June 24, 200421 yr Is it just me or do Hawk and DJ sound miserable today? No idea, all i have is radio at work HOME RUN VALENTIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
June 24, 200421 yr Rauch started out solid in the first few innings last time too; it'll be more interesting to see what he does the rest of the way. That's what I am thinking too. Anyways - there's two tickets for tommorow's game, 65 dollars a piece, yet my brother can't go. I've never been to a Sox/Cubs game, surprisingly I've been to about every other big rivalry game (Hawks vs Wings, Bears vs Packers), yet not Sox/Cubs. As they say on the northside, 'Maybe next Year.' VALENTIN 3 RUN SHOT!
June 24, 200421 yr I take it back....That was huge!!!! THANK YOU JOSE!!!!!!! We finally got some f***ing early run support for a 5th starter.

VALENTIN 3 RUN SHOT! i was able to get 3 tickets for sundays game on ebay 2 weeks ago. LF right behind the bullpen for $60 each, not bad.
June 24, 200421 yr That's what we need, when we hit homers, we need people on base. That is huge, absolutely huge.
June 24, 200421 yr Why is Jose so much better wth ducks on the pond as opposed to when there is no one on base? One thing I will never figure out...
June 24, 200421 yr Bottom of 1st: Rowand- ground out to 2B Uribe- reaches on error by Belliard Thomas- Fly out to CF Lee- single to LF Uribe advances to 2B Valentin- 3 run HR to CF Uribe and Lee score Konerko- strikeout (swinging) 3-0 good guys going into top of 2nd
June 24, 200421 yr Hmm - I find this interesting about Konerko. When he gets into his hot streak, he seems to take less pitches. But when he isn't hitting a lot of homers, he seems to walk a lot more and make better contact. What do you guys like better?
June 24, 200421 yr I take it back....That was huge!!!! THANK YOU JOSE!!!!!!! We finally got some f***ing early run support for a 5th starter. IIRC, they scored a few for the last fifth starter...
June 24, 200421 yr Is anyone else completely sick of these stupidass Miller Beer commercials? They're not funny, witty, or even remotely entertaining. Brew this, jerks.
June 24, 200421 yr Why is Jose so much better wth ducks on the pond as opposed to when there is no one on base? One thing I will never figure out... Well for one, pitchers have to throw you strikes, more fastballs, etc.
June 24, 200421 yr Why is Jose so much better wth ducks on the pond as opposed to when there is no one on base? One thing I will never figure out... If you're only going to only get one skill or the other, I'd rather have him be clutch with people on base, rather than with out people on base.

But when he isn't hitting a lot of homers, he seems to walk a lot more and make better contact. What do you guys like better? If he's hitting a first ball fastball that has a lot of the plate, i'm fine with it. Sure, patience is nice, but sometimes the first pitch is the best one you will see the whole at bat. I played baseball in high school this way. I know it's not the majors, but pitchers at both levels like to get ahead on hitters, and sometimes that first pitch is a nice fastball to try to drill. I've never believed in taking pitches for the sake of taking pitches.
