People need to stop saying ya but they are beating bad teams.

 

The Sox are over .500 against teams with winning records that is why they need to beat the bad teams. If they beat the bad teams they could make this exciting as I say this, they will probably blow this game and I will be back in the we suck mentality.

 

True, but Pirates bad is much different than Indians bad or Kansas City bad. The Pirates are as close to a triple A team as a major league team can be. Thank god for them that they play the Cubs so much

WHO IS THIS TEAM!!!!!?!!?!?!!?!

 

Don't care if we are playing garbage. We are getting timely hitting on the road, scoring runs without homers, and getting good pitching. Color me optimistic for now.

 

Won't look at Minny until we get to .500 though.

agreed. I like what I am seeing. . . Becks and Q are heating up (it is about time!) and the starting pitching is coming through for us. Much easier to watch wsx baseball when the team is actually playing somewhere near its potential.

Tonight we're enjoying the typical Mark Buehrle experience.

 

Mowing down the opposing team's lineup, giving up a solo job somewhere in the mix. . . hopefully a win.

If y'all know anyone in Southern Minnesota, I guess they are reporting up to a dozen tornadoes on the ground.

Putz coming in in the 8th?

Santos was warming when they showed the pen.

Buehrle still in on the mound.

LaRoche hits 1 out double over Rios head.

Sergio Santos in, Mark Buehrle out.

 

Great outing by Mark!

That 3-2 pitch sure looked like a strike.

Ugh, bases loaded, as the tying man comes to the plate. Alexei should have tried to get the out at first!

Loaded.

 

Alexei should have been going to first.

 

Tough play.

c'mon santos pitch over it

Damnit Alexei and his fumbling problem. He is so good at getting to balls, but awful at getting them OUT of his mitt.

Santos really struggling with his control. Where's Putz?

Need to get Sergio out of the game, get Thornton up

Thornton in.

Thornton coming in to face Jones. Santos seems to have hit the wall, as he just isn't as sharp with anything lately.

Why did Buehrle start this inning?

Boo...come on Santos. K the next 2.

Why did Buehrle start this inning?

Because the pitcher's spot leads off next inning.

Why did Buehrle start this inning?

 

I think he told Ozzie in the dugout that he wants to go out there.

Mercy, he just missed that!

meh, just come up in the 9th and score 4 more runs like we have been all game
