SoxFan1 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 What is Danks' career long outing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Great job by Danks. His cutter in on the righty enabled him to get the easy out with that what is typically a hittable pitch (and thus getting the hitter out in front to the point where instead of hitting it out, he hits a routine fly out).

fathom Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Luckily Garko was just barely out in front of that. Nice to see Danks limit his pitch count tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danks use of his cutter was the reason Garko didn't park that. He's done a tremendous job pitching inside most of this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan1 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 WAY TO GO JOHNNY! 98 pitches through 8. Lets get him a f***ing win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 That was the worse pitch he's thrown all game. Damn near paid for it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Tremendous fastball and he ties his career high in K's with 8. 93MPH....WOOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's done a tremendous job pitching inside most of this season. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't try to say Danks got lucky on that. Great inning by Danks there, and the K gets the crowd into it. CQ looks ready to blast one, so let's get a base runner this inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jul 2, 2008 -> 01:59 AM) That is what is so fun about having a young pitcher like Danks around. We are watching him evolve in front of our eyes. He is growing EVERY start. You see him start to trust his pitches more, and build confidence. It's a blast to watch. The stat regarding him only allowing more than 3 runs in a game twice this season is so studly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 yes Brian...I don't care if it wasn't a hit. That was a great approach to RF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jul 1, 2008 -> 08:54 PM) Maybe i'm blind, but Lee has looked pretty good to me. He's really changed speeds often and hasn't thrown a ton of fastball (which is the typical MO). More importantly on top of changing speeds he's taken control and used the inside of the plate to set up his outside stuff to righties. There were two innings where we had a chance and even than it was just as much because the Sox hit some solid pitches (or were able to get ahead of the count but for the most part, Lee has been throwing strikes). Lee has been very good. It's not like we are getting shut down by some hack. Sometimes you gotta tip your cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 That may have been a groundout, but that was one of the more encouraging swings I've see out of BA, going the other way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Not only can we not get a base runner, but we just gave Lee a chance to close this out if the Indians score. Linebrink's coming in....the match-up against Sizemore is very scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
