fathom

Rowand had a pretty good swing on that slider. His best chance is serving one to right field.

QUOTE(Wanne @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 01:11 AM) WTF?!?...you watchin a DBacks game over there or something?!? Damn! I totally forgot it's Hargrove. I remember talking about Melvin last wknd when the Cubs were playing the Dbacks. Thanks for pointing out my mistake.

QUOTE(ScottPodRulez22 @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 01:10 AM) you said that he should swing hard to hit a homer and i said why a gapper would score pods i changed that when he stole second and said that a base hit would score him. Well, of course. Don't pull a muscle patting yourself on the back

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 01:09 AM) If our 3-4-5 could get it going we would be in business. I have no complaints about our 4-5 hitters right now. It's our 8-9 that have hurt us, especially with our leadoff hitter being in a funk.

QUOTE(ScottPodRulez22 @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 01:08 AM) PODS was i not right fathom? about?

Iguchi is such a f***ing stud. Big hit all around, as it gives us all the momentum back. I'd just like to thank Bob Melvin for not bringing Jeff Nelson in.

QUOTE(Soxpranos @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 01:05 AM) To much pressure on Pods right now... everyone expects him to get on and score now.. damn offesne needs a jump start. Maybe time for Walker to go. When's the last time you saw a team with the best record in baseball fire a coach? I'd say Walker has more job security than any other hitting coach in baseball.

Iguchi might as well swing as hard as he can, and hope it's a homer.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 01:02 AM) How's the game going, fellas? I just got home, did sort of well playin' cards. Buehrle pitched well I saw. Offense pretty anemic outside the first inning, huh? Anemic is an understatement. We probably have two hard hit balls the entire game.

QUOTE(Soxpranos @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 01:02 AM) Ozuna is better than him... wasted trade. Not a waste, only cause we didn't get rid of much in Meaux.

Our 8-9 hitters just missed those! If this game ends in the 9th, our 6-7-8-9 hitters went 0-11 tonight.

I have a feeling Blum is going to find himself on the bench pretty soon in favor of Ozuna, besides in games where he's playing 3rd base.

Don't worry, we still have our powerful 8-9 leading off this inning.

Well, we still have the lead going into the 9th. This just seems like recent games though, where it just seemed like it was a matter of time before the other team caught up and tied it.

Thankfully we didn't get any more insurance runs in the 7th inning

Gotta love when Hawk blames the count, but the pitcher throws a hanging slider right down the plate.

Ugh, lucky he didn't hit that out of the park.

Beltre scares the s*** out of me here. He's been quiet tonight, but he's a clutch player.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 12:54 AM) Ugh, that ball knuckled like crazy. Oh yeah. I called it a miscue, but it was a tough play.

Oh boy, another defensive miscue in a big situation. Hopefully Politte can pitch over it.

No matter what happens the rest of this game, it's great to see Ozzie trust our bullpen.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 12:50 AM) All we got is 3 focking hits. You have got to be kidding me. A bunt, a bloop, and a homer. Who says we don't play smallball?

Wow, Politte is in. Good call by Ozzie...but I hope Buehrle is fine. Seems like he is.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 7, 2005 -> 12:46 AM) Politte + Hermie = Victory B) I'll be surprised if Buehrle doesn't start the 8th. He shouldn't be, with Bloomquist leading off the inning.

We sure were off in our predictions that our 6-7-8-9 tonight would suck!
