The Game talks about his Sox hat a lot, lol.

I want my time back.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 11:09 PM) Strike zone sure has gotten larger. The umpire wants to go home.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 11:06 PM) Well, the bunt worked perfectly for Cleveland cause they have some professional hitters who CAME THROUGH in the clutch. Put the blame where it lies: Paulie and Jones couldn't get a f***ing bloop hit to win it. Konerko hit the s*** out of the ball, but right at Sizemore. Had Ozzie decided to run Pierre and had Pierre succeeded, a bunt by Beckham would have been fine. And then Konerko's line drive scores Pierre. We would all be happy right now.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 11:05 PM) 8 hits in 19 innings against the Indians pitching staff. Stop. So we have a bad offense and then our manager makes it worse. Ozzie isn't the whole problem, but the fact that he's supposed to be helping the team when he's clearly not is pissing me off.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 11:02 PM) I like how the main excuse is Beckham bunting twice. We've scored 3 runs in back to back games against the f***ing Indians. And bunting isn't going to help your offense. That's two outs we shouldn't have given up.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 11:00 PM) Jones steals bases and goes 1st to 3rd on singles. he's fast enough. But he's not Choo, Valbeuna, or Sizemore fast.

How did that one not get out of here?

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:59 PM) I think Hafner does not score if Rios was playing RF on that double. Probably.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:58 PM) Pierre, Beckham, Jones/Kotsay, Rios, Ramirez? That's 5 spots that can genuinely run. Quentin can score from 1st on a double while healthy. I have no clue on Teahen. Konerko and Pierzynski are slow, but come on, Hafner? Redmond/The other guy? Neither Jones and Kotsay are fast.

Are some people chanting Grady SizeLESS? LOL.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:57 PM) Speed and defense. That is how to get a big hit. It would be great if we used our speed and played good defense. That's why we're going to lose this game.

There's game. Mark Teahen, why did you bother to try?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:55 PM) To me, it was the exact same situation. Gordon Beckham isn't Mickey Mantle (yet) and Juan Pierre isn't Rickey Henderson. And Lou Marson isn't even Gordon Beckham.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:53 PM) Somebody said Manny Acta wouldn't bunt. The exact f***ing same thing. All managers bunt in that situation. Believe it. Pierre is faster than Valbuena. And you have freaking Lou Marson up.

Mark Teahen needs to take some Physics classes and learn about angular momentum.

They bunt twice, they have a guy at second.

Teahen should have just let that go foul.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:48 PM) Sadly, on paper, it isn't. Which is good because they'll revert to being mediocre sooner or later.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:45 PM) Their bullpen has made us look awful this series. And their bullpen is teh suck.

The bottom of our lineup is filled with automatic outs.

We're running out of arms. Quickly offense, win it somehow.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:38 PM) Great piece of hitting by Peralta. That's twice now.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:29 PM) It didn't work, so it's the wrong move. I still think it's on the players more than Oz but since it didn't work, Oz gets an F for the move. Even if it worked, it would have been a bad move. You never give up an out when you have a guy who has a 75-80% chance of stealing a base. That's like making a guy who's hitting .850 bunt.

QUOTE (nastymasty21 @ Apr 8, 2010 -> 10:30 PM) the problem with this ozzie ball is no one is capable of getting 2 out hits Our team sucks at that.
