Swung at ball four, but no choice with Rios batting behind him.

That ends a string of 15/16 retired. Dunn now with 3 walks, a single and homer. Great start.

Where is Fukudome? Lillibridge hasn't looked good tonight at the plate.

Well, Rios finally made a play that Quentin and/or Viciedo probably wouldn't have, which could have ended up a double or triple had it gotten beyond him.

Nice use of Ohman appropriately. Let's see Fukudome PH for Lilli or Rios, please.

This is scary. Maybe he only faces Moreland.

Well, that broke the strikeout run by Ogando against us. Hahahaha. That was almost a laughable offensive display there.

Well, that broke the strikeout run by Ogando against us.

Now, where the heck are we going to get some offense against Holland and/or Ogando? Lillibridge seems like he's going to be completely overmatched, same with Morel and Beckham. Maybe Flowers can poke a homer out. That's our best chance.

Ohman to come in to start the 7th? Yikes. Well, definitely better than Stewart, and who knows what we have with Nathan Jones. Looks like Ozzie will get his first win w/ the Marlins, up 8-3 in the 9th.

Peavy has retired 10 of the last 11, only hit was Murphy's. At least there's something to be positive about.

They're going to have to start paying White Sox fans to start attending any game Alex Rios is starting. This is probably not the way to beat the Rangers. We just don't have enough threats in our line-up, compared to theirs.

Pop out to RF or groundout coming.

That ball was tattoed more than the arms of D-Back Ryan Reynolds or NBAer Chris Andersen.

Hamilton had two high hangers and just got under 'em. Harrelson would have been going crazy if he was the Rangers' announcer. Beltre just missing two homers tonight, tough luck.

Greg was pointing that out all last year, about the size of Lillbridge's bat, lol. Well, bullpen....BE READY to warm up at a moment's notice.

Only when Brian Anderson was partying with Kinsler at Univ of ARIZ and Kinsler was hungover could the Sox possibly get him out, especially Danks. Peavy claimed tonight would be "no finesse, that he was going to come right at the Rangers and let it air out." Hmm.....

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 7, 2012 -> 07:20 PM) I'd rather face Holland instead of getting to their bullpen Ogando's the really scary guy down there. Adams is hittable. The hit parade continues. That line-up is like the White Sox offenses from 2000-2004/2006, when healthy. Or 2008, when we had Quentin looking like the leading MVP candidate. Flowers and Peavy getting crossed up with the signs. Lucky Tyler knocked that ball down or it would have been a disaster.

How many oppo field homers did Morel hit last year? A couple? No more than 3, I'd bet, probably at USCF in the August/September heat.

I was about to say we were getting Holland's pitch count up, then we went down 1-2-3 and Morel swung at the first pitch. At least he actually threatened the wall.

QUOTE (jeffro2525 @ Apr 7, 2012 -> 07:10 PM) You just can't beat teams like Texas on the road when you: Get runners picked off. Play singles into triples. Balk and give free bases... Sox have done all of these things in less than 3 innings. *facepalm* Don't forget, misplay/bobble bunts. Have Alex Rios as your 5 hitter. It's kind of a miracle it's tied, only due to the presence of Konerko in the line-up.

Good god, Peavy's getting pounded. Luckily they can't keep most of them fair.

Konerko giveth, Peavy taketh away. Let's just get to the bullpen with a tie game, please?

Time to go to Vegas and bet whatever the odds that we'll give up at least two more runs this inning.
