Wow. Swinging on a 3-0 not named Dunn or Konerko? I like that aggressive managing by Robin. I actually agree with Hawk.

Ok. Were you a cheerleader in high school?

I sure was. Listen, either take my warning, or take some time off. I can't make the warning clearer (and it isn't this post, rather your collective work of posts that I'm talking about). My job is to moderate this place, and your posts in today's game thread have been a detriment. Feel free to complain, but the way you've acted in this thread, its been ridiculous.

Come on Sale

Leadoff double for Abreu.

End an inning on a nice play, leadoff double right?

They're making really good contact against Sale. Really awful pitch there, and KC will likely have man on 3rd, 1 out

Trouble brewing.

I realize the pitch count isn't bad, but we are watching Sale's innings too. He should never really be going past 7 innings at this point.

 

Note: I'm not faulting or blaming Ventura for the double. Rather, Sox need to be protecting Sale.

Sorry Hawk, I'd rather have my 4 home runs in August hitter taking 3-0, especially when he has 14 steals this year

Yeah, I just think hawk has about as much confidence as most of us in our 7-8-9 hitters to get him in there

bullpen

I think they're taking the give him extra day off or two approach.

 

Now corners, nobody out.

 

 

It's beyond time to pull Sale. After a few weeks off, it seems like we're abusing him here.

Detroit smokes KC.....................Sox play down to KC all the time.

Come on Sale. Pitch out of it Kid. You got this.

We really need the K

ALEXEi! big big out.

Nice catch by Alexei, too bad KC didn't bunt with Getz.

There is one kid. Roll one up right here. You got this. Let's go!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do we have anyone on the pen who throws a lot of ground balls?

Watch the squeeze here

Crain was warming FWIW.
