Jose Abreu

2 of the 4 balls to Billy Butler were clear strikes on GameDay.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 03:45 PM) Does it not hurt batters when they foul balls off of their ankles? They get used to it, plus some wear ankle guards

Thanks to all four of you for your responses haha

What did Alexei do? I just know he got out.

Nice inning.

It'd be nice if Alexei were to do something here, but he's already 2-3 and hitting .471, so I wouldn't be too disappointed if he didn't.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 03:38 PM) That was probably a strike. Nah, it just missed.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 03:37 PM) Exactly. He was hit 198 times in 798 Cuban League games. Hopefully he can avoid injury. That's almost exactly once every four games. Wow.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 03:32 PM) He got hit a lot in Cuba. Jose Abreu is Carlos Quentin 2.0

3-1 to DV

Abreu's been hit twice this season already

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 03:27 PM) Looks like it might be Downs instead of Cleto. Didn't Downs pitch yesterday?

BAL has scored 4 in the 9th. They now trail DET 7-5.

Marcus is now hitting above .100!!!!

What is it with KC turning bust starters into MRP/SU?

Danks has thrown 115 through 7.

ESPN Stats & Info ‏@ESPNStatsInfo 4m The White Sox had 4 Cuban-born players in their starting lineup today, the 1st time a team has done that since the Indians on April 8, 1969

Somewhat productive out for Nieto

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 12:03 PM) From personal experience, I would say yes. At the second game, I was throwing about 33-34 mph on the radar gun on the outfield concourse. I'm usually in the 36-37 mph range. That could've been rust.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 03:06 PM) Going to cry if this isa 1-2-3 inning. Looks like you're free.

Alexei now 2-3 with a .471 season BA.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 5, 2014 -> 03:06 PM) Going to cry if this isa 1-2-3 inning. Prepare your eyes.

Through six: John Danks- 105 pitches (69/36), 5 hits, 3 ER, 4 BB, KKKKKK. ERA is 4.5, obviously.

Danks with 98 pitches through 5.1. He just got Salvador Perez swinging.

Caulfield how recent is that Eaton quote?
