August 27, 200520 yr Now the minor league bashers can't complain that the Sox don't have anyone come up from the minors and contribute right away. Jenks gets his first major league save yesterday, and Anderson carries the team for 10 innings.

August 27, 200520 yr To think he played because of Rowand's sore elbow. This game could have gone in a horrible direction if Brian didn't play tonight.
August 27, 200520 yr As was once said in this city, Real Men do it Twice. Good job, Anderson. Good job.

Even during a night game he was . . . walking on sunshine, whoa oh And don't it feel good, hey, all right now And don't it feel good QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 27, 2005 -> 12:51 AM) Helluva game for the kid. Two dingers, a double,a sac bunt and 3 rbi's. AND a White Sox winner in extra innings. AND a nice defensive play to make up for the lost in the sky, three guys standing around looking befuddled moment.
August 27, 200520 yr Have a night Brian Anderson!!! Congrats big man. Just a little request for Ozzie, could we play Brian against a human pitcher once in a while? His 4 starts have been against Radke, Santana, Randy Johnson, and Felix Hernandez... COME ON?!@?!

He made the White Sox realize that Reed was expendable."
August 27, 200520 yr Besides the obvious home runs, the thing that I noticed about Anderson last night was the way he actually squared around to bunt Uribe over to second in extra innings. In a sacrifice situations lately, Sox have been chopping at the ball and not getting the job done. If we are giving up the out to move the man over, square around and get the bunts down. Good job Brian.

Just a little request for Ozzie, could we play Brian against a human pitcher once in a while? His 4 starts have been against Radke, Santana, Randy Johnson, and Felix Hernandez... COME ON?!@?! From Rotoworld: Brian Anderson homered twice off Felix Hernandez and Tadahito Iguchi had a two-run shot off Eddie Guardado in ther 12th inning to lead the White Sox to a 5-3 win over the Mariners tonight. It's almost like manager Ozzie Guillen has tried to prove Anderson shouldn't play by using him only against Brad Radke, Johan Santana, Randy Johnson and now Hernandez in his 12 days in the majors. For one night, though, the strategy didn't work. Anderson had a solo homer in the third inning and a two-run homer in the seventh. He also doubled and gave himself up on a sacrifice before Iguchi's homer in the 12th. It's still expected that Anderson will be sent down when Scott Podsednik returns on Monday, but perhaps tonight's performance will earn him some extra playing time once he rejoins the club.

August 27, 200520 yr Hell yeah, it's awesome to see Brian and Jenks contributing. Keep it boys, we need it.

August 27, 200520 yr They are going to have issues finding places for people to play next year. Anderson deserves to get a starting nod next season.
