I know there is a lot of love for Joe Crede, but I am sick and goddamn tired of seeing this asswipe swing at the first pitch and pop out to center.

Does this guy think he doesn't need to take a pitch?

By the way, 8 fucking errors? Scott Boras must be shitting himself.

It seems like a lot of these guys aren't being patient at the plate, and it's maddening to watch. They're also pressing and swinging at stuff that would normally be called balls by the home plate umpire. I know he's out of the lineup tonight with a hamstring sustained in last night's 4-3 win in Anaheim vs. the Angels, but Juan Uribe makes me want to pull my hair out sometimes with his lack of patience on the first pitch alone!

To be truthful, I think Uribe has been more patient at the plate as of late. Juan changed his stance slightly and has performed much better.

Wait, Crede is up........Holy Shit, he took a pitch!

Hawk called it. This wasn't a Farmer type call cuz Hawk rarely does this. He said Alexei Ramirez would hit his first MLB homer before he came up.

Boom!! 2-0 Sox.

Nice call Hawk. Thank God Uribe got hurt yesterday. :lol:

Holy Shit! Ramirez hit a Home Run!

How much does that little kid weigh? 118 soaking wet?

He is a little skinny shit but he can turn on a heater. He has pop.

Nice game by Floyd. He had nothing today. Yet he didn't give up a run.

All Wassermann needs are a shitty pair of glasses and a bad haircut and he'd be "Wild Thing".

This kid scares me.

5 years ago, today would be a great pitching matchup....Buerhle v. Zito

Watch the Sox make Zito look like a Hall of Famer.

That tends to happen for pitchers facing the Giants.

Not a chance. Zito has been dogfood all year. There's going to be a fight at the batrack for a chance to hit.

White Sox still can't hit, and that's going to be a cause of their downfall, but this has been a very successful trip.

6 wins in 9 games, and a chance for another win tomorrow. The Giants are very bad so hopefully no letdown tomorrrow.

Homeruns are good.

This Wassermann guys is such a piece of shit. If he didn't fall off the fucking mound everytime, he would have got that single up the middle for the put-out.

You suck, Dotel.

Author:  Frank Coztansa [ Sun May 18, 2008 5:42 pm ]
Post subject: 

Dotel fucking blows. All 8 of those pitches weren't even fucking close. Hell, MacDougal could have done that.

Author:  Beardown [ Sun May 18, 2008 6:26 pm ]
Post subject: 

Dotel doesn't blow Frank. He's been huge his last 5 or 6 outings. In big tough spots too. Yesterday he came in to face one batter after Buehlre loaded the bases. Struck him out.

He was shit today but I think he was a little tired. He's been used a lot lately. He's not gonna be great all of the time. But I think he's one of the AL's best set up guys.

Post subject: 

Every time he's in he makes me nervous. He's given it up before today too. And yes he has been big on this road trip, but you're a fucking asshole if you think you're going to come out of the bullpen and throw god awful pitches like he did today. I was totally shocked they were able to get out of that inning with the lead still.

No Panther.

Stone wasn't there today. Farmer said he had "Family business".

Hawk just was there to help Farmer out so he didn't have to talk, all alone, for 9 innings.

Hawk never goes to the radio. This might have been the first time ever. Sox weren't prepared to have a sub for Stone. Stone was there yesterday. Something urgent must have come up.

The only other time I've heard Hawk on the radio was the World Series.

Author:  Beardown [ Sun May 18, 2008 9:19 pm ]
Post subject: 

Hawk only did 2 innings in the radio both. Maybe 3. DJ was alone for those innings. One of those innings DJ interviewed Kenny Williams.

You can't tell me Ed Farmer wouldn't want to talk to himself all day.

7-3 west coast trip. The west coast is what normally sinks this team. It looks like they will be competitive the rest of the year. I still fear the racist charicatures.
