We should still be leading

Two out runs are killing us this season.

 

Dammit.

 

 

Welp.....

Just like that Thornton and Ventura give away the lead

We're just not meant to win this one.

Not Thornton?

Not Thornton?

 

Ok yes. Him too.

Thanks for another bad outing Matt. Much appreciated.

When he leads the team in appearances it tells me RV really not very good knowing which reliever to use when.

Edited by Soxfest

I know the Sox have shown resiliency a lot of times this year, but I really hope they don't just have six lousy at bats the rest of the way.

 

Cmon Sox ... make all six outs count and try to take the lead one final time!!!

 

Man ... s***ty relief pitching tonight cept for Crain and he gave up the deep one that got stuck in the wall.

There's just no way the White Sox can go into 2013 with Matt Thornton on the team.

 

It's time...it came for Javy, Linebrink, Contreras, MacDougal, Linebrink.

 

He's just a shadow of his former self.

 

If nothing else, Ventura should never have tempted fate with the Oakland A's and Thornton in the same game twice.

Thornton's leash needs to be a lot shorter. After that deep fly ball he gave up to Reddick, Myers should have been put in. If two deep fly balls weren't an indication that he doesn't really have it tonight, I don't know what is.

Here's something that should piss everyone off. Gomes hits .288 vs LHP, and .212 vs RHP. Reddick hits .268 vs LHP and .251 vs RHP. So basically, there was no explanation in the world for why Thornton was in that inning.

Myers didn't exactly look like Mariano Rivera.

Yup. I thought Myers should have been in to begin with.

Which DeAza badly misplayed.

 

Crain's been a bit shaky at times but he usually doesn't break when bending.

2 guys on base were from MT. After the f***ing BOMB.

If this score holds, Thornton will be tied for 2nd on the team in losses and tied for the most losses of any reliever in the majors.

It's only worked every time, why try something different?

It's all bad seeing Myers giving up a hit to a .217 hitter in Inge, hopefully Gordon can match that and come up big.

Tank annoys me when he makes outs.

 

Yes! Hit by pitch. Man on first, one out.

Beckham with the angry head shrug

Damn Gordon pops up a lot

Paulie's so proud of his protege

LOL, Beckham popping up everything trying to be a HR hitter now. So sad
