fathom Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ May 14, 2008 -> 03:41 AM) Is weaver looking that good. We looking that bad or a little bit a both. Don't have WCIU out here. He does look good tonight, but our hitters have the same approach as usual against him. And now, Danks hits the leadoff hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is seeing a lot of pitches. Weaver can't locate breaking balls real well. Lucky for him, throwing straight fastballs on the outer half is enough to destroy the Sox.

Danks doesn't look comfortable out of the stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
