Alexei Ramirez can't play in Toronto? Juan Uribe can't play anywhere...hasn't stopped him.

Boy, Crede has really come out of his shell. A couple of years ago, that would have been unthinkable for him to do something like that. Is it a coincidence that Crede really came out of his shell about the same time the White Sox picked up Pierzynski? I think not. Pierzynski's impact has been profound both on and off the field. Personally, I think it's great to have these kinds of personalities on a ballclub...it's endearing. It's a game. It should be fun...seems like these guys get that. This team must be a marketing dream. EDIT: It should be mentioned that in 2005, a similar "chemistry" and "culture" contributed to that team winning a lot of ballgames. I know it can't be quantified; but, following that team as manically as I did, there is no doubt that their "chemistry" and their "culture" was conducive to winning. Let's hope it helps in winning this season. If it's not, you can keep your Dirty Thirty.

After this game finishes, there will be a 15 minute intermission for the game scheduled to be played on that day. per PFB on the Score Interesting enough. As long as the White Sox are the home team, I have no complaints.

I don't know if there are any doubters still left. But, Carlos Quentin is the truth. I've had perhaps no greater enjoyment in the early-goings of the 2008 White Sox baseball season than watching the polar opposite approaches of Quentin and Swisher compared to the rest of the White Sox organization. It's been indescribably appropriate.

QUOTE (C_LEE45 @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 06:53 PM) do they start this game over,or play from the 12th? If you were aware of the terminology...the game was SUSPENDED That means, it will be played from the 12th. However, I could see how you were misled given the incorrectly edited title.

QUOTE (WSoxMatt @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 06:44 PM) Should change the title of the thread to GAME SUSPENDED....Game postponed means it will not be played Yup, that's what I had it as. It was changed by someone.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 05:38 PM) They just said they suspended the game on MASN. Yup. New thread.

The game has been suspended. No word on when it will be completed. What a hilariously entertaining game.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 05:34 PM) So now what? I mean its just going to keep raining, I think. What happens if they can't get this game in? Would it resume in the 12th if it's played at another date? I don't believe Baltimore comes here again. They will complete this game if they have to stay till midnight.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 05:28 PM) I'm sure there's a lot that will disagree with me, and I'm probably wrong....but I don't think Thome is a winning baseball player. ...tell that to his bust in Cooperstown.

If there are any other umpires out there, how many games have you umped in April that go this exact way? Anything that can happen, will. You get one out away and have one foot back in your car, and then something f***ing ridiculous and Junior finds a way to extend the game another grueling hour. hahah

If the O's lose this game, they better just call-in the rest of the season. I always just assumed the Orioles organization was a rudder-less ship. But, if they manage to lose this game, they might just be cursed.

QUOTE (the People's Champ @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 05:19 PM) Where are all the Uribe haters now? Present.

QUOTE (hammerhead johnson @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 05:17 PM) LOL ^^^ Hammer's the f***ing mang.

URIBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'S AN OFFENSIVE JUGGERNAUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 05:14 PM) HOW THE f*** CAN ANYONE BLAME OZZIE RIGHT NOW!?!?!?? SWISH AND BA CANT GET BUNTS DOWN? YEAH, f*** YOU OZZIE! Some of you are f***ing ridiculous. It was a fantastic call and a brilliant idea. While I appreciate your fervor, and your opinion, allow me to play devil's advocate. One could make a very compelling argument that an intelligible manager does not call for bunts from two players that notoriously could not get bunts down. You see how that works? It's a two-way street.

This is a team loss. The offense left a Greyhound bus in scoring position, the closer s*** the bed, and a bullpen arm ultimately gives up the winning run. Team loss. Gotta win both in Minn.

So, the baseball gods were paying attention. You don't win the AL Central losing games like this. This game was in their back pocket. f***. See you in the Twin Cities.

I encourage everyone to remember the two blown Orioles games when this team loses the division by two games. We've had the rain delay. Put the tarp back on. Suck delay.

Awesome. f***ing brilliant. Anderson is helpless at the plate, Ozzie. He's absolutely helpless. ...and you put the squeeze on. Nice. The White Sox need to lose this game 25-2.

I don't think I've ever see Credepopsup move a man over at a critical period. Atta' boy Joe. For me, that's just as impressive as Quentin's hit.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 06:02 PM) Oh Quentin! I really would rather see Crede try to hit it to right field instead of bunting. ^^^^^^ This. It's not second guessing if we get on record now.

...so, this Quentin fellow can play some baseball.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Apr 28, 2008 -> 04:59 PM) everyone should just bunt - old school dead ball stuff. No worries. Uribe ends the game with some walk-off defense.

Now, if this team ends up losing this game...
