vs. WHITE SOX, 9/07

[Malike]

Someone is going yard here.

Dunn is thinking about retirement, he wants this game over ASAP.

[WEAVERMAN]

The Orioles have a great offense? They have great HR hitters but not a great offense, if I can be bold enough to separate the two.

[waroriole]

Bad karma PH for Viciedo.

[weams]

Eeking out wins against the WS is one thing, but we're gonna get whooped when we play real teams.

I've never seen a more frustrating team.

Just score a freaking run.

You and my wife must be texting.

[eddie83]

Me too. 4 day weekend.

Great line.

[Frobby]

Yet people always point out that we are above average in these situations. They are incredible with RISP and those situations when we don't need more runs. But in close games when we need clutch hits they are absolutely atrocious.

On the season, what you say is utterly untrue. But in the last couple of week, it is true.

[JTrea81]

Machado, Davis and Jones. Now is the time to swing for the fences and these are the guys that can do it.

[caesarod]

Me too. 4 day weekend.

Bahdumpah!

[scOtt]

Even Valencia has three hits, but grounded out w/ RISP.

Is why RISP is a worthless stat. Akin to batting average.

[waroriole]

Someone is going yard here.

I think so too. My money is on Jones.

[weams]

Someone is going yard here.

I can guarantee you that the Orioles will be swinging that way, and not trying to manufacture a run.

[slakattack]

Bosox tacking on insurance runs

On the season, what you say is utterly untrue. But in the last couple of week, it is true.

Actually it's been true pretty much since July. It's HRs or nothing - no doubles, sac flys - just swinging for the fences.

About 25 other teams would've demolished us today. Just pathetic hitting all around. Even if we make the playoffs, we are going to get walloped if we can not exceed in situational hitting.
