OT: Other Sports 73

[southsideIrish]

Great start for the lads. Finish them quickly.

Had no idea Minnesota had that monster losing streak in the playoffs. Nice to see it continuing.

Maybe EE bops a couple dingers and clinches the series for the Sox. He has the power, so maybe that's what Ricky wants? IDK. I'm not a big fan of it, but I don't think it's the end of the world. Lots of postseason play left and they have the upper hand in this series right now.

It completely neuters Abreu. You think they'll pitch to him again with RISP and a base open?

His average has been bad this year, but you know he still hit 10 HRs, right? And that teams are well-aware that he has a ton of power, and can change things with 1 swing? You can't just forget about EE, IMO. And then you have Robert sitting right behind him at 6... Everyone saw what Robert is when he's on, and he seems to be heating back up a bit. His last 4 games: 1-3, 1-3, 3-5, 1-4. I think you're blowing this way out of proportion. I'd prefer to see McCann in there, but I'm not going to lose sleep over this one. There is plenty to bitch at Ricky about, normally, but I'm not really hung up on this one.

Yeah his odd hit is a HR. It's like 2012 Dunn.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Well this has potential to be very bad for Sox

Bases loaded for A's in bot 1st

 

[ChiHawks10]

Wow. WTF is going on? Working so haven't been able to see everything, but it has sounded like there's been some bad defense?

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Madrigal error

2-0 A's

 

[ChiHawks10]

Need Robert to steal a base here, and try to cut into this lead. Gotta get to the A's starter.

 

[ChiHawks10]

That helps. Now bring him home.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Cubs strike first!

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

That helps. Now bring him home.

And they failed to do so

 

[ChiHawks10]

And they failed to do so

Yep.

 

[ChiHawks10]

Keuchel not looking as sharp as normal here...

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Keuchel looking like he is throwing batting practice

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Pull him

4-0 A's

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

This is disaster and we will have a struggling kid or Lopez pitching game 3

God damn it we need to win today

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

This is game we needed a guy like Detweiler for

Cordero will just make it worse
