Sox are the only team in MLB whose ANNOUNCER is tight and feeling the pressure. Hawk needs to retire. SOON.

What's hilarious is if Rios WOULD have struck out earlier in his at bat it would've been a passed ball and the Sox WOULD have scored. Instead he fouled it off and then struck out. Unreal.

THat first inning was it. Weaver is just gonna pick it up and shut them down.

The Sox had a 3.0 game lead four days ago. It's now half that. After the team's atrocious play this week one can only assume they will continue their collapse in Anaheim. This is how it happens and it happens fast. The Tigers now have Scherzer back and are playing the pathetic Minnesota Peavys all weekend in Detroit. At the most important time of the season the Sox are playing their worst baseball and likely will pay for it. Soon.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Sep 20, 2012 -> 05:15 PM) Win tonight and you only have to take one over the weekend. The Sox never make it that easy.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Sep 18, 2012 -> 09:12 PM) We need to get this game over so Hawk can get back to his room for some alone time thinking about Frenchy and Cy Chen. Everybody ready for for the insane ninth-inning obligatory Royals late inning comeback?!!! Yeeeehahhh!!!

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 08:48 PM) Regardless of how you feel about which matchup is better, you have to agree it still takes away momentum from detroit. There is no game-to-game momentum in baseball, IMO.

The kid gets an extended rest and you improve your chances in the last full swing game against the Tigers??!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 05:21 PM) From email I just got: The team has also been awarded the Ebby Calvin LaLoosh Philanthrophy award for "Most Baserunners Allowed To Score Via a Free Base on Balls".

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 03:02 PM) I say in all seriousness, f*** the Bears. It is baseball season. I'll worry about you later. +1!!

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 13, 2012 -> 08:37 AM) The swing in this game is just monstrous. Win, and you split a series against a team that had beaten you 7 straight times, stay 2 games into first with ~20 games left, and leave town on a good note. Lose, and you are now tied for first, feeling like you can't beat your main rival. I will be there, front row UD. Please keep us dry. But I would sit there in the rain all game if it meant a win. Go Sox. This team has given us nothing but reason to expect the loss.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 05:53 PM) Verlander and Scherzer aren't going to hang breaking balls over the plate for Dayan or Gordon to hammer. That said, it will be interesting to see if Johnson and Hudson can actually produce any results. Biggest game of the season and the Sox trot out a pathetic Sunday lineup. The implications for this loss are enormous. Disgusting. Enjoy the strikeouts guys! Sox will be lucky to even threaten to win this game.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 03:39 PM) Beckham homers two nights in a row and gets benched, makes sense. W.T.F.?!

Scherzer is so gonna carve up this lineup. Let's hope they can beat Verlander tomorrow,....

QUOTE (kapzk @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 11:54 AM) Time for Peavy to deliver a big game performance. Peavy's infamous "bulldog" mentality where he struts and swears all over the mound is exactly why he can't win the big game. He is unable to harness his emotions.

Good to hear. Porn 'staches notwithstanding, The Division is yours for the taking boys. Go take it.

Yay Paulie. Ground out to the left side for us and drop your head. Yay.

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 09:55 PM) PATHETIC LOSS. The kind that starts a collapse. Calling it now Royals sweep. Bump.

Hawk so desperate. Not happening, old man.

RV in the post-game presser "It was one of those where you hope Addi can hold it....blah blah...."

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 09:59 PM) yes, rv messed up, i know. like with reed. but we just could not execute offensively most days. Fixed.

At least he doesn't start every hitter with a cent cut fastball... oh, wait.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Sep 7, 2012 -> 06:59 PM) Or they could sweep the lowly Royals while the Angels sweep the Tigers in California. Or something in between. It would be pretty cool for the Sox to go into the four game series with Detroit Monday with a four game lead. Uh, ...no.
