Exactly the kind of pitches he served up late last season at Minute Maid, and he got so butthurt he squealed like the rat **** he is. This ******* broke a man's jaw in a game on purpose, and he gets called a hero by the media. Baseball is so stupid sometimes.


That was a fun game. But yea. We probly should have gone easier on him if we had known his butt hurt would be so strong.

The White Sox pitcher that started today came out of the game with forearm soreness. If Chicago pulls this out they will likely be down a big arm from their rotation

Edit: nevermind it was a reliever that came out with forearm soreness.

That is really too bad. The kid is a rookie and just recently got to MLB. He also throws left-handed 100mph has. Id say it a real blow to the Sox bullpen.

Sox are going through a bunch of pitchers.

This is going to be a 5 hour game

I'm watching the Starting 9 periscope with Dallas Braden and Jared Carrabis and they are live commentating the game and Dallas is doing the A&M Ball count chant lol. He referenced A&M too

Not playing until Monday is letting both of these teams off the hook for their pitching. They should not get the rest.

Tie ball game now after White Sox get a run back. This game is at 2.5 hours long already and its the middle of the 5th inning.

Jessica Mendoza is so awful.

Pitch goes pretty high out of the zone and Mazara fouls it off. Her response...

That pitch is way out of the zone. He has no business swinging at that pitch much less trying to make contact with it.

Umm...Those are the same thing.

2 walks and a Reddick special. News to the Sox pitchers: free baserunners are bad.

8 walks and a CI in 4.2 IP. That's a bad recipe. They are lucky to only be down 2.

Of course after they talk about the Astros reduced stats and cheating through all our games, a bit in this game as well, they then proceed to talk about all the others who are struggling and make excuses for their lack of performance due to the shortened season.

15 pitchers between the two teams totally blowing out their pens and they have no consequences. I don't get this. They rush to finish and play with no travel and no days off during the series and then give all the free time between.

And that's why you don't just half swing "to make contact" there. Analytics proves this out. The double play is a killer there.

Half-swings take away Abreu's most potent threat - power. If you're not Tony Gwynn, you can't directionally hit like that.

Abreu loafed it. If he had busted it down the line he beats the throw.

Wonder why he isn't trying to get to the bottom of the Yankees and red Sox's cheating scandals. Those are the ones we've never really "gotten to the bottom of"

As should absolutely be penalized in the next series for doing this to their closer on back to back days... but the long layoff lets them reset as well.

Yea that's the guy who wrote Astroball. I feel like he'll give us a fair shake.

And doubt it's a "pile on" type of thing. Would be cool if it dug into where it originated (Beltran) and where be brought it from (Rangers/Yankees).

Wonder if the A's will leave Fiers off the roster against us. It wouldn't be a bad idea TBH.

No way Fiers stays in a bubble without 15 year olds girls.

Well if the A's don't want all their dirty laundry out there they better include him.

SD shot a lot of bullets to strengthen their team for this year and are crapping the bed early. Down 4-0 T2

Because he did big stories on the Astros in 14 and 17. He's the author of Astroball which is fantastic.

They're a very good squad, but their additions were all pretty meh to me.

They just showed that the Cards are 68-1 in the postseason with a 4 run lead. That's a crazy stat, mainly they they have played 69 games with a 4 run lead.
