There you go Adam Dunn. Come on Rios. Don't pop one up on the infield.

Come on Omar. RUN!

Here comes Dunn's opportunity to do something positive.

I would love for Dunn to run into one and end this game.

Todd Coffey's coming in.

Santos has closer's syndrome. He absolutely blows in non-save situations.

Ah s***.

Teahen's home run was worth .477 WPA. Talk about a swing.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 10:12 PM) According to Hawk there's already been a walk off at US Cellular this year. Well dammit let's have another. Alexei hit one against Oakland. That was the start of an almost-all-nighter I pulled to work on a lab.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 10:10 PM) Looks like Santos will be entering the game now. Not sure why Crain isn't available. Well, let's just cross our fingers Sergio has his control and his offspeed stuff like the Cubs' series. The managerial book that doesn't exist says managers should pitch their closers in a tied game at home when it's the 9th inning or later.

QUOTE (ROC Sox Fan @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 10:09 PM) When he came to the plate I recalled him having a huge hit last year, walk-offish style (anyone?). And I thought to myself "it's time f***er, I got your card next to Lilli's" (in my ironic cards of shame in my Sox room) and then it happened. Surreal. This is why I watch the games. I always a few ticks behind those watching on TV due to internet delay, but man! I'm alone and just celebrated like I was at the bar. Teahen was 4-5 in a game the Sox won against Toronto last year. He tied the game in the 9th, then gave the Sox the lead in extras.

Alright Ozzie. You saved your good arms for extras. Now use them!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 10:06 PM) That a boy Teahen and Ozzie! Great spot to use him As bad of a move as bringing in Bruney was, Ozzie's use of Teahen was the exact opposite.

Wow Pierre almost hit that one out.

We were one bad managerial move from walking off and winning this game.

f***ing Brian Bruney...

Is it? Come on! YES TEAHEN!

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 10:03 PM) Teahen due to deliver a big hit for the white sox. I believe. I also believe Bruney is entirely f***ing worthless. Bruney was due to have a s***ty game sooner or later. He's just not good. Too bad it had to be today.

QUOTE (whtsoxfan @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 09:58 PM) My name is Ozzie and boy do I have a knack for bringing in the wrong guy. Ozzie, you idiot, you just brought in Brian Bruney at the crucial point in this game. How is that ok? Seriously? I think Ozzie's line of thinking was maybe "It's a tied game, our offense sucks, I got reservations later on, so I should just bring in my worst reliever to make my reservation on time."

James Shields is an absolute beast. He should be in the Cy Young conversation. Back to back CGs for him. His ERA is now down to 2.4.

At least Dunn made contact in his last two ABs.

Don't worry, from the trend that's gone on as of late, the Sox will win the next two.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 09:39 PM) Our pen has been real good for quite awhile. I hope this isn't the forerunner to another crash. Don't want to get all crazt here though. We could use a Henry Rodriguez in our pen Brian Bruney doesn't count. Sean Burnett is in to face Dunn.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 24, 2011 -> 09:34 PM) To replace Pena, I think... Jeff Gray's been good this year. Freakin' Tony Pena.

Morse hits 40 points better against right handed pitchers. Has 6 more home runs against righties with an OPS 75 points higher. This is when you need a manager who can read a god damn stat sheet.
