f*** them. Whether it was intentional or not, its time the opposition quits taking liberties with White Sox hitters. The past several years have seen way more Sox get hit than opponents. Obviously, Quentin and Pierre account for a good portion of it, but if Jake wants to plunk someone, he should do it. If the opposing pitcher knows he or one of his teammates is going to pay when he hits someone even it its just an accident, advantage White Sox. Maybe it seems like a who has a bigger cock type of excercise, but Paulie has to stop getting hit in the face, and the easiest way to stop it is to hit some opponents.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ May 18, 2012 -> 04:57 PM) Again, you can't. You're standing in the spot where the ball will land. To adjust the angle enough to get the ball out of the sun, you'd have to run at least 10 feet to the left or right, as it's coming down. Unfortunately, the sun wins sometimes. Yes you can. You can turn a little bit and it will change your sight line slightly and you won't be looking directly into the sun but still see the ball. In fact, Rios did exactly that earlier in the game. He had plenty of time to do it. If it were more of a line drive, I may give a guy paid as much as he's paid a break, but there are plenty of high school RF who would have caught that ball.

If nothing is broken, I'd be shocked if Paulie wasn't in the line up tomorrow as long as there is no vision trouble.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 18, 2012 -> 04:45 PM) Robin just said with a straight face there was no purpose to the pitch at LeHair. Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.... If he says otherwise there will be a suspension

Was it the Tribune that said it would take LaHair over Konerko? I thought they sold the team.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 18, 2012 -> 02:40 PM) Ahahahaha. I love Tanks arm. Tank is probably never going to be much of a fielder, but he can throw.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 18, 2012 -> 02:35 PM) Len & Bob are saying that Peavy has been yelling at Samardja Good for the Jakemeister, but this does happen everytime someone gets hit. I remember years ago the TV picking up Tim Hudson calling Buerhle a b**** for hitting someone with an 85 MPH heater on the butt.

Farmio must be conflicted.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 18, 2012 -> 02:24 PM) Samarjia now talking s*** from the dugout That's fine. You want him wound up. He's either going to be unhittable the rest of the day or meat.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 18, 2012 -> 02:23 PM) Apparently he was yelling at Humber. I knew I hated him for a good reason. ND isn't a good reason?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 18, 2012 -> 02:21 PM) Humber just threw at Lehair and go the warning At least part of the mission is accomplished. The Sox don't have to worry about being pitched inside the rest of the game.

If anything, you show Smarjdkdj that pitching inside and hitting White Sox whether it was on purpose or not, can be harmful to himself or his teammates. It will get him off the inside edge.

Throw over to first and hit him that way.

I think only the Yankees have a better all time interleague record than the Sox

QUOTE (Jake @ May 18, 2012 -> 01:55 PM) Say that to the Philadelphia 76ers They were still playing the Bulls.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 18, 2012 -> 01:52 PM) It's not what you hit, it's when you hit it! I love Hawk, but the one thing I'm still trying to figure out, "It's not who you play, but when you play them". It doesn't make sense.

QUOTE (Jake @ May 18, 2012 -> 01:52 PM) lol, it's so stupid It really is. The more you think about it, the dumber it is. Things evolve. Its time the NL got with the program.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 18, 2012 -> 01:49 PM) Cheapest tickets on StubHub today were $19 The majority of those were resales, so there are going to be empty seats. People aren't willing to pay the ridiculous face value prices they are putting on these tickets.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 18, 2012 -> 01:47 PM) I saw tickets on facebook for half of face. I'm going Sunday for less than half, but I don't think many people want to put in the work. Phillies/Cubs tickets on stubhub were going for less than $10 for pretty decent seats. Face value on the Cubs website right now is ridiculous. I got club box for $39. On their website they are $136,

Paying $100+ to see a baseball game in a dump is nuts.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 18, 2012 -> 01:43 PM) Lots of empty seats for a Cubs/Sox game in perfect weather Don't tell caulfield

I don't mind Brenly, but Kermit the Frog bugs me.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 18, 2012 -> 01:30 PM) That was belt high fastball, right down the middle, and no movement. I take it he has never heard of Paul Konerko before? He was sound asleep when they used to mention he was the best fastball hitter on the team.

Take a nap Smarjalsdkfrdk

QUOTE (Jake @ May 18, 2012 -> 01:19 PM) As a human being, I support this statement. Ditto.
