QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 01:03 AM) Nice hanging pitch. I can't stand Tony Pena and his hanging sliders! Just remember, Ozzie decided to pitch him over Dotel. Yeah, I'm kinda not feeling Tony Pena right now.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:48 AM) Yea a very off night for Slayer. Looks like a little book is being developed on our guy -- fastballs way up.

QUOTE (son of a rude @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:48 AM) double penetration is better Hey, don't sleep on the Dirty Sanchez.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:43 AM) Is this a haiku of some kind? Game without pictures Sadness of a great nation Bartolo eat game

QUOTE (ChiSox420* @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:38 AM) pods picked off the on deck circle... I swear to you I was about to say this.

QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:37 AM) Colon and Lillibridge recreating the Dish that ran away with the spoon. Unbelievable stuff.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:35 AM) Maybe Linebrink isnt injured, he just popped into place whatever went wrong w/ him after 2005 we're about to have a great pitcher in linebrink now! I'm officially excited about NewLinebrink.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:34 AM) I bet Ozzie is off painting a naked portrait of Wise in the clubhouse.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:33 AM) that was one of the worst pitches i have ever seen Neither Hawk nor A.J. nor Linebrink could actually believe it was not hit 12 miles.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:30 AM) Dye and Konerko are off sponsoring a search party to find Bartolo Colon. Flashlights and potato chips.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:27 AM) Honestly, how pissed off do you think Dye and Konerko are on the bench? Raises an interesting philosophical question: can you be pissed off on the bench when you're sleeping in the clubhouse?

The fans chant Liney-O, Liney-O!

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:22 AM) I was eating grapes 3 hours ago and now i'm eating trail mix. This game really is going to kill me. Call when you start on the pork rinds.

QUOTE (GordoTheGreat @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:20 AM) Another nice play. Kudos to Jack. These wishes will be very meaningful for the Hannahan family.

LOL at AJ running 1/2 to the mound to try to get in the way of the throw. That was classic.

QUOTE (Markbilliards @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:19 AM) Linebrink might be ok if he doesn't have to deal with any guys with bats ..........

I was just thinking I had to go to bed soon and kinda wondering when it would all end. Having now seen Scott Linebrink warming up, things are coming into focus.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:09 AM) Its pavlovs dog concept for Colon, he thinks its the dinner bell Colon thinks a cell phone ringing is the dinner bell.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:07 AM) Who's hitting the cow bell? Pods. Trying to contribute.

Quite a few meatballs so far.

QUOTE (joeynach @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:39 PM) I can now remember Pods getting picked off of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd base in the last month. Thats freaking sad. And if anyone could get picked off of home, it's Pods.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:39 PM) Now there's another guy whose baseball I.Q. was bad. It was only fitting that they were traded for each other -- the all-stupid-clearance trade.

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:36 PM) As stupid as it was, Pods practically crawling back to third on his hands and knees all late made me laugh pretty hard. Agreed. He never really got back, instead finding himself hung up on his own shoulder.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:36 PM) I don't think I've ever seen a guy get picked off 3RD BASE before, and if I did.. must have been a long time ago. Pods might be the first player in a long time to get picked off 1B, 2B, and 3B in a season. He's had a very good year, but it sucks when your baseball I.Q. is the size of a raisin. And it's one of those little ones, too, kinda crushed at the bottom of the box.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:34 PM) Can I also add that Jeff Cox is absolutely brutal at his job? He needs to be communicating with Pods there. Coxie is still excited about dropping those 20 lbs., winning that big bet. It's very exciting.
