More Sox in the World Series
category: trends
I watched the first two games of the World Series. It was more than a thrill to watch a Chicago team do something other than fall on their faces. Chicago is deservedly famous for teams that screw up at the eleventh hour. I was sadly sure the Sox would screw up somehow, but they didn't.
Things looked more than great when Konerko hit his grand slam. I thought the Sox had it in the bag then. I was scared when the Astros made what looked like their comeback. The greatest moment came with Podsednik's game-winning home run. When the going got tough, Scott was a slugger.
I can live with whatever happens now. They have made it this far, and they have won two good games. If they start losing, they will have to come back to Chicago for the final moment. Strangely, I think it would be easier for me to see them fall at home. Whatever happens, they have made it this far.
