Jenks DOES NOT break the record. But the sox win. 3 batters in a row. Edited August 21, 2007 by SoxAce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 yeah maybe that shouldn't have been the title, the only thing right about that was the 7:11 start.......I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoota Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Perhaps if Jenks didn't have 8 days off, he would have been sharper tonight and kept the streak going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, he had a hitter 0-2 and threw him 2 crappy breaking balls, that's what got him. On another note, hitters had been 0-30 with 18 k's and 0 walks against Bobby when the count went 0-2 this year, so that's another streak that ended tonight.

Actually, Farmer and Singleton mentioned how Jenks's fastball and curveball were up, something that doesn't happen with normal work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well .375 in 128 at bats now, and not roids, he's just figured out how to beat all the drawn in infields he sees because of his speed now, plus he can bunt. And he's a career .270 hitter btw.

He left 2 curveballs up to Gathright, which he almost NEVER does when he's that far ahead in the count (SEE: batters with 0-2 and 1-2 counts against him's numbers) but he did this time and Gathright was just underneath it both times. As a result, he was afraid to throw another hook and Gathright's short quick swing got him on the fastball, which he had adjusted to after seeing a few of those too.

Owens is a way better baserunner than Joey is, but has not nearly the bat control and ability, so I wouldn't count on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, lets blame Ozzie. f***....Jenks hurt is ankle and the sox suck, why in god sakes would we try to trot him out early (and the Sox weren't in a game late in Seattle so they figured why push it). Bobby had a tremendous streak and while he lost it he still got the save and thats all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 (edited) Nope, he had a hitter 0-2 and threw him 2 crappy breaking balls, that's what got him. I wish he'd have thrown the high heat again, like the one pitch Gathright took, or buried a curveball. Gathright was on all those pitches Bobby threw, though. s***, he probably would have walked if Bobby would have done as I suggested. It really was a good at bat. Great feat, Bobby Jenks. It's a record that may be tied, but will never be broken. Edited August 21, 2007 by greg775 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
