Just an event I had to take pictures at.

It went well, I got to eat some good food and drink some good beer.

So fucking pissed I had to go to a wedding instead of watching this

Watched the highlights on ESPN News, the stadium looked pretty full for a 15 inning game.

Obviously Q! died for our sins in order for the gates of the AL Central to be opened.

To conclude, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Well, even a blind buffalo gets shot once

Clearly, I still think Thome should have been DFAed and Owens called up back in June. The man is simply out of gas.

Who am I kidding…I’m Afraid The Damage Is Quite Severe!

Great win.

this isn't hard. you live in a port city. and you're a slut. do the math. -larry

And having an integral part in ending

three of the extra innings didn’t make AJ feel too good, I’m sure

Can never have too many.

I know I expect my hitters to hit 1.000 at all times, especially in extra innings.

I guess the loophole in that

would be you didn’t mention outs on the basepaths…They may hit 1.000 but they run themselves into outs, a lot

by jeeves on Sep 7, 2008 11:58 AM CDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

larry really?

why do I have to be an idiot? It is my opinion. I never once said he has to get a hit every at bat. You are an idiot for thinking I was inferring that.

Great and longggggg game

It was fireworks night so most of the crowd stayed the whole game. Bravo bullpen, besides the Jenks hiccup (crushed) they were outstanding. That 10th inning was frustrating and I found myself yelling at Thome (“dude you are so unclutch”) I can say I wish he would have altered his style just a bit in that situation and not take 2 strikes.

Konerko looked good and Griffrey made pretty solid contact all night. The better news was doing it against Lackey so initially the team does seem to understand they are far from a 1 man offensive team and continue to rake at home.

I couldnt truly tell Floyd’s problem from my view. Did he just continue to get the ball up?

2.5 up and one more game off the schedule.

damn this game was fun.

I couldn’t have asked for a better evening.
Thome beat the shit out of that ball. And then punched all the Angels in the dicks, one-by-one.

off to the races! may not be around for the game, dammmmmmit!
so GO SOX!! bring home a winner!

...and then some depressed fucked-cake eating.

anyone at the game?

on L.A. tee-vee the announcers kept talking about playoff atmosphere. Sure felt like a big night.

It was a big night - Chicago Pete rose from the dead to insult me on a previous thread.

Everyone coming out of the woodwork. What a bunch of front-runners.

He spelled "asshole" correctly, which describes me perfectly.

It was Pete.

you think long gone posters like hulksmash and pete are really coming back? our market research has simply shown that posters like familiar posters to post.

She's doing a good job of mirroring.

The “Get your fingers out of your gash” quote was an especially good approximation of the charm that is Pete.

Can longdrive be next? MM, this is great news, as perhaps sox113 will make a return appearance!

Matchup: Angels (85-56) at White Sox (80-61), 1:05 p.m. CT
Probable Starters: Joe Saunders (170 2/3 IP, 4.06 RA, 1.26 WHIP, 81 K) vs. John Danks (164 2/3, 3.55, 1.28, 134)
Pythagorean Record: Los Angeles, 76-65 (654 RS, 600 RA); Chicago, 80-61 (717 RS, 621 RA)
Hit List Rankings: Los Angeles, #8; Chicago, #6
Prospectus: During April and May, the key to White Sox success had been their pitching; they had a lineup that was barely getting by with a .245/.326/.400 line, but their pitchers were holding opponents to a measly .241/.309/.358. That dynamic shifted with warmer weather; in June, they hit .300/.361/.521, and they haven’t slowed down much since then, putting together a combined line of .280/.345/.489. Granted, their home park has plenty to do with this—their Isolated Power at home is .245 against a still-solid .164 on the road—but it was a welcome change regardless, because the pitching staff began to falter following their incredible start. Since the time the offense went into overdrive, the pitchers have had a more difficult time, giving up a .269/.325/.435 line, including a horrendous .304/.359/.479 away from The Cell. This explains some of the White Sox’s struggles on the road; they are 32-39 there thanks to an offense with less production and a pitching staff that can’t keep men from scoring. At home they are nigh unstoppable at 48-22. With Carlos Quentin out of the picture for now, the Sox may be in trouble for the remainder of the month; losing the club’s best bat is going to sting, especially since the slugger was one of the few Pale Hose killing the ball on the road (.300/.390/.560 in 243 at-bats).

beckham loses race to the bigs; giants on their way to ruining connor gillaspie's career
Manager Bruce Bochy said that Gillaspie wouldn’t start a game immediately but might be available sooner for pinch-hitting. The 21-year-old spent the previous few weeks batting a combined .269 with no home runs and 15 RBIs for the Giants’ Rookie-level Arizona League affiliate and short-season Salem-Keizer, so playing in the Majors would be an ambitious leap.

he's one of the most advanced hitters from the draft and 3b is a position of need for the giants. i imagine the giants are expecting him to compete for the job next year (at some point)

and want to get a look at him and make sure he’s doing something this month.

i was being hyperbolic.
