Guest wsc425 Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Wednesday, April 16 @ 7:05 p.m. CT Official Game Thread Hernandez 3-0, 0.45 @ Garland 0-1, 9.00 Hopefully the Sox can come back from the crap they played last night. Valentin's overaggressiveness was good. Jimenez should have caught that ball. He saw it, but he missed it. Billy Koch should have closed it out. Problem was it was very windy and when you throw 100 mph fastballs to a man who has homerun power things go wrong. Then things go down from there. Hopefully the crappiness of that game will not continue with the struggling Jon Garland taking the hill. I may be on for play-by-play early tonight...

JoshPR Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 This is reminding me too much of 2001 when the Twins had sucked the previous year and then we couldn't beat them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubKilla Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Problem was it was very windy and when you throw 100 mph fastballs to a man who has homerun power things go wrong. 100 MPH fastballs? Maybe if Botch was throwing 100 MPH fastballs Sweeney wouldn't have hit the living s*** out of the ball Botch so nicely served up for him last night.

He did throw nearly 100 mph. I remember it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wsc425 Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Alright. Therefore, lets stop with Koch discussion and focus on tonights starter, Jon Garland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Alright. Therefore, lets stop with Koch discussion and focus on tonights starter, Jon Garland. Why? He's the last person I want to see out there when we absolutely need a win..... especially after last nights debacle. However, if he pitches a masterpiece tonight (ala Boston in Beantown from 2002), I'll gladly eat crow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wsc425 Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Not happening tonight Killa. Sox are lacking a long relief pitcher...but maybe Glover can fill that hole tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to know how fast Koch was actually throwing...i don't know how reliable the mph on the tv is, because i can tell it's been off before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
