WCSox Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 I'm surprised they ran on Ichiro. Not a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Ha, jphat is not going to be happy. That's so stupid to send Nix with Thome on deck. Rios is not a #3 hitter Ozzie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFirebird Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Wow. Defense, defense, defense kept this game scoreless. With our defense it would 1-0 or 2-0 Mariners after that inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Dye Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Ichiro's a great thrower but against an ace you take your chances when you've got em. Out of a 100 times how often is he out on that? He wasnt out by a mile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 04:13 AM) That was a stupid base running decision. Nix couldn't have had a weaker slide if he tried. You can't just go feet first into the glove like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we are 0-4 with RISP and suck at it in general. All you have to do is it a ball to mid to deep in the outfield away from Ichiro. He didn't strike out. That's good I guess.

WCSox Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 It wasn't deep enough, and it's not like we haven't been able to get hits off of "King Felix" tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In case you haven't noticed we're going up against one of the best pitchers in baseball tonight. You're acting surprised that we haven't put up 10 runs by now.

I feel our ability to get runs off Felix tonight has been highly suspect, in that we have zero of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you have to do is it a ball to mid to deep in the outfield away from Ichiro. He didn't strike out. That's good I guess. I understand that. Regardless Ichiro had all of his momentum coming right towards home plate, he set himself up perfectly, not to mention he has one of the best arms from right field. Cox should have known that, I understand it's King Felix, and I understand you try to force the issue in games like this, but there was no point to sending him there. He was a long gone.
