Thank you Rowand

God bless Rowand against lhp.

i knew he would get lit up sooner or later...looks like rowand has his number today.

Frank an Goochie's heels. The big man motoring pretty well.

Anderson seemed to be tripping over himself in LF. Chone probably could have come a lot closer to catching that if he was out there.

Aaron "The Great One" Rowand... Comes through again....

f*** yeah, AROW, needed that one horribly. 3-0 and thank god we got a crooked number out of this

thank you A. Row.

 

seems to be a much better hitter at home.

 

don't know if the stats support that, but it looks that way to me.

Good to see Rowand heating up. He's a big part of our offense

Why in the hell does Dye always take a perfect strike down the plate but swing at breaking balls in the dirt?

They are still afraid of Frank  Great eye.

 

I love it!

We've talked about this at length. Considering he doesn't have a great eye, and is very prone to swinging at offspeed stuff in the dirt, it's not a good approach. Basically, he's putting himself in a big hole, and really only one good swing before he needs to protect against the slider in the dirt, etc.

Watching tapes of Sammy Sosa maybe...

There's some vintage Dye for ya

Thing is, Sosa would trick pitchers sometimes, and he's swing out of his ass on the first pitch heater down the plate. Dye doesn't seem to be changing anything.

And Dye K's on the low breaking ball. Walker needs to train him not to love that pitch. But almost all of his homers have come on golf shots on low breaking balls.

Lets hope Buehrle gets into a rhythm and retires something like 18 in a row

Can you say slider speed bat? One of the most common signs that a player has passed his peak, and his career is on the downslide.

Mark looking like Mark today

Cmon Mark, no walks

There's a gopher ball. 3-1 Sox.

Way to get us in the dugout Buehrle

Buehrle missed his spot by a foot.

Yeah, gave him a cookie there and he took it for a ride
