Scott Podsednik said he was thrilled to learn he was getting called up by the White Sox from Class AAA Charlotte. "It was exciting," he said Thursday on ESPN 1000. "As athletes and professionals, we all want to play in the big leagues and play on that biggest stage. It was exciting to talk with [Charlotte manager Chris] Chambliss [on Wednesday] and get the word that the big club is interested in bringing me back." He said he hasn't talked to anyone with the Sox about his new role. "I never talked with anybody from the club about that yet," he said. "I flew from Charlotte to Dallas last night. I don't know the role. I don't know exactly what I'm walking into, but I'm prepared either way."
