Whoop de doo, another Sox game.

Whoopdwhoop 'em!!

Noticed the game thread was only up to 7 pages.

 

Not unusual for a Sat night game...those three losses in a row (how many times has THAT happened this year?) really took the remaining starch out of the fanbase.

 

They'll have to get to 2 1/2 or 2 GB again for anyone to START to believe in them again. (That, or the opportunity to jump on the teetering, mostly due to injuries, Viciedo bandwagon).

 

At least they had an attendance of 30,000+ for a change on a Friday night.

 

Of course, the Rangers were in the World Series last year, that helps a lot.

Rios is batting 4th today.

LOL

Come on, boys, have to win series.

Let's win it

1. JP LF 2. Lilli 1B 3. PK DH 4. Rios CF 5. Ramirez SS 6. Flowers C 7.De Aza RF 8. Morel 3B 9. Beckham 2B

 

That is a pathetic lineup.

 

I would probably go with JP, De Aza, Ramirez, PK, Flowers, Lilli, Morel, Rios, Beckham.

 

Or I would just forfeit the game. I dunno if I can actually watch a game where Rios bats 4th. Does Ozzie not understand what a 4th hitter does? Is this like him acting out because he always wanted to bat 4th when he was playing? Like a drummer who always wanted to be a lead singer & then later in life he starts managing a band and forces everyone to let the drummer sing a few songs even though he sucks?

 

I think JR should make Soxtalk the manager by committee for the rest of the season.

This is a pathetic lineup, and precisely why we are hovering around .500

 

That said, let's find a way to get some runs today and shut em down.

DET threatening. Yes, I'm still scoreboard watching.

2-0 Kitties

Jimenez a big fat bust so far for tribe.

Delmon Young crushes a ball to make it a 5-0 Kitty cat lead.

In two years, Pomeranz will be a better starter than Jimenez. Jimenez just looks awful every time I watch him this season.

Jiminez still has it in him to tear the league apart, but we haven't seen that version of him since about the all star break last year.

That's 3/4 bad starts for Jimenez.

 

The one good start did come against DET...but that trade looks to be disastrous, thankfully they didn't give up Kipnis.

 

Our line-up today would be outgunned by most AAA and AA ones.

Very small crowd today

Lillibridge obviously looking for an offspeed pitch, because Holland threw all his fastballs right down the plate.

Haha, gotta love taking fastballs right down the plate.

Nice. Swing at the only pitch not a strike. Fidel ball.

Good curveball for Gavin so far today

Augh Brent!

Typical White Sox baseball.

 

Lillibridge playing out of position and trying to make the throw to 2B before he even caught the ball...

 

What else is new?

 

This has been a season defined by paper cuts that have slowly bled us to death as a team.

Nice work on Moreland battery.

Yowza on that breaking ball
