so i began writing about wednesday’s game and how i just love when the sox score a bunch of runs in the first inning setting a precedent for the rest of the game. and really, while i enjoy a good nail biter i occasionally like to just see a game i know we are going to win.
i have to admit i was a little nervous about contreras starting. he has been a bit inconsistent the last couple of seasons, but i am so glad he had a good outing. i needed to see him have a good game. he had his velocity up in the mid-90s and he was making his pitches. he was also not shaking off pitches and he got in his groove.
but overall i am loving how the white sox are playing right now. i love the defense. i am extremely glad to have crede back out on 3rd. i’m telling you - it was painful to see fields and other randoms miss balls that we all knew crede woulda had. and mr. clutch has also made a huge difference on runs scored and batted in, obviously. not only that but i get to wear my pink crede shirt to the games again! bonus!
keep it up white sox! maybe we will get to see our Sox-Cubs world series yet! it’s early, i know, but anything is possible!
