ironic that pitching is what killed our chances in this game, lol granted the offense was terrible but we gave up 6 f***ing runs lmao

Swisher sighting

QUOTE (Sox It To Em @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 05:25 PM) Griffey swings at ball four again. Hilarious. wouldn't matter if he walked, alexei would have to face Balfour if he got on

vazquez's implosion in game 1 set the tone for the rays in this series, after that first win, they played with an advantage in the series from that point on, which allowed their offense to play loose and be a lot more free-swinging than it allows a team that's trailing and has to play more cautious i hope he's gone next year

Getting rid of Dye would piss me the f*** off

It's not over guys, we'll get to this guy

haha, gas can back in full force

dotel is hilarious, 3-0. lol

take away two stupid pitches from gavin to Upton, and this game is 3-2 right now

QUOTE (joejoedairy @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:53 PM) I guess maddon realized sonnanstine had been doin it with smoke and mirrors too bad nobody on our team figured that out

our offense only does well against pitchers who pitch like they're scared of our hitters when a pitcher comes at us with the mindset that our offense isn't THAT good, we get dominated

simply put, gavin floyd and clayton richard are young guys who are afraid of pitching to contact, a common problem with young kids, that problem escalates in games with more meaning just my opinion

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:32 PM) I like Richard,the Rays are a better team,they outlasted the Red Sox,they have a lot of ways they can beat you,its their year...our team has to improve for next year but overall I m optmistic going forward...we can't beat too many teams with our one dimensional offense. good post

I feel bad for Gavin, for someone that early in his career to feel that he probably is the main cause for the loss (not the only cause, of course. you need to score runs) Danks, Floyd, and Buehrle are a good core though for next year, we just need to figure out what we're going to do with 4 and 5

the guys in the dugout look defeated, thome looked sad

it's hard isn't it evan, when javy isn't pitching, huh?

lol when your season hangs on the balance of clayton richard (granted, he's a better option than floyd right now), you can't help but laugh

Clayton with the best defensive decision of his MLB career

QUOTE (SoxFan101 @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:21 PM) Im not sure how Griffey and Dye struck out that inning. Dye on a 87 mph fastball down the middle and Griffey at a ball in dirt before it reached home. Easy, they were guessing and guessed wrong

I bet we lead the league in 3-2 swing-and-misses on ball 4, except swisher. Swisher actually gets hittable pitches on 3-2 and takes them

griff hit one against the twins or two?

omg a solo shot lol..

Dye K's on 87mph GAS. This game was over in the pre-game.
