Anderson fits right in. Trying to win it on first pitch.

 

Timo can't even save us now.

 

5 pitch inning for Nathan. He's going 2.

Pathetic inning.

 

Anyone notice Joe Crede has looked for a first pitch fastball in two straight AB's, hit it, and recorded two flyouts? He needs bench time because his plate approach is terrible of late.

 

Look at how much he drops his back/shoulders. It's one of the worst fundamental swings I've ever seen.

4 pitch inning.  GMAFB.  Our offense sucks and we are desperate right now to get runners on base.

 

old news on the offensive front.

Matt Guerrier was pitching, which makes the innning all the much worse.

I was thinking about that, but since he made the nice play, I figured I'd just shut up.

 

Oh I think it was the right play. It just sucks. If Paul is in there, maybe he doesn't make that play and we just lost.

another extra inning game for the Twins. 17th of the season (11-5)

So, if this is vintage Sox vs Twins in August, who makes the error for the Sox? I hope like hell we win this game, cause it will be heartbreaking to lose it.

Boy that Crede is the best pop up man I've ever seen

 

I've said in the chatroom Walker should convince Crede to purposely hit pop ups every AB.

 

If we tell him not to do it, and he does, perhaps it'll change when we instruct him to do so.

No, we have to win games.  You don't make the playoffs by not winning games.  Since when was the division decided in mid August?

Yeah we can use him up in August and have none of him left come September/October.

The Twins have a knock for getting some good fortune in extra innings. Like a infield single, that turns into a double. Then a sac bunt and sac fly. That Twins bullpen makes me nervous too.

Would it be a shock if the two teams that Cotts struggles against are the A's and Twins?

If thats the case .. put a fork in it. You need horses not daisies.

Lead off hit.

like a little punto flair to right? :lol:

I bet he steals.

This has a bad feel, doesn't it?

This is f***ing ridiculous.

 

Another bloop hit Lew Ford special.

HOLY s***! I didn't even notice. THAT f***ING SUCKS!

This is why I hate the Twins, have u ever seen so many infield hits and bloop singles? Mauer up = not good.

We still havent faced Crain or Nathan and they have already faced Politte, Hermy, and Cotts.

Whats basics... good call on the steal.

asshole

Stolen base, there is the Twins fortune: bloop single, SB, prob. sac bunt or Mauer hits to the right side and a sac fly.

mauer will now move punto over to 3rd

Seriously, why is he in this gamethread? He seems like a very nice guy, but we don't need a Twins cheerleader in a White Sox gamethread.

I had to do a double take the second inning. Nathan and Guerrier have similar body types, deliveries.
