Wise had a chance to shut this crowd up with a breakthrough hit on the back-up/hanging slider and he just didn't get it done.

 

Now we're really in a huge dogfight.

JD has been f***ing pathetic in September

 

Again, he can't be put on the bench for a day off because Nick Swisher is awful.

Twins are pumped up showing enthusiasm... WHEN THE f*** WILL THE SOX SHOW THAT????????

 

We don't have to. We're a veteran team. pfffffffffft.

Good at bat

I wouldn't call it a dogfight. I would say we're getting smoked once again so far...

Hawk is such a f***ing jinx. STFU, Hawk...

If this goes the way it looks the rest of the season, I just pray that huge changes are made from the top on down. This team has no enthusiasm and just doesn't seem to want to keep playing.

f*** this s***. Let the team that wants the division most have it. Clearly the Twins. Thank god I can't watch tomorrow night because tomorrow is the last day we are in first place.

Join me in turning off Hawk -- unless you're listening simply to hear a guy go crazy. Which is fun, too.

Is Swish playing this game? If not, why? We have Griffey out there... UGH.

yes he did. And didn't do crap. Just a little basehit would have been huge there instead of a friggin swing from the heals wiff.

We will be up 1.5 games after this series.........it will be nice clinching at home.

Well, nobody can blame this game on BA yet.

 

Buehrle REALLY needs to have a fast inning. 46 pitches under heavy duress over just 2 innings.

why am I not surprised that Blackburn has been a scrub recently and against us he ll turn in a Cy Young award performance,fffffffffffffffff.ffffffffffffff.uuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.uuuuuuuuuuu.cccccccccccccc.ccccccccccck

.kkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm speechless. he just watched a ball come right down the pipe with two strikes. i mean...are you kidding me?

This was exactly what I was worried about. We would find a way to NOT score against a struggling pitcher who is throwing f***ing meatballs up there. Well, good luck tomorrow Gavin, we need ya to play meaningful games this weekend.

I'm actually glad I have Blyleven right now instead of listening to friggin Hawk.

1-2-3 Mark. Both you and the defense behinds you need it.

Sorry to say..... SOX DO NOT DESERVE 1st place.. this is terrible.. coming from a diehard sox fan from when I was very young...

I kinda think, if you see those shots of Ozzie, that he knows that his team isn't real interested in competing. He enabled some of that, with his bulls*** about needing to have a big lead before going into the Dome.

 

But I think he knows that, without Quentin, the team lacks pop. And even with Quentin, Ozzie's team lacks heart. I think he's known that for awhile.

With how aggressive the Twins are playing, they might steal 6 bases off of Gavin tomorrow.

Don't expect much. Gavin, like Mark tonight, went on 3 days rest last week. I wouldn't expect his command to be decent either.

It is tough enough to watch this game with the Twins magic act, but the aggravating tension dripping from Hawk's commentary makes it unbearable. I know, shut off the sound and listen to radio. I would but the satellite delay makes it tough as well. I really hope Stone can reign him in a bit next year. Win or lose, baseball is supposed to be relaxing to watch and enjoy. Hawk makes that impossible.

So are pitchers hurt more the start AFTER they go on three days rest? I remember someone on this board saying that not too long ago.
