southsideirish71 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Corpseball is back in full affect. We score like we are just insane for 4 days, then poof on a hot night at the Cell the home runs swings come back and a pitcher 2 hits us. Now Hawk with the how hard it is for teams to sweep. Well when you decide to have the offense take the night off, and force your pitcher to throw a no hit shutout then sure its hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We score like we are just insane for 4 days, then poof on a hot night at the Cell the home runs swings come back and a pitcher 2 hits us. This type of pitcher is just a bad match-up for us. He never gives up the long ball, which is obviously the biggest strength of this offense. Guys like Uribe are typically worthless against a pitcher like this, and sadly, Iguchi has become that way also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time for this offense to start beating good pitchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 We can't afford to lose 3 of the 4 next bad matchups. It's time to start emerging as a real contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They hit the ball where it was pitched. Tonight with the weather hot, they went into softball team mode. Its not we have crushed the ball right at people tonight. Gaudin has manhandled in the same way Santana manhandles us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we score here. Hopefully he can hit a double into the gap. Does anyone really believe Ozzie will take the grindiest man on earth out of this lineup.
