Wild Koch dooms Sox
Tribune staff reporterIt's only three months into Ozzie Guillen's first season as a manager, but he already has bought into the prevailing thinking of big-league managers--you pitch your closer in the ninth inning of save situations no matter what. It doesn't matter if the...Tags: Basketball, Crimes, Joe Crede, Sports, John Olerud

Rays stop streaking Sox
Tribune staff reporterWhite Sox pitching dug too many holes Saturday night and this time the Sox's bats weren't big enough to keep lifting them out. The Sox's eight-game winning streak came to an end with a 10-6 loss to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, a defeat that cost the Sox a...Tags: Basketball, Jose Valentin, Rick White, Sports, Jerry Manuel

Diaz's fate up to Schoeneweis

Diaz yielded three runs on two home runs in Saturday's first inning,...Tags: Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Sammy Sosa, Todd Walker, Basketball, Juan Uribe

Sox rally with 5 in 9th
Tribune staff reporterMany among the crowd of 12,189 at U.S. Cellular Field made for the exits after the eighth inning Wednesday. That's a habit White Sox fans may have to break.

Twins play an encore
Tribune staff reporterThe biggest difference between the Minnesota Twins and the White Sox the last couple of seasons is simple: The Twins found ways to win games, and the Sox didn't. That was illustrated again Friday night when the Twins scored twice in the eighth inning...Tags: Jacque Jones, Doug Mientkiewicz, Jose Valentin, Minnesota, Cristian Guzman

Walk-through for Angels
Tribune staff reporterFriday evening at Comiskey Park started with Chicago legend Studs Terkel throwing out the ceremonial first pitch wearing a wool hat and a long red scarf. His toss landed just short of home plate, not bad for a 90-year-old man making his first start in 42-...Tags: Garret Anderson, Studs Terkel, Scott Spiezio, Paul Konerko, Sports

Cagey Colon tames Tigers
Tribune staff reporterIn the fourth inning, Bartolo Colon struck out one batter with a curveball, another on a tailing fastball and a third with an 83 m.p.h. changeup. Colon can still blow hitters away with a triple-digit heater, but now he's equally content to reach into his...Tags: D'Angelo Jimenez, Joe Crede, Craig Paquette, Billy Koch, Armando Rios

Sweet, sour taste for Sox
Tribune staff reporterFor a team so prodigious when it comes to hitting home runs, the White Sox are trying to perfect the diminishing art of "small ball." Manager Ozzie Guillen insists upon it. The Sox deployed four sacrifice bunts and Joe Crede's game-winning sacrifice fly...Tags: Frank Catalanotto, Juan Uribe, Joe Crede, Paul Konerko, Sports

Alomar delivers, Sox sweep
Tribune staff reporterSandy Alomar Jr. was a bit preoccupied when he heard that the White Sox needed him to pinch-hit in the 11th inning Thursday night. "I got caught off guard," he said. "I didn't remember they had [lefty] Graeme Lloyd, so I was in the [bathroom] when they...Tags: Tom Gordon, Carlos Beltran, Graeme Lloyd, Joe Crede, Paul Konerko

Sox move into 1st place
Tribune staff reporterFeeling "chills, lots of chills" from a wildly cheering, joyous crowd, left-hander Mark Buehrle propelled the White Sox into first place Friday night.

Bats shut down in loss
Tribune staff reporterThis isn't exactly what the White Sox had in mind to start the second half of the season. Hoping to put their troubles in Oakland behind them and put some distance between themselves and the Minnesota Twins, the Sox were shut down Thursday night in a 4-2...Tags: Basketball, Damian Miller, Barry Zito, Joe Crede, Paul Konerko

Bob Foltman on the Sox
I like the acquisition of Jose Contreras. If he continues to struggle as a starter though, I could see him becoming a very effective setup man, or if Shingo falters he could possibly be a closer. What are your thoughts? --Doug Levin, Lawrence, Kan. Doug,...Tags: Timo Perez, Jose Contreras, Carlos Delgado, Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs
