Button Up

The baseball gods have been smiling down on the White Sox the last few days.  They have even turned the Braves uniforms into White Sox supporters.  I watch way too much baseball, and I have never seen this occur.  I think it would have been great if he realized what happened and did a mad dash to 1st base, finishing off the play with a belly flop to tag the base. Why didn’t Conrad just unbutton his shirt and take the ball out, why did he have to roll it up his chest and then dig to get it??  All this does is make me laugh at his misfortune even more.

The White Sox have now won 7 games in a row, all against the National League.  This makes me wonder if the White Sox should file a petition to officially change leagues. More importantly, they have cut the Twins 1st place lead to only 4.5 games, picking up 6 games in a week and a half.  Are there really going to be important baseball games in the late summer months?  Finally, is this good karma for a Chicago team to have a ball/puck get lost in a jersey.  Look at the good fortune that happened to the Blackhawks after this happened.
