The Sir Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 What an embarrassing 3-4-5 sequence right there. I'd show emotion about it, but the SoxTalk police might give me a talking to. Whatever. These pitiful fucks make me excited for the damn conference call I gotta participate in right now. Adios! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted April 17, 2019 Author Share Posted April 17, 2019 If only Ricky was on the bench he could have clapped and our hitters would have known not to swing at balls in the dirt but alas we only had joe mcewing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 So let me get this straight. We had the following things happen and did not score a single fucking run: Leury walks on five pitches Palka gets his first hit of the season A wild pitch advances the runners to 2nd & 3rd Abreu starts his at-bat 3-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Times have changed, players need to show emotion. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The NHL has this problem as well. Part of the reason the NBA is so popular is because players can talk shit, have feuds, etc. It straddles the line between an actual sport and the WWE.

"Definitely just swing at everything, expand your strike zone as much as possible because you never know, maybe you'll make contact" Yes im sure the coaches are telling them to swing at balls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fail miserably Ad funny thing is ( or not so funny) is that Abreu AB KC was giving him the intentional/unintentional walk and Jose said Nah I don't want it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no "right way" to play baseball, and fetishizing Victorian ideals of masculinity in a sport in 2019 is going to do nothing but decrease its popularity 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GradMc Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) No Sox fan should overly surprised. Their approach in situations like this is piss poor. They're into high testosterone hero ball. Homer or bust. Two ground ball OUTS to right side and they have the lead. When they start doing that is when this team turns the corner. It may just be those type of difference makers just ain't on this team yet. And with this owner I wonder if they'll ever be.

The only thing I remember about Carlos Gomez is he would always swing as hard as he could, and on a whiff you could safely bet the over that he would do a 360 spin and his helmet would fly off his head.

Wasn’t all bad before they all left abruptly. The fact they all looked great and left abruptly is why this is a fucking disaster. Honestly a concussion is one of the worst things that could've happened to Moncada. That is the biggest disaster out of this game. At least Anderson isn't injured.
