Choke fest all the way around on this one. Terrible managing and coaching. Sox now lose 4 of 5 since the 7 game win streak.

McEwing to bench coach, do it now!!!

 

 

We probably should have traded Shark, but I'm not going to cry over the loss of a couple B prospects.

Absolutely the game where you know it ain't happening this season.

 

Terrible.

 

If McEwing sent him all the way, worst call I've ever seen.

are you surprised?

I'm surprised they drew that well.

He closed in NY. He has it between the ears.

 

He's just not been sharp with all his pitches at the same time, unfortunately.

 

If he was truly that great they wouldn't have let him go.. they are the Yankees they can afford it and stuff

I'm sure Hahn would have gotten some gems for him

Pretty indefensible decision to send him home, but McEwing was on an absolute roll lately.

 

I'm more angry about the constant f***ups of Zach Duke and the fact we keep seeing him out there in key situations

Whatever happened to "tie at home win on the road"? Absolutely no reason to send him on a ball that didn't get very deep into the outfield with the centerfielder racing in and with all the momentum in his favor.

Put McEwing on waivers

If the power struggle is true, Hahn must be laughing his ass off to KW, who wanted to buy.

If you were on the pro-buy camp, wouldn't you just say that swapping Avi for [good hitter] would win you this game?

That last at bat probably would have got him home...just stupid. Like I said I hope Sale demands a trade.

I can't believe I witnessed a grown man, in baseball his whole life, send a runner on a base hit with nobody out on a play in which the outfielder had the ball about the time Lexi took one step past third base.

 

It seems like we have the worst 3B coaches the last few seasons. Good god, how can that man live with himself? How could anybody with baseball knowledge send Lexi there? He must apologize to the team and the city. I mean if it made even a smidgen of sense! How can you send Lexi there?? It's impossible.

Hahn should laugh all the way to the unemployment office.

That's the dumbest send I have ever seen

 

If I still yelled at the TV I'd be yelling at that one. What the hell is wrong with 1st and 3rd and no outs ? Maybe it was lets try to get LaRoche an RBI night.

I hate the whole coaching staff. Get rid of these pieces of s***.

Should be 3-1 against Tampa and instead we're 0-4. f***.

If you flip the W-L record against the NL in 2007, it wouldn't have been as abysmal of a year as it ended up being, despite the fact that watching that team for more than a few innings at a time would make your eyes bleed.

Having a competent defensive OF probably would have saved us 2 runs today.

There were posters here who wanted Thompson in just for defensive reasons. He could've went 0 for this game and still had the defensive value.

Avi lost the game with his defense

How could he if the response to that would be "the players I wanted would've won us the game" :P

Well, Baltimore's winning as well...although the Angels are playing so badly they're putting themselves back in the elimination bracket.

 

This game is a perfect illustration of why we should have dealt Shark.

 

Coaching decisions right and left, bad defense, bullpen giving up key late runs right and left whenever the Sox had the momentum.

This is such a blinding reality.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Aug 4, 2015 -> 03:20 AM)
Let's be real... McEwing won't/shouldnt' be fired over this.

He just cost the White Sox any chance of getting the wild card. He MUST be fired. I mean if he uses 1/10th of his brainpower he does not send Lexi there. He just has to go.

Total choke. I was fooled by the road trip. I thought we'd steal a WC. Buffoon-ball.

There's never been a worse send. I mean get your head out of your ass. You are a coach. You don't let emotions get to you. You cannot let the runner try to score with nobody out. The White Sox would have tied the game minimum. They've completely tanked since winning seven in a row. Just unbelievable.
