Well, we tried to help the Tigers out, they just blew it. I’m sick of listening to people compare the 2005 White Sox to the 2006 Tigers. Yes, they both came out of nowhere, but the comparison’s will stop once the Yankees roll right over the Tigers in what will probably be a sweep.
On Friday, the White Sox held off a ninth rally to edge the Twins 4-3. A.J. Pierzynski singled home Ross Gload in the top of the ninth to make it 4-1 but the White Sox ended up needing that run because Bobby Jenks gave up two runs in the ninth inning but he held on to pick up the save. Freddy Garcia had a really nice start and he picked up his 17th win.
On Saturday, the White Sox doubled up the Twins. Tad Iguchi homered and drove in three runs and Jon Garland won his 18th in the 6-3 win.
The White Sox couldn’t keep it up and Javier Vazquez was roughed up in a 5-1 loss. So goes the White Sox season.
I’ll probably stay away from the postseason stuff because it still pisses me off. In a little bit I’ll continue the Season Lookbacks and the Frank Thomas retrospectives. Next years diary is the 1917 White Sox so I’m hoping to get the Lookbacks up through that season. We’ll see how I do.
