  1. I hope we carry this momentum against the Cubs next week
  2. I LOVE HOW FRUSTRATED THE YANKEES APPEAR TO BE RIGHT NOW
  3. Just curious. Is Steve Dahl throwing out the first pitch?
  4. Doc Ellis pitched a no hitter under the influence of heroin so who knows
  5. I meant that they dont have the guts to make the firing decisions that need to be made. I am not a Reinsdorf supporter.
  6. When did the White Sox brass actually fire anyone? It took pressure from season ticket holders to convince Robin Ventura to step away and Ozzie quit. The last White Sox manager I remember to be summarily canned in the middle of the season was Tony Larussa who went on to great success elsewhere. The White Sox hierarchy is one of kinder gentler nature.
  7. Did Chuck Tanner want to quit the White Sox manager job or did Bill Veeck force him out. I recall seeing a photo of the two of them talking amiably and the next thing I heard is that Tanner was gone. I know Tanner was from Pa. and would take the Pirates job if it was available.
  8. I wouldnt say that Paul Richards was a bad manager, but he was so miserable during the 1976 season he admitted to a reporter that he was looking forward to the end of the season.
  9. Cant be much worse than Castillo. Looking forward for a fresh new player in there. Lets see what he has
  10. Castillo struck out 4 times yesterday.
  11. Toward the end of his Sox managerial career, he always seemed to be looking back at the crowd instead of paying attention to the game.
  12. If I heard Jason Benetti right last night, Sox ranked 7th in the league for scoring runs.
  13. All I remember was that after they both showed up at some baseball function, Harry lost it and had to be restrained from punching out Reindorf. I think Reinsdorf was more embarrassed than anything. I also remember Harry on the David Letterman Show. At the end of his interview Dave wanted to get a rise out him so he asked how the White Sox were doing. Harry replied sarcastically " Oh they got their new stadium" and something else that was unflattering about the White Sox. Dave smiled and said "oh Harry". Harry not only hated the White Sox owners he hated anything having to do with the White Sox
