GAME THREAD 7-10-2005 SOX vs A's

Ozuna has been exposed.  He's playing too often, and you can see him wearing down.  If there's any chance Crede's back injury will linger into the 2nd half, we need to acquire a back-up 3b immediately.

Have we ever seen Gload at 3rd?

He's a lefty. That's not happening.

Or acquire Vizquel and more Uribe to 3rd!!

He throws right handed

You watching the game...The Twins IF has been amazing so far!!

 

No, just following it on the tracker. No surprise about their good defense....I can guarantee you that if they had someone like Ozuna who has embarrassed himself at a position, they wouldn't put them back out on the field at that position.

Garcia's getting slapped around like a little b**** because he's afraid to throw his fastball. His changeup has been awful today.

man, I'm this close to just changing the channel and calling it a day.

My nightmare scenario for this wknd was way too close to happening. Anyone else feel like we're losing a lot of our momentum? Barring a comeback, we're going to get swept with our 3 best pitchers going this wknd at home. And please spare me the record reason for why we have momentum....I know exactly what our record is and place in the standings....which doesn't mean anything because there's still a ton of games left this year.

Man, DJ was channeling me there.

 

If there's anything positive about this series, it's that we don't see Oakland again.

the Sox have looked so unenthusiastic the entire series. Today is no different, Cora ran the Sox out of a possible lead with his impersonation of Wendell Kim.

Leadoff 2B for Berroa bottom 8th...2-1 MIN

We've had bad stretches of a few games before and come out strong...the first time we left Oakland we came home and was spanked by the Tigers, El Duque won the next game and started an 8 game winning streak.

One of the best swings by Pods I've seen all year.

A possible 3 game losing streak doesnt scare me so much. The A's have had the Sox number for a long time, this is no different. If they get swept, then the All-star break couldnt come at a better time. Im not going to call the first half a fluke because of the last 3 games.

Hey Willie look...1 pitch to Iguchi and there's another productive out. 1 PITCH. 1 FREAKING PITCH AND HE HITS THE BALL AND MOVES THE RUNNER.

I know, each time this season where I thought we were going to go on a poor run, they ended up having a great run in them. Just would have liked to have that momentum going into the ASB, especially with a very tough 4 game series at Cleveland coming up. f*** it though, lets just win this game.

Man...lookie there. Double by Pods, 1 pitch moves the guy to 3rd, and Thomas drives him in.

 

Thank you Tadahito...that run was ENTIRELY due to you.

Am I watching the right game?

 

Did Paul Konerko just get a hit? Hoorah!

Somebody needs to give frank some rocket boots

Good work Hot Carl avoiding that DP. Good slide by Paulie.

 

ARow...knock this f***ing run in. OR ELSE.

Ever since Arow got into this funk, the one thing i've noticed is that he has been over the top of almost everything other than the really high stuff. It's like he just can't get his bat to go down.

He's been fouling off a ton of pitches to the right side. His numbers against RHP are really poor this season. At least he's been clutch.

He is flying out too quick trying to pull the ball. I think this homerun talk has gotten into his head, and he is trying to hit more homeruns.
