Dallas Stars Daily Links: Kari Lehtonen Comes Up Big As Dallas Stars Beat Ducks
For all the heroic efforts Kari Lehtonen threw out for the Dallas Stars in the first half of the season, particularly the first two months, it's hard to believe Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Anaheim Ducks was his first shutout of the season. But his 27-save effort came at exactly the right time for...
The Morning Blitz: Daily Utah links
Saturday's game against the Rebels marks Utah's first trip to Vegas since their 2007 debacle. I've discussed that game in detail over the last two years, so I won't really talk about it here. However, you've got to wonder how much of a confidence boost that will provide UNLV, if any. This is a...
The Morning Blitz: Daily Utah links
Instead of talking about the UNLV game Saturday, I thought I'd just post this because I think it really sums up what's on the line in this game. It's really amazing how far the program has come since 9/22/07. Or as I'd like to call it: The Day of Infamy. Frank Summers rushed for 190 yards and...
Alexei Ramirez Gets the Dropsies
Alexei Ramirez and the White Sox had a night to forget Friday. Less than 24 hours after I praised his defense at shortstop, Ramirez had the worst 1-error game I've ever seen. By my count, he missed/dropped 5 different plays. The most damaging missed opportunity was the lone credited error in the...
Dome Shutout (See: Sonnanstine, Andy or Marcum, Shaun)
The White Sox have been shut out 9 times this season, 5 of which have come in domes. Kevin Slowey became the latest speed-changing, control artist righty to baffle Sox hitters in the climate controlled environment. I feel like I should be able to come up with a lot more to say after a nearly two...
Sonnanstine Exposes Sox
Hours before game time, upon hearing the news that Alexei Ramirez and Toby Hall would be in the starting lineup in place of Jermaine Dye and AJ Pierzynski, I wondered aloud where the White Sox offense would come from on Saturday. I absolutely understand the need for both of them to have...
ANtics Episode 3.15: Breaking the 2 Hour Barrier
On Saturday night, Joe Blanton beat out the Twins' Carlos Silva in a one-hour, 49 minute shutout, making the crowd of 30,000 at the game wait for more than an hour before the promised post-dusk fireworks. While the game's duration was quite short, it doesn't match other short-lived items we've seen...
Washburned Away
It's one thing to hope the A's offense will put up a few crooked numbers against a not-so-good Seattle Mariners squad, but today's performance on the scoreboard made you go "OOOOOOOOO..." As in, "Ooooooooo, that's ugly." After receiving an other-worldly 16 runs of support in his last outing, Joe...
Another One-Night Stand
He was so self-confident when we locked eyes. I could tell by the way that he took pitch after pitch that he was the guy for me. His seductive plate discipline, his confident stroke, his discerning eye, his power ... for a night, he was the one. And then, the next day -- he didn't even show up. I...
Open Thread: Game 9 - A's vs. White Sox (cont.)
