QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 11:00 PM) I don't think Oz will survive this train wreck of an offense. Our only hope as a team is to have the starters soon go eight instead of five and six. If they completely dominate like pitchers did in the 60s, then we could win some 2-0 and 3-1 games, maybe some 4-2 and 5-4 games. We don't have the offense or set up men to win any games in which our starters only go five to six innings. We're not going to score runs. Does anybody dispute that simple sentence? We're going to start scoring more sooner or later. These things always regress to the mean, and this team should be able to score 4.5 runs a game when they do. If we had scored 4 runs instead of 3 in 9 innings these past three games, we'd have at least 2 more wins.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 10:59 PM) Rauch laughs at KW and OG! His pitches sucked. He got hit hard the whole time and was lucky to escape.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 10:58 PM) Do you really think that would have mattered? Both those players totally suck. Mark Kotsay can't hit a home run in a phone booth. At least Jones has some power.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 10:53 PM) looked like a botched hit and run. Rios is not that bad of a basestealer. Somebody didn't steal the signs right.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 10:52 PM) Omar never gets that hit Probably not.

If only Rios succeeded at stealing that base...

Oh god, here comes Kotsay.

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 10:43 PM) LOL we're staring at 1-9 It might not be a complete overstatement. Have you seen how we play in Toronto? Screw these schedule makers man. They always put us in Toronto when we can't hit for s***.

That ump missed both of those pitches. According to Gameday, both were strikes and just had the corner.

This is why you don't let Mark Teahen pinch run for Konerko.

Thank goodness we left Kubel on the on deck circle. We're still not winning this game in the 9th, but whatever, lol.

I have a feeling that Morneau is just going to sit on a hanging slider and hit it to the concourse.

Mark Teahen at first? I'm not going to like this.

What is up with all these line drives right at people?

Ozzie uses Teahen to run instead of Nix. What?

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 09:40 PM) Great heckler. Screaming, "Hudson, you're swinging too late! Hudson, start swinging now!" I heard that too lol.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 09:41 PM) Has Nix ever played LF? Yes.

Thornton just sawed Span and Hudson off.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 09:28 PM) Tie game. Let's win it. Let's say I'm not utterly confident right now. Juan Pierre, baby, why no fly ball? This is Juan Pierre we're talking about. He hits around 55% of his balls in play into the ground.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 09:25 PM) Keep giving those outs away. Pierre is an RBI machine I forgot. Guillen continues to show his inabilities. Speaking of bunts, Ozzie should have tried to squeeze there. After all, I thought he was a man who gambled.

Another wasted double. What else is new?

Come backer...ugh.

Pierre is going to have a real hard time lifting anything up far enough to get Alexei in.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 9, 2010 -> 09:20 PM) I will go on the record saying I could see us bunting, but would prefer AJ swing away. It may take more than one run to win this thing, anyway. If it was the ninth inning, bunt. I won't freak either way. As long as A.J. makes contact and is thinking pull, I'm fine with him swinging.

Now this is when you should bunt.
