Dye smokes 1 to Blaylock but it's caught. 2 dead.

Everett pops to left, 1 on 1 out, PK at 1st after his single. Dye up.

Aaron K's swinging, inning. 2-0 Sox to the 4th.

Pods flies to CF, 1 dead.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 17, 2005 -> 04:15 PM) Charlotte made a pickup for a big right handed bat. Guy is like 6-5 and used to play football down south. I hear he's got a hell of an eye and can really rake. Any idea who this mystery acquisition might be? Who is it!?!?!?!

I wouldn't mess with anything all you Jerry Manuels! Stop tinkering! It's been working, leave it!

QUOTE(Dam8610 @ May 17, 2005 -> 12:59 AM) Go Jon! Don't let Judy see the light of day! Let's just hope he doesn't implode like the other starting pitchers have when I've posted on a game thread. So if we lose we can ban you right? But seriously....can we?

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 15, 2005 -> 07:58 PM) He meant Nishioka I don't even know anymore. Japanese names are confusing!

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 15, 2005 -> 07:52 PM) I'll take it. I, as well.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 15, 2005 -> 07:55 PM) I was confused by that post as well. Shimizu IS a pitcher. I was wondering why he said:

That would be Bobby Valentine...

Ther frosties are so damn small. No wonder they're free. They melt before the lasy can hand it to you!

QUOTE(chi-guy2 @ May 15, 2005 -> 07:29 PM) haha bears falling apart i love this as a packers fan True Packers fan........f***ing cheeseheads.

We split the series with BAL and gained .5 games on the Twinkies!

QUOTE(TheBigHurt @ May 15, 2005 -> 05:27 PM) Not a WHOLE lot happened, but that which did was hilarious. I cannot believe Scotty was caught in a pickle and swerved the first baseman(who dropped the damn ball) and got back to first. LMAO I've never laughed that hard at anything I've seen in baseball(including Ventura's fight with Nolan Ryan)! It was just so hilarious. Idiots. LMAO. And then we had the same thing happen on an easy play, the first baseman drops the ball and Iguchi easily makes it to first base. I'm not sure if SI still amkes "Baseball Bloopers" videos, but if so that shoudl definitely be on there. And if tehy don't make them anymore, I'll start a damn petition to have them continue making them. Hell they might have made only the one for all I know(which I own), but either way, they need to be made. Are you serious? How old are you? Have you ever watched a baseball game before?

QUOTE(qwerty @ May 15, 2005 -> 06:22 PM) Shimizu is raw as f*** at this point and has enough power for maybe 15 homeruns and not a really great eye. He clearly has the potential being the marines number one pick but way too early to tell. Shimizu is a pitcher...

Adkins up, Cotts down.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 15, 2005 -> 11:15 AM) I hate to say it on Freddy, but maybe it could be a reoccurance of the arm / shoulder injury that he had late last season that affected him. I'll try to see what I can find on Shimizu's stuff. The Forums at Japanese Baseball are usually a good place to start. I was thinking the same thing. He could be going through a period of dead-arm kinda like what happend to E-Lo last year. I am not giving up on him, just waiting for him to get his s*** together.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 15, 2005 -> 11:12 AM) It happens. What if it happened to Mark Buerhle instead? Would the reaction be as great? Just some food for thought. Also see my post on the Freddy Garcia thread that Nuke started. I made a couple of points about Garcia's struggles, and what he needs to improve on. Ya, I read those. But his velocity is way down. Anyways, what does Shimizu throw?

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 15, 2005 -> 11:10 AM) That is some good news. Hopefully we may be able to get him for a discount, like we did for Iguchi. But really for this to happen, we'll have to move one of our starters, most likely Contreras. And then B-Mac is going to have to wait for another season, unless the Sox decide to move him into long relief like Neal Cotts to give him experience at the major league level. Or we send Cott's to a concentration camp and let Shiizu long-relieve?

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 15, 2005 -> 11:08 AM) Here's a picture of Shimizu's delivery; Kinda similar to Shigatoshi hasegawa from Seattle.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 15, 2005 -> 11:06 AM) You wouldn't have been saying that about Freddy before his previous 2 outings. Very true.....but he's blown 2 straight 3-run leads...

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 15, 2005 -> 11:06 AM) Rand McNally slowed my post down. Hahahaha
