after yesterday’s win to complete the sweep of the pirates i’m ready for the classic! let’s re-cap yesterday a bit, huh? so i’m sitting in my seat baking in the sun grumpy about the man next to me touching my arm and the fact that of all people Pablo Ozuna is out there playing third instead of my Joe Crede! now anyone who knows me knows how i don’t really like when Pablo Ozuna gets in the game unless he’s stealing a base. he doesn’t play third all that well, and of course i don’t like the regulars to have many breaks because i like my guys. anyway, he hot dogs a throw that would have been an easy out #3 and creates HELL for Gavin Floyd. floyd can’t calm down until 6 runs score! all after 2 outs!
anyway, the Sox came back at the bottom of that second inning and scored 6 as well! the park was electric. it actually gave me goosebumps! i was so proud of the Sox for not giving up. i was also proud of the fans for not booing ozuna. everyone knows that on the other side of town they would have been booing their player in a second!
So, after coming back to tie it up with 6 runs and then going on to win and sweep the Pirates i am super ready for this weekend and next!
OH, and on a side note i feel like i must say that i was disappointed last Sunday when we played the Rockies at one of our fans. the rockies hit a homer, and the fan threw back the ball. first of all i really don’t like when people do that, especially at Comiskullar. we are not cub fans (and they do it and that’s fine - to each his own), but even when they do throw it back no one gets to take back the runs. i’m just sayin-it’s kinda pointless to me.
