GAME THREAD 7-8-2005 SOX vs A's

I absolutely agree with you.  Makes the whole "sunday lineup" even more puzzling to me.  For the life of me, I don't know why Ozzie let Willie bat in the 8th.  He has to know that he had no confidence at the plate.

 

 

Why do we rest so many players at once.

 

Arow

Frank

Gooch

 

Having Willie Harris bat 2nd is not going to work. He has a hard time making contact.

 

If Arow is out, Ozuna should play and bat 2nd.

If he doesn't, then I will not even watch the game. Especially considering Widger has hit Zito hard this season, AJP better not be playing. I don't understand why we had him and PK batting back-to-back tonight. Was Ozzie just trying to set the record for the slowest consecutive hitters in history?

The Sox would have 62 wins without em I believe. :headshake

Good job Timo, Pods, Viz, Walker.

Nice lethargic performance everyone else.

 

Oh well - s*** happens, gotta bounce back.

With crowd tonight lineup was horses***

Edited by Soxfest

Mark will get em tomorrow. No way he loses to these guys 3 times in less than 3 months.

LOL this is the funiest. Subtract these 3 guys from the team, replace them with real major leaguers, and we have a few more wins this season. That we're congratulating them on a well played game tells you how bad we were tonight.

Imagine my excitement when I heard the lineups on my car radio while stuck in bumper to bumper traffic with >$100 worth of tickets in my hand.

Southpark meets the Whitesox

 

3E8 : That does it! Shenanigans! Shenanigans!!!

Ozzie: What are you doing?

3E8: I'm declaring Shenanigans on you. This game is rigged.

Ozzie: Shenanigans?

Kenny comes along

Kenny: What's all the hoo-hah?

3E8: Kenny, I wanna declare Shenanigans on Ozzie.

Kenny: Why?

3E8: This game is fixed. Timo and Willie playing at the same time. Aaron, Big Hurt, and Gooch on the bench. How much did I spend.

Kenny: If that is true, then your declaration of Shenanigans is just. What do you have to say Ozzie?

Ozzie: I make the focking Lineup. I AM THE GOD DAMN MANAGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kenny: Yes, man you can't just go declaring shenanigans on innocent people, that's how wars get started! Come again to the park.

Cartman as the vietnamese whore was the best. This is actually one of my favorite south park episodes.

Oh and the guy sitting next to me was wearing a full Shoeless Joe Jackson uniform down to the weird bowling-type shoes and he sucked. What did I do to deserve this?

Maybe my reward were his three hits. :huh

God works in strange and mysterious ways.

This was just a blah game. If Tadahito is in there this is probably a victory, Willie was horrendous today. Scott's on 2nd twice with nobody out, he doesn't even attempt a bunt(he showed the first time but didn't attempt one) then he doesn't even try hooking the ball to get Scotty over, he was trying to push the ball to the left side for some reason, I don't know what was going through his mind. Sorry about this mini rant and I'm not against Willie or anything like that but he was awful, absolutely awful today.

They were both good tonight, hate them as much as you want but they did their jobs tonight.

A big hearty :fyou to Willie Harris for tonight's ball game. I'm trying to remember if I have seen someone single-handedly screw us over this year as much as Harris did tonight.

TImo.

 

Playing first base.

Perhaps. But IIRC that was also the Kevin Walker game, and Timo's error led to two runs. I think the Sox lost by 3 or 4 runs, so A) Timo had a partner in crime in Walker and B ) Timo's error did not have the same effect on losing as Willie's inability to move the runner over twice in a 2-run game.

 

Plus, y'know, AJ's throw to Timo wasn't all that great either...

Edited by Frankensteiner

The point is he should've never been playing first. Ozzie had three choices and obviously picked the worst one.

Oh yeah, quoting Hawk. "that hit him in the wrist"...

 

Yep that's attached to his hand, which is in the glove. :bang
