Anyone got a match? The White Sox sure could use something to light their fire.
After they pulled off a remarkable three-game sweep of the division-leading Tigers a few weeks ago, I thought this team had finally turned a corner and were on their way to an extensive winning streak.
False alarm.
Instead, they split a four-game series with the last-place Kansas City Royals, then lost two of three to the Minnesota Twins. Granted, the Sox were playing in the Metro Dome in Minneapolis where the Twins have the best home record in the major leagues. Now they have lost the first game of a critical four-game series against the Tigers and are being shut out in the second game tonight.
It's maddening to watch the Sox play this season. They have played like World Champs at times, and other times, they have looked like World Chumps. How is it possible to be so good, yet play so inconsistently? Argggghhhh!
I suppose things could be worse. At least these Sox aren't of the red variety that may have dropped out of the AL East race after losing a five-game series to the Yankees.
