INEXCUSABLE!

  • Throw it out, throw it all out. The first game of the double header yesterday, the 22-4 win, throw it out. What could have been a very good day turned into absolute shambles. Instead of talking about Nomar's big day and another gem from Lowe, we have to discuss yet another ninth inning loss and collapse from the bullpen.

    With the Y-----s losing yesterday to the Tribe we should have gained a game and a half. Instead due to continued ineptness, we get a whole friggin half game, whoopee fricking do!

    A joke an absolute joke. There is no redemption for a game like that, if you want to be the best you can't allow that to happen. Not only has it happened 3 of the last 4 games, but yesterday was against the WORST hitting team in the entire game.

    I'm absolutely seething right now, no words, all I want to do is throw my computer thru the wall and hope it lands somewhere in the Sox bullpen where it can injure everyone and force management to do something about this mess.

    We CAN'T win with this pen. PERIOD!!!!!
