[Blackhawkswincup]

Horrific development for White Sox

Jimenez got injured on Thursday vs Indians

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Engel with a solo shot

1-0 White Sox

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

Solid play by Lamb. Stranding this runner is big.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Abreu with a HR

3-0 White Sox

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

And they didn't.

Why not walk him there ffs

 

[IU Hawks fan]

f*** yeah!

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

And they didn't.

Why not walk him there ffs

Especially with no Eloy in lineup

 

[EpochLink]

And they didn't.

Why not walk him there ffs

Oakland off to a bad start, is this another repeat?

 

[Terry Yake]

haha, this is exactly why i simply don't get my hopes up when this team makes the playoffs

it's like they automatically lose their brains once the playoffs start. why the f*** would you start a rookie LHP against a team that hasn't lost against a lefty this season? anyone with a brain would've known not to do that

Not sure, but it will never make sense to let Abreu beat you instead of McCann.

 

[Terry Yake]

plenty of time to come back

yeah...no

this team is not nearly as good as their record indicates

 

[Terry Yake]

its almost like.....the A's would've been better off starting bassitt or fiers instead of you know, a lefty

this looks identical to the last 2 WC games for the A's. starter shits the bed->reliever comes in and gets everyone out

Well at least this time they have another 2 games at best to get it right if game 1 goes to the shits.

 

[Terry Yake]

giolito throwing a perfect game so far, and every single hard hit ball by the A's has gone right to a sox fielder

yup....sounds like the A's in the playoffs

 

[Terry Yake]

giolito is really gonna throw a perfect game isn't he

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Gio looks locked in today

 

[EpochLink]

All White Sox today

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

What a BS strike call

A couple bad calls today

As long as Ump keeps this zone for rest of game for both sides I can live with it

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

And just like that the ump decides to change the zone to screw over Gio

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

And its over

Gio perfect game/no hitter gone

 

[Terry Yake]

thank f*cking god for la stella

 

[John Price]

Giolito is a good guy

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Gio with 8th K

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Grandal solo HR

4-0 White Sox
