Phew.

Ok Jake, we need you tomorrow.

That was a rough 3rd strike call

This is what happens when you don't sac bunt

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 10:01 PM) And they tried a hit-and-run And look where it got them.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 10:00 PM) You're right. Let's bunt and take the bat out of Alexei's hands when we have a guy on first who was explicitly brought to this team to steal bases. Whatever. Bolt, I hate bunting too. I'm just pointing out how people will complain no matter what course of action we take.

Hmm, they're doing the exact same thing.

They get the leadoff man on every damn inning it seems.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:58 PM) I'd prefer to at least try a run-and-hit with Juan on-base. Send Juan and give Alexei the option of swinging or taking. There's no need to take the bat out of anyone's hands. Oh I give up already...

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:56 PM) when is Jenks coming back? Tomorrow

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:56 PM) PK went from in the zone to brutal awfully quick. He seems like he is really mentally lazy

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:54 PM) Pierre should be able to steal 2nd against a righty relief pitcher. With Rios and Konerko struggling, it was setting up for an easier escape for Wood. Where were you in the first inning? Then it was "why are we being so aggressive with our mashers coming up?" This is the perfect illustration of second guessing and hindsight is 20/20.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:53 PM) I'd feel better if the first out was on Juan attempting to steal. We already tried that and everyone here complained about us being too aggressive.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:51 PM) would have much rather a hit and run or stolen base attempt And yet we have been getting gunned down by 5 feet all night...

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:51 PM) I love giving up the first out. Ozzieball, 3 outs and counting tonight. Not quite that simple. It was a productive out.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:45 PM) Great job by all! I miss the NL where you knew they were going to be outs. This AL s*** sucks. You really could use a new mantra.

QUOTE (Ranger @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 08:34 PM) Funny, but you would not have said that if it was your team. You are correct.

Good move to have Omar in there

He'll get Aviles to pop out

I'll take my chances here with Putzy

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 08:34 PM) Thornton needs to set his balls on my forehead....my control is not too good right now.

Come on Matt...get it to Putz...

That took some stones

If we're going to run, we need to be sliding headfirst.

Nice game, Gordo.
