3 hits this inning but the base running blunder by Q = train wreck.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 08:12 PM) Gameday says Gavin Floyd left due to an injured foot/ankle. Stone said hip.

Rios 2/2 and 2 outs on the bases for the Sox.

Hip problems.

Runs this inning . If Dye and Rios can get hits runs are not far behind.

We're going to be out of this game soon if Gavin doesn't settle down.

3 hits the last 2 innings . 1 DP , 1 caught stealing. Can we just play the game without wasting hits especially from Dye and Rios.

That was dumb.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 07:40 PM) Rios strokes a single. Will he steal with us down, 3-0? Doubtful.

Wow Dye and Rios both 1/1 .

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 07:35 PM) CQ still has a lot to learn about hitting IMO. I am not just saying this cause Gavin is getting lit up. But he's 11-10. Why do we all assume our rotation is going to be unstoppable next year. Gavin is not Tom Seaver. Danks is not Sandy Koufax. They are good, but why are we assuming next year will be balls out excellence?? I remember during the spring people expected Gavin to regress. He hasn't been bad at all. Not good on the road but he's still young and hopefully that will come. He seems to go deeper into games than Danks does.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 07:31 PM) CQ and Lexi both need to play winter ball. Hope they do it. I don't care if CQ gets hurt. He needs work. CQ just needs to be healthy . He need rest and rehab not more playing in the offseason.

Alexei and JD with hits and the requisite DP by Q.

Lets go JD make it a bloop and a blast.

We got the Mariners right where we want them .

Sox go 1-2-3 in the 1st.

I mentioned a Rally Rios a few weeks ago , had a nice ring to it. Does it count if he's on the bench tonight ?

Marinade these chumps and this hyphenated pitcher.

I did good !

Hoping it happens. Change is needed.

1st Game thread for me in a long time. Go Sox !

I'll be there sec. 132 field level row B right field corner foul territory. Extremely tall, Sox cap , grey World Series t shirt and black shorts . Go Sox. I'll wave with a black mitt on my hand when something is hit there.

Beckham has dinner with Ernie Banks. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...,3885235.column
