Game 55 - White Sox vs. Rays

Another Game, Another Hero.
Clifford hit a walk off homerun! He’s not a big red dog, but he’s large and he can wail. Rays win! Final score Chicago 1 - Tampa 2!
Mr. Maddon must have got my memo since he went back to my preferred line-up. Now if only he would give Ruggiano a chance.
James Shields is such a trooper. Last time out he didn’t have great stuff but pitched eight innings anyway. He was off again tonight, but he kept going after them, and he kept his team in the game. I dig that about him. He really only made one big mistake and that was to a guy that nobody knows how to pitch to anyway. Oh, and his wife is really cute too.
The relief corps did their jobs, when any slight mistake could have cost the Rays the game. Excellent work men.
BJ Upton is looking great at the plate right now. He’s the guy I want up there in the big situations.
Pena is not the guy I want up there right now. He had two more strikeouts tonight in key situations.
Aki had a couple hits tonight. He’s really stepping it up.
The defense was excellent again. Couple huge double plays. The only blip was the fly ball they let drop in short center, but BJ was able to make a play at second anyway for the third out. Nice job by Longo to be covering there, or as Magrane called him “Johnny on the spot.”
The big guy deserves three beers cheers for creaming that fast ball to center, and leveling the series with one swing of the bat!
Let’s hope Kazmir can keep it going tomorrow! Go Rays!!

Seems like you’d know I was kidding, but just in case: I was kidding. Keep up the stellar work. Stellar is a bit under used these days, I’d say.

Thank you sir, and I would have assumed you were kidding. Although you know what they say about assuming.
