ChiSox_Sonix Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 HUGE win by KC! Hopefully this charges our guys up a little bit to put another game between them and the twinkies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFan562004 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Sep 11, 2008 -> 02:50 PM) Nice, lets get back up 2 games. That would be sweet to lose only a half game when the Twins had KC at home and the Sox had one of the hottest teams coming in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamTell Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I won't feel comfortable unless we get a 4 game lead going into Minnesota. Any loss helps and we need to take advantage of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBetsy Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I want a 4 game lead going into the HumpDome. A sweep of the Tigers and Royals and 3 of 4 from the Yankees would be nice going in...how about a little 9 of 10 stretch from here for the Sox?

ChiSox_Sonix Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 By the way, how ridiculous is it that Joe Mauer is hitting .365 at home for the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will face Shields, Jackson, Kazmir and Sonnanstine...that's tough. Kazmir matches up extremely well against them. The Twins will have to scratch and claw for 2 wins in that series.

After seeing a game up there this July, I can tell you it's not ridiculous at all. Mauer, as we all know, loves going to left center field and that area of the Metrodome is HUGE. It's great that the Twins lost today (getting back on topic), we REALLY need to get a win tonight.

Yeah, they beat Pappelbon (sp?) on Tuesday and after taking a 4-1 lead in, I believe, the top of the 14th last night Percival loads the bases in the bottom with no out and they still won 4-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joejoesox Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Liriano gets a ND against the Royals where the final box score is 3-2 I'm sure nobody here would've believed that if they were told it would be the outcome before the game started That's why they play the games!

BlackBetsy Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Twins / Balm'er 1-1 going to bottom of 2nd. Kubel doubled in a run in the 1st w/ 2 outs and Hernandez singled in a run in the bottom of the inning after the O's had none on and two out.
