June 19, 201114 yr I'm glad John Danks isn't dead. I enjoy wins, as well as the fact that anytime Rios or Dunn does something well, they're immediately trending on Twitter due to how shocking such an event is. Edited June 19, 201114 yr by whitesoxfan101
June 19, 201114 yr Don't forget Lillibridge who had a bad day at the plate but possibly saved the game with his leaping attempt to catch a potential game changing HR by Melvin Mora on a grooved 3-0 pitch by Danks. Danks then proceeded to get out of the 2nd and 3rd 1 out situation by getting Blanco to pop out and striking out a good hitting pitcher.

How the hell is that not in the highlights on mlb.com?

June 19, 201114 yr It was a sick attempt though. He had it above the wall but the collision forced it out of his glove luckily back into play on the ground for an easy scoop and toss.

It was a key play in the game, but it's not worthy of top play or even highlight notation IMO since he didn't catch the ball. Edited June 19, 201114 yr by whitesoxfan101

June 19, 201114 yr Remember that older guy who got hit with a foul ball, behind the sox dugout? It was Konerko's dad. Apparently his brother slowed it down with his hand, has a bruised thumb. Weird game.
June 19, 201114 yr Rios with a home run and 2 hits. Nice Danks. Relievers. Paulie is amazing. It's not that hard, boys. Keep winning.

Ask and you shall receive: http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/mlb/gameda...33&c_id=cws This is Rios' 3 run homer, but if you click on "Mora's double to the wall" you will see the almost catch by the stealth elf.

June 19, 201114 yr This was a fun game to start watching from the 6th inning on. Should be interesting game today against the tomahawk thrower. Just so happy for Danks as you could tell how pumped he was after striking out owings

And then Danks pitching out of 2nd/3rd no one out like it was the White Sox hitting.

June 19, 201114 yr Saw the game on WGN. PK, Alexei and Rios looked great. That almost catch by Lillibridge was another big Lill highlight and I don't care if he caught it or not. That kid gives his all when out there. He saved the game most likely. Danks is pitching great and recovered nicely from that hard hit ball off his noggin. What a scary moment

That was crazy how he hardly seemed affected at all.
