Uribe is such a dumb base runner.  Why would you risk distracting Iguchi?

Or getting Scott held up when he follows on a double steal.

That's terrible fundementals from Iguchi.

 

Two straight opportunities to lay down a bunt and he BLEW IT. We need to succeed in this situations if we're not hitting--which we're not.

Look he shortened up the swing on a 0-2 count!!!!!

Several white sox hitters faint...

Yes he did. Hopefully Embree keeps throwing fastballs. A low slider will probably K him.

I wouldn't mind a hit and run double steal or straight up double steal.

What is this, the 2nd time all year Tad didn't execute perfectly?

Ok...if there's one guy on this team you can't complain about when he can't get a bunt down...it's Iguchi.

Exactly. Especially since Iguchi has struggled laying off pitches when the runner is in motion this season.

I have a feeling you wouldn't be posting if he got it down.

As do some SoxTalk posters............ :ph34r:

Remember when Embree was on the White Sox? God did he suck.

^^^^^

 

He sucks on the Yankees too.

Good idea, but Mr. 12-29 stealing in his Sox career scares me.

This will be the 19th pitch thrown to Iguchi in his last 2 at bats.

He should be able to get a great jump on EMbree. It'd be a risk, but not a bad risk at this point. I don't forsee a base hit to get anyone in.

Iguchi just likes giving out souveniers.

Some real good AB's by Gooch tonight, despite him not getting the bunt down.

A wild pitch would be real nice right here.

Barring a DP Tadahito, AJ, and PK would all have cracks to get base hits. You don't think one can serve a single?

Of course.

 

I'm not critiquing his entire game here. But in this situation, with runners on 1st/2nd 0 outs, the runners need to be advanced. We just can't expect a timely basehit with the nature of this offense recently. That's why the failed bunt attempt hurts.

He's just a nice guy.

Come On Tadahito.

 

You Can Do It!

Not to mention he's our only scoring. STEAL. Please. His move is SLOWWWWW

This will be the 22nd pitch to Iguchi in his last 2 at bats.

I knew it. Freaking steal.

Blah.
