Is there any proof that Clippard and Romo aren't the same pitcher?

Think about this: have you ever seen them out on the mound at the same time? Makes you say "hmmmm."

Come to think of it... ever seen both of them on the mound at the same time?

Dammit!

[operation mindcrime]

Yeah Cruz!!!!!!

[70charger]

Extra base for the groundskeeper!

[Shaitan]

Bummer

[Mill1634]

White Sox may need a few new relievers tomorrow

[bighat]

We could use a little luck, put the ball in play and good things happen. Let's tack on here boys.

[operation mindcrime]

Get that runner home!!!!!!

Do bullpen mounds count?

 

But it does beg the question of what a pitch thrown off an almond joy looks like...

[USAFChief]

Dammit!

Ninja'd by a man my age!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

3-0 count to Rosario...

EDDIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bighat]

ROSIE! Mr. CLUTCH!

[PDX Twin]

CWS defense is a gift that keeps on giving...

[Mill1634]

Really good AB Eddie!

[Brock Beauchamp]

The Sox middle infield is not having a good night.

How do I know that you're really your age?

Not much of a ninja if he could tell it was you...

[bighat]

That White Sox 2nd baseman is having a helluva time out there. Not really his fault (except for that play in the 1st), but he's gotta be thinking "please don't hit the ball to me".

[70charger]

That was a straight-up good at bat by Eddie. Love to see those; just wish more of them would also happen with two outs.

[operation mindcrime]

Good plate appearance Garver! Good eye!!!!

[howeda7]

How do you let Cave hit here Rocco? Marwin time!

[Mill1634]

Surprised we didn't see a PH for Cave

[twins_89]

Cave doesn't look like he should ever hit against lefties. Both ABs tonight have been ugly.

[wabene]

Cave in center hasn't hurt and his bat plays. I like keeping Kepler in right for short stretches of Button ailments. A Cavetastrophie could happen out there but how often really?

[PDX Twin]

Miguel Salo

[bighat]

Awful strike 3 call on Sano there.

 

Still, three strikeouts...it's one of "those" games for the big fella. Let's hope he doesn't let it affect him mentally.

[70charger]

Can't get nothing out of bases loaded and no outs. Come on!

Maybe he took defensive lessons from Gold Glove nominee Robbie Grossman in the offseason.

Doubt it will, to be fair. He's not much of an "in the middle" kind of player. He's the type to strike out three times and hit two home runs. I wouldn't worry about him too much.
