IlliniKrush Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 Agreed, all you can ask for is an honest effort from management and the players, and a respect for the fans. I agree that baseball games are a great way to spend a day/night. The only thing that wouldn't make that true is if the team plays without heart.

GoodAsGould Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 i was at the game yesterday between home plate and first base on the lower deck..... fun game all around fans were going especially crazy when timo was up to bat and nailed k-rods ass..... another moment was when willie harris plowed him over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedge Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 k-rods I forgot... why is he k-rod and not f-rod? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I forgot... why is he k-rod and not f-rod? K = strikeout he strikes guys out? That's all I could come up with...I think I heard that was the reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedge Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 K = strikeout he strikes guys out? That's all I could come up with...I think I heard that was the reason. so shouldn't Alexander Rodriguez by HR-Rod or RBI-Rod or H-Rod? I know it's dumb... but it's just really inconsistent and it irritates me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 so shouldn't Alexander Rodriguez by HR-Rod or RBI-Rod or H-Rod? I know it's dumb... but it's just really inconsistent and it irritates me. Alexander Rodriguez looks REALLY weird to me! Yeah, I agree about the K-Rod thing, but it seems to work for him. HR-Rod wouldn't really work for anybody.

Wedge Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 this resurgence has everything to do with the stadium refit and Ozzie Guillen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 this resurgence has everything to do with the stadium refit and Ozzie Guillen. And a team that's been in contention all year. The sox last year weren't really in contention until the flubs series at the cell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Guillen, Shingo (saw alot of Chinese people there today) and Our contending team all contributes to the large crowd gathering. I love sellouts!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 There were 37,000 at the game tonight?!?! Make that 37,000 plus 1 ...

SnB Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 I was there tonight WOW did not expect any kind of crowd like that, got stuck up in 514, but had an awesome view of the game. Crowd was very into it, gotta love shingo's entrance too And yes, there were "more than usual" asian crowd, but that was probably for ichiro.

baggio202 Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 i think the casual fan , who was so hyped up about the scrubs from last year is now disappointed in the scrubbies and maybe heading to the south side...its a golden opportunity for the sox to win back some of the casual fans...i hope we dont blow it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gong sound when he gets an out and when he gets the save is a nice touch too. I was laughing my ass off in the stands! Guess it's easier to do that in a win.

CWSGuy406 Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 I'll be heading out there tomorrow. Lately they haven't been winning since I've been attending games (I think the last two or three), but hopefully the Sox will be able to break that streak. Should be fun. Freddy Garcia on the hill, hopefully another huge crowd. GO SOX! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 I couldn't believe the crowd tonight. The Shingo entrance is money, it's Gagne-esque. I also noticed the higher than normal asian crowd, hopefully shingo can get a following. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridgeportHeather Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 Can someone please describe the Shingo entrance for those of us who haven't seen it? Oh, and IK, no more 5-game losing streak, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
