Here we find ourselves in the all too familiar spot....cheering for someone to beat Detroit because we can't ever handle our own business.
Ummm....this game ain't over (although I'll still be rooting for someone to beat Detroit even after we win)
QUOTE (joejoedairy @ Aug 23, 2009 -> 02:33 PM)
unless. of course. we win?
We will win....on a walk off homer by Kotsay as he pinch hits in the bottom of the 9th
Not that I agree with the logic....but I'm guessing Linebrink was left in the game with hopes of saving the bullpen. With Garcia and Contreras going the next two nights, you have to figure the pen is going to get some work.
I'm not as upset by the HR as I am by the back-to-back walks.....you just can't give a team 2 free runners with a three run lead......thats a recipe for disaster.

3 pitches, 2 outs. Looking good so far *crosses fingers*
Bobby could go 5-6 innings at this rate (if needed)
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 16, 2009 -> 04:33 PM)
Is Dotel or Thornton coming out for the 9th?
ESPN.com says Andrew Bailey? I think they are wrong unless he was traded in the last 15 seconds

oh my God, I was cursing up a storm at this game before that homer.
I had faith we'd get it done......you have to remember we have 9 innings to score more than them.

Wrong, AJP didn't single. Try again!
Damn....and I thought I had a winner with my prediction. I guess thats the last time I call a 3 run shot for a White Sox winner in the 9th inning!
QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 11, 2009 -> 10:02 PM)
True...let's predict the 9th inning
Konerko walk
Wise pinch runs for Paulie
AJ gets signal to bunt....ignores it and singles to right field
Carlos flies out to left
Lexi goes yard for a 3 run shot
Getz walks
Pods grounds into fielders choice
Pods caught stealing to end the inning
Bobby comes in and strikes out the side on 9 pitches
Sox win 3-1
