cwsox Posted May 2, 2003 Author Share Posted May 2, 2003 Koch still the closer.... and i'm on his side! I hope he gets 60 saves this year - and I hope being taken out wakes him up a bit more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonkeyKongerko Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 Wow, I was watching on pitch by pitch. So those two fly outs off of Koch were deep? Man I was gettin so anxious waiting for the stupid thing to update cuz I thought Koch was pitching to Chavez and nothing would happen.

They must have been scalded because I was listening to the game on the radio and Rooney sounded like each had a chance off the bat. My heart skipped a beat twice.

Mr. Showtime Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 They must have been scalded because I was listening to the game on the radio and Rooney sounded like each had a chance off the bat. My heart skipped a beat twice. Yeah, the first one was a f'n missle to center. The second out was just crushed to left center where Dorn made a new running catch.

CWSOX45 Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 Did anyone see what Billy said before Manuel came out to take him out? I read Billy's lips and when he saw Manuel coming out he said "f*** off." Billy's really starting to piss me off, he's been anything but automatic. Â CWSOX45 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's never really been automatic. He's been an on the edge type closer for a while now. He'll let runners get on, he'll give up long shots to the track, that's what he is. On this night the shots stayed in the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JimH Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 He was definitely pissed being taken out. Â Fact is, he walked the #9 hitter to start the inning. A big no-no. Â Then, Durazo got a hit off him ... Chavez coming up, you've lost the first two games of the series and Chavez is hitting a buck fifty off left handers. Â Like Hawk said ... even if Chavez hits one on the concourse ... it's the right move to bring in Marte. Â I like the fact Koch was pissed. He should be ... at himself. Manuel didn't walk the leadoff hitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxfest Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 Koch has been as advertised erratic and throws alot of pitches per inning , not a good mix for a closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted May 2, 2003 Share Posted May 2, 2003 At least Koch appears to care. I think we need this attitude. Luckily it all worked out well. His fiery attitude hopefully will rub off on some others! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
