it's all about that 10 game road trip in late september
4 @ NY
3 @ KC
3 @ MIN
somehow, some way, the Sox have to have a lead over the twins going into that last 3 games of the trip. Behind looking to make up ground? Ugh. Tied still...big edge to minny. I just hope the Sox are still in it at that point.
edit: while the Sox are playing those 3 games at KC, twinkies will be playing 3 (of 4) at Tampa, so that could help the cause.
