Konerko with two HUGE baserunning gaffes on that play. Pulling his best Carlos Lee impression and stalling on the basepaths cost us an out and a valuable baserunner. Good job, you f***er.

Yah. No team ever has a stretch like this during the season, with injuries and slumps.

How is Konerko not running out of the box Ozzie's fault?

 

Yes, the lineup is 'the suck', but the players have done a real s***ty job of executing tonight.

I guess he should have been chasing Paul around 1st, kicking his ass! :huh:

Jesse Crain in = Rally Over.

I don't think PK thought that ball was gone. Rather, he was surprised that it stayed fair. I still don't have a clue why he stopped between the bases though.

I understand teams going through slumps hitting and pitching. But this team has failed to execute lately.

No....but this s*** has been going on for nearly 3 weeks now. The team has displayed just terrible fundamentals. How many base running errors and stupid infield gaffes can we have? If Ozzie is going to get ALL the credit for when we play well, he deserves to get blamed for when this team looks like a bunch of little leaguers.

f*** You Konerko. f*** YOU! Thanks for not hustling. He is not only a bad runner but he is a terrible baserunner. Frank while not speedy is a smart baserunner.

It's part of a slump. No team can execute 100% all the time every year, or they'd have 130 wins.

Dam i thought that was gone. Oh well, 4-2 now

Me too. It definitely seems like the Sox should be winning this game like 6-2. Good AB by Rowand :chair

I should have said Fundamentally

f*** You Konerko.  f*** YOU!  Thanks for not hustling.  He is not only a bad runner but he is a terrible baserunner.  Frank while not speedy is a smart baserunner.

 

Geez buddy dont let it ruin your life.

Crain hangs curveballs with the best of them.

 

Not frequently-- obviously, with a sub 3 ERA; but when it happens it practically floats to homeplate.

 

And before I can complete this post the inning is over.

That rally sure ended fast.

Frank was one of the worst base runners the last 5 years I've ever seen. PK is actually a solid base runner, considering his speed.

Crede should of dropped Mauer to his ass on that play for payback from last year. But he pussed out.

 

Konerko pulls a Carlos Lee and watches what he believes to be a homer and then gets thrown out trying to run to second.

 

 

This is shades of last years August series.

No s***. I went to take a quick leak and i got back and commercials were on :lol:

Wow...we should at least be tied without the Stewart catch, the Cora error, and the bad baserunning by Konerko... If they keep chipping away, hopefully they can get the lead.

Oh boy, you had to remind us of that? The ONLY chance the Twins have of even being a threat to the Sox the rest of this year is if they sweep us this series.

If the ump makes the correct call we wouldn't even be talking about this.

Don't forget Dye not being able to throw out the runner at home on an easier play than Ford had. Like I said, this game should be like 6-2 White Sox.
