Yah. Juan can't hit that pitch. Just too good for him.

 

If you're a pitcher with a slider, why not just throw it every-single time against Uribe?

 

He's shown absolutely no ability to hit it. Or even recognize it. He just made his own weakness obvious to the world tonight.

LOL. He would have had no chance to score on that play.

Apologize much?

call me stupid but I don't think Rowand would have scored anyway. The ball rocketed right back to the o.f.

I agree, but he shouldn't have been deked. Maybe the lack of sleep has the concentration level low. I think a lot of these guys got no sleep at all, at least that was what was implied on the news this evening.

If he's busting his ass all the way, he has a chance to score. I'm pretty sure Berkman's throw was off line to his cut-off man. You know Cora would have taken a chance.

The last two sliders were definitely hittable.  If he even had the slightest clue about driving it to RF, he could have crushed that first slider.

The 2nd to last one was MEAT, and the last one he should have poked to right.

THIS IS f***ING RIDICULOUS.

 

How did Uribe get to the big leagues without being able to hit a slider.

 

Jesus, this is becomming embarrassing now. This was our opportunity.

 

You wanna go ahead and direct that statement at the rest of the team. Backe has dominated all night, regardless of who it is.

no way in hell he scores on that double, hesitation or no hesitation.

 

This guy is just painting that outside slider, yet the Sox seem surprised everytime he pitches it. f***ing gotta adjust.

METAPHORICALLY, NOT LITERALLY ;)

hey fathom i'm not being critical, just curious. when did you get your game face on in the playoffs. you were saying at the start of the bosox series you were just happy to be in the playoffs and would not be critical at all. You were brutal on Oz last night. Again, just curious.

 

For the Red Sox series, I was like the fat girl at the prom...just happy to be there. Once they advanced, it became a different situation.

LOL. You aren't serious are you. You really think he had a chance to score? Seriously? I mean, what game are you watching.

 

Is there another game on tonight?

The last one was up and you're right if he was trying to go to RF he would have had a better chance than his attempt to hit the LF foul pole

I agree he would not have scored.

It was bad luck. Crede's bomb was two feet from being a homer. It was deep enough in any park, not high enough in boston and the minute maid s***ass ballpark

Or at the very least spanked. :whip

Rowand has horrible instincts and is completely lacking in fundementals. Pretty much a power hitter, only minus the power.

If he's busting his ass all the way, he has a chance to score.  I'm pretty sure Berkman's throw was off line to his cut-off man.  You know Cora would have taken a chance.

THere was a better chance of Rowand scoring by running full speed than hoping for Uribe to knock him in.

Baserunning blunders aren't bad luck.

Well, with Uribe in particular, you think he'd realize after the second slider that was all Backe would be offering.

 

Uribe made absolutely no effort to crowd the plate and have a better swing at the slider he's continually thrown low/away.

You can almost feel the agression in our posts tonights. We need to pass that on to the Sox for the next 2 1/2 innings.

Hermie up :o

It was dumb of him to stop, and a bad play because of it, but it had no effect on teh game in any way.

SSH he wouldn't have scored, how's that a big blunder.

there's no way he'd have scored on that bomb, not the way it bounced back to the o.f.

Lidge is warming up. He was unhittable last night.

One down. God, Freddy deserves better than this.
