6/23 Fake Sox @ Real Sox

[illinoisredsox]

A bunt by a guy who can hit and hit with power, really?

 

My guess is that Farrell is behind this.

 

And against a right hander whose having some issues. The whole team needs to be told no bunting unless it's for a base hit or it's called from the dugout.

[bowman]

Another clutch hin by Hanram right,,, I hope Farrell don't have that bunt on. After he looked like he was going to bunt on the first pitch, the great Butternut should have made sure JBJ was swinging away. They all are sucking right now. Need a shakeup. I'm not a fair weather fan, but the flaws are really starting to show. Start with the coaching... Not good

yeah that too. It's simply unbelievable.

[StephenCurry30]

This team f***ing sucks.

 

I wouldn't be sad to see any of these guys be DFA aside from Price, Wright, Kimbrel,Mookie, Xander,Pedroia, Shaw, Papi, JBJ. So much trash on this team.

[illinoisredsox]

Well, given how the 8th has started out, probably doesn't matter anyway.

 

If I'm a starter, let me go 9. I can't do much worse than the clowns in the pen right now.

[StephenCurry30]

I have been calling for Farrell to be fired for a WHILE now. If he actually called that Bunt for JBJ, he exceeded even my expectations for him as a retard. I know he is actually retarded, but even that was impressive. Has Farrell attempted to qualify for the Special Olympics? If no, he should consider it, he has a GREAT chance of winning. This guy is the Lebron James of retards.

Ha, you think Buchholz can't do much worse than the bullpen pitchers? He's grinning right now thinking "challenge accepted".

[Jasonbay44]

Good job by Hembree, who is one of the few guys on this roster who has pitched good this year to work around the error.

[Jasonbay44]

Pedroia coming up clutch!

[Dalas21000]

Can someone explain???

[illinoisredsox]

Tied going to the 9th.

 

My prediction, some light hitting Pale Hoser will dink one around the Pesky Pole; hasn't happened yet this series, but it seems to for the opponents about once each set.

[illinoisredsox]

Kimbrel in.

 

Steve Stone on the White Sox broadcast had an interesting graphic Tuesday night. He said the average 93 mph fastball down the middle will look more like a 90 mph pitch to a hitter when thrown down low and a 96 mph pitch when thrown up on the zone. The analysis came in conjunction with analyzing Abreu's double off Kimbrel Monday night on a pitch down and away.

[Dalas21000]

Too many fundamental mistakes lately....Im not so sure about coaching staff

[iortiz]

Papi with a double and nobody out. Seriously if we lose this one I'm going to punch someone in the streets randomly. LOl!

[Jasonbay44]

This home plate umpire has really been squeezing Chicago pitchers... Thanks

[illinoisredsox]

PAPI.

 

They'll walk Shaw. No sense in having Bradley bunt with Ramirez batting behind him.

[illinoisredsox]

That will have Hawk Harrelson yakking.

[iortiz]

Wow! 3/4 of those pitches against Shaw were strikes. Thanks God there's no a robot umpire out there LOL!

[illinoisredsox]

JBJ, relax. He has tended to tense up in these situations.

[illinoisredsox]

Was that a strike? Gamecast did not have it as one.

[illinoisredsox]

Book on Hanley right now is thrown it at the bottom of the zone and let him swing over it.

[bowman]

Even if we win, 1 out of 4 at home sucks.... against the White Sox. Send half our farm and get Trout, The other half and get another # 1 A few more and get a stud 8th inning pitcher Thats all we need to do If not, keep everyone and in a couple years, we'll have stud backups at all positions...

[illinoisredsox]

In Leon We Trust?

[iortiz]

Was that a strike? Gamecast did not have it as one.

 

It was a nasty pitch down in the corner. Yeah it was a strike, but given the situation JBJ should have pulled the trigger.

[illinoisredsox]

Well, have to catch the rest of this one on the White Sox radio broadcast. At least it doesn't have Hawk.

[Jasonbay44]

We missed an opportunity to win game, Ortiz is out for rest of the game and we still have a s***** pitching staff that will surely give up a at least 1 run this inning. Yay

[Station 13]

You have to f***ing bunt there. This team could bunt under Francona, Coco was good at it. A flyball was what Hanley hit to win in that situation.

JBJ is pretty clearly an awful bunter

[Jasonbay44]

Neither team wants to win this game
