Just 15 months ago, Daniel Hudson was finishing up his season at Old Dominion.

On Monday, he pitches the biggest game of the season for the White Sox.

The fifth-round draft choice one year ago in June, Hudson won the job of facing the Twins in a do-or-die week for the Sox because manager Ozzie Guillen likes the way he has pitched in only 5 2/3 innings.

The 10 greatest games in Metrodome history
4. At the time, it looked like a great moment in franchise history

Sep. 25, 2008: Twins 7, White Sox 6 (10). For all the national media’s talk about the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry, it’s worth noting that the Twins and White Sox have enjoyed a nice little back-and-forth in the new millennium. Both teams frequently find themselves in the thick of the pennant race while far exceeding expectations. White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen famously referred to the Twins as “piranhas” for their relentlessness.

2008 was one of the years that both teams surprised the game’s punditry by battling for first place late into the season. With six games left to play, the Sox came to town for a three-game series. Minnesota seemingly needed a sweep, as the Sox led them by 2.5 games. Though Minnesota’s odds seemed long, the piranhas lived up to their nickname, winning the first two games, and devouring most of Chicago’s once comfortable lead in the process. Whoever won this game would enter the final series of the year in first place.

At first, it looked like an easy Chicago win, as they jumped out to a 6-1 lead. Ah, but one should place a lead so meaty before a school of piranhas. They won’t consume it in one swallow, but they’ll devour it bite by bite until nothing remains. That’s exactly what happened here.

Minnesota scored twice in the fourth, once in the sixth, and twice in the eighth, and the game headed into overtime tied at 6-6. After the piranhas ate away the Sox’s lead, they proceeded to finish off the visitors, scoring the winning run in the 10th and securing first place.

The division was Minnesota’s to lose—which is precisely what they did. Sure, the Twins may be piranhas, but the South Siders weren’t a bunch of guppies.

Not much for me to cheer for baseball wise

but Im awfully excited about the rotation next year. How do you guys feel about that from a baseball prospective?

From the prospective of a baseball:

I quite enjoy the prospect of being thrown by these “good guys” in black next season.

Update on eerie '83-'09 Sox parallels.

In ’83 at this point, the Sox were 91-61, after sweeping a doubleheader at home against the Twins to go 17.5 games in first place.

Seriously … this is getting like Twilight Zone weird.

wow. that is weird.

 and roy smalley was….smalley… and colon is a fat ass. its like that old tv show with the wily british historian-scientist… “CONNECTIONS”

It was even more eerie when we had C. Richard,

since he was a dead ringer for Britt Burns. And Jerry Dybzynski and Scotty Pods could be twins re: baserunning. It IS weirdly parallel.

We’re a pack of a-holes. And my tradition of contributing absolutely nothing to this site... continues.

and we have great pinch-hitters now...

.. much like jerry hairston back in ‘83….AND jerry hairston JR. almost spoiled buehrle’s no-hitter in (‘07)—right?? or was it a different ex-player’s child??—and kicked our ass in the bronx….which connects to buehrle’s perfect game being the breach in the levee protecting ’09—-AND we got our asses kicked by the orioles in 83, much like right-before the road trip from hell…

           this is F****** nuts.

Has Bartolo Colon been suspended?

Or did they just revoke his Old Country Buffet discount privileges?

went to the game last night.

most exciting part was seeing maier and bettencourt collide 20 feet away from me.
the majority of the crowd seemed to belong in the movie idiocracy while the remainder would have been at home in the cartoon the far side.
going tonight to see hudson face the piranhas. i’m afraid i may have to nickname him “chum”.

i've been using it liberally recently. it's good to have a different audience, though.

last friday i chucked a memo back in the face of a junior associate and told the other person in the room that “this motherfucker is making $150, $170K and she ain’t going to be producing shit like this again. i’m going to make sure she earns her money.” she spent the weekend collating.
