bobryansson Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) I don't disagree with the strategy, but the execution didn't go as I'd hoped. Edited August 29, 2010 by bobryansson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just give away too many damn outs. Joba must be very quick to home, as it's not like Lillibridge had a bad jump there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigHurt Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Cause I wanted to keep Konerko in the game in case we tie it or Konerko bats against Rivera in the 9th? I see your point but there's nothing wrong with going aggressively towards the end of the game. I hate Ozzie more than anyone but you can't blame him for our lack of offensive production... not always, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Well, it's very comforting to know that we have Teahen leading off against Mariano Rivera... Ramirez probably trying too hard there after witnessing what happened the last time with Teahen up and him not hitting.

OilCan Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 29, 2010 -> 04:08 PM) The odds of that happening just went down by about 90%. thus the strikeout touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Laughing at Farmer calling Kotsay "a gifted player" and an absolute "delight to have on this team." Praising his versatility, talking about how his diminished playing time could change in a heartbeat. What is it with this guy? It's like the Roberto Clemente Award is more important now than winning the ALCD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Man... its gonna be hard losing 2-1 like this. I never say this (oh were gonna lose before the game is over) with any other closer in the league... except Mariano Rivera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Manny's hitting now with bases loaded in the top of the 6th. And promptly gets thrown out for arguing balls and strikes with the home plate umpire. LOL. Edited August 29, 2010 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Haha, Manny Ramirez just got ejected during an at bat. First pitch was outside during the AB, and he turned around and argued.

caulfield12 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Perfect. Guillen and Manny Ramirez both ejected within two minutes of each other. Gardner was obviously safe, but it seems like the Yankees have gotten 90% of the questionable calls today. How's Harrelson handling the umpiring today? Seems like Guillen has been thrown out of more than 24 or 25 games in his career. Edited August 29, 2010 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
