A little self-confidence can go a long way -- or so said the White Sox first baseman.
“If we truly believe we can do it, then we’ll do it. It’s just a matter for us to believe it,” said Abreu through interpreter Billy Russo. “We have been dealing with a lot of injuries and other stuff, but that’s baseball.
“We just have to believe that we’re able to do that, that we’re able to get into that really good stretch and compete. But we have to believe in ourselves.”
That push to believe from the team leader, expressed previously to his teammates, was followed by a 10-5 loss to Arizona, marking the third straight setback for the White Sox. It dropped them below .500 at 63-64and left them at 2-8 over the last 10 games.
