Woo 4 pitch walk
"I’m gonna rise up, gonna kick a little ass. Gonna kick some ass in the USA. Gonna climb a mountain, gonna sew a flag, gonna fly on an eagle. I’m gonna kick some butt, gonna drive a big truck. I’m gonna rule this world. I’m gonna kick some ass. I’m gonna rise up, gonna kick a little ass. Rock, flag, and eagle!"
But the idiot got thrown out trying to stretch the single into a double...
and then Renteria doubles right after him. Damn.

Who's pitching for the Twins?

Bold prediction
I think Fields is going to do something good this inning.
Chip, chip, chip, chip.

The nice part about not being specific in your prediction is that you can claim it was correct no matter what it was.
Except maybe a GIDP or K.
Why so serious?

It could be that he asks the ump if he's OK after getting hit by a foul ball.

Not really
And anytime he starts complaining about the umps, I’m willing to take their side.
Chip, chip, chip, chip.

Horacio Ramirez is awful...
Why is he pitching in this tie game?
"god, you’re fucking stupid."
-- Larry
Yeah, blame the umps...
Not Ramirez for being a terrible junk-baller.
"god, you’re fucking stupid."
-- Larry
Yeah
it’s the “tight pitches” not Ramirez’ infectious suck that costs us right there

Why is Wasserman in?
We already saw WAY too much of Horatio Ramirez. Ugh.

by hitlesswonder on Sep 7, 2008 3:14 PM CDT up reply actions
You mean when he woke up this morning, right?
Actually, I don’t mind the line-up. I do mind Wasserman being in the game. Ever. And Ramirez shouldn’t be in for all three of those batters.

didn't relly understand the IBB there

I guess that's OK.
As long as he abuses Wood like he’s done Vlad.
Chip, chip, chip, chip.

if you're playing for the DP
why catch that ball… anything less than no-runs scoring on that play is a disappointment
AIM: SouthSideCheat
Hmmm...
that’s all on Dye. He had to make a decision and it’s probably fairly difficult to allow yourself to just let it fall.
The Twins are not good, please stop posting their score.
by defensive indifference on Sep 7, 2008 3:21 PM CDT up reply actions
Yeah it's all on dye
but the IBB to hunter vs. Wasserman (which feels like a matchup in our favor) means the whole team should be playing for the DP on the next batter… They’re playing to prevent the 1-run from scoring. It’s already been decided by the managers previous move.
AIM: SouthSideCheat
Not bad.
Not as bad as I expected when the Water Man came in.

i'd be fine with that
then put that 3rd stringer in behind the plate

Is that where the pitches cross the plate?
Because it’s not where they catch the ball — it’s where it crosses the plate.

Raven Symone carried that program

Well, it'll take some magic now.

Yeah, but....
Because Stone was a special guest, they ended up spending a lot of time telling stories.

They should have just shut him down for the year
When MacDougal is pitching better than him, you know something is still wrong….

Meant to say all 3 can hit it out of the park, since you know that’s all our team is capable of doing.

See, right there.
He’s on his way to make a tackle, but he’s got a big grin on his face – looks like he’s going in for a hug.

Kyle Orton will have a lower completion percentage than the Sox's team BA

Nice that the Twins lost too...
but this would have been a huge win. Oh well…
"god, you’re fucking stupid."

wait, is that a semi-this-loss-wasnt-the-end-of-the-world post?
i agree. nice to have a game down the stretch you don’t mind losing.
bears sure made it forgettable.
Woulda, shoulda, coulda.
I’ll gladly take 2 of 3 against a team with both one of the best records in baseball and one that was 42 – 26 on the road entering the series.
Think about it, Friday to Sunday in the AL Central was 1 game from perfection from the Sox standpoint. Many, many, many other bad permutations of the 3 X 3.
Pitching, defense and health.
4 runs wins this game.
Sunday line-up screws us over.
Next 11 games
7 at home
4 – Toronto playing fabulous.
3 – Detroit the spoiler.
4 on Road
4 – Yanks who we play like deer looking at headlights.
One game at a time.
Pitching, defense and health.
