Now that the gas can is gone, Webb will hold them down and we win this game 5-4.

He should have just swung away. I would have been looking for a gap double of my own after giving a f***ing RBI to the pitcher.

Paulino is throwing batting practice because he has no control.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 7, 2014 -> 10:45 AM) Actually the way it was handled by everyone involved was impressive. -Sale knew he had a job to do, and wasn't trying to hurt Infante to do it. He was coming in, and he was going waste high to try to plant one into his waist or back where he probably wouldn't get hurt. -Infante seemed to get that it was his turn, and that because his pitchers had plunked four guys, it was understandable. He didn't freak out, start screaming at the pitcher, etc. He was going to take it like a pro. -The umpire let Sale come after Infante twice, and didn't say anything until he pretty much had to after the 3rd time he came in. The umpire also didn't get pissy about Sale pitching inside after the fact. So how does it work after the warning is issued? No more inside pitches?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 7, 2014 -> 10:19 AM) Yeah, I like Sale sticking up for his guy. That goes a long way in the dugout. I liked how Infante knew the pitch was coming inside again. http://www.southsidesox.com/2014/4/7/55889...-sales-response

QUOTE (raBBit @ Apr 6, 2014 -> 04:02 PM) ??? That guy obviously didn't watch the game.

Still a fun team to watch. You can't give up 7 runs and expect your team to win. That's on Johnson.

Now Avi has costed a grand f***ing total of 8 runs with his pos defense.

Jose knows what he's doing. How can the other players be so clueless? (Gillaspie)

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 4, 2014 -> 09:15 AM) Doesn't cold weather typically lower offensive output? That's why I combined it with errors. 5 Twins runs came from Avi playing horrendous defense. The Twins almost threw the game again with that Tank at bat. A lot of offense from errors.

I think playing cold weather baseball was a cause of the offensive/error bursts this series. They still won 2 games and should have one the 3rd against a crappy Twin team. You could argue they could have lost Wednesdays game all day but they didn't. I want to see how they play against a contender. Not sure if KC is that test but we'll find out. I understand this is a rebuilding year but I'm pretty excited about this team. Just remember, they weren't going to go undefeated and they are going to lose some of those games. It's just baseball. GO WHITE SOX!

Anyone have a video of Garcia's bunt single?

Sale better bunker down and kill the twins.

Pitch around Dunn to get to Avi.

4 pitch walks will do that to a scrub hitter like Garcia.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Mar 31, 2014 -> 01:19 PM) That was a karate kick to the dome.

Gillaspie is a pretty patient hitter. He's not a power bat but does make a fair amount of contact. All the stats nerds can probably confirm or destroy my assessment.

Defenders are allowed to go straight up so you're just wrong here Steve. It's not about Heat hate. I don't think Bron Bron's elbow was intentional.

QUOTE (Cknolls @ Mar 27, 2014 -> 12:46 PM) Cut the f***ing workforce.. Want a license,,,better go a month early it will take a while....If the unions do not want to take a cut, gut the workers..At least it will be paid for. What unions are you willing to gut? Police, Fire, Teachers? If you start f***ing with the unions they'll f*** with you right back.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 27, 2014 -> 12:25 PM) Illinois is the standard bearer for this, which is why their credit rating is the worst in the country. Illinois or Chicago? (could be ambiguous in this case )

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 27, 2014 -> 11:08 AM) When Illinois quits handing out Cookies to everyone, that it can't afford. s***... can't you say that about most places?

So yeah, Quinn wanting to make this tax break permanent is pretty low considering most people are struggling out there. I'm not saying the republican candidate will be better but when will Illinois get their hands off my ooey gooey chocolate chip cookies?

Yes let's keep taking money out of the pockets of working people.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 26, 2014 -> 12:54 PM) I don't sit up that high. Aren't you a big baller, shot caller.

It's subjective. It seems to be the norm to shift away from the face to face only because you have different venues.
