DonkeyKongerko Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 For those of you who like fun facts: The last time a White Sox pitcher started the All Star Game was 1959. I shouldn't have to tell you it was also the last time the Sox did something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Hudler Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 When is his last start before the All-Star game. That will have more of an impact on whether he starts than how many votes he got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Hudler Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 Probably Friday against the Tribe I'd say he is in good shape then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grebeck Fan Club Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 I don't mind if he starts or sits in the bullpen all game. Sure, I'd love to see a Sox guy start, but I'm not going to lose sleep over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steff Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 he better b starting Personally.. I'd rather he finish. To be the WP is better then being the starter, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Hudler Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 Has that ever happened..? Can't recall specific instances, but I would guess that it has happened many times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted July 7, 2003 Author Share Posted July 7, 2003 Can't recall specific instances, but I would guess that it has happened many times. '83 maybe ? That was a total AL ass kicking and the GS from Fred Lynn came early in the game..... if memory serves correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mreye Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 Yeah, but the starter has to go 5 innings and I doubt very much that that has happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 Yeah, but the starter has to go 5 innings and I doubt very much that that has happened. That's what I mean. I've never seen the starter go more then 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesox247 Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 I heard on radio that Loz will indeed get the start. Not sure if its confirmed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 The 5 inning rule is waived in the ASG. I remember Steve Stone starting and pitching 3 perfect innings the year he won his Cy Young. Never saw anyone pitch more than 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 According to The SCORE, Esteban Loaiza was FIRST in AL player balloting for SP ESTEBAN FOR AL ALLSTAR STARTING PITCHER! He was first by a large margin. 318-264 over Halliday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Looking at Halladay's record and ERA, I wouldn't have a big b**** if he starts. If the game was being played at a neutral site I could see him getting the start. But, Since the game is in Chicago I think having someone on the mound who is comfortable there, familiar, etc. should give him the edge over Halladay. Because "This time it counts" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
