Pierzynski strikes out and the Angels start to go off the field, but the umpire rules that the ball hit the dirt which it didn't. Next batter...White Sox wins the game. Watch the highlights because you will be hearing about this all night and tomorrow. It was utter bullshit.

To Scocia's credit, he isn't blaming that on the loss, he's saying that his team didn't play well. But he's clearly PISSED.

That stinks though, Toups. You really hate to lose a game like that because of a blown call by the ump. BTW, how did he see the ball bounce in the ground?

That was a very important win. If they win the first game, more times than not, they win the series. I hope they do this time. Clemens is on the mound tonight, and if they can take him out, they may be done for.

Peter Gammons was actually making excuses for Pettite, saying that he got hit with a foul ball in BP, and that he did not get over the flu that he had.

The Cards didn't have Carpenter last year, and Mulder was not on the team. That is what's different this year, and if Reggie keeps hitting like he is, and the other guys come around, with that starting pitching, who can beat them?

Funny you say that... based on the past (not for NCLS, but ACLS), the loser of the first game has usually gone to win the series...

I know the Yankees have been winning the first games in their past three play off series and have been losing the series themselves so I think 1st game win is always not much.

But I'm happy for the White Sox... kind of on even ground btwn the astros and cardinals.

Well, Mulder did his job. Too bad he had no offense behind him.

Sanders is ruled to have a sprained back, and is day-to-day.

How in God's Earth can you win 100 games during the regular season and then only score 1 run in a LCS game?! These guys STINK!

Congrats to the ChiSox! 4 straight compelete games by the pitchers. That is just unbelievable.

And St.Louis is in trouble. I don't see them winning when they have to win 3 straight games against Andy, Roy and Roger. Buh-bye St.Louis!

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
    • I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used. 
    • tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.
    • I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.
    • When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.

    • The stories are awful. I'm not enjoying any of them. All I'm left with is Sally in a plastic dress.
