Game 80 Open Thread - White Sox at Royals
Chicago White Sox at Kansas City Royals, Jul 4, 2009 1:10 PM EDT
Happy Independence Day!

Here’s hoping Hooch has the groundball mojo working and that the Royals field enough of them cleanly to stay in the game.
As for me, I’m working the local Little League All-Star tournament starting today, so somebody please throw in some ridiculous non sequiturs on my behalf.
...and now for something completely different

Zack's interview last night was
the song of a guy who is barely hanging in there. His stuff about how AJ always gets hits off of him. His ambivalence about being pulled ridiculously early.
His showing is the only thing keeping him from another 2005 right now

Joel, you kidding me? Starting a guy who is coming off of a 2 hit game against a LHP? Who do you think manages this team? Billy Martin Yogi LaRussa?

wait so TPJ and Luis Hernandez aren't both playing today
wow, did Hillman learn from getting shut out with those two in the lineup?
He should be fired for that lineup actually. I don’t care what is up with Teahen you threaten to fight him if he can’t get into the lineup
Don't worry
Both are still available for pinch hitting duty today.

Miggy blocks a ball in the dirt?
And draws a walk? We may need to run a DNA check on that guy behind the plate.
