Series Preview: White Sox @ Rangers

Texas, the American League West Leaders, are coming off of a 6-4 road trip against Kansas City, Chicago, and Boston. MORE

against detroit, ancd iirc thats when the wining streak started and hawk shaved his head.
It was after that game. I remember we lost that rain-delayed game 10-9, in similar fashion to tonight.

I still don't know how the Heat got to the Finals. Is the East that pathetic? Probably.
I'd deem it similiar to saying the Big Ten had a bad basketball year, since they didn't peform well in March.
QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jun 11, 2006 -> 10:30 PM)
This is actually one of the easier losses of the year. We didn't beat ourselves today. Freddy did that himself. We took the series, and that's good enough.
Agreed.

If Barrett drops his appeal right before the Cubs start their Interleague and serves then, I'm going to be so pissed.
Why?

Not nearly enough Hair on that Crede...
Haha, I just remember that game well. I went to 2 games that month and both were walkoff victories. That Crede walkoff was the last day we were in 1st that season.
QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 10, 2006 -> 07:51 PM)
It will be nearly impossible for him to hit .250 for the year, maybe we should just shoot him now.
I have no idea how Crede survived hitting .239 in '04.

An excerpt from a Dave Van Dyck article in the Saturday trib:
I read that. I was confused. The Philly fans or the Sox fans?

Big Frank just hit a 2 run shot off of Mike Mussina in the 1st inning. He now has 16 HRs.
Athletics vs Yankees
It was an 11 pitch AB too. Impressive.
QUOTE(G&T @ Jun 10, 2006 -> 11:58 AM)
It was reported on the Score during White Sox weekly that the Sox have inquired about Soriano, Brady Clark, and Reggie Sanders. Nothing too surprising. Sanders is too expensive he says. Soriano isn't too great of a possibility despite decent defense. Clark is most intriguing, but that's all the info he has on that.
Offman also thinks the Sox will make a bullpen deal before an outfield deal. But I didn't hear any names.
Good.

I hope there's some rain, as Jim Thome, for one, seems to like playing in the rain against Cleveland.
Agreed. And I hope Buehrle's wife gave him some buttered toast for breakfast. He pitches better when he eats buttered toast.
