Dang the Tiggs pitcher has only thrown 30 pitches through 3 innings, Floyd has thrown 50. But we lead 1-0. Hope that we hit some more home runs today. Floyd has to keep putting up zeroes and get stronger as the game goes along.

Swing the bat Flowers! Takes way too many called 3rd strikes.
Flowers don't bloom until May after the April showers (strikeouts)
Free wifi! If you have a good seat, you can stream the game for people here trying to find a link to a live free. And YOU can be the announcer. I am pretty sure that you can do that with an iphone.
Personally, I love Apple products! Who starts all of these trends..mp3 players (ipod), smartphones (iphone), tablets (ipad)......APPLE! And now they have an app that slays the textbook. Sweet.

De Aza, Morel, Dunn, Konerko, Rios, Ramirez, Viciedo, Flowers, Beckham. Floyd
Hopefully good enough. Would have liked to see tlb in there.

No faith in April Floyd, hope I'm wrong.
Thankfully she (April) isn't pitching today. It is Gavin Floyd for the win.
If the White Sox win and Texas lose today, the White Sox will have the best record in the AL!
Pitching matchup in our favor. Floyd usually pitches well against Tigers. He had a 4.50 ERA in 3 starts against them last year. He has a career 3.68 ERA against them.
With the lefty pitching against us, I hope that Dunn gets the day off. Dunn is already 0-8 against LHP, but hitting a respectable .286 against RHP. Maybe start tlb in the field and put Viciedo or Paulie in DH. I wish.
Hope this rookie is nervous and the White Sox are patient. Early battle for first place. GO WHITE SOX!!!!!

Anyone know what Hector's walk out music was?
Don't know. But I know that we are on a 3 game winning streak.. 3-0 against AL Central. That is sweet.
Tomorrow we battle the Tiggs for the sole possession of first place. We are just 1/2 game out. Let us win tomorrow and give Ventura his first taste of 1ST PLACE as manager.

Itd have to be for a hit, there are two outs.
Yes, it wouldn't be a sacrifice squeeze. Wild pitch works 5-2 ...good guys.
