I'm probably as big a Vazquez detractor as anyone on this site. But the man battled his nuts off out there today.

 

So Javy . . . hats off for battling your nuts off.

Nice start for Vazquez.

Tigers implosion of magnitude 9.8 scale going on 6-0 Twinks.

 

Lets get this win and lets get to 2.5 games out of first.

He's only at 127 pitches. I'd send him back out there.

If teams didn't baby players, and this was 20 and so on years ago, he would be going out back there.

Konerko swings, then suicide shrugs, fly out.

You get the feeling we're going to need another homer to win this game.

Tie game late? Time to bring out the home run swings! PULL PULL PULL

This would not a bad time to have Joe hit his 30th.

 

EDIT: nevermind

We're trying our best to make sure C.C. can go 9 innings today. Horses*** approach by the Sox today.

4 pitches, 2 outs. Way to help battle and get this guy out of the game.

Oh boy...McCarthy's up in the pen.

Konerko swings, then suicide shrugs, fly out.

 

Ah, but this shrug was more of the "I just missed it" as opposed to "I've popped up again" variety. Please, SSI, you must monitor these distinctions.

Hopefully that rattles CC's cage a bit.

Nice play by Garko.

 

The buffet table running to 1st then missed it. Garko should of yelled ice cream and he would of caught it.

Pinch hitting for Uribe sure seems appropriate.

c'mon Juany, run into one

Pinch hitting for Uribe sure seems appropriate.

 

No, he's been swinging well lately.

hahahaha what the f***

Way to make a quick inning guys.

Pinch hitting for Uribe sure seems appropriate.

 

i don't mind seeing Juan up there, mostly because i don't see anyone else as a wise choice to replace him, except maybe Gload, but then there's a lefty-lefty matchup

Uribe and Thome are the two guys that should be looking for first pitch fastball from C.C. Their game plan today seems to be to take the strikes over the plate, and swing at balls.

Uribe is an embarassingly bad hitter. Strike three did not even go 57 feet.
