RibbieRubarb Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Yes, it was an ugly game on both sides. Yes we lost. But there are always games like this. Hell even the 116 game winning Mariners of 2001 had games like this. They blew a 12 run lead to the Indians in one game. I know some will see this loss and it will jusitfy their doom and gloom thoughts on the team. But a good team always bounces back from a tough loss. So. If we win tomorrow... We would have had a 7-1 road trip..pretty damn good. Still have not lost a series this season...pretty amazing. Still own the best record in MLB. Still have a 4 game lead on the Twins, maybe more if they lose. There are a lot of positive things to see. Shrug it off and let's kick some ASS tomorrow!!!

NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 It's ok dude. That game was insanely frustrating. Just let everyone here get their venom out of their system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmmmbeeer Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 We scored 7 runs off of Harden. I was half expecting to lose tonight simply because he was pitching, I'm encouraged by the fact that the Sox once again determined the outcome of this game, not the opponents. This is the kind of game where Ozzie's joking around in the clubhouse becomes invaluable...I'll be the music is blaring in that visitor's clubhouse right now.

rcpweiner Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Yeah ... our record now stands at 16-5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 If we were playing .500 right now, that would be enough. But the fact we are in first place and people are complaining that we let one game slip away, it makes me wonder if we really deserve to be winning.

I think the A's bullpen kid that was chasing down those loose balls even admits they had a worse day than he did. Can anyone throw a strike in that pen??

YASNY Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 In know that on opening day, if was told that we'd be 16-5 with a 4 game lead at this point, I'd would have been a very happy camper. Let's get 'em tomorrow, boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Damn it even if we lose tommorrow we would have just went 6-2 on a roadtrip and would be 16-6 overall. If you would have told me that 4 weeks ago, I would have laughed in your face. Especially if I would have heard what Konerko, Dye, and Rowand were hitting.

Controlled Chaos Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I'm glad there's one of these posts instead of all negative crap. We let one slip away...we beat ourselves...it happens. We have Freddy going tomorrow against a team that is still struggling at the plate and a pitcher against us that has a 6.3 ERA. We have a good shot at another series win....Let's get it done!!!!!!!

retro1983hat Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I agree, I would be thrilled if I heard we would be 16-5. BUT ... we haven't exactly played the best baseball in the last 4 games. We should have lost Sunday and yesterday. We need to get our regular lineup in there every day for a while and we'll be fine. Today will be an important game. Maybe someone can tell Dye that he left his keys back in the locker room when they are all leaving today and then all run out the door and get on the bus and leave him there.

LosMediasBlancas Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 I think the Sox will remember last night's game and learn from it. It might be a turning point that propels us to even higher levels of play. This team seems to have a lot of fight, I think it might fire them up. Now lets' take 2 of 3, c'mon Freddy no HR derby.

LosMediasBlancas Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 The O seems to be waking up a bit. I think every guy who had at least 3 at bats last night, had a hit. That's a good balanced attack and guys picking each other up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think we were 0-21 with the b**** fest that took place last night. If we would have lost on something simple like a walk off HR or got totally blown out it wouldn't have been as bad. We got screwed over 6 ways from Sunday from the umps and the errors were totally nasty and we kept coming back only to blow the lead again. Games like that build up a lot of frustration & people gotta vent somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
