Just got back from my jog...

 

1-0

 

Contreras must be awesome...again.

 

Is K.C. pitching that well, or are we back in "August" mode of offense?

 

Blown opportunity after blown opportunity for both teams tonight. Sox have left two guys on base in almost every inning it seems.

AJ walks

That was Contreras' best inning. Ozzie better watch it though. The 7th inning seems to be a big trouble spot for the Count.

 

 

He's only thrown 77 pitches. Ozzie will leave him out there for atleast one more inning.

Holy s*** is that an old commercial for discount tires 

That's how they stay discount.

 

Don't spend $$ on commercials.

He hasn't been close to awesome. Lets just say that we're very fortunate to be playing the Royals tonight.

The pitcher walks the leadoff hitter, and Uribe swings at the next pitch? That's bad baseball.

Just not getting hits in the right spots tonight.

DAMN!

 

DP by Uribe.

 

2 down.

way to f***ing many double plays

Another DP. Give me a f***ing break.

Is this august again??

good inning guys...

 

AUGUST IS BACK

Another DP.  Give me a f***ing break.

 

Against a sinker baller, our aggressive swings are resulting in numerous ground outs.

Willie tries to hit another HR. 3 up, 3 down.

No its not. Uribe swung at the first pitch the time before and got a triple. Almost a HR. Just not getting the right hits at the right spots tonight. It happens.

what about our offense so far? more good pitching from them or bad hitting by us?

good inning guys...

 

AUGUST IS BACK

 

Willie is trying to muscle up and swing for the fences. My only complaint about having Harris, Pods, and Ozuna batting consecutively is that none of them can be relied on to drive in runs.

what about our offense so far? more good pitching from them or bad hitting by us?

both

The hitting is decent.

 

It's just not timely enough to score runs.

Well its nice to see that we are beating the crap out of a crappy team.

 

OH Wait we are hanging on a thread because our guys cant hit with men in scoring position.

Hey guys....It could only be Jared! That's Jared!

what about our offense so far? more good pitching from them or bad hitting by us?

 

 

We've had plenty of chancs to break this game open. Just very, very poor execution tonight. Thankfully, we're playing the Royals and still have a 1-0 lead.

No its not. Uribe swung at the first pitch the time before and got a triple. Almost a HR. Just not getting the right hits at the right spots tonight. It happens.

 

Against Wood, you want to avoid his sinker. After a leadoff walk, the pitcher will usually come back with a first pitch fastball (sinker in Wood's case). Uribe belted that triple on a hanging curve. I agree though, we're just hitting the ball to the wrong part of the field. We're still taking a lot better swings than we were a few weeks ago.

Looks like Royals hitters are swinging for the fences now as well. That'll work B)
