It'd be nice to see us take some pitches but I don't think pitch count really matters with Wakefield.

It's not a huge factor in the game but you have to be patient against him not just waving at the 1st knuckle.

Percisely why he averages 102 pitches a start.

 

EITHER WAY

Quick outs are bad no matter what the f*** you say

 

You didn't say that when we were crushing pitches early in the count while scoring 2 runs.

Maybe but it looks like his early pitches are the best ones to hit. I can't really complain about aggressiveness in this situation.

Beucase against a kunckle baller you have to get your pitch and drive it.

 

They did that in that inning, then these last 2 innings we are hitting bad pitches weakly.

How do you know they weren't their pitches when they got out? Just because you get your pitch doesn't mean you get a basehit.

But it means guys are consistantly hitting it weakly?

But we've crushed him for the most part. We had 2 weak innings out of 5. Thats great against a knuckler.

I am not even trying to make a big deal out of it but I would much rather see them be patient

i love how when our fans get excited about a towering, near homerun by konerko, boomer says something... but when graffanino hits a routine flyout to podsednik, that doesnt even make it within thirty feet of the MONSTER, they say nothing about all of the fans freaking out.

I usually don't b**** about the umpires, but Garcia is getting a smaller zone than Wakefield IMO.

I think you have to take into account that a knuckler is harder to judge for umpires as well as hitters. Its unusual flight and often-late break makes it tougher to track, so I'll give the ump some leeway for that reason.

 

( Bad strike call on Damon right there, I think... )

That's because Boomer was excited about Tony G's little fly ball.
