Well sweet. It was 6-0, and then our power went out for no apparent reason. We finally have power again, and some how we're getting twamped.

As leader of the pessimists.....KEEP THE FAITH GUYS!  We just have to play our regular starters more often, and we'll be fine.  I hope no one was expecting us to have a 15 game lead again this year.

I wasn't expecting our starters to be s*** either.

Wow, that must have been even more brutal than watching this catastrophe.

Im not saying the season is over or its time to panic or anything. But ive never been more disgusted from a baseball game since the 03-04 season. First time Ive turned a game off b4 its over in a LONG time.

Last year it took us 20 games until our first 3 game losing streak, this year 4 games.

 

That's why I don't want to hear anyone tell us that "so and so worked last year, so don't worry about it". Last year's team had an amazing ability to win games they didn't deserve to win, and to barely squeak out games they should have won by more. We're all hoping for the best, but it's hard to win 2 straight years based on that same formula. We'll be fine!

Definitely not a 15 game lead but maybe holding a 6 run lead against the Royals would be nice?

 

Even in a year where we won 110 games and the WS, we blew huge leads to the Royals. Some year, our pitchers are going to learn to stop throwing first pitch strikes to Sweeney.

If this doesnt show that last years team played above their heads, I dont know what does. Our pitching the last 3 games has been below average.

not gonna accuse anyone of anything, but i read in a chat on espn...someone asked gary gillette why there were so many high scoring games, and he said its possible that the banning of "greenies" could have something to do with it. he said alot of guys would take them before their outings to get amped up.

Earlier in the game, Hawk said he was very interested in how the pitchers on the Sox would perform, then mentioned he was interested in all pitching performances, and kind of left the reason up in the air. This could be what he was talking about.

6 outs, down 3

 

Either work some magic or put us out of our misery for tonight

Ozzie will never learn. Sweeney will kill us everytime.

Yeah, no s***. It's like we are trying to prove something, and he just destroys us over and over and over and over.

At least my new adopted team to give the Cubs hell, the Brewers, are 4-0. Man, would I love to have Brady Clark on our team.

WE GET DONUTS

Ozzie will never learn.  Sweeney will kill us everytime.

At least Garland kept him in the park tonight.He has 5 homers against him in his career.

I think our offense will be better than last year, and our pitching will regress a little. Should be an interesting year to say the least

WE GET DONUTS

Heh...they still doing that in KC?

thatta boy robbie, let's get something started this inning

Nice shot Rob!

 

Keep it rollin BA!

Let's follow rob's idea. Up the middle, no homerun swings unless your name is Thome.

This is the inning guys. I can feel it.

 

Side note....Hawk sounding mopey already.

These last couple games scare the s*** out of me. Damn it.

first 2 men on.

 

we're gonna do this.

At least Garland kept him in the park tonight.He has 5 homers against him in his career.

There would have been some homers against him if not for the wind.

Brian learned from Rob, up the middle and opposite way.

Nice poke BA!

 

Keep the line movin Ross!
