bubba phillips Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 We win 2-0, our 2nd shutout win in the last 5 games (and 3rd shutout played in that span). We take 3 of 4 from a poor Texas team. On the other hand, they have a better record than we do, so maybe we're making progress. Not pretty the last 2 games: 5 errors (3 of them by Anderson) and 1-21 with runners in scoring position. Hey, you can't have everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Nice to see one of these winners threads again. I was wondering if I didn't make them how long it would take before someone else does one. Last 3 wins there wasn't one. I like making them as a chronicling of the win but thought this late in the season in another losing year that maybe they pon't serve much of a purpose so I stopped. But I do like when the 1st page is filled with 3 or 4 of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) Jose Abreu tags his 100th rbi. Hes now in second in the AL, and 3 behind Devers for the lead. 120+ rbi season is in striking distance. He will surely top his career high, barring injury.

pcq Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 No offense pitiful defense and a half no-hitter. Everybody bunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenSox Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Great pitching. Jon Jay now has an OPS below that of both Yolmer and Engel. Bring back Cordell, bring up Mercedes...something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People complain about not winning and when they win they complain about the players who played poorly. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually try to find the time to check out the "that's a Sox Winner" thread after every W. It's just good to see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CregerMax Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 That was a great Sox win! Awesome pitching and just enough runs. Good Teams win these games, can’t all be offensive blowouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we still have to cherry pick on why he sucks. I think it's great he got that many RBIs with the clean up hitter having an avg. only shared by NL pitchers.

I'm beginning to many just want to be miserable. It's interesting the pointless debates during game threads instead of enjoying the game.
