SOX have only been swept once this year. There is no way there are going to let it happen today.

Hopefully RV will learn to not to get beat again by leaving a starter in a little bit too long.

DO OR DIE TIME.

LET'S BEAT THIS MOTHER f***ERS! HOORAH!

I HATE THE f***ING ROYALS

I didn't see the game, did something happen to AJ?

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 9, 2012 -> 08:45 PM) UIUC has a ton of Cubs fans and a heck of a lot Cards fans (as well as a lot of Sox fans also). So by your calculation, there are just a lot of baseball fans...

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Aug 8, 2012 -> 09:29 PM) The guys just look lazy to me, they show up from the start unready to play. Thats what it looks like to me. Maybe they're missing some competitive fire in the clubhouse, or maybe the manager is not motivating them enough. remember when A.J. had to yell "Let's hit this piece of s***!", and then they started hitting? When did this happen?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 6, 2012 -> 09:33 PM) Beckham's very good at hitting hanging curves. I see what you did there.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 28, 2012 -> 10:44 PM) The Tigers gave up Jacob Turner and a high level catching prospect to get Annibal Sanchez. We have up Eduardo Escobar and Pedro Hernandez to get Francisco Liriano. Sanchez got shelled today too.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 09:27 PM) And they don't care. That play, folks, could cost us the postseason. What a HORRID call. HYPERBOLE ALERT!

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 24, 2012 -> 10:59 AM) Hopefully the offense can continue to wake up, more bombs from Dunn, Konerko and Rios please thank you very much GO SOX! Amen. Go SOX!

Just win baby!

This series reeks badly of last years sweep albeit this came earlier.

When did Santiago stop sucking?

You gotta be bleepin' me. How does Humber only give up 2 runs to Boston? Aren't the offenses of the Boston and Detroit both potent?

Consolation prize; this will be the first time the SOX get swept this year. That has to amount for something, right?

Humber needs to bucker down and the batting order needs to be shaken up a bit.

I'm not losing hope just yet, maybe he had the 1st inning jitters. The kid for the kitties has a 10+ ERA. Let's roll SOX!

White flag trade this shiznit. Atleast we can get some good building blocks.

Little off topic, but does anyone know which White Sox player is a Verlander killer?

JUST WIN BABY!

JUST WIN SOME DAMN SERIES!

I thought this topic would be closed or moved by now. Yes I am SOX fan but I like to see spectacular pitchers when given the opportunity to do so. I have lived in Japan in the past and watched Darvish play but now that he's in the MLB it would be nice to watch him in person again. I have a lot of Japanese friends that if he were pitching would like to go to the ballpark. Since he's not, I rather not watch the SOX get KOed by a superior Rangers team without a good reason. For the record, I would hope that the SOX would crush him if he were pitching in that series. Not sure why my allegiance is being questioned here but to each their own.

Thank you for that. Guess we'll have to watch from home.
