Default agreed

I'm pulling for the White Sox in this series and even I can't agree with that call. He was out - I didn't see the ball bounce plus the umpire called him out before he ran to the base (he at least clearly motioned. The runner said he didn't hear himself called out).

Chicago got a *huge* break there.

Unfortunately, Yankee fans seem intent on blaming everyone but their team for their losses when A-Rod choked, Randy Johnson was erratic all year, etc.
Of course it is the Yankees who were responsible for their losses. All I was saying is that the umpire made a terrible call at first and that ended a inning where the Yankees would have had bases loaded.

Also, I commended the Anaheim fans. Making enough noise so the outfielders couldn't hear one another is one of the ways fans can help their home team. Fans in any stadium would, and should, do the same thing.

Default Pujols

That homer Pujols hit last night was a monster. Off Lidge nonetheless.

Default 14!!

I went to bed after the Astros couldn't score with the bases loaded in the 9th. I'm rooting for the White Sox but was sort of hoping Houston would at least make things interesting.

What could be better than being down in the series 2-0, with men on and two outs?? This is what makes baseball great

They gotta start these games earlier. I had to go to bed at some point, so I missed all the good stuff.

Default White Sox kinda lucky

They got the calls in game 2 and Houston's error helped them as well. Last night Houston blew it in the 9th, you have to be able to sacrifice that run in. Was pulling for the Sox, but hoping for 6 or 7 games.
