QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 05:02 PM) Totally feels like we will lose this and soon. Prove me wrong It all changed after Garcia got hurt. Scott Downs will probably walk Morneau and he'll end up scoring. We've seen this twice already.

Tank got a hanger to hit, didn't get enough of it.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:50 PM) Yeah, not really understanding how he has been absolutely torched in his 3 cups o' coffee with STL. I'd have to guess control. It's the only plausible reason.

Cleto's got some nasty stuff.

He gawn!

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:36 PM) Damn that guy is good at third It's pretty rare for a rookie to win gold glove (since it's usually a hitting award lol), but he did it last year. That's how good he was.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:33 PM) So why didn't Ventura challenge? He hadn't nothing to lose there. Well there was maybe a 1% chance we would have won that challenge. The rule is that the fielder has to either have a clean transfer to the throwing hand or show the ball to the umpire. Garcia didn't do either. I mean, yeah, he technically caught the ball, but that's not good enough.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:30 PM) The pathetic thing is due to Viciedo's fielding in this inning, he'll end up getting more playing time. It was his plan all along.

Garcia's gotta stop trying head first dives. It's not that nobody should do them, it just seems like he doesn't know how to properly dive head first.

You might as well challenge that play. Doesn't hurt to.

He actually caught that ball. He only dropped it after he hurt himself.

They gotta teach him the Mags slide.

s***...

Nice play by Johnson. That definitely saved a run.

Johnson's fortunate that some of these Rockies hitters are chasing sliders a foot or two outside the zone.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:21 PM) gameday's frozen on Alexie getting a seven pitch walk to lead off the sixth, what the hell is actually going on? Sox went 1-2-3 in the top of the inning. Johnson gave up a hard hit liner to Morneau that Tank should have had. Tank then bobbled the ball, missed the cutoff man, and Morneau got to third. Arenado just grounded out to third. Morneau still at third and one out.

QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:19 PM) We make errors like Walter White makes meth At least they're pure errors.

Get Johnson out of there. Please tell me someone's warm in the bullpen.

Horrible play by tank. Then a horrible throw to follow. Ugh.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:14 PM) Let's see what he does on the mound, I could care less about the lineup. The leash will definitely be short. Or at least it should be...

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:14 PM) Alright. 1-2-3 inning and get yourself a QS Johnson The Q definitely stands for questionable in this case.

And he almost got a hit.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:12 PM) 93 pitches this is risky. With two outs and the top of the lineup coming up, it's not the worst thing.

QUOTE (BaconOnAStick @ Apr 9, 2014 -> 04:09 PM) Leave EJ in for one more? He is slightly feeling less shaky than our bullpen. I don't want to see him hit again though, and he's thrown around 90 pitches. Only if we don't get anyone on before him this inning. Even then, it's iffy.

We got real lucky there. Johnson was just about to walk Morneau.
