HOW CAN A TEAM COMPLETLY MELTDOWN WITH SO MUCH HOME RUN POWER AND OFFENSE? HOW ABOUT THIS, "CHOKE CITY". THE WHITE SOX HAVE BEEN GIVEN SO MANY OPPORTUNITIES TO EASILY WIN THIS DIVISION AND YET THEY HAVE PLAYED THE WORST BASEBALL OF JUST ABOUT ANY TEAM, NOT THAT THE TWINS HAVE ANYTHING TO BRAG ABOUT. THE SOX, WITH A 2 1/2 GAME LEAD, PLAYED FOUR GAMES WITH THE YANKEES, AND WHILE THEY WERE DOING THAT, MINNESOTA WAS LOSING 3 OF 4 TO THE DEVIL RAYS. SO, THE SOX, NOT TO BE OUTDONE LOSE 3 OF 4 TO THE YANKEES, STILL 2 1/2 GAMES AHEAD GOING INTO A 3 GAME SHOWDOWN WITH THE TWINKIES. WHILE REALLY ONLY NEEDING TO WIN JUST ONE GAME,THEY GET SWEPT IN A TREMENDOUS DISPLAY OF PATHETIC PITCHING, AND HITTING. OVER YOU SAY ? NOPE !
 SO THE TWINS FINISH WITH THREE AGAINST K.C. AT HOME, AND THE SOX GO HOME FOR THREE AGAINST THE TRIBE ONLY 1/2 GAMES BACK DESPITE BEING SWEPT BY THE TWINS. SO THE TWINS, TO EVERYONES AMAZEMENT, LOSS THE FIRST TWO, AND WHAT DO THE WHITE SOX DO, GET CREAMED IN THE FIRST TWO GAMES AGAINST CLEVELAND. THEY COULD HAVE BEEN BACK IN FIRST AND IT WOULD HABE BEEN OVER WITH, BUT LIKE A BLACK CAT WITH NINE LIVES THEY CAN STILL FINISH IN A TIE EVEN IF THE TWINS ACTUALLY CAN BEAT K.C. AS THE WHITE SOX WOULD HAVE A MAKE-UP GAME VS. DETROIT ON MONDAY, AND POSSIBLY A ONE GAME PLAYOFF WITH THE TWINS ON TUESDAY !!! WHAT AN EMBARRASSMENT BY THE WHITE SOX, AND A PROLONGED AGONY OF WATCHING THE A.L. CENTRAL TRIPLE AAA TEAMS. AH, NOT TO WORRY. THE WHITE SOX HAVE ALREADY SHOWN THEY CANNOT WIN A GAME PERIOD, AND WILL GET SPAMKED BY THE INDIANS AGAIN TODAY ENDING THE MISERY, UNLESS THE TWINS LOSE TOO, BUT I WOULDN'T COUNT ON THAT. ONE FINAL NOTE, WHY WOULD ANY MANAGER KEEP SENDING JAVIER VAZQUEZ OUT TO PITCH PERIOD, LET ALONE TWO HUGE GAMES IN THE SPAN OF A WEEK. THE GUY FLAT OUT STINKS. SEE YA WHITE SOX, DON'T WORRY THOUGH, YOU CAN WATCH THE CUBS IN THE PLAYOFFS.
