The Marlins were not the only team that helped the San Diego Padres inch closer to clinching a postseason berth on Saturday night. The White Sox offered their own help as the Chicago club lost, 5-2.
I started reading Moneyball this week, so I took the opportunity to watch a meaningless White Sox game and get some pages in. The evening started on page 56 of the Michael Lewis tome. Elvis Andrus decided he wasn’t going to let me get a sentence in before hitting a 442-foot solo home run to start the game.
