As the White Sox continue to lose everyday, I'm reminded of my tenure as a sportswriter in Sterling. The Rock Falls High School football team was just terrible in those days. After a particularly horrific loss in Week 8 of the season, some enterprising reporter asked Rock Falls coach Ron McCord if any positives could be taken from the game.
McCord replied, "No injuries, one more week."
That's how I feel about this White Sox road trip. "No injuries, two more games." Don't care about the outcomes much anymore. The same can be said of this season. "No injuries, 29 more games."
As an aside, the White Sox are now 0-12 in the last 12 games Tony Pena has appeared in. Pena is so bad, in fact, that I don't even have a picture of him to put with this blog entry. The midseason trade to acquire Pena will not go down among GM Kenny Williams better efforts, to say the least. Dude is an arsonist.
