Riiigggghhhhttt........Strom is on the mound throwing the pitches. LOL And Dusty is popping it up with RISP. LMAO. Neither are responsible for what we are seeing tonight. I was surprised Dusty didn't send Odorizzi back out for the 6th. |

Why bunt when you know Maldonado is coming up to strike out? I would honestly pinch hit Stubbs. At least if he pulls his usual weak crap, we’d score. I would have sent Meyers up for Chas and Stubbs or Diaz for Maldonado. |

Odorizzi is out of shape and hits a wall in the 5th or 6th. He never gives us a quality start. When Greinke comes back, I'd take him out of the rotation. |

Not a bad idea if we could bunt. We could have bunted them to second and third and squeezed in the tying run, but, Dusty wouldn't do that. |

coach discounted Bregman's injuries, called them booboos. You've walked into his comedy routine The comedy routine started when you showed up. Most people here...with the exception of a couple who are too dense to recognize sarcasm.......know what I meant. I directed the 'booboo" comments at abregman fan and I guarantee you he knew what I meant. |

Brantley leads off with a double.....the great Breggie swings at the first pitch up under his chin and pops it straight up in the air. The worst AB of the night just when we needed the runner advanced. Then, two ground outs and we get nothing. Way to screw up the inning, Breggie. He had great AB's twice and then does this shit.

Walk to Meyers becomes a strikeout.

So, why did we steal in that inning? I thought old school baseball was sacrilege.

The stupid SOB uses pinch hitters in the 8th with two outs and nobody on after not pinch hitting for the same guys in the 6th with the tying and lead runs on and no outs........Then, brings in his closer in the 9th when he is trailing. He said Pressly had a sore arm and unavailable Sunday so he puts him in to give up another run. I guess his arm felt great tonight. Having this dumbass as manager has cost us at least 10 games. |

Remember the time Dusty said that he doesn't want guys walking too much because they clog up the bases, or how he doesn't like home runs because they're rally-killers?
Yeeeeeah, that's our manager.

Yordan strikes out on a pitch that nearly hit the ground.
Yuli struck out again and is 0-5 and looked bad all night......Stanek on to pitch the 10th.

I guess the perfect time to have one of the ugliest ABs of your career is immediately after a game-tying bomb in the bottom of the 9th so no one will remember it.

White Sox just dropped a 3-spot on the A's in the 5th inning. 4-1 White Sox halfway through that game.
