Just need the purple drank to wear off and the Sox return to normal and it’ll be fine.
Jason Wooden of marketing, whom I just watched with the tv guys, is with the radio guys this inning. Let’s hope he continues to bring the hits.
Bottom 3:
Dubon K’s swinging. (Puhl’s off the hook.)
Chas pops out to left.
Wooden’s gonna have to talk fast.
Altuve literally rips a ground rule double through the Yankees top of the fourth in the left field wall. Like a deadeye shot at a carnival, I shit you not. You could practically hear the ding!
Then, next pitch, Yordan bloops an RBI knock into left.
Crochet, furious, K’s Diaz fast.
3-1 Hose.
Have you watched these guys this year??? They just swing!
I know, but the Astros USED to be known for being hard as hell to strike out.
Uncle Mike
They’re still the hardest team in baseball to strike out this year (last time I checked). Crochet is good.
White Sox pop out after Arrighetti’s first two pitches are way off the plate. Maybe a good sign
I hate these marketing shills. At least Yvette brought along a couple of prominent points when she was here.
The Popout Strikes Back. Ugh that was a nasty game the other night
Finally a 1-2-3 top of the inning. OK, time for our bats to get serious.
That’s the kinda of response we needed SA!
Top 4:
Lee kindly pops out on the infield.
Vargas, late of the Dodgers, squibs out 1-3.
Fletcher grounds out 4-3.
Pena always hustles his ass off going to first.
Should prolly try to run on Lee (Pena)
It’s a completely different discipline from hand sewing, and, of course, light years different than machine sewing.
Man, Caratini is a completely different hitter right handed. Just no chance for contact.
Meyers get completely abused by fastballs. Oof.
8 strike outs - not even getting close to Crochet (beside Pena, Altuve)
Unless you’re Mickey Mantle, or possibly Lance Berkman, switch-hitting is not a great idea.
You’ve got Caratini, Meyers, Dezenzo, Dubon, and McCormick. In a row. You’re conceding four innings at the plate.
