When the f*** will Ozzie learn that Uribe is not a good baserunner? This game has been sickening in terms of intelligent play today.

Uribe slipped there also. They need to delay this game and to something about it.

El Duque is painful to watch when he pitches right now. Every game seems the same, and it's just a matter of whether or not the opposition can get a hit with RISP.

QUOTE(quickman @ May 7, 2005 -> 12:28 AM) our offense can make these guys look like great pitchers. This is the best our offense has looked all year, in my opinion. We've had more line drives this game than we had in about a week. 2 bonehead running plays have cost us a few runs.

That could have been a much bigger inning. We need to get our heads out of our asses.

JimH.....will you agree with me Uribe would have easily beat that throw if he had been running normal?

Uribe thought he had a hit, so he started rounding the base. Hudson made a good play, and got him out at 1b when Uribe slid feet first. Uribe would have easily beat it if he just ran through the base.

Wow, this is ridiculous right now. That was one of the dumbest things I've ever seen.

Crede is so good when he takes a nice level swing. Unfortunately, one can now argue that Timo has cost us 2 runs (one on offense, one on defense).

QUOTE(JimH @ May 6, 2005 -> 11:57 PM) Timo made the right play, sorry for all the haters. He was running away from making a good throw home, that's not a bad play at all to try and throw to 2nd base. It just didn't work out. I respectfully disagree. His decision to throw to 2nd base allowed Zaun to walk home. Zaun would have had no chance to score if Timo threw that ball home (like he's supposed to do ). All I know is if Carlos Lee did that, people would freak out. That was a very shallow liner that he caught.

f***ing Timo! What the hell is he doing? Ozzie should bench his ass for those two stupid plays.

El Duque isn't going to last 4 innings if he keeps pitching this way. Every pitch is right over the heart of the plate.

El Duque = not locating anything right now. Blue Jays have a lot of lefties in the order, which takes away his slider.

One more major slip, and there's going to be a delay. This is the same dome where there was a rain delay.

How come our hitters never jump on a 3-1 pitch? It seems like every homer we've given up lately has been in a similar count.

Simply terrible baserunning by Timo there. That ball was a pretty routine play by Hudson.

Amazing that we won this game.

Shingo can't come close to throwing an offspeed pitch over the plate right now.

Huge catch by Rowand out there!

Shingo's in

2 runs without a hit that inning for the Sox. Is Contreras going to start the 9th?

Hairston easily should have caught Lee's blooper.

HAHA! Cubs lose on a blooper by Lee.

Interesting decision to use Burke instead of Widger there. Widger's had enough quality AB lately to prove to me he's a threat at the plate.
