Maggs also had his RBI on a good pitch by Ashby, one of the few good pitches from him, and he drove it the other way on a line. Very nice...

And yes, Crede and Thomas just crushed those balls. Yall know I love when Frank does that. That was an inside pitch too, which supposedly troubles Frank. Well, that one sure didnt. I knew it was gone when he hit it...

Hey pal, I got it before you did. And mine was more complete. You left out Ashbys crappiness, a great third inning and Credes great D...

Sammy was suspended wasnt he? That little maggot appealed his suspension. I think he should have just been a man and taken his punishment for an intentional cheat. And speaking of White, we havent seen him in a while. Whered he go? He use to be one of JMs favorites...

No, not exactly. Theyre ten games over. When you first said that it made sense to me but once I looked at the standings I realized your mistake. Lets go thru this. Lets say two teams are tied at 35-35. Now for one team to be one game back, one of the teams would have to be 34-36 or 36-34. Two GB, 33-37 or 37-33. And so on. For each game back you just got to switch one a win to a loss or vice versa. For a half game you need to look at the standings. Look at me. Im up at 2 AM on a Sunday morning trying to explain GBs...

Some guys can handle guys once but on the second time around they dont do as well. Probably why he didnt succeed as a starter. But he is darn good. Glad we didnt have to see him tonite...

Aah, its all about quick decision making. Do you risk trying to get all the way over or go with the closer tight squeeze under? Choices, choices, choices. And the lowest you can get is 20. I did it. I clicked and just let go of the mouse. Tried it several times and thats as low as I got...

1520

The last four? I believe you are mistaken. Jon pitched in the fourth to last game and he sucked. But our last three games and the ones before Jon have all been really good...

I know man. I love Carlos, hes one of my favorite players on the team but I aint got his back when he plays like that. I only do that for Frank, and maybe Bartolo, Im really starting to love that guy!

Me too. Just happy to see promise in a victory. I feel rather unsatisfied to have a 4-3 win where we get four unearned runs. I like to earn the wins...

Hey that sounds like us! I dont think our offense sucks because everybodys hitting like crap, we have some decent hitters, but its all individual. We have too few innings like the third inning today. We need to do more of that, leadoff single, sac bunt, RBI single, steal second and another RBI single. Most of the guys here just swing for the fences (kinda like Bart did today, that was pretty wild). If we have more innings like the one I mentioned, we could be a pretty good team...

.255 average, OBP below .320. Yeah, he's not the problem. His ass needs to be traded. Look at the rest of the team!!! Ok. Frank, .282 BA and an OBP over .400. I actually like Carlos but tonite, you gotta admit, he sucked...

Well, I got to see this game on TV today and theres been no other game this year that Id have been more pleased to see live. Here are just my random thoughts, positive and negative (mostly positive), on todays game. -Colon pitched great. He struggled a bit in the last two innings but like wsf explained in another thread, that run shouldnt of scored. For the first seven innings he was unhittable. Two hits, both infield singles. He was hitting his spots too. Only threw like 20 balls in the entire game. I was hoping hed pick up the shutout but Im just happy he pitched great and got the W. He is a complete game machine. 5 CGs already. -Ashby sucked. The man couldnt hit his spots to save his life. On the WP (that wasnt a passed ball) about the fourth inning, Lo Duca set up low and outside and Ashby came in high and inside, which is why Id call it a WP. Thats only one example but I saw many other times he missed completely. Not to mention in the first three innings, he threw three balls to all the leadoff hitters. And when your starter goes three innings, thats pretty bad. -The third inning was awesome. Leadoff walk, then Bartolo helped himself with a great sacrifice, then DJ took one to right and stole second, Jose got the sac fly (it was a swing for the fence but it still worked), Frank walked and then Maggs took a great pitch (didnt see many good pitches from Ashby) the other way for the ribbie. Manufacturing runs. If we have more innings like that, we could be a darn good ballclub. -Im usually a big Carlos supporter but he sucked tonite. Struck out looking with men on and two out and then he dropped an easy fly ball. I dont think there was anything wrong when he ran in front of JB, Cora was goona get there anyways, but Carlos was still pretty bad. -Frank and Crede were great. Frank hit a bomb, that ball was just crushed. He cant hit the inside pitch, my BUTT! He hammered that ball. Then he had the two other base hits and a walk. He was just pounding the ball. Then Crede had a nice line drive opposite field homer which was pretty nice. Not to mention the two other hits. -Great defense, excusing Carlos. Crede made a couple of nice stops and then PK picked his crappy throws out of the dirt both times. Then Val made a nice diving stop to rob McWhiff of a hit. Thats all I can think of. I might have forgotten something, so feel free to add on to the list...

Hes coming up on 400 career jacks. Itll be nice if he gets there, that would be the first time such has happened in our history. But I prefer that he keeps killing the ball like recently, that would help the team much more. And keep him at first, he says it helps him and it obviously does...

1183. Ok, I guess its not that bad. I saw WUs and thought my score was awful...

Happy Birthday dudes!

Even tho I love my Marines one and the picture of Ventura getting the crap beat outta him (I never was a fan of his), the Office Space one is definitely the best...

Number of times Sox have scored ten runs: 2 Number of times Sox have scored ten earned runs: 0 Number of times Sox have been shutout: 3 Number of times Sox have scored one run: 9 Number of times Sox have scored two runs: 10 Number of times Sox have scored two runs or less: 22 Number of times Sox have scored more than five: 17 Number of times Sox have scored less than four: 43 Just for comparison, here are the same numbers as of June 6th last year. 10 Unknown 4 3 27 33 Thats pretty ugly. Even tho I love this teams pitching, the lack of offense is killing me (not to mention them)... 9 16

Well, his class acknowledged, I can see why he doesnt like SamME...

Excuses, excuses, geez, you sound like Sammy...

It hasnt covered gay/anal sex like the "HELP!!!!" thread. And for all I care, we can leave that part out...

Frank

Carlos

Yet its very entertaining. I cant stop playing...
