May 21, 200817 yr CQ! THOME! CONTRERAS! BULLPEN (ASSISTED BY CLUTCH LASER GUY!), AGAIN!!! 6 GAME WINNING STREAK! 2.5 GAMES UP ON CLEVELAND...YES!
May 21, 200817 yr Very satisfying win. Without Carlos Quentin this team would be fighting it out with the Tigers, he's simply incredible.
May 21, 200817 yr QUOTE (WSoxMatt @ May 20, 2008 -> 09:04 PM) what was the deal with the laser?? QUOTE (Chet Lemon @ May 20, 2008 -> 09:23 PM) Quentin's baserunning in the 8th inning was the highlight for me. Ditto to both.
May 21, 200817 yr Author Dotel came in in the bottom of the 7th with 2 outs. After falling behind 2-0, he complained that a laser was coming from the upper deck and bothering him. He came back with 3 fastballs to strike out the batter.
May 21, 200817 yr What more can be said about CQ? This guy is a 5 tool player in every sense of the meaning. He can do it all out there. Still can't believe the Sox got him for a A ball player. Indians lineup is not imposing and the Sox pitching shut them down. Great job pitching and the offense pitched in enough!
May 21, 200817 yr YESS!!! Number one you gotta give it to the offense for squeezing out some runs vs CC. Two, hands down to the bullpen. They came out and SHUT THEM DOWN! Ofcourse gotta give it to Contreras for the great start!! CQ!!!! Thome!!!! Pablo!!!!! Count!!! Bullpen!!!! :headbang
May 21, 200817 yr We caught a break avoiding Carmona and Lee this series, and made our own break by beating C.C. tonight. Looking good, keep it up fellas.

May 21, 200817 yr Jose Contreras has had a spot in my baseball heart since NY. This is just great right now.
May 21, 200817 yr No reason we shouldn't sweep this series now. Yes there is. The unpredictability of baseball. But as far as this game ... wow our top two hitters in the lineup go 0-for-9 and Swish goes 0-for-4 again, yet we win. Great Jose; great bullpen. Amazing Quentin. Remind me again. How did we acquire this guy?? KW is going to be the most popular GM in America if Quentin keeps this up. Will the guy start the All-Star game?? Oops I don't want to hex him.
May 21, 200817 yr early runs off of Sabathia- check Great pitching preformance from Contreras-check Key pitches from the pen-check Grinder type baserunning-check Adding runs late-check Hawk not need viagra after that-check
May 21, 200817 yr Is it fair to say that Alexei is already a better hitter than Uribe? Since Uribe got hurt and Alexei played every day he's gone 6-16 and raised his BA 50 points.

It's fair to say YOU are a better hitter than Uribe, and you don't play professional baseball as far as I know.
