Sox It To Em Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Honestly, leaving Ramirez is for a third inning is one of Ozzie's worst non-moves this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 12:04 AM) A fitting end to this one. Maybe Ozzie will realize you can't give away an out with a bad bunter down one in your potential last at bat. We deserved that loss between that managerial gaffe and the way we played this game back in April. Oh well, gotta win tonight now. Â When will this POS learn to stop bunting!!

whitesoxbrian Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 This one hurts. Â Ozzie stuck with Horacio 1-hitter too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Please archive this pathetic game thread. LOL at the comments about AJ and Ozzie. LOL at thinking a player from the Twins org cant bunt.

jphat007 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 The fact that people are blaming today on Ozzie is just so mind blowing. I know why the old posters no longer read gameday threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Since we decided we don't need this game, WE BETTER f***ING WIN TONIGHT. Â Ozzie clearly was saving up the bullpen for tonight's game, and figured he'd hand the O's a win, so that we can win the second game. He better f***ing do it.

whitesoxfan101 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) I've been one of Ozzie's biggest defenders all year, as people like fathom among others would tell you because I've defended him in a lot of threads this season, but you can't defend what he did tonight. It was just atrocious. Edited August 25, 2008 by whitesoxfan101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just atrocious. Â Just put the 9 best players possible on the field, and let them hit away until there's 27 outs against them. Smallball has created so many damn unproductive outs lately.

But for now, you can't cry over spilt milk, especially with another game about to start. Although this game is an exception to a certain degree, because it's hard to get over what Ozzie did this evening. But yeah, we just have to win tonight and get over what just happened.

elrockinMT Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 I checked in only to find Game One was over in the blink of an eye. If you are blaming some goofy move by Ozzie you must remember he often manages with his gut instinct and heaven forbid he is expecting a bowel movement.
