Game 18, Mariners at White Sox

Fister vs Garcia, 1:10 pm.
Garcia isn’t anything like the guy he used to be in Seattle. He’s now a command guy who throws a ton of junk, but he’s struggled with his command in his first two starts and the results have been predictably terrible. Fister tries to keep the run going, and he’ll have to keep the ball down if he wants to succeed. A righty heavy White Sox line-up should play into his favor, though.

Thanks idiot fan.
What, in all that is holy, would make any fan think they should pick up that ball? It was still rolling!!
Keep yelling Ozzie, gives DA more time to warm up.
Ozzie has no argument, Wilson would have been safe by a mile.
KOTCHMAN!!!
Looks like fan is about to be kicked out.
I hope they kick him out. (Now that we have the runs) Not that it doesn’t seem to do any good, since people keep doing it.
He can tell quite the story when he gets home though about how he made Ozzie freak out as well as 40,000 other fans.
Kotchman may not look as cool as Branyan, but hey, I’ll take it
Fox announcer just said the ball would have “triculated” down in the corner…
Even if it had, Wilson was going full tilt and would’ve made it.
Oooh, bouncy rolling thing! Must have! My precious!
Maybe he can move in with Bartman.
I heard Tim say “matriculate” which would be even wronger than triculate.
Is AA going to do that scary dark beard with the bald head thing? *shudder*
what a stud outing from fister in a homer happy ball park
Byrnes was safe BTW.
Wow and now that call is crucial.
Ruh roh. How big is that fan-interference call now?
Don’t do that again DA
DA’s got this.
Ozzie is REALLY mad about that call now.
But McCarver has a point in that a 2-run lead, vs. 1, might affect the pitcher’s approach.
How big was Byrnes near catch on the wall?
Props to Wak for using Wilson to pinch run. I was thinking that he’d have to leave Griffey in with Byrnes already in the game.
This is nerve-racking… I REALLY didn’t want to have to face Rios.
Sigh… back to .500
Wow
That was a room service fastball.
2 F###ing nights in a row!
That’s really irritating.
Bad.
Well that sucked.
Atta baby Aardsma. Way to blow another.
Ugh.
Pardon my language.. but this is un-fucking real.
Wow. I can’t believe we lost that
No. No. No. No.
Nice ! 2 gut wrenching bottom of the 9th losses in a row!
What joser said.
OK, what are these things on the side of the White Sox players necks? Because at first glance, I feel like they’re tiny bandages that make people hit walk off home runs. That can’t be legal.
Ugh.
Well, at least we know for certain that Fister is staying in the rotation when Lee gets back.
Run prevention, as implemented by the M’s FO this year, isn’t likely to be nearly as effective outside of Safeco Field, where you don’t have the luxury of making bad pitches and allowing long fly balls and when you don’t have the last at-bat. When the relievers have razor thin margins of error in virtually every game on the road, they’re going to make mistakes like this a fair amount. Get used to losing one-run and walk-off games on the road – unless they improve their offense, the M’s may set a record for those.
