Dick Allen

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 12:04 PM) So I know it's a 3-0 count...but why exactly is Blum not bunting again? He must not be very good at it.

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:50 AM) We make a lot of running errors for a first place team. Carl delivers the RBI and then get's gunned down. What's the deal? Don't forget, he got injured on a baserunning blunder.

QUOTE(GBlum27 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:31 AM) Blum, Widger, Uribe= That would be sad in Kannapolis.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 10:52 AM) Yeah, stirring s*** up again... looking at it positively, it seems that the Reds might have told Griffey they put him on waivers and if he cleared they're going to try and move him. Still didn't sound 100% he would waive his rights Why I would love to put Griffey in the middle of the White Sox line up, there's probably a very small chance of that happening. KW does need to add a bat, if only in case of injury. If Everett gets hurt and his .258 bat can't be in the line up, it will be very difficult for this team to get more than 2 or 3 runs a game in the playoffs, and that won't get the job done in a 7 game series.

Looks like Freddy is going to have to be very sharp today.

Yankee fans are so depressed with the loss they are jumping from the upper deck.

QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 08:26 PM) Anyone else think Aaron could of thrown out Crosby at 3rd? He had a shot, but its not worth the chance because the other runner would probably get to second.

Williams is hitting .246 against both righties and lefties. He does hit for more power from the left side of the plate. This inning has been managed horribly.

It almost seems like Marte is afraid he is going to bean a LH batter.

95 MPH gas gets Posada

That last pitch was at least 6 inches outside. I don't know why Hawk and DJ are crying.

QUOTE(quickman @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 08:19 PM) well if he is not throwing his back is probably stiff. Gonna be like this the rest of the year. He's warming up in the bullpen.

QUOTE(GBlum27 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 08:16 PM) Matusi destroys lefties, but I bet Ozzie knew that too. He's hitting .338 against LHP with 7 of his 17 homers in less than half the at bats. You make a great point.

Joe did get one of his pop ups tonight to go 90 ft. Thank you very much for the walk.

QUOTE(winodj @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 08:08 PM) I was kinda scared of tripping in the third row of the club level. I was at a Bulls game once in the first row of the top and they were shooting t-shirts up. A woman came flying down the aisle trying to catch one and flew into the plexiglass. I thought for sure she was flying over.

QUOTE(tony72 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 08:05 PM) I have been to the cell several times in the upper deck and I am surprised it hasn't happened there and hasn't happened in baseball more often.. Most of the upper deck at USCF they would fall to the club level. Would still do a lot of damage.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 08:02 PM) I know you didn't mean anything cruel. Everyone just needs to take a step back and realize how lucky he was that he didn't die. If you've ever sat in the front row of an upper deck, it's scary as hell when you look down. Thankfully, we didn't have a horrible tragedy occur. The kid wasn't the only lucky one. Whoever he fell on would have been in bad shape too.

Do you think the kid that fell is going to call his friends and tell them to watch for him on Sportscenter?

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 07:55 PM) I hope so, why the hell was Bobby warming up? Maybe if he needed him later that inning. If Hermanson is healthy, he is pitching the ninth.

QUOTE(winodj @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 07:50 PM) Wonder if he's gonna get arrested. Note to self: don't lean over at my next game. I doubt it. They are probably making sure he's OK, and probably want to know how it happened, like if someone pushed him.

Sheffield takes wicked cuts

QUOTE(whitesoxmanager @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 07:49 PM) was that bartmann in NY? I don't know but he definitely looked like someone from Revenge of the Nerds.

QUOTE(winodj @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 07:47 PM) s***, some kid fell out the upper deck and on to the net. Do you think George is going to send him the bill for the damage to the screen?

The bullpen has to be on tonight. I knew The Count should not have entered in the eighth. If he gets a no decision, I'm going to be pissed.
