    Bags used to be able to hit that ball a mile.

    Contreras seems to be settling down. Nice to see Bagwell get some at bats in the World Series.

    Wow Taveras came REALLY close to catching that ball. I never heard of Joe Crede before this season.

    Well hopefully we can get into the Sox pen also. If we lose this game, I hope it's close and not a laugher. The Sox laughed at the Angels the whole series.

    They just said Crede is playing with two herniated discs in his back. Ouch...

    Uribe reminds me of Tony Eusebio.

    Huge DP.

    I don't think Wandy will last much longer. Time to get someone up in the BP.

    Alright...here's what's going to happen:

    The Astros will pull a Muhammed Ali-style rope-a-dope...they will hang around and make the White Sox expend a lot of energy and win it in the late innings.

    At least I hope so. Big double play!

    Go Astros!!!

    To be honest, I've never heard of most of the guys on the White Sox before these playoffs. They're just not a team on my radar. I know of Freddy Garcia, Contreras, and Carl Everett, but that's really about it for me.

    Also, I think somebody mentioned this earlier, but that crowd in Chicago blows. They're acting like it's some throwaway game against Tampa in June.

    Wow, that was a quick inning. :mad:

    Contreras seems to be settling down. Not good news for the Stros.

    Konerko is another name, has been there for a while, he was a big time prospect in the Dodger organization and has had some good (and bad) years for the White Sox.
