SoxFanForever Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Blaming Q for Danks blowing up that inning is just ridiculous. Sure, it was a bad play. He could have minimized the damage and just start throwing garbage up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBolt Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 09:02 PM) It definitely had an effect. Danks had nothing. He was going to hit with or without Q screwing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Seriously, Quentin needs to start DHing. I think what he did in the past two games while DHing should put the myth that he'd kill himself while DHing to rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:02 PM) Got to love Hawk acting like that error by Q prevented Danks from getting any of the guys who followed him. Hawk likes to blame anything but the actual players involved. Its the umpires, a random bad play, hell a pigeon fart. Anything but the play. Did the error put more stress on the pitcher. Sure. However giving up all those runs with 2 outs is on him. He pissed down his leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBolt Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 (edited) This kind of bulls*** blind homerism is why Hawk isn't appreciated outside of Chicago. Call the game like it's being played, Hawk. Not the way you wish it was. Edited July 16, 2010 by Thunderbolt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macsandz Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 15, 2010 -> 08:02 PM) Can't remember a more disappointing inning than that in a long time. Offense has to keep it going. Whatever. The Twins have a terrible starter on the mound and a brutal bullpen lately. I just hate the way the Sox infused a reeling team with momentum the way they just did. Danks has got to pick up the pieces better than that, though. That was a horrible display of lack of focus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He couldn't get to a pretty routine fly ball, Rios had to cover for him and dropped the ball because he was afraid of running into Quentin.

So the following batters where he preceded to give up six runs are meaningless in this discussion, right? How about the counts where he had two strikes on a guy and couldn't put him away?

How about the counts where he had two strikes on a guy and couldn't put him away? I think you need to look at the before and then the after. In the before, he sure looked like he had some decent stuff. Then after the error, it wasn't the same. He was obviously rattled. I'm not trying to say that Danks had no fault, but the error had a huge part in why that inning transpired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
