baggio202 Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 somebody needs to tell dumbass jimenez its not really a good thing to swing 3-1 when your batting in the lead off spot down 2-0 in the 5th and no one is on base...dickhead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clujer420 Posted March 31, 2003 Author Share Posted March 31, 2003 Bottom 6 WGN AGAIN is late returning to the game. That is unacceptable. - Berger grounds out to Jose for the first out - Harvey hits one softly past Konerko for his 2nd double of the game - Berroa grounds weakly to Jose for out #2. Harvey stays put - Mayne grounds one...it's saved from going into RF by Jimenez...Harvey rounds 3rd too far, there's a run-down, and it's BEAUTIFULLY handeled, as Harvey is tagged out at the plate. Nice D by the Sox on that play 86 pitches so far for Buehrle, and he's through 6, but trails it 2-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 I have no idea how anyone thought they could score on that, but hey it gets us out of the inning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwsox Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 I couldn't believe that the royals player took off from 3rd on that play. At least has to Waving Wally's clone as 3rd base coach. I am liking Jiminez more with each play he makes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steff Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 I was able to kick the old ladies off the TV in the lunch room... Why they are not coming back to the game in time I have no idea. And when they do come back.. pan the crown for Mark's family.. ummm... who cares. Game on the field.. hello!! So Frank does good and get's his fat ass to third.. but f's up at home. Why not just stay at 3rd..? Ugh.. should have just stayed at my desk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baggio202 Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 and he gets shot down at home, with an infield nubber. in fairness to frank with a runner on first if there is any doubt you gotta go or you risk standing on 3rd watching a DP..but there was no way randa would turn two... oh..have i said that carlos lee sux yet???

clujer420 Posted March 31, 2003 Author Share Posted March 31, 2003 Top 7 Jason Grimsley in for the Royals - Thomas (1-1; single, walk) walks on 4 pitches, and looked very nice doing it - Ordonez (0-2) grounds one in the hole, off Randa's glove, it dies in short LF, and Frank very nicely goes into 3rd. 1st and 3rd, 0 out - Konerko (0-2) grounds to Randa, who throws out Frank at home (not Frank's fault, he did the right thing IMO). And why the f*** did Paul leave the bat right there at home? That's the last thing we'd need, is Frank injuring himself on that play. 1st and 2nd, 1 down - Lee goes down on 3 pitches. WTF, he didn't know that he had 2 strikes on him? Unacceptable (on the replay, he's right, the first pitch SHOULD have been called a ball, but the ump called it a strike) - Crede strikes out, and the Sox WASTE a golden opportunity to get back in this game. Not exactly in mid-season form to say the least. Through 6 1/2, we're in trouble, down 2-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 i could have run faster backwards than frank did forwards to home on that play...1st and 3rd no outs, don't score....threw away the game right there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted March 31, 2003 Share Posted March 31, 2003 SOS we make terrible pitchers look great yet again, the last 4 years we have done this 75% of the time. 6 inn 2 hit versus this guy is terrible.

clujer420 Posted March 31, 2003 Author Share Posted March 31, 2003 Bottom 7 Buehrle still in there for his 7th inning of work - Bunt attempt by Febles (I think) fielded very nicely by Konerko, who dives and puts the tag on for the 1st out - Tucker flies out to Rowand, and very quickly there are 2 down - Randa hits Mark's 96th pitch of the game into the gap in right center, and Aaron makes a very nice diving catch to end the inning That will be it for Mark. 7 IP and 2 ER is very acceptable. He was helped, though, by his offense. That catch by Aaron, an early relay play that got a runner out at home, and the nice play by D'Angelo saved a total of at least 2 runs. He didn't have his best stuff by any stretch, but as usual, he gave the Sox a chance to win. Let's see if the offense can get it together.
