Either win in 5 or lose in 3.

I don’t want any faux comeback BS now.

what was the error?

Homer: Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try.

Clay out of the inning.

COME ON OFFENSE!

(Anyone here, by the way? Too early/too depressing?)

am cleaning closets & stuff

but keeping an eye on the game and felt some pitches to Vlad were too high but I gues Vlad swings at it all anyway

But not bad contact by Ells.

1-2-3 goes the Sox offense.

1-2-3

And no patience from our hitters. We gotta wear their starters out and get to the bullpen (the Angels #1 weakness).

Tough loss last afternoon USG

But I could have told people that Tolzien really is not very good. At least the Defense looked strong.

by Gnick on Oct 11, 2009 12:32 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

He crumbled under the horseshoe pressure.

It’s incredibly depressing to hold them to 10 offensive points and lose by 18.

by Ben Buchanan on Oct 11, 2009 12:33 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Especially considering

the time of possession difference.

by AJBlue7 on Oct 11, 2009 12:37 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

True.

Quick defensive scores will give the ball right back to your offense. The Badger offense seemed to be able to sustain drives, had some nice 3rd down conversions, just couldn’t score.

by AJBlue7 on Oct 11, 2009 12:41 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Alas

Oh well, we went in expecting a loss more or less. We’re still on the way to a big bounce back season.

by Ben Buchanan on Oct 11, 2009 12:43 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Thats our offense for you

We can pound it with John Clay and Zach Brown but we really don’t have much flash to our O. No real big play threats (I don’t consider Nick Toon one) and very predictable play calling (the fake FG be damned).

by Gnick on Oct 11, 2009 12:43 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Zach Brown can pound it

But he has to cough up the ball at the end of each run, so not a huge plus.

by Ben Buchanan on Oct 11, 2009 12:46 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Well, I'm a

Michigan fan, so we do have an offense, but it’d be nice to have a defense that doesn’t let the opposition convert 3rd and 24s on a regular basis.

its alright

lets focus on the third out

Man...

I am getting SOOO tired of these umpires. I was a bit more tolerant at Angels Stadium (home field advantage) but is just silly.

And this guys calling a ball one pitch and damn near same location next time is a strike.

On the internet I could HEAR that ball hit the bat (distinctive crack of the bat)

Bad calls all around.

Kazir keeps attacking with

A straightaway first pitch strike, and the Sox keep letting it go by.

We should be nailing that pitch. That first pitch to Papi was a HR waiting to happen.

The pitch Morales took out was a high-inside 96 MPH fastball.

He is pitching his heart out. Not to shabby for first time under the big lights of the playoffs in an elimination game. Gotta love his composure under pressure (how many times so far has he gotten out of jams?!).

But a lot better last inning.

Good luck Angels

I really hope you can stop the MFY because the Twins obviously can’t and the NL doesn’t stand a chance

I guess I am pulling for LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA now

I am not big on the NL despite Manny being with the LA.

I sure do

I’ve changed my mind. I want LAAAAAAAAA to beat the MFY , of course, but would like to see LA win. I love Manny & it would be great for Torre to say " take that" to the MFY brass.
