Yeah, Razor was pretty great. The year before was kind of headscratching. Thing is, Razor fell out of favor in the organization.

PK has gone 3-4 tonight

Wow, if that fell, we are leading.

DAMN

Damn...needless to say, a great defensive sub by Leyland.

Damn how did he f***ing catch that.... sheesh.

Are you friggin s***tin' me......

dag gummit

f***, I just got in to see that catch.

 

Was Vazquez as bad as his line?

 

Words can't describe my hatred of Javier Vazquez.

Stupid ball just hung up. Wasn't that great of a catch.

Safe to say the Tigers coaching staff is beating the White Sox's staff tonight?

great move by leyland bringing in raeburn - thames wouldn't have had it.

DAMN

 

Sorry, Hawk. It wasn't a "brilliant" play. He had it the whole way and stretched for it. It was a Mark DeRosa kind of great catch.

 

The Cox F-up still cost a run....at least.

It was a legit catch. He's pretty good defensively.

Not really, you leave Thome in the game, since his run isn't that important. I have no problem with Thome staying in for the chance he hits in the 9th.

What do you mean Thome's run wasn't important ? You pinch run in that situation. It possibly gets you 1 run closer . Having a 1 run deficit is better than a 2 run deficit in the 9th inning. If Thome bats in the 9th that means the Sox got some runs .

Keep them scoreless, and get Uribe on base somehow and we might get something going.

Please sit on the change......

 

 

How do you sit on a change when Rodney has been throwing 97-98 recently?

 

He has a great change, but you you always have to look fastball first and then adjust...if you look for the change, then you're in real trouble.

 

DARN!!!

 

Thought that ball was going to get down the tie it up...Ramirez had the right approach. Just wish we hadn't left so many runners on earlier in the game when Griffey, Ramirez, Cabrera and Quentin had their opportunities to make it closer.

Yes. Only good move Ozzie made was leaving Javy out there instead of burning our bullpen for a game that looked like we were going to lose back in the 5th.

Why leave Russell in? With a 2 run game, this should be Logan vs Granderson

f***, I just got in to see that catch.

If he doesn't let Cabrera beat him, then maybe he has a good game.

Well if we lose this game even though there are a number of reasons, nothing is as bad as Cox, I know im being kind of a hothead but I definitely wouldnt be against him being fired immediately after the game... this isnt the first time he was way off.

I'll say this, though. Alexei Ramirez is the one guy I want up there in any clutch situation. Ahead in the count, behind in the count, breaking ball, fastball -- the guy just puts a good swing on it no matter what. He's been awesome in those situations.

What do you mean Thome's run wasn't important ? You pinch run in that situation. It possibly gets you 1 run closer . Having a 1 run deficit is better than a 2 run deficit in the 9th inning. If Thome bats in the 9th that means the Sox got some runs .

 

Yea, I didn't quite get that. His run isn't that important if it's the 9th IMO because you still have a runner on and the tying run at the plate. But since we had another inning, his run was important because one swing of the bat in the 9th and it's tied up!

What's easier to hit...an 85ish mph pitch you're looking for a 98 mph heater? He throws that pitch 40-50% of the time.
