WilliamTell Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 07:33 PM) Buehrle is 1337 LeCroy eats those pitches for breakfast, along with bacon, eggs, hashbrowns, waffles, french toast, cheeseburgers, fruity pebbles and a glass of skim milk. lol I love it, at least it's lightening up the mood here.

southsideirish71 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 A mix of smartball and dumball. Ozuna gets on like Pods, Gooch moves him over Just like the first part of the season Then Everett swings at crap in the dirt and then pops up with man on. Classic Corpseball. And he should of Kd looking on a changeup down the cock that the ump didnt call. Arow works the pitcher a bit. Then Ks. No runs, No hits, Santana gets off Then Buerhle gives up the dong. 1-0 Thats bout enough runs for the twinks tonight with the tard offense out there.

CWSGuy406 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 At least we made Santana throw 26 pitches in the first. Could've been 30, but no -- our best hitter is bunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 12:34 AM) I agree that Santana has more of an advantage than Buehrle, but i like our lineups chances much better against Santana w/ a small zone, as long as they don't flail too much at junk. You're right, there's no excuse to ever lose to a pathetic lineup like the Twins have tonight. However, it just seems like the Twins take the field expecting to beat the Sox.

WilliamTell Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 07:34 PM) He was leaving a lot of pitches over the plate, but of course, all our guys were trying to hit homers. Also, Iguchi had a lot of good swings vs Santana last time he faced him.....sure great we're trying to bunt the runner over. Unless you're pitching Roger Clemens on the road, there's no reason to play for one run in the first inning. Yeah I would've liked to see Iguchi try for a hit. At least the sacrafice worked, but getting runners on 1st and 2nd with no outs would've been ideal. But anyways let's get the bottom of the order going, starting with Dye.

Unless you're pitching Roger Clemens on the road, there's no reason to play for one run in the first inning. We've scored no runs in the last 10 innings. We need to play for 1 run at a time. We're not going to get very many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 When the score becomes 2-0 is when offically the softball team will take over trying to park pitches into the stands like last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think the mood is rather relaxed in here, as most people are just sick and tired of watching this team blow at home. You wouldn't believe the amount of people who have PM'd me and said they're staying away from soxtalk.com this week, as they're expecting the worse.

No Hunter, Jones, Stewart, or Mauer in the lineup. If we get crushed tonight there are even more serious problems than anyone realizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well after spending over 5 hours at a game and seeing this pathetic offense choke in person. This is a hell of a lot more relaxing. I expect them to blow dog tonight, I didnt however expect Matt Guerrier to shut us down in relief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I just want to know where the people who told me to stop being such a pussy for scoreboard watching with the Indians and Twins are now? People might want to b**** at me for being pessimistic, but at least I'm consistent in my belief. I almost got into a car accident on the way to work this morning having to avoid people jumping off of the Sox bandwagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Well, we're f***ed. Another run or two for the Twins, and this game is really a long shot to win.

southsideirish71 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 The only good fact that DJ had in the first, is Johan is a guy you try to hit his fastball to right and right center, and if he does surprise you with a change you pull it still fair. However this is the corpseball kids and they pull every freakin thing. They cant help it. So tonight you will be treated to a series of popups, ground outs to the left side, and Ks.
