Dye missed two hangers before swinging through a fastball. The first four innings did not really happen did they.

QUOTE (tommy @ May 5, 2009 -> 08:39 PM) Finish it here Sox. Pods hasn't been a terrible so far, I realize he doesn't belong in CF but hes doing ok He seems more comfortable in center than left and obviously right

Well tomorrow's excuse will be the late night plane ride for why Galarraga throws a two hitter. Now we will get to hear how good of a pitcher Wright is from Hawkeroo.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 5, 2009 -> 08:35 PM) Let's hope Dye's guarding the RF line. Any XBH game over anyway

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ May 5, 2009 -> 08:33 PM) If he says one word there, he's tossed for arguing balls and strikes. Losing your manager is not a good thing in an extra inning game. He can manage from the tunnel they don't escort him from the park. The game ain't over but the approach at the plate is sickening.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 5, 2009 -> 08:31 PM) OMG, that was right down the plate. Keep sitting on your ass though Ozzie. It seems like he does not care.........

Are over half of Crisp's RBI against the Sox I know half of his HR are....I still can't get over how perfect he would be with the Sox. Wow he took a 3-1 pitch just because and he walks again.....amazing...

QUOTE (fathom @ May 5, 2009 -> 08:27 PM) At this rate, the game threads will have 200 posts max come July and these games won't bug you too much by then. There's just something terrible missing from the team this season. heart????? almost looks like they knew based on wise starting in center that they never really had been given the tools to compete at a high level. Nice play Getz

Really poor team effort from all chicago teams today......at least the cub never even really gave themselves a chance this afternoon

god wright made them look bad except for AJ

Quentin is not hitting much better than Ramirez....except he is getting hit by pitches. I don't think the Royals really fear any Sox hitter right now

QUOTE (fathom @ May 5, 2009 -> 08:18 PM) They really should IBB Quentin here. They like Thome more than this board does.

A walk is bad here.

Wright is making the Sox look stupid on that slider.

Guillen has the pieces to Ph and other than the 3 through 7 they all shoud have been hit for at one time or another. Getz is wilting in front of our eyes. I think it is time to give Nix a few starts the last two AB's rival Ramirez'

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 5, 2009 -> 08:11 PM) ESPN Gamecast has had numerous pitches (such as Carassco's second to Callaspo) right down the cock called for balls. Is this correct? neitehr of the first two were even close. Stone and Harrelson praising the work of home plate umpire Jerry Crawford....

great job coming back from 2-0

nice pitch

I smell a homer this inning.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 5, 2009 -> 08:03 PM) That was one of the worst ABs I've ever seen. Ozzie has got to start using Betemit in PH situations for Alexei against RHP. Wilson Betemit oughta just leave the team at this point again with the swinging at pitches hat need not be swung at This game will be over shortly The offense looks like s*** when they score 7 runs amazing

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ May 5, 2009 -> 07:12 PM) Thome .221 Alexei .216 I've never seen Thome lay a bunt down wow is all I can think of to say. One guy is a HOF'er the other may not hit 50 career home run you can not be serious

QUOTE (fathom @ May 5, 2009 -> 07:10 PM) Getz won't get a lot of playing time against LHP with an AB like that. That was a horrendous at bat. They are going to lose this game. The Sox need to stop swinging at pitches they can not do anything with. I have been saying for the last two years that they swing at pitches they can do nothing with when they are ahead in the count. You don't need ot swing at every strike.

QUOTE (ChiSox420* @ May 5, 2009 -> 07:09 PM) How did Pods get a hit without scoring AJ? infield hit off pitcher Pods beat it out. Real bad ab by Getz there.

Getz and Lexi looking really bad against MAhay

Just let pods swing away.
