Dick Allen Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Both Paplebon and Jenks allowed runs in the same game. You could have gotten pretty good odds on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 I just rewound the tivo. Pods was playing pretty deep. Mack needs to start more in LF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milkman delivers Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 If we lose this one, it's going to really suck. This loss could be terrible to go into the break having been swept by a playoff team at home when you had a chance to come back in the last game to salvage something.

That's the only saving grace I can see. It's just amazing how every button Francona's pushed this series has worked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankensteiner Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 At the start of this series, I wanted to give the edge to our lineup, but their hitters have a much better approach to hitting. Boston looks to be superior to us in all aspects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JimH Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Everything and I mean every thing going right for the Red Sox. They are a good team and generally good teams earn their breaks. The strike zone has been a little weird today but so be it. If the White Sox want to be great they need to beat great teams. Witness the 10th inning, you have got to make that stolen base happen and then you need a big hit. Didn't happen and now they are losing. A wake up call for the 2nd half, not much else to say.

So now Pods is a little leaguer that has to be told where to stand in the OF? Do they also have to yell at him from the dugout to throw to 2B instead of home with his b**** arm?

Right. You are exactly right. Their hitters have had a great approach the whole series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Apparently the top part of the strike zone is at the belt. Nice K by Javy. 3-4-5 up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
