watching the replay on espn of the sox/cubs game last night, i didnt realize what the puff piece was about that gammons was talking about right before being interrupted by CQ's HR it was about josh hamilton, am i the only one who sees the irony in that lol CQ: *Hits a blast* "STFU about Hamilton."

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 08:54 PM) It's so funny that you say this. I mean, for years -- seriously, years -- I've watched that piece of garbage Aramis Ramirez make stacks of money because pitchers don't pitch him on the inner half. I seriously wonder what these advance scouts do at the park. he wasn't 0-for tonight because we pitched him inside, it was more because Mark kept Aramis honest by not pitching to the same part of the plate (outside) with the same velocity (fastball) like we did at wrigley. mark was going in/out/in/in/out/out while changing speeds on his pitches, and not allowing aramis to focus on one area of the plate, that's how you get any hitter out. mark was absolutely dominant tonight

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 08:17 PM) LOL, suddenly all our hitters are all like..."OMG, he throws with his right arm, I know what to do aboot that!" LOL i laughed out loud when i read this post

sit down bobby

alexei should be leading in gold glove consideration at 2B this year

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 07:45 PM) Buehrle is gonna face Fuku.

meatball right over the plate for cedeno, 3-1 sox

the at-bat of the game right here, 2 on, cubs losing 3-0, blanco at the dish

crede: 6-63 against LHP this year .095 BA. yeah.

anyone else notice mark's body language tonight in his delivery to home plate? he looks so f***ing confident! total change from the beginning of this year

BA! turn it on, blondie

the big pitch in that swisher AB right there, was the third pitch fastball that was low that swish took for a ball, i knew he was getting on base after that

ok swish/lexi/ba, shorten up the gd swings and stop trying to go deep lets string some hits together for OC & AJ

pretend it's still 0-0 mark

QUOTE (JFields27 @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 07:03 PM) CQ Homer. Ill just call it since hes a studd boom. 1-0 sox

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 06:55 PM) Sexy blond communism at the plate. marshall just blacklisted him

alexei's arm reacting faster than his brain there, but we still got the DP in time

3-1 count to d.lee, hmm

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 06:47 PM) If our hitters could actually shorten their swing on 2 strikes, and make contact it would be great. The amazing whitesox popup attack. the only hitters in our lineup that actually do that are OC, Dye (to an extent, sometimes he keeps the long swing), Toby, and CQ

gonna see a lot of high strikes here to Alexei, that's my prediction, they exposed his swing yesterday with those high fastballs edit: first pitch swinging, i kinda wish Alexei took more pitches, he just seems overconfident that he can crush anything pitched to him, and that will catch up to him sooner rather than later

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 06:38 PM) Come on Joe, got get one in and one over. Do your job here, shorten up the swing and knock it. crede always has only about 1 and a half hands on the bat, his bottom hand is hanging off the handle, he has one of the longest swings in our lineup, he needs to seriously consider shortening it up a bit if he wants his average to go up and with that said, crede couldn't handle the high heater, K

that 1-2 hook was strike 3, we got a huge break there with the base hit after that, i knew marshall was coming with heat on the outside corner, jim was prepared for it

Jim's pitch recognition ability against marshall seems nonexistant

mark needs to calm down a bit blanco is gonna crush that pitch if he throws it there again where's the curve mark edit: there it is, way outside though
