Is this the beginning of the end for now of Viciedo playing against RH'ers?

No way, it's a DH so everyone's going to start today probably.

1-0 Sox

Leadoff double by DeAza (was it?), stolen third on a bad pickoff attempt and Lillibridge sac fly score White Sox first run.

I'm all for the Sox not attempting to bunt runners from 2nd to 3rd anymore...I hated it when they did it Saturday in the 9th inning as well...playing for the tie on the road...didn't end up mattering because of the Donkey homer, but I didn't like nevertheless.

 

I think they give the hitter the option to either bunt or hit the ball to the right side to get the runner over, whatever the hitter is most comfortable doing.

So nice to have a leadoff hitter that can actually get an extra-base hit

Strike two to Dunn was bogus.

I agree with you on Lilli's bunt attempt today. It was the call on Saturday though...with this team, we need all the outs we can get, and playing for one in the American league is gonna get you beat. Not to mention playing for a tie in Detroit in the ninth with our bullpen in the state that it's in.

Double there got his OBP up above .350 and his OPS above .800, both quite nice places.

"Well there's your run, that's what the White sox have told Philip Humber" -Farmer

 

That kind of humor doesn't work as it was intended to with this team.

If he produces, I think we see more of Fukudome at the expense of Viciedo for the time being. Viciedo has not hit RH'ers.

Good start for Philip. 1-2-3.

I hear ya.

Fukudome, of course, is 5/27 against RHP.

I did not realize he was that bad.

Hawk says he has smoked everything right at someone.

Strike two to Dunn was bogus.

At least he kept his streak alive and has now doubled the previous record to begin the season.

Viciedo has had a difficult time making contact.

It's amazing just how badly the Sox pitchers pay for mistakes, but the Sox hitters constantly miss them. Rios got an absolute meatball there and flew out to shallow center.

Dunn can have a 162 game strikeout streak if he wants to keep pace to 50 dingers, I don't give a s***

That's what some on here say about Rios and his 6/40 he has going...Fukudome has hit the ball way harder than Rios has over the past couple of weeks IMHO...and he constantly has good AB's. In a lot less chances of course.

Hafner...jesus. What is that? 3 of his 4 homers this year against the Sox?

Humber throwing beach balls down the middle.

Amazing how the indians were struggling to hit homers and the Sox righted that wrong from them last week.

Sox right alot of teams wrongs it seems like.

Well we don't get the perfect game Phil Humber today.
