[Slasher9]

I hope e-rods first pitch hits Buck right in the yamsack.....

[mvp 78]

Need a one day contract for Izzy Alcantara

[Spudboy]

Yamsack.

 

Never heard that before.

 

I like it.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Wade Miley sucks.

[Kimmi]

Right handed batters have been hitting Miley pretty hard lately.

 

I hate the Os and everything about them.

 

We need to win this game and win this stinking series. Don't put me in a bad mood.

Last night's thread is closed, so I'll say it here. Pomeranz looked great last night and I have been one of his biggest critics. The 7 innings, 1 run and 8 K's were terrific, but what impressed me was how he pitched out of trouble at least twice and at least one time the trouble was created by errors. The guy showed some grit.

In attendance. go Sox!

[Jasonbay44]

Not a great start Erod...

[Station 13]

Eddie needs to be careful going inside on some of the RHH.

[d-money]

Offense needs to get going.

[Station 13]

Great base running again.

[d-money]

They should be shellacking miley!

[d-money]

Where's the damn offense?!

[d-money]

Just great! Erod serves up a dinger.

[Maxbialystock]

Miley started with a lot of fast balls but since then has thrown a wide variety of pitches which the Sox simply can't hit squarely. So far he has outpitched ERod by a mile.

[Maxbialystock]

Did I forget to say the Orioles love ERod's fast ball almost as much as he does?

[d-money]

It' s inexcusable but not surprising from this team. You just wonder when they gonna put it together and start winning consistently.

Game!

[Maxbialystock]

Wade Miley sucks.

 

All evidence tonight notwithstanding. Tonight the suckee is pitching for us.

[Jasonbay44]

E-Rod with an awful game tonight

[Spudboy]

7 run rule in effect.

[Maxbialystock]

That was ERod's changeup, right in the geometric center of the strike zone, maybe a couple of inches below it.

[Maxbialystock]

7 run rule in effect.

 

To say nothing of the four dinger rule.

[mvp 78]

Cool your tits. It's only 2-1.

[Station 13]

Were these HR on inside pitches? Didn't see the game after the 1st.

[Maxbialystock]

One thing seems apparent to me. The Orioles work a lot harder at keeping the ball down in the strike zone than our guys do.

 

There is an article in today's washington post by dave shenin that says wstatistics say grounders are bad news for hitters and good news for the defense, so hitters are trying to get the ball in the air. Well, not our hitters, of course. No way, no how do we want to give up our MLB lead in GIDP's.

 

 

I'm being unfair, of course. The idea is simply to hit the ball squarely.

[mvp 78]

Trumbo's hr was down in the zone.

[Station 13]

Zzzzzzz offense sucks when 5 starters are bench or platoon guys.
