Sox get Freddy!

Re: Sox get Freddy!

The Twins beat the A's in a 5 game series in 2002 before losing to the eventual champion Anaheim Angels. That's something. Winning the division, winning a first round series and playing for the right to go to the World Series. Those are accomplishments that the White Sox don't have on their resume. In 2003 we beat White Sox for the division title. That's something, isn't it? The Sox couldn't manage to win the division, but the Twins did.

The Sox have the odds in their favor this year. Big payroll. Loaded line-up. Deep pitching staff. We'll see if the genius of Ozzie Guillen is all that it's cracked up to be. Anything less than the division title is complete failure. Again.

So far they've accomplished exactly nothing.

Just like I told a Cubs fan, you don't win a pennant for winning the first round of a playoff series OR almost going to the World Series. You win a pennant for winning the following:
1. Division
2. League
3. World Series
I give you guys credit, you've been kicking our asses for 3 years now and the division title count in the last 10 years is White Sox-1(2000) and Twins-2(2002,2003) and that's all that it boils down to. So if we win it this year it's tied.
This year it's going to be different because this year we don't have 'Sleepy' Manuel in the dugout.

They haven't been kicking OUR asses for the last 3 years, we have held our own against them. It's not like we are a [censored] organization, we won the division 4 years ago, and have been in contention every year since.

OK. Maybe they haven't been 'kicking our asses' but they have had our number for the past 3 years.

Believe me, I'm a big White Sox fan and we haven't been able to re-gain the division since 2000 and it's because of the Twins. Like I said, I'm a White Sox fan BUT facts are facts and I'm a realist....I let the Cubs fans live there fantansies

Thanks to tbuck and all his wisdom I now know that Twins fans also love to live in fantasy world. Not to mention a world where the past is the only thing to look at.

Re: Sox get Freddy!

You can put it on the board...YES!!!

Koskie hits a homer to tie the game @ 5 in the bottom of the 6th.

Freddy has given up 3 homers so far.
