Sunshine was streaking all over the place, in theory, as the White Sox returned home after a four-game split against the Houston Trashcanners. The rotation was surprisingly solid and led by an inside-track Cy Young candidate, all were still healthy, rookie skipper Pedro Grifol held his own against the toothpick sagacity of Dusty Baker, and the offense packed wallop where it might be leaking efficiency — in fact leading all of baseball with 18 extra-base hits.
Now, literally, there was no sunshine at today’s White Sox home opener. It’s Chicago, it’s early April, are you kidding with this sunshine?
