Guest wsc425 Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Thomas should have sat on that smart ass. I hope Thomas kills the Royals tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 In all seriousness, this one of the highlights to me of last nights game. Frank gets hit on the elbow for the 2nd time by the exact same pitcher, and saids something to him about it ("that's twice") the pitcher said something back so Frank was going to take him up on his offer. Then all of his teammates were out on the field WAY before the Royals were, including the bullpen, who was being led by Esteban Loiaza. I like the stick together attitude of it all.

IlliniKrush Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 It's not worth the suspension(s) we'd have to face Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandoFan Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 It's not worth the suspension(s) we'd have to face  Absolutely. Let the fans sort it out with opposing players. Frank needs to stay out of trouble, if he bites the bait, it'll only get worse the rest of the season, with every mediocre pitcher out to provoke him.

southsider2k5 Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 That's not the angle I was really going for. I liked the fact that the team stood up for Frank, and that Frank is fired up enough to care that he got hit twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 I just loved it to see Hurt show some fire!!!! He beat the Royal's with his bat and that's good enough. Too bad the pitching staff didn't respond that way too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KipWellsFan Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 I would have loved to see a fight, sure there would have been suspensions but it would have been great. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 It was great to see Frank picking on other people not Frank being picked on! This better show thew the Sox are not playing around! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Fainter Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 I'd rather see Frank beat up Sweeney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grebeck Fan Club Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Frank's not going to beat anyone up. Have you ever seen him knock over a catcher on a close play at the plate? Enough said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Frank's not going to beat anyone up. Have you ever seen him knock over a catcher on a close play at the plate? Enough said. Or even slide through a second baseman on a double play... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clujer420 Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 Frank's not going to beat anyone up. Have you ever seen him knock over a catcher on a close play at the plate? Enough said. He ran over Mike McFarlane (sp?) once. But he normally doesn't do that.  I think if a situation arises this season, we'll see the catcher fly like a raggity Andy doll.

SoxFan1 Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 Frank has a bottle of fire in him, he just hasn't released it, YET! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreye Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 I was in the first row behind the Sox bullpen. I couldn't believe how fast the guys jumped the fence and headed out to help Frank. I swear they were jumping onto the field before I even realized Thomas got hit. It was nice to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 Because it looked like Frank was gonna step on Brent Mayne and squash Miguel Asencio. They cant afford any suspension right now. The Sox stick together, and I am happy they stuck up for Big Frank! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our whole pen was empty, before their bullpen door was even open. And like I said earlier I was glad to see Loiaza leading the charge.

Rex Hudler Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 Just make sure to tell Frank if he is going to charge the mound, to make sure it is not Nolan Ryan standing in front of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 Just make sure to tell Frank if he is going to charge the mound, to make sure it is not Nolan Ryan standing in front of him. He can't ask Ventura for help anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
