White Sox Heading to First World Series Since 1959

by @ 6:28 am. Filed under 2005 ALCS, 2005 Season

For the fourth straight game, and the fourth straight win, a White Sox starter has gone the distance. It’s been almost a week since the Sox used a reliever.

Jose Contreras gave up three runs on only five hits. The White Sox got on the board first with a sac. fly by Joe Crede in the second inning but the Angels matched that with a run in the third. The Sox then took the lead back on a Jermaine Dye double in the fifth, only to yield the lead to the Angels in the bottom half of the inning.
Joe Crede was the man. He hit a solo shot in the seventh to tie the game up, then he drove in a run in the eighth to give the Sox the lead for good. The White Sox got two insurance runs in the ninth that eventually weren’t needed.

The Astros are up 3-1, so they’re our likely opponent. If that’s the case, we should see some great pitching.

The White Sox are four wins away from winning their first World Series since 1917. Go Sox!!
