Romy and Cedanne swinging out of their ass at trash. Two terrible ABs.

Cedanne needs to go. He had his chance. He failed. Get rid of him now for a bag of golf balls.

If we can get that much.

Whitlock is a weak link. Loser. They need this game. 

Whit is usually money.

I actually auditioned for the role of Catwoman-but I was too good. I got rejected when I actually managed to cough up a hairball.

Can't let a good Gio start go to waste. Don't know how many you'll get. 

Houck needs to come up big today.

Do we ever really do that with one game?  I think if the bullpen ends up blowing a lot of games, you look at that.  But you rarely look at one game in April.

I have, before. When it's late in a season and we are down 1-2 games in the WC race, I think of the many winnable games we let slip away, and sometime a single game or two stick out.

One of my favorite themes--- 2 strike, 2 out pitching .    Some can do it and some cannot.

The loss of a 6 run lead after two outs in the 5th, no one on base points to the pitching,  BUT

after the 6th inning, the Sox hitters conjured up 1 single in the 7th-8th-9th and 10th to seal the deal.  They k'ed 6 of those 12 outs.

Nah, if you score 6 runs the hitters did their job.
