July 29, 200619 yr ROSS. fishin'. GLOAD. BOBBY. fishin. JENKS. we needed this one, now off to Burger King I go.
July 29, 200619 yr Most crucial win of the season absolutely no doubt about it. We'll be making up ground on somebody tonight. And Ross Gload is GOD for a few days.
July 29, 200619 yr Man it was gut wrenching and I think most of us were a bit exhausted from the Sox failure to execute for a good chunk of the game (whether it was an error that lead to a run or us not getting clutch hits) but Gload made that go away temporarily and at least helps right the ship for a night with a huge grand slam and than a nice job at first to get his foot back on the bag after a high Uribe throw to record the final out. MacDougal pitched good in his stint, Thornton was nasty and Jenks was as well while Garcia at least kept the club in it and wasn't quite as bad as his numbers indictated (his changeup is becoming his best pitch). We needed it and hopefully Jon can go out tomorrow and turn this into a winning streak
July 29, 200619 yr So they pulled off the hardest win of the series: the first game and the toughest pitcher. Wow
July 29, 200619 yr I also want to give Ozz credit for bringing in two lefties and pulling the right strings late in this game. Without Pods and Mack we don't have Gload up in that situation.
July 29, 200619 yr 4 subs round the bases on Gloads grand slam...gotta love it. ROSS fishing GLOAD BOBBY fishin JENKS BULL fishing PEN
July 29, 200619 yr The 3 flamethrowers were all on their games tonight, no one is getting on base when Matt, Mike and Bobby are on.
July 29, 200619 yr QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 02:06 AM) I also want to give Ozz credit for bringing in two lefties and pulling the right strings late in this game. Without Pods and Mack we don't have Gload up in that situation. Yep, he managed very well the last few innings of this game. He handled the bullpen subs perfectly (after taking Garcia out one batter too late). I'm not sure what Ray's numbers state, but it would seem like lefties see the ball better off of him.
July 29, 200619 yr Author You know, I like Gload. Always have. I wouldn't cry if he got cut or replaced on the team, but he always gives it his all.
July 29, 200619 yr Wow... we won the first game and against the one id say almost elite pitcher they have. The offense should score some major runs these next 2 games and Garland has been our stopper. Also im loving this bullpen now with Thornton, Cotts, Macdougal, and Jenks finishing it up.
July 29, 200619 yr I AM SMILING, DAMN IT! I am fishing smiling! Its been so damn long!! If this doesn't spark this team, NOTHING WILL! WHITE SOX WIN!
