Why does it seem that Juan Pierre is up so often?

Because he is.

It doesnt matter if the bunt fails or not, its the better play. Especially when you consider that Ozzie bunts when men are on first with no out all the time, it just seems to be a no brainer.

 

 

Now what Gardenhire?

 

Capps?

 

Burnett?

 

 

Anyone want to bet that Thornton, Sale or Santos would/will walk the first runner in the 10th? Stay with Crain?

 

Hughes, Nishioka and Repko, bottom of the order, which means they're the most dangerous in a Sox/Twins game.

They'll just walk Ramirez here.

If the Sox pull this one out, it definitely was despite Ozzie.

Even a flee on a monkey's ass would have bunted him over.

The one situation where a bunt makes sense and Ozzie doesn't do it. Yet he takes the bat out of Ramirez's hands and consequently Paulies hands in the eighth.

 

Fire this clown already.

Looking at the stats, the Twins pen sure looks awful.

I have no idea what this means or what you're trying to get at, but I'll assume that you're assuming the bunt would've been a successful one.

this game was managed so terribly, that it seemed like ozzie quit

Throw out every stat in the book when we play them.

They are, except against the lineup the Sox have.

That's because he probably has quit.

Right, because our brilliant manager pulled Paulie for a pinch runner.

Must have not seen the 4th inning yesterday

Didn't the 2005 Astros fire their manager mid-season?

Way to go Alexei!

WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

SCREW YOU OZZIE

Must have not seen the 4th inning yesterday

i did but it was one mistake(ohman), this was just awful. yay ozzie, they won

THIS IS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BEAT THE TWINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! f*** YEAH!

Eh, who cares?

Didn't the 2005 Astros fire their manager mid-season?

I believe it was because they were like 20 games under.

Wow, we won it despite Ozzie that time.

 

Alexei Ramirez, have yourself a game. At least we've solved the problem of who's our #2 hitter.

Horrible managing by both guys. How do you pitch to Ramirez with Omar on deck? lol. I'll take it.

YEAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Fitting that Crain finally breaks the Sox cherry vs. Minny.
