A ball game is won in 9 innings. The Sox deserve to win if they keep beating the Angels at home. The only complete games any starting pitchers have thrown so far in the playoffs have been Buerhle and Garland against the Angels.
Anyway, this is a really foolish thread. If Iguchi were more focused on his fashion like Kazuo Matsui or Shinjo, he wouldn't be such a success. He's married and has a kid. He's not trying to impress any ladies.

I agree that it is silly to talk about players' hairstyles, but I just think that Iguchi's haircut is the worst haircut in MLB since Pete Rose's bowl cut in the 1970s. Iguchi should stop getting his hair cut at Supercuts. He looks like Ross Perot.
Just so you know, Kaz Matsui and Shinjo are both married with kids also, but it doesn't stop them from being fashionable. Being fashionable didn't help them any in MLB, but you have to give them some credit for having some flair.
I do agree with you about the ChiSox - if they do keep on winning at Anaheim, then they do deserve to win the ALCS. But it's unfortunate that that one call might've changed the whole series.

Talking about hair styles, Kazuo Matsui has the best hair styles ever. I liked his blonde Japanese mullet. It looked so cool on him.

This is all very amusing. I don't even notice the hairstyles because whenever I watch ballplayers in action they're always wearing caps.
I take next to no interest in what these guys say, do, or wear off the field. It's what they do on the field that really counts.

But it's still fun to talk about it. Love him or hate him, Shinjo gives the Fighters (what used to be) badly needed publicity. Heck, even Ichiro has flair.

Fact: Iguchi's hair is cut by his wife, that may explain why it's not the coolest in town.

That's hilarious! I did not know that. Flowbee, anyone? Iguchi and his wife should do infomercials for Flowbee and talk about how much money they've saved on haircuts.
I watched the Marines' beer celebration last night and I'm sorry, but Bobby V's hair is really bad. I think he's trying to copy Steve McQueen's hairstyle, but his hair is more Sean Connery and Burt Reynolds when they were losing their hair.

Come on, give Bobby a break. After you're 50, there's not much you can do about your hair, or what's left of it. (And it is possible that's not his real hair.)
Methinks one player who does have to do something about his hair is Igawa of the Tigers. Great pitcher, terrible hair. My hand reaches out towards a pair of scissors everytime I see him pitch.
When Hoshino SD was manager of the Tigers, a reporter asked him what he thought of the David Beckham boom in Japan, to which he replied something to the effect of "Everybody thinks David Beckham is handsome? You gotta be kidding me! We got better looking guys on the Tigers, Igawa for example." I laughed till I cried.

Tad Iguchi's hair is pretty bad also. The "2-block look" (long on top, buzzed on the sides and back) was popular in the late 1980s and early '90s, especially in Japan, but that hairstyle went away (thank god) over 10 years ago. The only people you see with that hairstyle nowadays are people in Korea and Asian-Americans in the U.S., but even then the number of people who sport that look are few and far between.
BTW, I like Iguchi, but I hope the ChiSox don't win the ALCS, just because they don't deserve it. That call in Game 2 (Pierszynski's strikeout) was one of the worst calls I've ever seen. The other umpires have no backbone. They should've had the guts to reverse the call.
