That one isn't on the baserunning.

 

It is a little bit.. If Paulie would have seen that the ball was caught, he would still be on base and there'd only be 1 out, setting up perfectly for a more typical GIDP from AJ.

Do we have a reliever who can get the lead to Santos?

Did they hit and run with Konerko and Quentin?

Just a lucky ass catch for Cojack.

Paulie was never going to have seen that ball be caught. If he'd stopped and waited to see that it hit the ground, he'd have gotten thrown out at 3b if it had been dropped.

Matt Thornton to start in the 8th?

It does seem like it's against the law for our base coaches to communicate with the base runners.

Seriously what the Hell could have been done there?

 

Yell "Go back"? Bull, would have done nothing.

 

That's as freaky of a play as you can get.

There seems to be no coaching at all except for Cooper in this organization.

 

This is a prime Sunday get away day blown save that Jenks made famous the last couple of years.

Crain 1 out Thorton coming in now.

If Ozzie wants to lose the game!

If Paulie had stopped near second base, on the first base side, he would have had a damn good chance to either get back to first or get to third once he knew what happened with the ball. If the ball had dropped, there would have been more time where Jackson was not in control of the ball, allowing plenty of time for him to reach third.

 

He played it wrong.

It's not like Konerko would have scored if that ball dropped anyways. Yes, it was a fluke play, but it was strange seeing him standing at 3rd with Cox not even knowing what was going on.

Hey, Matty put away a hitter with an 0-2 count.

He knew what was going on 1/2 way between 2nd and 3rd, you could see when he pulled up.

Jeez Omar...looked his age on that.

3 hits for Ellis...........Sad

Plenty of time for Paulie to reach 3rd? Maybe you're forgetting who's doing the running.

I thought Konerko was standing on third asking what happened? I could be wrong on that...not as sure as I was that Morel's flyout was a pop up yesterday.

He would have been standing at second while the ball rattled around (even if just a little bit), the corner of the outfield. He would have been into third, standing. Hell, DUNN would have made it.

I certainly didn't get that impression, I saw him pull up 1/2 way and just jog into it lazily knowing he was meat.

Is it any wonder Thornton has started to become the usual Matt Thornton since he was put back in his 7th/8th inning role??

 

JUAN CAUGHT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good job by Thornton! Santos time

Insurance runs please.

Oh God, Hawk said a fly ball to Pierre was a can of corn before it was caught, and suddenly I panicked. Even Hawk added the "Hopefully".
