Hey look. There's a familiar ex-Sox prospect.

Morel!

He shot one to right field nicely in his first at bat, as he had better balance at the plate. The best thing that could happen for Viciedo is to hit a homer to right field. Maybe he changed his mechanics a little after hitting two homers during the early part of the season to left center?

 

Beautiful double.

Should we bunt him to third?

Brent turned on one and nailed it to left.

 

Nice to see. We need him this year.

 

First swing like that of the season according to DJ.

Beckham needs to bunt.

Morel turning and burning on that pitch. Nice to see.

I'm already so in love with this team it's scary.

Gordon attempting a bunt!! We are entering a new era with him right now

I'll take it!

Can we classify this as a real sign of life from Morel? If we only have to replace one of Morel/Beckham that'd be great.

Do you bring JFP out for the 9th? Or hand the ball to Santiago? I know what Peavy wants. Does Robin give it to him?

 

Gotta bring him out. Pitch count is OK and he's Jake f***ing Peavy who demands the ball til his arm falls off

Young gunz!

Wow, look at those 8-9 studs!

YAY, at least all three batters at the bottom of the order have hits now.

 

Broken bat single from Gordon, 2nd RBI.

 

 

Becks hey! Welcome to the game.

It'd sure be something if Gordon remembered how to hit like that long term.

Can we classify this as a real sign of life from Morel? If we only have to replace one of Morel/Beckham that'd be great.

 

3 hard hits balls by Morel tonight...I give Ventura a lot of credit for making the change

The Morel-Beckham show in this inning should help both their confidence.

Nice at bats.

ADA doesnt seem to really care about bunting

Peavy at 96 pitches, only 7 last inning. Only has faced 27 total batters.

 

Another very good game out of DeAza...get Viciedo going, and it's a nice combination of speed and power out there.

Are Sox fans convinced DeAza is special?

I think he's damn good. Deserving of 500-580 at bats.

Oakland usually a house of horrors.

White Sox are trying to single handedly undo the badness of the Nick Swisher trade

Just score 3 more runs...then can bring Peavy out without questioning it.

Joe McEwing wrote something on a piece of paper , ran down and handed it to Alexei
