Boone getting squeezed by this dipsh** ump.

masset and thornton both look great so far this year. definitely pitching well enough to win games the only blame anyone should be giving anyone is to our pathetic offense.

haven't seen this before, crede not being able to lay off curveballs in the dirt? say it ain't so. edit: they were sliders, but breaking pitches none the less.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:35 PM) I'd believe it. Masset hits 94 when he's got his stuff, which he did. And Thornton has hit 98 before, albeit rarely. perhaps, though i haven't seen either of them hit those speeds all year until tonight i watch the gun readings religiously every game

twinkies gun had masset throwing 94mph out of the stretch, and has thornton throwing 97mph seems a little juiced

Nice redeemer Swish, for your GIDP in the last at-bat. Tie game

Toby Hall destroyed that ball. Too bad Delmon Young is from god damn KENYA.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 30, 2008 -> 01:16 PM) I have had enough of Brian Anderson bring up Owens good riddance BA! lol, BA is 1-2 today.

what's aggravating is our offense is built to support a poor pitching staff, not a great one like we currently have

Terrible play by Crede. Wake the f*** up, dude. You need to be aware of where the gd ball is at all times. Thank god Toby was blocking the plate.

3-0 to Mauer with Morneau on deck. Gonna get ugly, folks!

3-2 twins. Not like I didn't see this coming or anything.

gotta love artificial surfaces. ball just bounced over crede like a goddamn basketball. the walk scores.

check this out, Blackburns pitch selection to Jim, JD, Carlos, and Crede: Thome: Slider Changeup Curveball Slider JD: Slider Changeup Slider Slider CQ: Curveball Slider Curveball Crede: Slider Fastball Slider Fastball He threw two fastballs in 15 pitches, and the reasoning behind the two fastballs probably has a lot to do with the fact he just gave up a dinger.

btw, the pitch CQ homered off of = curveball, not a fastball. CQ making adjustments, nobody else is.

CARLOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol, our hitters are completely baffled. and yet, it's because they don't realize what's happening here yet it's really easy to see he isn't throwing hardly any fastballs, it's all sliders and changeups and curveballs. brings me to my post yesterday about how to successfully OWN our lineup, don't throw many fastballs. change speeds and throw breaking pitches.

we already lost this game. how do i know? because masset couldn't shut out the twins.

i'll take a weak single by Morneau with nobody on, any day of the week let's get the fish and score some runs. edit: HBP, forget that idea. Masset is a little hyped up right now, he needs to calm the f*** down.

That DEX commercial that was just on, the kid that was in the commercial is also in one of my favorite DCFC videos: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaKp-6izq0Q interesting and off-topic lol

more of the same, guys. same offensive (there is duality amongst this words meaning) production that we saw yesterday, so far. the only difference is that we scored our 1 run earlier

Nick Swisher. Rally Killer. 2 down.

Nice Oppo-hitting, Toby. Hall has been hitting pretty well in his limited chances this year

Twins swinging at a lot of first pitches, we're gonna see a more patient team coming up in the next few innings. I hope Nick throws more strikes to take advantage of the situation, if that's what happens

nice hit brian, shortest swing i've seen him take all year.
