Guest *KNK* Report post Posted October 17, 2005 I'm shocked there were no "Why is Ozzie overusing his starters?!" constroversy. Usually sports radio idiots like to think a pitcher going complete game is a bad thing. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They didn't throw that many pitches. Contreras threw 114, Garcia 118, Garland 118, Buherle 99. This is all after a week where neither of them started. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I was just pointing out that sports radio people are idiots regardless. Obviously they didn't pitch high pitch counts, i guess the whole shitty umpire crew was just too juicy to resist devoting hours on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It just depends how much trouble he has to pitch out of and how hard he has to work. It just varies game to game. The four complete games none of the pitchers got into a lot of trouble that is why they were left in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

the max 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2005 Congrats to the White Sox. It's actually refreshing to watch baseball and not be pacing around the room, smoking or otherwise being too emotionally involved in the outcomes. This game was good, this series was good. Congrats to the White Sox. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Finch Report post Posted October 17, 2005 The Yanks couldn't even handle the Angels pitching staff, so I don't think they would've done any better. Arod choked....again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the max 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2005 If people are going to hop on A-Rod for choking, better start hopping on Vladdy Daddy. He laid a fucking egg. His only hit was an infield single. Start piling on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Finch Report post Posted October 17, 2005 Vlad sure did try swinging at everything like usual. Grab some pine with you boy A-Rod. They sure can hit in that Pepsi commercial. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fökai 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2005 Congratulations to the White Sox. Too bad that the only White Sock that I actually like, the one who truly deserves a ring after the career he had, will be the one that's sitting out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slayer 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2005 I just realized... if we get an Astros/White Sox WS, the sports' media sympathy meter will go through the roof. Of course we'll hear a shitload about the Black Sox, but we'll also probably be bombarded with Houston's hard-luck history as well as Biggs and Baggs being a long playing duo without a ring.

Precious Roy 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2005 Between Bags/Biggio, Clemens, the horrible start, Pettite, Berkman coming back from knee surgery, the young kids like Burke coming up big in the postseason, Lidge's dominance.......there's an assload of stories with the Astros The White Sox have been hyped all year, I just don't think it ever caught on. How funny is it that a couple weeks ago we were talking about the ChiSox collapsing and missing the playoffs? The Indians could have changed the course of history if they avoided that total meltdown Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2005 Now that Houston's involvement in the WS is almost inevitable, I think it's time to back them. As much as I dislike them, it's time to see Biggio and Bagwell get their rings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
