What was the email?

Worse outfield collisions and if they had any part in them.

What was the email?

 

The collision e-mail. Lets just say I know him.

Suspend Keith...CLAP CLAP CLAP 

 

LOL.

 

Seriously, though, I want Oakland to win just so I can hear what Phlaschke and Brantley have to say when they were wrong.

Please don't let this be a carbon copy of the Mariners game on Saturday where we basically stop scoring after the first few innings.

It won't...have faith or take some uppers

LOL.

I want both Oakland and Anaheim in the playoffs.

Lets turn two

Yuck, that's not a good start to the inning. How about a DP!

Wohoo!

DP

With the spin on that ball, I was pretty certain that was going to eat up Uribe. That grounder definitely would have went 5-hole on Valentin.

Nice job Mac

I was worried when I saw the feed to Guchi. It looked low.

If we make the playoffs, I'm praying for a first round matchup with Anahiem. Out of Oakland/Boston/New York/Cleveland, I think we match up best with Anahiem.

 

I don't think their offense is that strong, and I think we have better pitching. JMO, though...

I'm not talking playoffs and the Sox anymore, but Oakland and Anaheim are my choices and in that order.

 

They are thorns in the Sox side and if the Sox are going to make it to the big game I want them to go through the best.

I have hope that Uribe's new leg kick is helping him see the ball better. He hasn't been chasing as many bad pitches lately.

He's also been a lot more patient ever since his sessions with Hrniak. I think he's on the brink of getting to last years form and let me tell ya, that would be a major upgrade.

It would be so nice to see the offense pile on runs one of these games.

For some reason though, he's lost his power.

He is too strong not to hit for power. I think it more has to deal with him always being so far out in front he ends up hitting the ball near the end of the bat so much. The new leg kick seems to keep him back a bit longer and I think that will lead to some more power.

Lets get some more runs!!!

1-2-3 inning for Mac and that changeup is really looking good. Its been anywhere from 10-15 MPH off his fastball which he's throwing both inside and outside.

 

I also love how he's been willing to throw the changeup on 3-2 counts. It shows confidence.

 

It'll be 5-0 after the Sox bat next.

Am I going to get my 3-2 walk?

I'll be quite disappointed if Pods gets caught stealing. I don't remember Sandy ever throwing out a runner with the Sox.

Beautiful.

Are my eyes deceiving me? Well done 1-2 hitters....now we must score at least one run. Everett's taking some good swings.
