southsideirish71 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) We have more swings on pitches that are chest high or better away. On 2-1 that is not the pitch to drive. Same pitch. Same result. Edited June 6, 2007 by southsideirish71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 2 pitches in a row that Thome should have crushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Jim Thome is my f***ing hero, all they do is walk his ass in the 9th inning and for good reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 10:12 PM) A three run walk? He coulda hit it to the proverbial 3rd lane of the Dan Ryan and the tying run is still only on deck. The walk works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 Time for Dye to seizure out of the way of every inside pitch and pretend it is not a strike to compensate for the fact that he can not get around on an inside pitch anymore.

I can almost guarantee that JD strikes out looking on an inside pitch. He'll lift his hands and slide his legs backwards and look at the ump in disbelief.
