Rios did hustle to score that 2nd runs. Thus I cannot blame this one run deficit on him. Morel and 4Ks, yes! Then collectively not hitting so far with runners on base. But we have one more inning. Score some runs.

Yeah, I would have liked to see Fuku in that situation as well. We better it light up that scoreboard in the ninth.

Great inning by Reed. Still Danks could have been in there for at least the first two batters. Save your bullpen b/c it is only a one run game and could possibly go into extra innings.

Hope Danks isn't injured or something? If Ventura yanked him early, that is a bad move. And I guess Reed isn't our closer.

Really should have PH for Morel. We have a decent bench. Fuku, Liilibridge, or Escobar would have been a much better option than Morel in that situation.

3 runs in 6 IP isn't bad, especially against Texas. You have to outslug Texas. C'mon Dunnster hit another HR. You hit one last opener, you have to hit two HRs this opener.

Colby now has 100 pitches. And Dunn could bat next inning if we get a runner on. Definitely PH for Morel next inning. And go get them Dankster. Yeehaw!

Rios..he knows how to get HBP and then run those bases. Nice job.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 6, 2012 -> 01:34 PM) Did that hit Rios on the head? Good AB by Rios. Now PH for Alexei.

Back to back seasons opener home runs for the youngter Dunnster.

Maybe Kinsler bunted on his own. Thought that we would never expect it. But you shouldn't do that after you hit a homer off a guy that you own. Stupid play by Texas whether call by their manager or Kinsler did it on his own. Let us take advantage of stupid Texas Ranger thinking. Please let us get on the board for the first time in 2012. Yeehaw!

Time to bring in Escobar for Mr. September. And time to bring in Mr. April for Rios. Amen!

Bend it like Beckham.That should spring him for the season.

Well after 4, Danks has thrown less pitches than Lewis (54 vs 70). Danks is pitching well, except against Ian.

Alexei always is a slow starter, isn't he? Hope Mr. April gets an AB this game. We had a runner in scoring position for two straight innings. 5 chances/at-bats to get him in. No clutch hits so far.

Danks would have a shutout and no-hitter if it wasn't for Kinsler. Next time definitely pitch around him if 1st base is open. Cmon our heart of the order has to respond. Put us on the board for the first time in 2012. Thank you.

AJ will be batting second soon. Not a good inning leaving the Tanks on 2nd. C'mon Danks need a good third inning from you.

In Texas they call that an DayanDouble.

Nice inning by the Dankster. YEEHAWK, let score some runs with our TankBaconatorAza!

Danks better pitch a good 2nd inning. Don't worry we have Tank Bacon coming up next inning.

That is okay. Hopefully now Danks has settled in. Only one run down. Danks didn't throw many pitches that inning.

Thanks for the link. I also found this..7 minutes unediting version...with Hawk and Wimpy giving the White Sox view of the event. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endsc...1CDgdg&NR=1 Nice seeing some of the guys of that 1993 team. Good team. 20 years anniversary coming up. 8 games up on the R's. Ventura, Raines, Big Frank, Big Bo Jackson, Cora, Guillen, Black Jack McDowell...nice seeing some old faces.

Maybe closer by committee then for now. Our four headed closer monster! Ventura should just announce that they are going with closer by committee or undecided at this time. Maybe my first critical comment of DA MANager. Otherwise, he is doing a fine job so far.

Good luck Robin Ventura. Have a Good Friday. I just read an article that Ventura won't reveal our closer. I guessing then we are going by closer by committee. I guess a manager doesn't have to announce it. Is this a strategic move OR....he "just doesn't know yet"...still open competition between Thorton, Reed, and Crain?
