Bad call, White Sox win.

Even your pitcher knew it was in the dirt. Thats the only thing that could explain the meatball he threw Crede on an 0-2 count.

I am so sorry if I offened any of you well spoken men and women on this board.

I see you are from Chicago...thus the "intensity" in your post.
Yes, I am from California and would like to see the Angels win...however I would also like to see the White Sox win since they haven't won since 1917? Right?

But I think we can play nice here, can't we?

I took offense at the fact that you don't think I know the rules of baseball. (that wasn't very nice)

Have a nice day

"J. Crede doubled to deep left, P. Ozuna scored" I do believe that was the act that won the ballgame.

The other act that won the game was the heads-up play by A.J. by running to first when everyone else was getting ready for the 10th inning. The Sox deserved to win because they were smarter.

BTW, I don't like the Angels since they beat the Giants in Game 6 with a cheapy homer to shallow right. Go Sox.

No. It was a great outing by Buehrle, a lousy error on Josh Paul, a dumb pitch with an 0-2 count, and a nice shot by Crede to win the game.

I can say with a good bit of certainty that you will never see me in Anaheim.

Let's hope that the sox tank the rest of the series so that the curse won't be broken.

I was half way rooting for them until I saw that NONE of the sox admitted that it was a crappy call....once the game is in the books nothing short of an intervention from the head poobah will make it any different. Like the Pine Tar game.....

Geez, be honest and step up to the front and admit that the the call sucked....

I DO have to hand it to the heads up awareness the batter had in taking a run to first....what were they gonna do call him out? Smart guy, don't make the call any better though...it still sucked.

Back when I played ball.....I came across home plate, tagged it and then turned to watch the finish of the play...... One of the other team yelled "Tag him he didn't touch the plate"....surprised I instinctively lunged and was tagged well off the plate by the catcher.

Ump called me out....I protested and asked him if he saw me cross and NOT tag it....he said he didn't.....everyone on the field saw me touch except the ump....he called me out based on what I did AFTER wards.....

I truely believe that the ump blew it then AND last night by letting the subsequent actions dictate his call(s)......

Oh and the ball never touched the ground...it was in his mitt the whole fuchin way....

Was JP charged an error?

You no wanna' come to Anaheim? And diss this guy?

[gassy]

einreb,
I started this post less than 24 hrs. ago. Since then, I've seen the play at least 1600 X pi times. I have no idea what my point is. Why weren't you at the F&H last Saturday. Doesn't matter. Didn't want to talk to you anyway. Time to bring back the " Winnin' Ugly " tagline.
Go Sox.

During my sons last year of little league, the coach's son pulled the same crap. It was a game winning 3-run homer by a skinny little kid who had never hit a home run in his life. After the kid cruised past home plate, the coach's kid screamed that the runner from first missed home plate. Of coure the kid hadn't missed the plate, but the ump bought it. I'm pretty sure the coach put the kid up to it. Freakin' awful.

dd74 - It appears he was (unless there was another error called on him). I had to go look it up when you asked since I wasnt actually sure.

E - J Washburn (1, throw); V Guerrero (1, bobble); J Paul (1, catch)

I'd also like to note for the record that you're the only one that hasn't bit on my silly comments. I love the ChiSox. I'm really happy that they are in the ALCS. I'm happy that they are 1-1. I have to be happy about it because it may be the only ALCS series in my lifetime. What am I supposed to do? Watch Bears games? My comment about not coming to Anaheim was obviously sarcastic. As for the mouse... its sort of programed into us midwesterners that we go to Orlando. LA is only visited in 1 hour increments when my United miles can't get me a direct flight to Maui.

Mrs. K - I didnt even realize you were a girl. I didn't intend to question your knowledge of the game. I just didn't know why you would argue that the mit didnt hit the ground since its the ball in question. Then I sort of poked you a bit since you got so defensive. If you had seen where I was sitting at the game, you would understand that I was in no position to judge the call. Needless to say, they didn't replay it at the game.

Gassy - I sort of figured you had tougher skin than this. One year of winning for the BoSox has made you weak. That three game ass whooping is gonna sting for a while, but you'll be better for it. What you need to focus on is the Yankee 205 million dollar payroll of old guys that can no longer juice. They have many years of misery ahead of them. Sorry about not taking you up on the F&H/beer outing.

Mikez - Not that it matters, but hoping that the sox tank is a completely respectable position. I just dont share it.

Wow, this OT forum posting is tough work. T

Well said Bernie. I just happened to be sitting two seats from Bernie. He OBVIOUSLY was not out!

It's hard to explain this to people who have no idea how to say "Polish Sausage" or "Roosevelt Road".

Geez freakin' whiz....if this were the Cubs, everyone would be happy. But no, we blame their choking an entire series in the playoffs on a fan's interference with a foul-ball. Weak.

Is Anaheim a city?

There are TWO Disney theme parks!!?!?!? Wow, I love learning new things.

[gassy]

einreb,
You rock, my man. Keep up the good work!
I throw you props and you get up in my grill.
Damn U GUN' B HURTN'

Yeah, there are two. One's the original (left coast), one's a swamp (right coast).

Bernie: "not biting on silly comment..." Is that a compliment or a slam? Just curious...

For my money, real fans get behind their teams. It's one thing I learned from the L.A. Times sports dept. Yeah, you write ridicule when your boyz lose (or do) stupid, but through and through, you support them through and through.

So I expect Chi-towners to be behind the game's outcome. I don't slam fans. I do, however, slam bad calls.

Einreb ,
How is it that you didn't even know I was a girl? My avatar is ME....and then there is the "Mrs." part???
Sorta obvious, I thought anyway.

Let's see what happens on Friday!

May the best team win...fair and square...so there is no fighting!

Hey whattya expect....he's from Chicago...all he thinks about is da Bears, da Sox/Cubs, da Black Hawks, da Bulls, beer and flank steak.....at least that's what SNL tells me.

[M.D. Holloway]

The game is played on the field, the ump is part of the field and the ultimate rule. Like it or not, he is God. Was it a bad call? The tapes say so but the game isn't played or ump'p according to the tape. It is a dynamic game with split decisions that have to be made.

I hope they never ever use replay the way football does. Some of the fun and allure of the game is contention and ridicule of the calls blue makes. It adds flavor to a overly commercalized tradition.

On a different note, it is nice to see another lady on the bored, Cool Chick and 12own911 et few al need some sistern. Welcome Mrs. K, and if I may say so, your husband has great taste in bathing suits.

Whoops... sorry, I was too vague. I meant it as a compliment. It just seemed like folks were taking this too seriously. Coming back with a giant picture of the mouse was perfect. I'm a Goofy man myself, but the mouse aint bad either.

Mrs K. - I had the avatars turned off, so I didnt see your ass shot. I'd still put the odds at 50/50 that you're a fat middle aged man, but I'll go ahead and give you the benefit of the doubt.
