Rauch just doesn't have the fastball to keep hitters honest with his offspeed pitches. KW needs to go get a 5th starter.

Rauch looking like batting practice right now.

Sox have definitely had some good pitches to hit off of Sele. Harris is such a better hitter when he tries to pull the ball.

Great job KC. Let's go up by 3 games!

Not real sure I would have sent home the runner w/Vlad on deck there. However, another break for the Sox today. Let's get some runs here.

Konerko is in a groove at the plate. I've noticed that he has more of a leg kick than he used to. Good for him for trying something different.

Wow, thank you. We'll take it!

Timo is so bad in CF. He should have run to a spot to try and catch that.

Rauch looked pretty solid that inning. Vlad's at-bat was ridiculous in terms of his plate coverage. Let's hope Rauch continues to mix up his pitches and throw strikes.

Did we have anyone to run for Konerko there?

Why Mike Jackson, why? He's the worst reliever on the Sox. Why not Shingo? Jackson no longer has his good slider, so he's nothing special vs righties.

Ozzie should have had Willie try a squeeze before. With Willie not being a true fly ball hitter, and the Angels having excellent arms in the outfield, a bunt might have been the Sox best chance.

Not a well-managed game by Ozzie tonight. He should have not had SS start the inning against M. Young. Also, he should have ph for Jose in the 6th. Jose has no prayer of hitting Rogers.

Crede might want to wake up over at 3b. I thought he should have gone home to get Hunter on that chopper by Cuddyer in the first inning instead of trying to turn a DP.

KW's inability to get a 5th starter continues to haunt this team.
