Maybe not as romantic a sound as some aroundhere would like, but the Chicago's little-brother team now has something big-brother who lives a bit further North can only dream about.
The White Sox just buzz-sawed through the Astro's lineup again with it's own offense providing just enough runs to keep it interesting. Well, maybe not so interesting if you believe the TV ratings numbers. But honestly, if you were tuning in to Desperately Slutty HoesBags at the expense of the World Series, you're not really a baseball fan.
Poor Brad Lidge was called upon again to take a bullet for the Astros and he did, this time dying a death of a thousand slices. Really, only a slap, a bunt and a bleeder but hey, they all count.
Pitching and Defense, the White Sox led with it and ended in style with it. SS Juan Uribe's two defensive gems to end the game were truly remarkable. The Jeter-esque dive in the stands would have been great as a walk-off P6, but you can't be too picky here.
With any luck, Sox fans will be able to enjoy the moment before the Paulie Sweepstakes lead the hot-stove chatter around here. After all, the next championship might not come around for another 88 years or so. Who knows?
Congrats to the White Sox. 2005 World Champions. I don't care what Bobby Valentine says.
