Dick Allen Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 8, 2011 -> 08:55 PM) No, there's not. It was supposed to be Chris Rongey's future predicted response in the post-game to complaints Ozzie made the wrong moves with Floyd and the bullpen. Guess I did a good job. You did. Its exactly how Rongey would respond, although I can't really say I can blame him. I'm sure he likes employment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxrd5 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 I feel bad for Hawk reading off the Indians play by play like this means anything to any of us. The Sox can't beat anyone in their division except for the Indians. We won't be sniffing the division lead if we can't beat the Twins or the Royals.

OilCan Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 8, 2011 -> 08:54 PM) CLE was trailing 9-3. Now it's 9-4 with the bases loaded and NO OUTS in the bottom of the 8th. make that 9-6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Travis Buck with a double after Hafner struck out. 9-6 Indians still down, 2nd and 3rd with only one out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he likes employment. You're probably right and I do feel bad for Rongey as he's in an impossible position. I don't understand why intelligent fans get upset with him though. He plays to a certain subset of the White Sox fanbase and has to deal with a lot of terrible callers. Take what he says with a grain of salt.

caulfield12 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) This might be headed for the longest 9 inning game in baseball history (outside of Yankees/Red Sox). I think Floyd had 93 pitches in 3+ innings. I guess it's good for concession/beer sales. Not so good for the defense playing behind Floyd or Jackson.

Real Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 lol, twins let our hitters get themselves out, Ramirez and Dunn both make outs on pitches up and out of the zone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Yep, that's the book on our hitters, with the possible exception of Konerko. They get themselves out. Meanwhile, Minnesota just keeps exerting pressure every inning until the opponent crumbles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 If we had any OBP guys in our lineup at all beyond Konerko, we'd destroy twins pitchers Every f***ing guy in our lineup is impossible to walk ezcept Kong and in a good year Dunn Pierre: Doesn't walk Ramirez: Doesn't walk Pierzynski: Doesn't walk Morel: Doesn't walk Beckham: Doesn't walk Rios: Doesn't walk Quentin: Used to walk, he's streaky now though and rarely walks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitekrazy Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 So Kenny's clusterf*** of mental midgets fail again. Open the unlabeled bottle that you think could be lightning is wupass. Change managers all you want but constantly attaining guys with no mental makeup will always produce under achievement. This team is so unclutch. What manager wants a team of bed wetters?

The AL average is 274. Moneyball it's not. For all the talk of increasing our OBP, it's all been BS. The only one who you can really say was a high OBP acquisition was Dunn, and we know how that's going. Edited July 9, 2011 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) There's no way Rios is going to do anything with a pitch on the outside half of the plate. He's just stepping into the bucket with every approach. Why Rios is batting ahead of AJ, I have no idea. Supposedly, AJ said something to Blackburn, a little "words exchanged" last time Pierzynski was up. Edited July 9, 2011 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
