So what the hell was the ump doing on that Hamilton play???

Damn....that Billy Hamilton kid is a hell of an athlete.

Dugout Club game by chance?  Ususally Sundays by now, but maybe some function.

Didn't look like it from the ticket page (promos/offers) -- just looks like they realize they aren't expecting to do well in ticket sales tomorrow so they are creating scarcity by not selling those sections, knowing people like me just want some cheap tickets.

Looks like he realized late that it would be a close play and was trying to get in a better position to see the base, but didn't get there quick enough.

No, I checked. It's Dugout Club.

Yay!  Magic # could be at 17 tonight after the Sux beat the Skanks!

Quite a play there.

Hopefully BJ Surhoff can join fellow late-90s guy Jeff Conine in the thread.

Big fail on his part.

I'm sure he realizes that. Or at least he will when he stops thinking he's Batman.

Hoping Norris can go 6 tonight.  Pitch count elevating a bit.

Yeah you're right, I was surprised it wasn't listed on the ticket page or promos page, I found it by googling "dugout club dates."

Well, gonna head and watch the rest of this one form the comfort of my bed....see you boys on the flip side!

I wonder how many Dugout Club tickets they'll sell for tomorrow? A Wed night right after school has started against the Reds doesn't seem like a hot-selling family night.

Stupid ass steal

Only Nick markakis and mat latos wear long sleeves in this heat and humidity. 😉

White Sox fans complained about De Aza's mental mistakes in the field and on the basepaths.

So, uh, that was silly.

That's probably why they are doing it. There are only two weekend series left, and they are Boston and New York. Even if there are fewer out-of-town fans for those games, those will be the family games. So they might as well do what they can to draw for a Wednesday.

I clicked into the wrong thread awhile ago...I think this guy approves of the earlier baserunning.

Nice movement from Hunter there.
