The Mighty Mite

What’s the word on Tauchman, IL or day by day or the White Sox way.

Wintrust Field at Armour Square would have worked for me but I’m not big on corporate names for Pro Sports venues so any new stadium should be White Sox Park.

Yep, passed through Placida last week on the way to Boca Grande.

I figured we were close in age.

Of course the Black Sox scandal and then there was Chris Sale imitating Edward Scissorshand. Who can forget Disco Demolition Night where we had to forfeit the second game. Then there was the game Bill Veeck thought it was a great idea for the Sox to wear shorts.

Well yeah, I’ll be 80 pretty soon.

I’m still mad at him for not starting Billy Pierce in the Series but game 2 was the key game which I attended. The Sox were rallying in the 7th inning but 3B coach Tony Cuchienello was the goat of the series when he sent slow runner home with the tying run with no outs and he was out by so much he didn’t bother sliding. Lopez did make a blunder starting Early Wynn in game 6 on 2 days rest, at the time most thought it was a good idea, Wynn was the Cy Young winner in 59 but unfortunately he was gassed and the Dodgers jumped all over him early and the Series was over.

So true, Ricketts ruined Wrigley with those scoreboards and also messing up the bleachers as the flow of the rightfield and leftfield seats are off kilter with the centerfield section. I remember that Kingman homer, when last seen it was rolling north down Kenmore Ave.. PS We lived in what is now Wrigleyville in 1950-1952, went to Kindergarten and 1st grade at LeMoyne grammar school which is just east of the Addison L station on Fremont Ave.

One of the great mysteries of our time.

Al Lopez who I consider the best Sox manager of all time.

Because it's becoming clear that Venable doesn't have a clue.

I'm old school and l will never understand it.

Quero is a winner.

All I've thought about this game was the Rays coming back last night and winning 12-8 after trailing the O's 8-0.

He looked like he wanted to be somewhere else, time to grant his wish.

Game tied on a Beni grand slam.

Holy s%*#, where did that come from.

We need a shutout in game 2.

Ozzie said 4-20 in one run games.

Another 1 run loss.

I agree, with a bunch of youngsters with a rebuild going on we needed a veteran manager not a rookie manager. The thing is any good veteran manager probably doesn’t want anything to do with this dysfunctional organization.

When he hit it and we heard it, I thought it was flyin to the Ryan.

Teel has to calm down, too much nervous energy.
