Make that 6 walks. This dude wasn't going to have a good start regardless of the passed ball and the Crede play.

He used a telegraph to send messages.

Haeger served up 5 walks. He was going to get lit up sooner or later.

Farmer is no great shakes but he's much better than Singleton, IMO. Singleton can't even spit out a single play when he is doing the PBP. I can at least understand what is going on in the game when Farmer is doing the PBP.

Don't forget about the complete lack of talent.

I actually used to like Hawk... back when he didn't blow his load on every somewhat deep fly ball.

And as bad as Hawk is, I can still stomach him before ever daring to listen to the soothing sounds of Singleton.

Uribe's swing. :puke

He's worthless. I'm actually thinking of donating to HeaveTheHawk.com.

Well, it's only a bad inning because we are pitching a guy who normally wouldn't even be on the team. I'm sure the game would be different if Contreras was pitching.

I hope to hell that no one said he was getting squeezed. Half of his pitches seemed to be knuckleballs that he lost grip of and flew way high and outside.

Note to the Sox: 1.) Don't bring up a knuckleballer at the Cell. 2.) Don't bring up a knuckleballer with horrible walk rates in the minors. 3.) Don't bring up a knuckleballer when you don't have a catcher that can catch a knuckleball.

Sad to think that Tim Redding could have been a better option.

Just?

Towel full of shaving cream, I would assume.

That was some of the best control he's had all season.

Taz just made a nice play.

Either NUKE or SSI had Uribe pegged - they call him the Tazmanian Devil.

Uribe is just worthless at the plate. He seems to enjoy corkscrewing himself into the ground on every swing.

True, that was pathetic.

Exactly. Great AB by Crede but Dessens was stupid to stop throwing sliders off the plate. Crede was fishing for them.

There's our 'ol Cliffy.

Take it easy, Hawk.

Watching Uribe corkscrew himself into the ground sure is fun.
