  1. Looking back the original ballpark was an ugly concrete monstrosity with a steep upper deck with 29 rows which you entered the UD at row 1. We sat in row 29 at the 1993 division clincher and after climbing the 29 rows we found our seats and we never left them until the game was over, we felt like we needed seat belts. On top of the ugliness some genius decided to fill the park with powder blue seats. At least the Sox braintrust saw the errors of their ways and in 2004 started almost a complete makeover of the place starting with lopping off 8 rows of the upper deck and replacing the blue seats with the green seats we have now. Other cosmetic changes were made down through the years and the place even though nothing could be done with the steep upper deck is now a very nice place to watch a game. I check the ratings of the ballparks every year and Sox Park moves up a bit step by step in the rankings where it’s not at the bottom anymore with the likes of the Trop and the Oakland Mausoleum.
  2. Eloy did the right thing, just a bit more right and it’s a hit but AV comes through!
  3. That was Jake’s ball, someone could have been hurt.
  4. We have a bullpen game tomorrow, we need Lance to shut the Halos down and give us 7 innings.
  5. Get him out of there, he’s throwing batting practice.
  6. When you’re retired and not golfing or reading, there is quite a bit of time to think and fret over the White Sox.
  7. Twins lose again, 40-42, what a joke and an embarrassment of a division.
  8. Pretty good except giving the GM job to Getz, I still haven’t figured out why he’s the Minor League director, what were his qualifications, oh yeah, he played for the Sox.
