Thanks. Yahoo says fielding error, not throwing error, so I was confused

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 12:25 PM) Nice break on a tough play for Rios. What happened? Yahoo is confusing me

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 12:22 PM) A Konerko infield single? What will they think of next. That's you get a 16,000.....oh, never mind

This game might be over by 1:30

2-0 Cleveland, Scherzer keeps sucking it up

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 10:42 AM) Why don't we have any pitchers in our organization "champing at the bit" to pitch against the Twins...saying they look forward to the challenge of beating them? Who actually want to have their starts or order in the rotation changed around specifically so they can face Minnie? Should Phil Humber be asking to pitch on 3 days rest today? Should he say "Forget Mark Buehrle, I should be pitching today cause I'm better than him!" I'm sure they do look forward to attempting to beat their divsion rival, but you can't step on the toes of your rotation mates like that.

QUOTE (Special K @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 10:02 AM) I understand that you are trying to research and prove me wrong, but what I said is not to be taken as fact. I was trying to make a point about how frustrating it is that the Sox are that bad at Minnesota. The Pirates are the worst team in baseball over the past decade, the Sox shouldn't even be in the same discussion as them. They need to figure it out, b/c no team will ever win a division playing that poorly against a division rival on the road. Well you guaranteed that no team had a worse road record vs a division rival, so it sounded like a fact to me. But I do understand your point, the Sox suck against Minnesota, it's brought up every time they play and it will keep on being mentioned until they finally start beating them, hopefully.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:59 AM) Seriously? That seems just unfathomable You are right, I added wrong. They were 3-33 (.083) against them. That includes a 22-game losing streak in Milwaukee from 2007-2010.

QUOTE (Special K @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:42 AM) That was meant to mean between division rivals. Since 2007, the Pirates are 2-34 (.056) at Miller Park

QUOTE (Special K @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:34 AM) This has nothing to do with the ball park. The Twins simply own us at home, and always will. I guarantee there's not a team in baseball with a worse record at another team's park than the Sox at Minnesota in the past couple of years. I'd venture to guess the O's have a better record at Yankee stadium in this timeframe. Bottom line, this is pathetic. Unfortunately, I don't think it's possible to fix. Since 2007, the Twins are 3-14 at Yankee Stadium and that does not include their 0-3 record there in the postseason.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 16, 2011 -> 09:09 AM) I wouldn't be opposed to moving Dunn up to 5 at this point. Like

It makes sense that they added that sentence. It just sounds like a drunken Canadian's whiny rambling "Woe is Me". Meh. Grantland can do better than that.

I hope Edwin Jackson hits a home run against him

Congrats zenryan! You don't seem to be a Celtics/Pats/RedSox fan either, so I can appreciate it even more for you. This rioting in Vancouver is something else, what a bunch of crazy Canadian bastards!

If he costs no money and he doesn't take up a spot on the 25-man, sign me up.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 10:23 PM) I'm hardly a hockey fan, but can someone explain to me why they hate him? I may be wrong but I think it has to do with Quebec & Winnipeg having their teams moved to Phoenix & Denver & all the expansion teams opening in SouthEast US instead of Canada.

Quick update from Vancouver only a half hour after the game

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 01:07 PM) Picking the Bruins to beat San Jose in the final. (Although I can see Montreal knocking Boston out in the 1st round.) I should have taken this prediction to Vegas. The Canucks fans in the arena were very respectable, booing Bettman, but cheering on all of the Bruins. The fans on the street? Wow. There is already a car deeply engulfed in flames outside the stadium. Crazy bastards.

QUOTE (Chi Town Sox @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 03:28 PM) English may be a good one, we are not looking for any areas in particular, just something that would be good for a party of around 40 people English could work well just cause it's pretty big so there's a ton of space for that many people.

QUOTE (Chi Town Sox @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 03:05 PM) We knew that Tupac was dead but now a man that shot him that night stepped forward!! http://www.xxlmag.com/news/2011/06/convict...james-rosemond/ That guy just shot and robbed him in 94. That's not the night he was murdered in 96.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 03:21 PM) And his ego takes up the other half. Well his wallet sure as hell won't take up much space anymore

It's probably cause I'm old now, but Bull & Bear was one of the worst bars I've ever been to.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 03:04 PM) I think he was on Toronto last year. Hawk had a 9 inning erection every game we played them discussing how strong he was. I can't say I remember him. Either way, Wikipedis says he's now in Japan after 217 MLB career at-bats. Sounds exactly like a player Hawk would fall in love with.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 02:49 PM) So who are the players that Hawk seems to have a love for even though they're not exactly all star players? I can think of the following: - Carlos Gomez (Team Captain) - Kurt Suzuki - Randy Ruiz - Brandon Inge - Matt Harrison Who the heck is that?
