Oh s***

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I know I said I wouldn't, but I did.

Hopefully, I'll do another one tomorrow.

Not too familiar with Stanek, but he throws overhand, so he'll be tough for the SOX.

[YastrzemskI]

Tampa may win this division.

[OH FOY]

Best we can do is a split, hard to make up ground, that way. All it amounts to is 4 games are done on schedule. They add up, once you hit less then 100 games left. Season now starts moving quicker.

[Jasonbay44]

They need this win bad. I guess the positive is that Josh Smith isn't starting game two

[OH FOY]

Yanks losing too, Sox have to play better, cant get swept. Need a Price beauty.

Back in the early 60's knuckler Wilbur Wood started both games of a doubleheader for the White Sox.

Started didn't know that, thought he was Sox pick in the Draft? I think he came through their system.

On September 26, 1908, Chicago Cubs righthander Ed Reulbach pitched two complete-game shutouts in a doubleheader against the Brooklyn Dodgers:

I am mistaken,could have sworn I seen it

[Jason33]

We just can’t get it going this year. I expected a slow start but it’s past time to start playing good. I mean we can’t put together anything especially against good teams. We have the talent it’s just everyone except maybe Devers is underperforming. JD is hitting ok but not like last year at least not yet. Benny and Betts are struggling especially Benny. With the Rays and Yanks having the records they have we either need to go on a big run which is not something we can’t do or were looking at a wildcard spot. The BP needs to be added to IMO. Our lineup will come around and our starting pitching is pitching better but our BP just gives it up. All that said a good winning streak and we’re back in the conversation. So hopefully it starts now in this second game at home!

[YastrzemskI]

3 outs on 9 pitches. That’s what’s up.

[RedSoxGrl]

Tampa may win this division.

 

Why do you say such terrible things?

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Nice play by both Bogie and MC.

[oldmaninthevegasdesert]

can we actually get some hits and runs this game

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

I am mistaken,could have sworn I seen it

 

Yup, I probably got the year wrong.

[OH FOY]

Eck is right, JD might be more valuable then Mookie.

[oldmaninthevegasdesert]

can someone get J.D. some Soma's so we can get him back in the line up?

[moonslav59]

Plus, we sat Beni just as he was heating up.

[Station 13]

This guy knows how to pitch. No hit me 2 strike down the pipe tee shot like Porcello.

[jung]

What's that line from Charlie Wilson's War.... You [in this case Sox] would depress a bride on her wedding night.

[OH FOY]

Price doesn't throw hard like he used to, but he spots it good.

[TylerD]

Price might win this for us.

[OH FOY]

Better swing tonight with this Ump.
