Batters have to be aggressive. He is at 62 and not even out of 3rd inning. This is not even close to over.

Edit: Mueller..one @!&%in pitch. :angry: :angry:

No chance Petagine gets a start in the biggest game of the year against Randy Johnson.

Olerud, maybe, but he'll be playing tomorrow and this sun seems to be killing the lefties on the Sox today at the plate.

Hey RJ - it is possible for a pitch not to be a strike you shiitbum. STFU!!!

Petagine went home to Venezuela for what they termed a serious family situation. He won't be back this year. Was in the paper today.

That Chicago game is an example of small ball coming back to bite you in the arse.

Back to back singles to start the inning. Guy can't get the bunt down. Fouls off the first attempt, then ends up trying anyhow with 2 strikes. Next batter, double play - inning over.

The larger point is that calling for Roberto @!&%ing Petagine to play in THIS game is beyond absurd.

Did Ozzie the turd Guillen really justify his triple A lineups by saying Cleveland is better than the Yankees and the Red Sox and deserved to get in more?

If Cleveland is better, why play AAA lineups? Why not try to knock them out and improve your own chances?

Guillen is the biggest fraud going as is his .500 team since June. I can't wait until they are knocked out (unless they're playing the MFYs that is).

Small ball backfired on the Sox twice yesterday but benefitted them once. It's a percentage play, and the case against it is often overstated.

2 of the top 3 AL teams in Stolen Bases are in the playoffs, and 3 of the top 6 in the majors. If Boston or NY miss the playoffs, only 1 of the top 5 in OBP in the majors will make it. Plus, a team with almost the same stolen base success/failure profile as this year's ChiSox won the World Series two years ago in the 2003 Marlins.

Sox steal another base. When it really counts, they're going to try some small ball tactics. New York has let up the 2nd most steals in the majors this years, so it makes sense to try.

I think it has its place. But they're going against a Cleveland team that can't hit recently. Not that Ozuna is a particularly good hitter, but essentially giving up the at bat when you had a chance at a big inning might not be the best timing.
