I'll be honest, I'm optimistic still. But I do think there's a better chance Minnesota comes back than Chicago.

Damage control please Carrasco. EDIT: Well that's not damage control.

6-0 Royals.

Liriano has 78 pitches after 4 innings.

4 run innings by the Sox and Royals, I'll take it.

4-0 ROYALS!!!!

Yay for a sac bunt.

That Ryan Shealy for KC could be a stud. He has a lot of power.

3-0 KC

QUOTE (Sox It To Em @ Sep 26, 2008 -> 06:44 PM) Kc has 1st and 3rd nobody out. Hasn't said anything yet.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Sep 26, 2008 -> 07:41 PM) NL Pitchers laugh at the sox and their bunting. So does the Twins organization.

The Cabrera's suck at fielding tonight.

Just got home from the game, it's around 2, and I have to be up at 6:30. Even after gaining a 6-1 lead, I could still sense the Twins were going to comeback and win, and obviously they won. But that's not what I'm going to talk about. I'm going to talk about what happened after the game involving the fans. During the game the fans weren't too bad, I'd hear an occasional fan talk smack to me but most wouldn't since the Sox had the lead most of the game. I'm not a person to go around and start picking fights or whatever, I'm basically the same person personality wise who posts on here. I try not to piss people off and I keep to myself. After the Twins won in the 10th I have never been so humiliated and harrassed in my entire life. Probably two hundred fans, maybe even closer to 300 made remarks to me about how the White Sox suck and how all White Sox fans are a bunch of losers and so on. Some people would bump into me or try to shove me because I was in my Sox jersey and Sox hat. I'm not sure if the beer was directed towards me or not, but I was hit with beer. Worst of all someone came up to me and said the Sox suck and flipped my hat off my head. I caught it and turned around and was going to push him or knock his hat off but my friend stopped me. This was easily the longest half hour of my life. I've never had a desire to physically hurt someone and I've never been in a fight other than with my brother, but I just wanted to beat that guy up so bad. Tonight this rivalry became much more than just a baseball rivalry to me. And in a way it was more just because I don't like Minnesota sports teams in general. But now it has become personal with me. I've never been to U.S. Cellular Field, so I don't know how Sox fans act to their opposition after a game, but with what I saw these Twins fans doing to me and other Sox fans was disgraceful. They do not deserve a division title at all. I'm sure most of their fans don't act like that, but still. I'm really effected by what happened after the game. The game doesn't even seem to matter to me because of the terrible antics that happened afterwords. I have no desire ever to go to that dump they call home, and if I go to a game in their new stadium I'm not going to feel comfortable wearing my Sox gear anymore, and I feel ashamed that I don't want to wear anything Sox because of tonight. I just don't want to be laughed at, embarassed, and humiliated again like I was tonight. I honestly have no clue if any White Sox personnel read this site, but if any do I hope they realize that the season isn't over, win the next 5 and they're in. Don't let a team with a bunch of scumbag fans win this division. The Sox have been in first for most of the year, they deserve to win it and will win it if they play well agianst Cleveland. I hope Kansas City can make some magic happen. There isn't anything else I'd rather see than dejected Twins fans right now.

I'm going to the game, so I kind of have to watch it......and put up with the Twins fans.

I'd trade for Ichiro in a heart beat and put him in center field and bat lead off. It won't happen but it's fun to think about.

I hate to bring up the injury topic again but I'd be willing to bet we wouldn't be in this situation with a healthy Quinten and a healthy Crede. Uribe has done a good job as a replacement for Crede but no one can replace Quinten's production this year. That being said we don't have those two and won't have them tonight. I want Dye to play but it'd be ok with me if he doesn't. He's been in an enormous slump right now. If we want to win tonight, we can't be looking for the long ball, it needs to be base hit after base hit in order to win. I can't belive I'm saying this but I hope Swisher is in the line up tonight.

game in Minnesota.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 09:01 PM) If I was in that locker room, I'd punch the first person who made a sound. haha I wouldn't. There's already enough problems in the dugout, I wouldn't want to divide the team even more.

Start it up my fellow Michigan fan. Have no fear Gavin Floyd, this is the same team you almost threw a no hitter against. Stay strong and put this team on your shoulders.

Should I even bother taking the 2 hour drive up to Minneapolis to see the White Sox play? I've bought tickets already so I won't be able to get a refund for. The Twins are playing unbelievably well while the White Sox are just terrible. Plus I can't stand the fans there. They rip into any opposing fan and I don't feel like dealing with them with the lack of confidence I have in the White Sox for tomorrow's game. But since I already have the tickets, and haven't seen the Sox yet this year, it'd be nice to see and maybe hope for a win.

Ron Coomer: "The Southsiders know what it's like to play in the dome now." Are you kidding me? They've been playing there for years. Cabrerra, Dye, Thome, Konerko, Griffey, Swisher, Pierzynski, Uribe, etc. have played in the dome numerous times.

Nearly everyone is slumping. Try this lineup tomorrow, the worst it can do is have the same results as the previous 2 games. 2B Ramirez SS Cabrerra CF Griffey DH Thome 1B Konerko RF Dye LF Swisher C Pierzynski 3B Uribe
