Bob Sacamano Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 QUOTE (flavum @ Apr 6, 2017 -> 04:42 PM) It was warmer than expected. It was less windy than expected. It worked out ok. Now I want to see Quintana pitch well on Sunday. Exactly why you don't send a team away 2 days before the day of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Well, holy s***. If Renteria keeps this up, I will be his biggest fan. We NEVER (OK rarely) won blowouts in the Robin era. Nice to see a blowout so early in Renteria's era on the south side. Obviously all teams will win at least 55 games, so no big deal today, but again, a blowout?? In the Cell? Beautiful. I am thoroughly negative most of the time, but I will give credit where it's due. The team showed life today which it rarely to never did under Robin. p.s. That squeeze bunt was a good idea but it was a lousy bunt. Shoulda been out at home. I do like Stoney's take, however, that if you put pressure on the other team's defense more often than not they'll mess up. It worked so I'm happy but it was a lousy bunt.

I don't remember them. Although they were so bad after that I may have forgotten. Robin was a joke. It's going to take a while to get used to having a real manager if indeed Renteria is one.

Book it!!!!!! http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/schedule/s...le.jsp?c_id=cws Winning by 5 or more runs is considered a blow out, so saying "no other victory was by more than 6 runs" is still saying "they won the game by the same margin as two 3-run homers." If you lose 7-2, you got the s*** kicked out of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
