From Joe Jackson to Frank Thomas, A Look at the Chicago White Sox, Both Past and Present

Okay, I finally figured out the “Joe Crede at shortstop” mystery. Thanks to Will Carroll’s Under the Knife, I found out that Pablo Ozuna, Tadahito Iguchi, and Juan Uribe were all nicked up, so Ozzie had to get very creative. As part of that, Joe Crede got dropped at shortstop. What’s even funnier was after he got ejected for the whole HBP/didn’t get out of the way call, Jermaine Dye came in to play shortstop.
I just picture it being like some of the softball games I’ve played in where you get slappy near the end, and everyone switches spots. Jermaine was probably the first to say “I can play shortstop,” so he got the chance.
