5/20 @ U.S. Cellular

[iortiz]

Wow, that wasn't a strike at all.

[jung]

How did the ump miss that to Drew. How I hate these emphatic K calls by the home plate ump when he has missed a pitch that is not even close.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Dang it I thought salty got that one

[iortiz]

Seemed gone

[jung]

Dang it I thought salty got that one

 

Me too...Usually Remy says something about the wind direction although often in his zest for the home team he often misses it. The ball is not carrying to LF tonight. Drew hit one I thought at least had a chance and although Salty did get under that, if the wind was helping you have to think that would have been gone.

 

In fact, a little help from Mother Nature and WMB's would have been out although it was more of a line shot.

[SoxFanForsyth]

I really really really don't like Mort here

[SoxSport]

Farrell must surely realize Ellsbury is hurting the cause making all those outs at the top of the lineup.

What the heck is he waiting for?

[SoxFanForsyth]

We are winning this game.

[jung]

Since we are talking a little about patience at the plate...Mortenson lives off of impatient hitters. If hitters would simply exercise a little patience, he will burp out a meatball. Ya' just have to wait for it.

We are winning this game.

 

I agree...a little smart hitting and we should eat up this bullpen.

 

Besides...we have cleared Mortenson!

I believe the White Sox are one of the teams that have walked the fewest amount of times in the league.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Ells going to hit a double, Gomes ground out to 2B, Pedroia sac fly. Get this within 1.

[jung]

Oh come on.....somebody gettin' on and David is going to pound one. He is due for his daily feast.

[WMB16]

Straight up blows

[iortiz]

Another GO by Ellsbury ... f***ing bum

[Jasonbay44]

Ellsbury isn't capable of anything but grounding out to 2nd.

[SoxFanForsyth]

Wow come on man that's ridiculous Ellsbury. .304 OBP now. Get this guy out of the freaking lead off slot. He's hitting like Salty without the power

[jung]

That was the worst of four godawful AB's. Had a walk in hand and insisted on grounding to second instead.

[bill29]

Time to reconsider our lead off hitter. Ells 0-4 and sub 250.

[jung]

Way to hustle Pedey. Come on David...its time to feast

[bill29]

Fail of an inning. Offense lacking....here we go again.

[Station 13]

f*** off Farrell, bat Ellsbury 9th tomorrow.

[bill29]

f*** off Farrell, bat Ellsbury 9th tomorrow.

 

1st or 9nth... we still hit .185 as a team. Pathetic offensive performance against an average pitcher.

[jung]

Boy did we need that

[bill29]

Breslow was clutch...again.

[jung]

Oh ya' know Will wants that one back

[bill29]

Fail

[Station 13]

Almost Will. Damn he had many close ones.

[jung]

Well s***...the only silver lining I can see outta' this is if Farrell has finally seen enough of Ells to drop him in the order.

With Victorino injury, nothing will happen.
