DBAHO Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 Got a real chance to pull away from the Twinkies over the next 4 games, with the Royals series coming up after this, while Minny take on Detroit which should be a good series in it's own right. The Indians are coming too though, but let's just keep doing what we've been doing. Let's hope JC's outing goes better than his last one too, hopefully with AJ catching tonight.

WSoxMatt Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 Royals have been GREAT under Buddy Bell, with the exception of 2 great games pitched by the Astros, lets not overlook anyone and make sure we get at least 2 of 3 in every series!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm remembering that Weaver was the guy who started the beanball battle between the Sox and the Tigers in 2000. He hit Carlos Lee, IIRC, and was in the middle of the battle royale that followed Parque's retaliation. So, for old time's sake, how can I put this?? Oh yeah, f*** JEFF WEAVER!

aboz56 Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 ESPN Insider has an interesting feature where it rates and tells all of the pitches every MLB pitcher throws. When I have time, I'll be posting these for the opposing teams so Sox fans can get a good grasp on what the opposing pitcher will be featuring. Tonight, Jeff Weaver...

Balta1701 Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 And the Twinkies did officially lose. Cleveland is hot now, but this streak of theirs will be broken soon. All streaks always are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 Jose...work fast and throw Strikes. That's all you need to focus on. Your best games this year have been when you worked fast and threw strikes. People might score a run or two off you, but if you're not giving up the walks, people will not beat you. Just trust A.J. and throw the ball to his glove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatScott82 Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 The Twins lost. Now its time to gain more ground. We need a big game out of Jose tonite- He is due! Hopefully A.J. will catch Jose tonite and Widger catches El-duque tommorow nite. Lets sweep 'em, but most importantly lets win 4 in a row! I'm going to the game tonite- but i'm not going to bring my broom. Everytime I have done that over the years- we ended up losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 Twinkies have an off-day tomorrow as well, so if we win 2 straight games, we'll be up a good 8 games on those boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
