greg775 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 It probably would be easier as a Sox fan to just forget about watching when we play the Twins, especially on the road. At home we might win one out of five or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 08:54 PM) Pavano had 2 double plays turned behind him in his first 13 starts. 4 tonight. Sox after game"Well Pavano threw the daylights out of the ball. He was hitting his spots and keeping us off balance. You just have to tip your cap to him." Corpseball translation " Well he refused to throw fastballs down the cock after pitch one. For some reason he threw pitches that were slower or moved. These were especially tricky. The straight pitch that is slow was very hard to lay off. The one that moves away and down. Wow. never seen that one before. Our scouting reports said that Pavano would pump in fastballs after fastballs trying to hit the center middle in. He went away from his plan and threw the balls into the dirt. Now also the scouting report was a bit light on their defense. Because it said if you just pull everything to the left side of the diamond. They would get tired and would let them go by. This was not the case. Hey did someone see who is setting up the card game tonight. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 15, 2011 -> 07:53 PM) Such a lifeless performance But what reason do we have as fans to expect anything different? Because it's almost like you are rolling heads 22 times in a row and it SEEMS like the luck has to change at some point? If the White Sox haven't addressed the "Twins Issue" internally, as an organization, they deserve to lose if they're still pounding that square peg into a round hole. Something tells me KW is just that arrogant and pig-headed to think his vision will win out over an actual strategy/execution/fundamentals/scouting.

Capn12 Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Every single is an automatic double against us, unless maybe it was Konerko hitting against us somehow, and even then it'd be close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is laughable that the Twins' strategy always against the Sox is to steal almost every time a runner is on first. Throw a bunt in there once in a while. The automatic double does not help our chances of beating Minnie. Ha, another run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
