The White Sox are a very lucky team. With a 19-17 record going into today’s action, the Sox find themselves only four games out of first place behind the Detroit Tigers in the middle of May. Most of their games have been played on the road, and two home games have been postponed due to inclement weather. Their starters have been nothing short of terrific and have kept them in the division race. Their hitting, well, that’s another story. The team is ranked last in the American League with a batting average of .200. With Paul Konerko, Jermaine Dye and Joe Crede in the lineup, you know the Sox will start hitting one of these days. But when? What will it take to wake up their snoozing bats?
The solution to the White Sox ice-cold hitting may be just around the corner. Round one of the cross-town rivalry between the Sox and the Cubs takes place this weekend at Wrigley Field. If recent memory serves me, the Sox always seem to rise to the occasion when these two teams meet. This weekend’s series against the Cubs could be just the thing to get Sox bats swinging
