CrossTown Classic Continues

With the Sox pulling off a long 13 inning victory and the Cubs coming off a tough sweep from the Detroit Tigers, these 2 teams get ready to pull out all the stops and face off again in this series.  With the all time series tied at 34-34, these two teams are looking to catch up in their divisions and see if they can start a win streak to pull them closer to their hot division leaders.

With the Sox now 6 games behind Detroit and Detroit on a 7 game win streak, they are looking to keep the W's rolling and hope for a little magic from the Houston Astros.  Hopefully the Sox can continue their hard hitting ways at home as we have seen the past 2 days... The Sox could use some more wins at home, as that is where they have struggled this year, after going 54-28 at home in 2008.

In the first game of this series it will be Jose Contreras (2-6, 5.23 ERA) taking the bump for the White Sox as he will be facing Randy Wells (1-3, 2.57 ERA) of the Cubs.

I will predict this game as a White Sox winner, with the way Jose has been pitching after his minor league stint and the score will be 6-2, White Sox Winner!

i didn't like this post nearly as much.

looks like this guy shot his wad in the first post and came back too quickly and couldn’t finish. didn’t learn anything new, no unique take, pretty generic. felt like an AP game recap. 1/2 dismembered hoof.
