Gert T 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 Great game in Queens tonight. Seo turns in an amazing, entertaining performance (8 IP, 0 R, 4 H) with like ten thousand Koreans cheering him on, and Reyes has a terrific night (4 H, 3 SB) in a 1-0 Mets victory. Seo's been incredible. He's given up one run in his last three starts. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You certainly wouldn't expect someone to be able to get 4 hits in a 1-0 game. Hell of a game though.

KingPK 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 Since he's been getting dumped on by the fans, I predict Steve Finley will be the hitter of tonight's game winning HR. The Red Sox should try and get a sponsor for that, make a few bucks. "And tonight's Chevy Bullpen Blowup of the game is....." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KingPK 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 Schilling's got some rest, so that's probably why he was so sharp. He'd appeared a LOT over the past few weeks, and that's gotta effect a guy pushing 40 that's used to four days between appearances. Still, I'd like Foulke back (hopefully he wasn't too hurt by the liner that dinged him today during his live BP outing). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mike546 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 The thing I don't get about Schilling is the fact that hes struggling finishing one or two innings without getting hit hard. How do you guys expect him to go 7+ innings every start without getting killed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fuzzy Dunlop 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 Because when he starts he can bounce back from one or two rough innings, but if he's closing and has a rough inning, the game could be over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vampiro69 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 The AL Wild Card is starting to get interesting. An Oakland and Yankees team that is struggling and a tough Indians team with a resurgent Twins is going to make the last month and a half interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mike546 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 Just heard that Schilling is starting on Thursday. Their definitley rushing him back to the rotation. Hes going from one and two inning appearances to 100+ pitches just like that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Kamala 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 Alright, tonight The Royals go for their 20th loss in a row. The Royal are putting Mike Wood, who seems to be a decent enough pitcher considering he pitches for the Royals and The As have Barry Zito starting. The six Royals who have faced Zito, are 7 for 49 against him. I'm going to say The Royals lose their 20th straight tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 I feel bad for Buddy Bell. His nephew died in Iraq, and he inherited a crappy team which is now gonna be mired in a record-long losing streak. But if Alan Trammell came out of 2003 in one piece, Buddy can do it too. So keep losing, Kansas City. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Kamala 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2005 I bet the Royals break their streak on Tuesday against The BoSox. The Red Sox have been struggling a bit and its Schilling's first start in months. If there's any game for the Royals to win, it's that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
