 03:41 PM) Since I went on a crusade against the Samardzija-hating meatballs and said he would be fine. 3 GS, 23IP, 19/5 SO/BB, 19H, 1.96 ERA, 1.04 WHIP. Getting out of the first while stranding the lead off double was huge. It set the tone for the pitching.

Christopher Kamka ‏@ckamka 3m3 minutes ago David Robertson now tied with Samardzija for team lead in #Wins with 4

Robertson now with a walk.

If Carroll pitches here, I am guessing you see him get sent down after this game, with another call up who can give the team innings getting called up for Baltimore.

Just so people realize that other teams mistakes, that was an infielder playing the OF in the 10th inning who played that into a triple.

Geesh.

Time for Robertson to redeem himself the hard way.

Gordon almost got them out of that inning.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 27, 2015 -> 02:11 PM) Alexei Ramirez is a "bigger bat"? When compared to Bonifacio?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 27, 2015 -> 02:04 PM) With Gillaspie seemingly hobbled/unable to play right now that does reduce our options. Not to mention you already are down one bigger bat in Garcia for Shuck. You add another singles type of bat in Bonifacio in all likelihood.

Samardjiza had one hell of a start. Really he threw a 7 inning shutout, and his defense gave up a run.

3-1, now 2 outs.

Oof. Anyone warming in the pen?

DJ now unloading about the defense. "I am getting sick of seeing it..."

QUOTE (BrianAnderson @ May 27, 2015 -> 01:30 PM) Not sure if baserunning is so bad. In reality in this game Shuck was safe on his SB, Abreu looked to be safe but the ump was in the way of the camera replay (bad baserunning that it was even a play) and Shuck trying extend that into a double is fine with me. Also was bang bang. I'd like to see a slow replay -- he might have even been safe there. 2nd base ump seems to hate us today. The Sox didn't have a challenge left because they lost on the Abreu pick off.

Shuck is 7-14 with 2RBI, a HBP, a SB, and 2 BB, over the last 4 starts standing in for Avi Garcia.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 27, 2015 -> 01:04 PM) The Swirsk never works with Stacey King, and is awesome. I don't know about his baseball knowledge, but he knows a lot about basketball and is a really good guy. I will say this much, he has been an intelligent as an announcer. Instead of trying to show off, or act like knows more then he actually knows, he sets up his color guy with lots of good questions based on the situation going on in the game at the time. Typically a PBP guy would kind of start the conversation, or the color guy would jump in when he had a chance. Stone doesn't say much unless set up. Chuck is doing a good job of drawing him out. While he is rough around the edges, he has done a good job of understanding his limitations and trying not to do too much.

Samardjiza has gone through the heart of the order twice with Reyes on base, stranding him both times.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 27, 2015 -> 12:35 PM) Now under review. Review confirmed he was out.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 27, 2015 -> 12:32 PM) Abreu picked off. Now under review.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ May 27, 2015 -> 12:33 PM) I know, but why would he hit him on purpose? To get to a RH, they thought.
