[Shilzzz]

WHY are walker AND Nevin playing?

 

Wheres dusty?

 

what's wrong with that?

 

Sarcasm I think. He's implying that we don't usually see Dusty do smart things like this.

 

what's sarcasm?

[ConstableRabbit]

Anyone hear that contractor advertising over the air in the background? That was weird

 

Yep, just commented on it as well

 

I'm slow tonight.

[anemic offense]

God you suck Pierre. Lean out and get hit or something

[anemic offense]

Maybe Rionny can keep his hit streak alive.

[anemic offense]

Nope. Screw this I'm out

[soccer10k]

This is a pathetic game thread.

 

EDIT: Almost as pathetic as the Cubs offense has looked today.

From Aaron Gleeman:

Yankees coach Larry Bowa ripped Corey Patterson for stealing bases in a blowout Sunday, but Patterson didn’t let that misguided criticism stop his non-stop running. Patterson swiped a base Monday for the ninth straight game, becoming the first player to accomplish that feat since Rickey Henderson way back in 1986.

 

Despite beginning the season on the bench and being platooned at times against left-handed pitching, Patterson is on pace for 22 homers, 106 runs scored, and an amazing 81 steals. His career-high is 32 stolen bases, but Patterson has always been a high-percentage thief and he’s an incredible 26-for-27 thus far. If healthy, he should cruise to 50 steals

You knew as soon as he left the Cubs he was going to get good. That's how it works.

Bowa really looking for people to rip these days

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

For those interested, the Sox just took the lead 4-3 in the 8th with a 3 run homer by Alex Cintron.

Just too bad he ain't a Cub, or it would be worth having this conversation again.

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

7-0 Reds beating the Cards in the top of the 9th with 1 out.

[jaydee]

how does alex cintron hit a 3 run bomb? w sox have some kinda luck

Alex Cintron? Boy are they living a charmed life.

 

I am actually going to watch the 9th of that game over the 9th of the Cubs game

[Derwood]

Can we hope for the classic "Closer in non close situation blowing the game" scenario?

[RonnieWooWooSanto]

The sick part is that he was not slated to start the game. Uribe's wife is pregnant and he had to leave because whe was giving birth.

 

So it was an emergency start for Cintron.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Hold on, are you guys telling me a Major League baseball player hit a home run, during a game? And there were people on base too?

 

Cintron has a .583 OPS, if you want the White Sox to lose then you should hope to see a lot of him.
