Crede drives one to CF off the wall. Leadoff double. Would have left the Cell.

 

AJ strikes out swinging on 3 pitches. Good grider ball there. BA Up.

 

Anderson singles to LF. Crede to 3rd.

Anderson singles to LF. Crede to 3rd.

 

BA, just stop trying god dammit!!

Uribe strikes out looking. Erstad up, tying run @ 3rd, 2 out.

 

Erstad one hop out to Bloomquist. Strands 2. Inning.

Anderson hitting .324, but his grinder index, I hear, is still dangerously low.

Charlie goes 3-0 on Ibanez, Ibanez doubles to the Left Center wall.

sometimes i have no idea what the white sox are doing

Anderson hitting .324, but his grinder index, I hear, is still dangerously low.

if he played everyday, he could hit 265+ this year

CHarlie goes 3-0 on Sexson (how do you miss that strike zone high?), 2 3-0 counts in a row, then walks Sexson.

 

Charlie follows up 2 3-0 counts with an 0-2 count on Morse, Morse grounds to Iguchi, takes the out at First, 2nd and 3rd, 1 out.

 

Johjima grounds to Crede, Crede misses it, Uribe fields, throws to first, can't get him. Run scores, infield single. 4-2 bad guys.

 

Passed ball, runners move to 2nd and 3rd.

 

Lopez grounds to Iguchi. Sexson scores, 5-2 Mariners, 2 outs, Johjima to 3rd.

Nothing would be better then Anderson ending the season on a hot streak. Considering Guillen said Brian has to "step it up" in the newspaper, and he's already responded with a single, it'd be hard for management to justify sending down Anderson if he's hitting better than Grinderstad.

Another strikeout ends that inning.

Our catchers have trouble handling non-knuckle ball pitchers and have no chance against knucklers. PB takes away the DP that would have been and run scores. Reed K's

 

M's with a pair 5-2.

He's been hitting better than Erstad for the last 2 weeks or so, and we've still gotten Erstad declared the starter and getting 500 at bats.

 

Iguchi sends the first pitch to the warning track. Another leadoff double.

Probably when he was part of a championship team, an all star and earned his 2 GG's. Funny though, BA is a god after having a less than average second half of a season, but imporved from his first half season.

 

I agree with you but spring training has shown that he is not this player any longer. If he is allowed to play center, left and first on occasion it is a nice pick up.

 

Iguchi with a hit.

Darin Erstad eats meat raw, chops down trees in the offseason and refuses to take a walk. That, folks, is a grinder (see: bad player).

Hilarious, stepping it up is hitting a single? Too bad Grinderstand has a single and a run scored.

Because Darin really used all of his Grinder abilities to get on base and let himself get driven in by a homerun. That's f***ing Moneyball.

If Erstad is all that why did nobody offer him more than what Pablo OZuna will make this year.

 

Thome Walks. First and second nobody out.

Thome walks.

This is why Haeger shouldn't be a reliever. Too much of a walk/passed ball risk.

Konerko doubles to the LF wall. Iguchi scores. Thome beats throw home. 2 run double, 5-4.

Iguchi and Thome score.

 

Konerko with a double.

 

5-4 M's......Erstad waved him home as he is now grinding from the thirdbase coaches box

Hilarious, stepping it up is hitting a single? Too bad Grinderstand has a single and a run scored.

No, stepping it up is stringing together multi hit games with more frequency between now and the end of spring training. A single is not much, but it's a start.

Dye singles to right. Konerko goes to 3rd.

 

Crede flies to the LF wall, Konerko scores. Tie game.

The more and more I think about Pods and Erstad leading off, the more I dream of having two fat guys who can't run at the top of the order, but get on base 37% of the time. Anyone who has a brain in their head knows that the entire offense is premised around hitting three run bombs, so you might as well get the guys on base first before we try hitting baseballs into the concourse.

AJ singles, Dye goes to 3rd.

 

Anderson hits a ball to the 2nd baseman. Anderson retired. Dye scores, RBI anderson. AJ somehow gets caught in a rundown and is retired.

 

Sox lead 6-5.
