Sox vs. Dodgers -- Garcia vs. Dessens
The Dodgers are reeling. They've lost 4 in a row, including three to the Royals. If it wasn't for the heroics of Hee Seop Choi, it would be much worse. Unfortunately for the Sox, Hee Seop should find his way into the line-up, and if he doesn't, Jim Tracy should be fired on the spot.
Freddy Garcia pitches for the Sox, while Elmer Dessens heads to the hill for the Dodgers. A.J. Pierzynski has absolutely killed Dessens.
What I'm looking forward to
- What's Frank Thomas doing? He's homered in each of his last three games. Can Ozzie put him on the bench with both Jermaine Dye and Scott Podsednik playing well, and nowhere to put Carl Everett?
- Hee Seop strolling to the plate in a tight game, and Ozzie making the call to the pen for Neal Cotts, he of the reverse platoon split. Then Tracy subsequently making the move to the bench for one of his big righty bats.... LOL
- Garcia getting through the first inning without giving up a 3-run HR.
- 1959 jerseys.
- A White Sox Winner!

That's some nice action for the Dodgers. I think I'm gonna make a play.
O/U of 9. I'm going to parlay a small money bet of the Dodgers and the over.

Everett in Right
The SB Nation sites have been acting crazy today. I can't guarantee that we'll be up for the whole game...
I spent a lot of last nights game in the comments over at Dodger Thoughts

Boom Goes the Dynamite
1 out, Iguchi on 2nd. Paul Konerko is up, i was like alright, HE will hit the 2-run homer. Nope. HE gets out too. 2 out, runner on second. Everett is up. He then singles. Run scores. I am like Awesome, even if we lose, we got close. Its 3-2 game now. I am coming down my street when Aaron Rowand is up. Willie came in for Everett and stole on first pitch. I am like hell yeah, single ties the game. I hit the garage door opener and run in the house, and i turn the TV on. First pitch i see Rowand gets s basehit. I am going crazy, my dad walks in and i am like base hit tie game BABY! He does not care and he then leaves. Pryz is up and i REALLY gotta poop. I turn the volume up all the way and dash the bathroom to relieve myself. I do it in about 3 mins, record time if i do say so myself. I run to the T.V. and its 3-2 count, Hawk just said he fouled one off to stay alive. Next pitch.
BOOM!!!! It driven way back. I did not think it was gone but i figured Rowand would score since he was on the run. I was thinking oh man play at the plate. Then i realize "This ain't coming back". GONE, GAME OVER, SOX WIN! I go crazy running around my house, my dog is frieghtened. I am like SHIT! I look for my dad to yell in his face (Cub fan). He already left but who cares. I run to the T.V. and watch the reply as A.J. also took Rock's arm off at first base. I am going nutz and just had to post this. It was crazy as hell. I am extatic. Whoh that was great!!!
GO WHITE SOX!!!!!

HOLY CRAP!!!
23 over for the 1st time, and just like last weekend when the Dodgers took 2 of 3 from the Twinkies: Thank you Hee Siop Choi!!!! Your half-assed effort at AJ's foul ball gave him the extra swing he needed. The ex-Cub factor at work for the Sox 2 weekends in a row!
SOX WIN! SOX WIN!
(Can you tell I'm excited?)
