That Lee home run gave us a ton of momentum going into this game. As I said before, this series is the turning point of this season.

It really is true. Lee's homer took the pressure off the bullpen to win the game. With all the lead changes and shaky bullpen work lately, I know I wasn't comfortable with that two run lead. But Derrek comes on the field after his injury and puts all fears to rest against our hated rivals. If the season goes as we all hope it does, we'll look back at that homer as the catalyst.

Masket or w/e is going for the Sox tomorrow instead of Contreras.

CHICAGO -- The combination of Tuesday's rain-induced cancellation of a game against the Yankees and no off-days until this Thursday temporarily threw the White Sox starting rotation out of whack, with Sunday's series finale against the Cubs serving as the object of consternation.
Ozzie Guillen and his crew tossed around a number of different ideas to bridge the gap: bring back Jose Contreras or John Danks on three days' rest, call up Gio Gonzalez or Gavin Floyd from the Minors for one start, or bring in Nick Masset from the bullpen for a spot start.

For those of you in the Chicago area with a choice...choose Comcast today as the crappy Sox announcers will be on WGN. For those outside of Chicago and have to listen to WGN turn down the volume. MERCY

Not sure why they even put the Sox announcers on WGN since I don't think there is a big Sox fan base out of Illinois. The Cubs have a huge fan base out of Illinois so give us our announcers.

Yeah I know I actually hit remind for WGN & not the Comcast channel.
I expected the Cubs to defniitely be on WGN.. Weird.
When the Cubs get a decent size lead I'm going to switch over to the terrible announcers to hear there depressed voices.

When the Sox are losing they don't talk and it is pretty funny.
