Nice catch by Wise!

19 balls out of first 46 pitches.

 

Is going to have to pitch MUCH more efficiently to get through 6. But at least it's still 0-0.

 

 

Be shocked if Alexei or Beckham don't try to bunt here.

46 pitches in 2 innings is bad f***ing news for us.

I'm watching this on the Tigers network on MLB. Excellent camera work, announcers keep you focused on the game, they post interesting stats about players on both teams. It's real top notch and probably superior to ESPN.

Play this game like a playoff game. If he gives you 5 good innings, you hope the pen can win it for you.

3 pitches, 2 weak outs. No idea why they keep playing Beckham. Way to try and bunt guys!!

Scherzer and Verlander 1st and 2nd in the majors in K's.

 

At one point, Liriano was tops in K's per 9 IP.

Let's swing at the first pitch.

Another quality Gordon AB

I can't recall the last time the Sox did this. Maybe the last two weeks of 05.

 

Gordon looks awful as usual. With expanded rosters he should sit a lot against righties. Hes an auto out now.

Good AB by Wise, as he'll probably try and steal here. So far, lefties have looked good against Scherzer and righties have had no prayer.

The problem is if Liriano only goes 5, that means we see Humber or the call-ups for a couple of innings. Either of those options against Cabrera/Fielder scares the s*** of me.

 

Also, seems like tonight would have been a great time to play Danks for Viciedo.

White Sox have the easiest schedule remaining statistically in the entire AL.

 

That's a change from previous seasons down the stretch.

Did any pitchers actually get called up?

That's because Cleveland, Minny, and KC are pretty bad on paper.

Peralta is horrible at SS.

 

Youk just didn't have a chance because he missed the bag there and couldn't get back.

Nothing Youk could do there. Another fail with RISP, with Youk now 0 for his last 14.

Put the ball in play and wait for a Tiger's mistake.

Which means Tigers have to have one of the easiest as well because only different team they play the rest of the way is Oakland

OF against righties starting sunday needs to be Wise/de aza/rios.

Danks' season is trending like Flowers last year.

 

Started hot, then fading.

 

Have no belief whatsover that Jordan Danks would light up Max Scherzer. None.

Tough inning coming up for Liriano.

OF against righties starting sunday needs to be Wise/de aza/rios.

 

Absolutely, no doubt about it. Viciedo hitting about .225 vs RHP this year.
