Eaton getting in the pitcher's head

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 22, 2016 -> 04:21 PM) That was definitely interference. f***ing Rollins. Eaton gets robbed a SB. He might have been out had that interference not taken place though. The catcher hesitated about a half second after being hit with the bat.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 22, 2016 -> 04:18 PM) 34,526 Yeah those family Sundays help things quite a bit.

I just love Adam Eaton.

Team is slowly starting to show signs of life here late in this game, pitching, defensively and a bit offensively.

Rodon pitched a nice game.

I'm nervous a bit about the bullpen.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 22, 2016 -> 04:02 PM) I have never seen a team struggle this much to get guys in from 3rd with less than two outs in my entire life. Another reason why we shouldn't be bunting as much as we do. I have. 2015 White Sox. 2014, 2013...2007...list goes on lol.

Again Jackson just misses one.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 22, 2016 -> 03:57 PM) Bunting is a very difficult art. Royals announcers mocking the Sox not moving runners. Way to get it down, Sanchez. Means nothing if we don't get the clutch hit. I'm ready for a wild pitch. What are they saying.

Some great at bats this inning. Let's hope this inning sparks the end of this slump and the beginning of something good.

Grand Slam? Wishful Thinking?

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 22, 2016 -> 03:36 PM) Time to stop worrying, griping and crying about what might have been and what we wish had happened Thank you.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 22, 2016 -> 03:35 PM) Got to score this inning. Yeah, it's time to start getting these guys in.

Some good at bats here from Avila and Jackson. Good to see them not swinging at bad pitches.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 22, 2016 -> 03:20 PM) You're right. Everyone is terrible and should be fired. I'm out fellas. Can't ruin my Sunday on this board. Not sure when it turned so bitter and stupid. Used to be the best place on the internet. Everybody just b****es about how bad the team is, like a bunch of high school girls gossiping.

I would like to see some strategy here. Hit the ball to the right side, move him over then get him in

THERE WE GO! Let's ride this inning out. This is what fires teams up.

There's that homer I was talking about. Now maybe some of you will quit your b****ing

Would be nice if Rodon could just throw a nice, simple 1-2-3 10 to 12 pitch inning

QUOTE (fathom @ May 22, 2016 -> 02:51 PM) Relying on Melky and Eaton for power is a recipe for failure. Relying on Sands to hit bombs vs a power righty is laughable. This team hasn't hit a homer on this home stand. Not saying they should rely on them...all I said was it would be nice to see a homerun from someone in the lineup today.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 22, 2016 -> 02:49 PM) Rodon just can't seem to put guys away when needed. He us allowing too many runners and if not carefulvwill pay Yeah, either he's always behind in the count, or if he's ahead it seems he has trouble making "that one pitch" more often than not.

QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ May 22, 2016 -> 02:44 PM) Other than Frazier who's gonna hit a HR? Take a look at this group were sending out today, theres no power. Melky. Sands has some power. Eaton has some power. Lawrie has known to crush one every once in a while. There are more people in this lineup who can hit a bomb than Frazier.

It would be nice seeing a multi-run homer by the Sox in this game, or a couple solo shots.

They have got to get Ventura now before he starts to settle in. They need to be patient early, especially seeing Ventura was a little erratic in the 1st.
