I can't watch it.. Who? Thome down the line to first or Gooch going into second?

 

Or both?

 

Thome must have stopped running.

you crazy it was a liner... not that surprising they turned it....

As this stage of the season, it's all about the loss totals. Our best chance of catching the Tigers is by doing it ourselves. I'd rather they play spoiler and help us out with the other team's loss totals that could rival us in the WC. Also, when it comes to the playoffs, I'd rather the Tigers be in it than the Red Sox. We match-up 10 times better vs the Tigers.

if i recall correctly we didnt match up too well against the sawks last year.

It was a soft liner that bounced away from Teahen. Thome probably presumed it would be caught. If he was running out of the box, he'd easily beat it out.

 

Nice play Juan!

#1 reason why Juan is the starting shortstop.

Orioles lead the Yanks 3-0. That doesn't hurt us.

or he saw it caught, slowed down, then saw it drop and sped up again...

If you hit a liner that a guy has to jump for, you should be running through the base until you're sure it's caught. It's not a big deal...our hustle has been better than it was a month ago. It's just surprising because no one hustles down the line more than Thome.

It could only be the same or better.

thats true... but of all guys i'm usually not very quick to criticize thome for his hustle. he plays hard.

Hernandez looks much better tonight. We're not picking up that changeup.

espn just didn't believe in our pitching

 

in reality because of the pitching we matched up quite favorably

sometimes, it can get really annoying to watch the white sox turn runelvys hernandez into cy young... its that inning boys... bust out.

ahhh dye

 

he was in a rare turn turn turn mode, otherwise he could have driven that to right field

Surprising lack of patience by Dye swinging at a pitch way up in the zone. We better be careful here, as this game can get late quickly and Hernandez will have more confidence.

the important point is that yes, i would rather face the tiggers than the sawks in the post season - BUT with the yanks being a lot better lately and the sawks having injury issues... i feel like the yanks are probably gonna make it in, and there's little way the tigers get beat out in the WC assuming we take the division so...

 

go Boston!
