May 18, 200817 yr A 7-3 WEST COAST ROAD TRIP! OC! ALEXEI! SWISHER! AJ! CQ! AND THE ENTIRE OFFENSE....YES! A 5 GAME WINNING STREAK AND A SWEEP IN SF! JUST WHAT THE DOCTOR ORDERED!
May 18, 200817 yr As mad as I was with Dotel out there, Masset did an AWESOME job getting 3 straight DP balls (2 for the defense to f*** up), and the offense was all over the Giants. Thank God.
May 18, 200817 yr Back to 3 games over .500 and a 1.5 game lead in the Central. Huge series coming up vs Cleveland.
May 18, 200817 yr QUOTE (Wanne @ May 18, 2008 -> 05:06 PM) Geez-us...I honestly can't remember the last 5 game streak!!!!!! April 3rd to April 7th.
May 18, 200817 yr The offense was good today, thank god, because the bullpen sucked. Dotel just looked like he was tired, and kept getting everything up. Wasserman and Thornton were just terrible. OC Masset Brian Anderson
May 18, 200817 yr Jason locked the " Your First Place Chicago White Sox !" thread saying it was a curse but just an awesome road trip. Plenty of kudos to go around. Bullpen looked sloppy until Massett. Another good start by Danks. Edited May 18, 200817 yr by CaliSoxFanViaSWside

May 18, 200817 yr Author QUOTE (RME JICO @ May 18, 2008 -> 06:09 PM) April 3rd to April 7th. Couldn't have said it better myself.

Thank God. The D didn't screw up the 2nd one. Durham was flying out of the box and it wasn't hit hard.
May 18, 200817 yr I love it when Alexei is hitting. He scored 2 runs they don't score without his speed.

May 18, 200817 yr QUOTE (G&T @ May 18, 2008 -> 04:15 PM) I love it when Alexei is hitting. He scored 2 runs they don't score without his speed. If Alexei was on base when Alexei hit that 2 out double instead of Dye, Alexei would've scored standing up while Dye looked like he was DYEing just getting to 3rd.

May 18, 200817 yr 6 players with at least 2 hits. All positional starters with at least 1 hit. Nice to see OCab finally come out with the bat and glove. His backhand stab of Rowand in the 2nd was sweet. Danks not great, but solid nonetheless. Masset comes in and shuts the door. Wass needs to be sent down.
May 19, 200817 yr how SWEEP it is...let's go get some SWEEP candy cuz I have a SWEEP tooth...los Gigantos chile con carne SWEEP I dunno, I mean, Quentin's a monster
May 19, 200817 yr Just got back from SF today. Got to see the first 2 games (Alexei's 1st career HR, Gavin, Buehrle, Toby Hall actually getting 3 hits in a game).....all in all I got to see a great stadium with no sight of Bonds and come home and see the last two innings to complete the sweep. Great weekend. Keep it up Sox. There was A LOT of Sox fans. At least 1,000, if not more. I'm not exaggerating. It's great to see so many Sox fans spread out around the country.
May 19, 200817 yr The Giants score 8, and they lose, ha. Nice to get some offense today. 5 game streak, let's keep it going.
May 19, 200817 yr QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ May 18, 2008 -> 09:19 PM) Good things happen when Thome is not batting in the third slot. Yep, and even better things happen when Quentin is in the 3rd spot. Keep the lineup the way it is Ozzie.... Is Quentin eligible for rookie of the year? I know he played in spurts the past few seasons.
