Black Sox Blog

My favorite White Sox is Joe Crede. Seeing him play the way he did yesterday was simply awesome. I’ve been hoping he’d turn into the 30 homer, gold glove third basemen that some thought he might, however, if he can nab a World Series MVP instead, it would be even sweeter.

Three huge defensive plays at third and a solo homerun were his contributions. Jose Contreras pitched well, as did Cotts and Jenks out of the pen. And Jermaine Dye gets an honorable mention for putting the Sox on the board in the first inning.

And while you hate to bad things happen to an icon like Roger Clemens, it’s also a good thing we won’t have to face him the rest of the series (speculation).

2-2 in the fifth. Go Sox.
