May 1, 200520 yr The Sox had led at some point in all 25 games this season...I think most of us are well aware of that. The 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers are tied for first...they won 98 games in 55 and the Series. The 1998 San Diego Padres are #3 on the list...they got to the World Series that year and were swept by the Yankees. Looks like good company to me. f*** the h4t3rz
May 1, 200520 yr It's a very interesting stat, but beyond the obvious ( that leading a game is better than trailing ), I'm not sure how big of a deal that is.

May 1, 200520 yr I just think it's kind of cool...It's definitely a rare feat. 2005 White Sox 25 1955 Dodgers 25 1998 Padres 22 1974 Dodgers 22 1952 Giants 22
May 1, 200520 yr Just like many of us, I've been aware of this all season. Hopefully there is no curse since we're getting recognized for it.
May 1, 200520 yr QUOTE(Chisoxmatt @ May 1, 2005 -> 05:26 PM) We have almost always scored early this season. I'd say thats the main reason. yeah getting out 1-0 continues the streak whether we win or lose.
May 1, 200520 yr And this is mostly due to the top of the order getting on, getting over, and getting in. Good job, and a great testiment to the work that Pods and Tad have done at the top of the order.

Good job, and a great testiment to the work that Pods and Tad have done at the top of the order. Those two are why the Sox offense has had any production whatsoever. I don't want to say they will be what gets us to the playoffs...because they won't be, that will be the pitching...but without them, we really don't have a shot.
