White Sox catcher, AJ Pierzynski, leaped up in celebration after the last out in the Chi Sox 7-3 victory over the Diamondbacks. The White Sox, previous to that game were 0-12 with a tie when Pierzynski was behind the plate. Although the White Sox were below .500, they are confident they completed their Spring Training mission. Ozzie Guillen has been very impressed with the squads situational hitting. “You always want to win,” Pierzynski said. “At the same time, it’s not the most important thing. Everyone here looks like they are climbing, and that’s what you want at this time of spring.” They are not worried about their record, pointing at the 2001 Seattle Mariners who had a 13-19 record before the regular season. Don’t except the White Sox to have such a record with AJ behind the plate come regular season.
